Drews post, Let’s Put Air Shocks On The Bus, and Abraham Lincoln
H/T Macker for this.
Until Drew’s post yesterday, I had never heard of this guy. It’s so totally beyond the pale, as to be almost unbelievable. That it’s beyond reason goes without saying. I don’t get it. I don’t understand. I don’t accept this kind of public perversion, but then why not? Look at what passes for public entertainment these days. Look what passes for acceptable and normal behavior. Look what passes for art and talent. Look to the left and their values. Things are accepted today that at one time would have shamed people. But shame doesn’t seem to play a very large roll in public life anymore. And to be very, brutally honest, conservatives have not been able to stem the tide. Have we? And in our own defense I should also say we never really stood a chance of doing so. Because the enemy is, and no surprise is it? Us.
I did see the links Drew provided and he was right. Pretty damn sick stuff.
I had been going on about what I call our 5th column for so long, that even I got sick of it. Doesn’t make it less true though.
Which leads me to this. I found it in the preface to a book I read only in the last week. It is credited to Abraham Lincoln. I thought it fit.
“At what point shall we expect the approach of danger? By what means means shall we fortify against it? Shall we expect some trans-Atlantic military giant to step the ocean and crush us at a blow?
Never!
All the armies of Europe, Asia, and Africa combined ... could not by force, take a drink from the Ohio, or make a track on the Blue Ridge, in a trial of a thousand years.
At what point then is the appraoch of danger to be expected?
I answer, if it ever reach us, it must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we ourselves must be its author and finisher. As a nation of free men, we must live through all times, or die by suicide.”
Abraham Lincoln

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:
It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
- Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
- Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing

- Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

Oh, and here's some kind of visitor flag counter thingy. Hey, all the cool blogs have one, so I should too. The Visitors Online thingy up at the top doesn't count anything, but it looks neat. It had better, since I paid actual money for it.
