| Howdy all! Well, those of us in Washington State had a rare treat. We got to be like Iowa. No, not really. This is the first caucus I'd ever been involved with. The process we had inside was definitely not the best, but it was the best rookies could do. Now for enthusiasm, I would rank that as high as Iowa or even higher. In Benton County alone, we had so many people show up, they weren't ready for us. It seemed like there were as many turned away for arriving too late as there was inside. And the place was packed. What a great experience. Even got elected as a delegate alternate. Any hoo,.. Joyful are people of integrity, who follow the instructions of the Lord. ~ Psalm 119:1 We have therefore to resolve to conquer or die: Our won country's honor, all call upon us for vigorous and manly exertion, and if we now shamefully fail, we shall become infamous to the whole world. Let us therefore rely upon the goodness of the cause, and the aid of the Supreme Being, in whose hands victory is, to animate and encourage us to great and noble actions. ~ George Washington, 1776 So, I am certain we all know what George was talking about in 1776, having the resolve to conquer or die. They were going to conquer, or die! Now this is not 1776. But we are still called upon for vigorous and manly exertion. And it is true, that if we fail, we shall become infamous to the entire world. So, our effort to restore our Constitution, repair the damage to our economy, and work to shrink the size of our obscenely humungous government must continue. We must rely upon each other; upon the goodness of each other, to strengthen the goodness of the cause. We need to do this with the joy of people with great integrity, following the instructions and aid given us by our Creator. My experience at the caucus taught me a great lesson. It is important to make the best choice to be the next top federally elected employee. And that puts us all in the position this primary season to choose someone that the next person doesn't choose. But when it is all said and done, we must all realize that the goal is: restore the Constitution, reduce the government, eliminate Obamacare, eliminate the onerous regulations strangling our economy, restore the strength of our military so NO ONE dares attack us again without the knowledge that we will eliminate them, and not apologize to them. Whoever gains the title of GOP candidate for President must know that we will be watching him closer and be more critical of him (or her) than we are of Obama. We do this in His name, who animates us and encourages us to great and noble actions. Take care, God bless, AND STAND WITH ISRAEL!! Tom Kiley |
