Morale Is Low

I received the following e-mail a short time ago from a fellow conservative blogger and a dear friend in the blogosphere. She is quite depressed about the election as you can see from her correspondence below. I had noticed that she hasn’t been posting much in the last week and was starting to get concerned. Today’s e-mail clarified it for me and I decided it was time to ‘splain to her and all the troops what this war is all about.

Needless to say, the name of the blogger has been changed to protect the innocent ... and no, don’t even ask me to give up her real name. Some of you feel the same way and I’m damn sick and tired of hearing this defeatist bullshit. Read my reply and then get off your ass ....

Dear Betty,

Let me quote for you the words of Marine Corps General Chesty Puller when he found his troops surrounded at Chosin Reservoir during the Korean War: “So they’ve got us surrounded, good! Now we can fire in any direction, those bastards won’t get away this time!”

For six years you and I and many other conservative bloggers have been in the unenviable position of constantly defending “the gang that couldn’t shoot straight”, i.e. RINO’s who spent wildly, indulged in porkbarrel greed, took bribes from lobbyists and finally got us into Iraq with absolutely no plan for what to do with that country after we beat the shit out of Saddam’s army and took over the place.

Last week’s election was the best thing that could happen to all of us, the RINO’s and the bloggers who defended them. Now, we bloggers get to play offense for a change. We get to watch the Democrats as they now have a chance to “put up or shut up”. Of course they have no plan and are already proceeding to shove their foots in their mouths at every opportunity.

Voters didn’t vote for Democrats as much as they voted against Republicans disguised as conservatives. Conservative bloggers now have an opportunity to sink our teeth into the Liberals and Leftists’ asses in the Democratic Party with a vengeance. For six years they whined, carped, complained, moaned, bitched and did everything in their power to get in the way of any sort of progress in health care, border security, the war on terrorism, social security, education, etc. Now, it’s our turn. The shoe is on the other foot and we can have immeasurable fun poking the Democrats in the eye and asking, “So ... now you have the power. Fix what you’ve been complaining about. Show us what you’ve got.”

You already know what the answer will be. Nothing. This is going to be like shooting fish in a barrel, sweetie! We are surrounded by Leftists on all sides. We have them right where we want them. So get off your (cute) butt and pick up a rifle, soldier. Start firing in any direction. You’re bound to hit a Moonbat no matter where you aim for the next two glorious years.

To paraphrase General Patton, “We’re going to kick the Leftist in the ass and we’re going to keep kicking him in the ass all the way back to Hollywood and Massachusetts!”

All the election did was change the strategy. We’re now the underdogs and we’re on the attack! Screw the RINO’s! This blog war is now about saving America. No more defending idiots who were supposed to be in our camp. Now we can concentrate all of our firepower on the real enemy.

So don’t let me hear any more of this defeatist whining. The more you whine and feel like giving in, the louder will be the derision and laughter from DailyKOS, Democratic Underground, MoveOn.org and Huffington Post. They want you to roll over and give up. They think you’re weak and all wrong. Are you going to sit there and tell me they’re right?

BAH! I thought you had a pair, soldier. Maybe you would be better off blogging about interior decorating. After all, frilly lace doilies don’t fight back.

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:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

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.
