Keep the Republic

A blog dedicated to expressing faith in God, hope in America, and a conviction to preserve the principles on which the nation was founded. Benjamin Franklin, after the conclusion of the Constitutional Convention, was asked by a concerned citizen of Philadelphia what type of government had been created after four months of closed-door meetings by the delegates; he responded, "A republic, if you can keep it."

Who the terrorists want to win

I hardly think that the Kerry campaign is welcoming this "endorsement" today:

"Leaders and supporters of the anti-U.S. insurgency [in Iraq] say their attacks in recent weeks have a clear objective: The greater the violence, the greater the chances that President Bush will be defeated on Tuesday and the Americans will go home.

"'If the U.S. Army suffered numerous humiliating losses, [Democratic presidential nominee Sen. John] Kerry would emerge as the superman of the American people,' said Mohammad Amin Bashar, a leader of the Muslim Scholars Association, a hard-line clerical group that vocally supports the resistance.

"Resistance leader Abu Jalal boasted that the mounting violence had already hurt Mr. Bush's chances.

"'American elections and Iraq are linked tightly together,' he told a Fallujah-based Iraqi reporter. 'We've got to work to change the election, and we've done so. With our strikes, we've dragged Bush into the mud.'"

Could our choice now be any clearer?
