"PRAISE THE LORD AND PASS THE AMMUNITION"

        We are now in the midst of the primaries where WE chose the candidates who will run for office in November.

        The most commonly given reason for not voting is lack of time.  But how does one know what the candidates stand for so one may vote wisely?  

        Lots of places to ask, but try:  Project Votesmart or WLO's Women's Voting Guide.

        Republicans are ecstatic.  "This is our year to gain the seats we need to overturn the President's vetoes.  Women have lost faith in the President and his Party, so they will stay home from the polls in protest."

        We wanted to write some inspirational phrases in this article so that all of you would round up friends and relatives and encourage them to vote.

        The phrases came alright, but from a surprising source!  Tracey, whose organization was given as "drudgereport.com," supplied them via e-mail.  Thank you, Tracey.

        We received her posts below (and her reply to our response).  We offer them to you as a representation of the voice of those who WILL vote, and of the attitudes of the candidates they will vote for.

        Here is our future -- unless WE take the TIME to prevent it:

        Oh, by the way....one of our major goals is to respect unborn babies opinions on life.  

        Since they are unable to answer the question as to whether or not they should be killed by the evil abortonist, we will do all that we can to give them a chance to grow up a little.  

        When they are able to talk and reason, the mother will be allowed to ask the child if he or she would not mind being aborted now.

        Ahhhhhh, we've alomost got your favorite felon!  He's broken so many laws so often, but finally, he lied under oath which allowed us to hang him out to dry.  What a joy!

        Liberalism is almost crushed once again.  And, after we destroy wacko environmentalist, Al Gore, the Democratic party will be dead for years to come.  Today, liberals have not yet realized our level of victory over their evil plans for America which included socialism and communism, and the dismantaling of various constitutional rights.

        But, we have won again because liberals have no character.

        Praise the Lord!

        Are you confused by your Christianity?  Attitudes as demonstrated by your words:  hang him; crushed;  destroy;  waco;  dead.  You show such reverence for life in your first post, "You."

        Do you realize that after you do in the President and V.P. Gore, we get Speaker of the House, Newtie for Prez?

      • Newtie, who admittedly received oral sex (while still married) from his girlfriends in his Congressional office and claimed it wasn't adultery because it wasn't really sex.

      • Newtie, who divorced his wife while she was in the hospital sick with CANCER.

      • Newtie who was prohibited by Congress from engaging in consultation with others in the leadership but was caught talking to them on his cell phone and recorded.

      • Newtie who tried and failed to get away with stealing money through his illegal PAC.

        Crush the CLinton admin; destroy the socialist democratic party; destroy it until it is dead. Remove clinton from office.  We cannot, and will not tolerate perjury from any elected official, especially the president.

        Praise the Lord!

        We may not like what Tracey wrote or what she believes, but one thing we know for sure is that she WILL vote and she WILL go after her friends and relatives to get them to vote for her kind of government.

        Her voice is the voice of those who will be elected to our governmental offices UNLESS WE SHOW UP AT THE POLLS, INFORMED AND READY TO VOTE FOR THOSE CANDIDATES WHO WILL UPHOLD WOMEN'S REPRODUCTIVE FREEDOM.

        "Praise The Lord and Pass the Ammunition" is an old song from World War II.

        The last two lines are:
        "Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition and we'll all stay free."

        OUR AMMUNITION IS OUR BALLOTS AND OUR TIME.
