I need a transcript of that speech.

Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
—Patrick Henry

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster

you should be on your knees every day of your life thanking God that there were some men - SOME MEN - who held a job. And they required a dedication to purpose, a love of country and a dedication to duty that was more important than life itself. And their self sacrifice is what made this country f***ing possible.....

Countless people have forgotten that..... and this is why we are on the precipice of implosion. Stop "weeping for our country". Get up on your feet and stop the systematic dismantling of our great nation before it is too late.

Your request.....

 Sen. Metzenbaum to Sen. Glenn: "How can you run for Senate when you have never held a real job?"

Sen. Glenn: "I served 23 years in the United States Marine Corps. I served through two wars. I flew 149 missions. My plane was hit by antiaircraft fire on 12 different occasions. I was in the space program. It wasn't my checkbook; it was my life on the line. It was not a nine to five job where I took time off to take the daily cash receipts to the bank.

I ask you to go with me....as I went the other day to a Veterans hospital and look at those men with their mangled bodies in the eye and tell them they didn't hold a job. You go with me to the space program and go as I have gone to the widows and orphans of Ed White, Gus Grissom and Roger Chaffee and you look those kids in the eye and tell them that their dad didn't hold a job.

You go with me on Memorial Day, coming up, and you stand in Arlington National Cemetery, where I have more friends than I'd like to remember and you watch those waving flags. You stand there, and you think about this nation, and you tell me that those people didn't have a job, I'll tell you, Howard Metzenbaum, you should be on your knees every day of your life thanking God that there were some men - SOME MEN - who held a job. And they required a dedication to purpose, a love of country and a dedication to duty that was more important than life itself. And their self sacrifice is what made this country possible..... I HAVE HELD A JOB, HOWARD! What about you?"

Yes, thank you Haz.

Now I need to find the Hazarita recipe again...something else to drink to.

HAZARITAS

6oz of frozen Lime Aid concentrate.  Do not mix … just take the 6oz. and dump it in a blender

6oz. of your favorite tequila

6oz. of beer (pilsners or “light” beers work best)

3oz. of really cheap white wine (if real sweet wine use a little less).

Add ice and blend NOTE: I hold back the beer, blend then add the beer and just 'pulse' a few times to mix.  This keeps the foam down. (Taste great “on the rocks”.  However, keep in mind that they are a little more powerful given the lack of blended ice)  

DO NOT handle firearms, fly airplanes or operate machinery heavier than your blender.  To that, after three pitchers I sincerely recommend that you don't operate anything that runs on electricity. After five pitchers, you will be functionally illiterate.
DO NOT make any attempt to sing or dance because you will look pathetically stupid doing such.
DO NOT call me for bail money.    



Anything else ya need, Solus?? ;)  ;D

When I was interviewing for a job at GM I only had the army as my job history. This b*tch asked me if I ever had a REAL job. I  told her it was a real job and I wanted to give her an earful but I shut up and got the job.
""It may be laid down as a primary position, and the basis of our system, that every Citizen who enjoys the protection of a free Government, owes not only a proportion of his property, but even his personal services to the defence of it, and consequently that the Citizens of America (with a few legal and official exceptions) from 18 to 50 Years of Age should be borne on the Militia Rolls, provided with uniform Arms, and so far accustomed to the use of them, that the Total strength of the Country might be called forth at a Short Notice on any very interesting Emergency." - George Washington.
