ChristmasA Merry Christmas to all -- even to the modern-day Pontius Pilates at the ACLU who waste millions of taxpayers' dollars persecuting Christians and perverting the meaning of the
Establishment Clause.
'Inevitable Triumph'Always will we remember the character of the onslaught against us. No matter how long it may take us to overcome this premeditated invasion, the American people in their righteous might will win through to absolute victory.
I believe I interpret the will of the Congress and of the people when I assert that we will not only defend ourselves to the uttermost, but will make very certain that this form of treachery shall never endanger us again.
Hostilities exist. There is no blinking at the fact that our people, our territory and our interests are in grave danger.
With confidence in our armed forces - with the unbounding determination of our people - we will gain the inevitable triumph - so help us God. -- President Franklin D. Roosevelt, in a
speech to Congress the day after Japan attacked Pearl Harbor, December 8, 1941
Hard to believe such brave and patriotic sentiments came from the mouth of a Democrat. But this was over 60 years ago -- when most Democrats weren't traitors.
