A LESSON IN HOW TO FIGHT EVEN WHEN ALL SEEMS LOST

If you reading this you are now part of the resistance.

A lot of what I write about is a time in history when we had to stand and fight for not only what we thought was right but, what the world thought was right. The message today is one that was given to us by the men that fought and died in a little town in Belgian called Bastogne. For those of you that do not know this story, the 101st Airborne division was pushed into Bastogne to slow what was known as the battle of the bulge. The division was surrounded and cut off but, yet the held.

The question is why would this mean anything to us today and why do you think we should listen to this. I think that when we have forgotten the past and what has come before most of us, we then forget what the future meant to those who lost their lives.

When the Germans had surrounded the embattled Americans their commander sent a message to the commanding General of the 101st Gen. McAuliffe requesting the honorable surrender of the American. General McAuliffe’s response was “NUTS”. The commander of 327 GIR interpreted it to the German truce party as “go to hell”.


What is the message hear? It is that even in time of most despair out numbered and no winter clothing, these men pulled together to fight with each other and for each other. In our country today we still have men and women that will serve our country in much the same way yet, we that are not in the military have forgotten how to fight. The real thing to learn is that we cannot just give up and say well that is the way it is. We cannot just say well they are going to win so why try. No we must look for a very clear message, one that they (and I mean both parties) could not see coming. The time is now and we must take a real stand for “we the people” and use you vote to write in a real person.


It can be done if we start now to show the rest of our country that we do not need the politics of the old way and we do not need the party faithful tell us that we would be waste our vote. Really over time have we become stronger? Have we gained more than we have lost? Have we seen a government that really works for us? Well I say “NUTS”.


So I ask you my fellow American to join me in the fight at “I am the resistance 2010” I ask that you think about what we can do with our vote and why it was so important that we had been given it. That we make one loud and clear stand and write in the vote or look to the outside of the parties for a real person some one that will take the job not because of power, but because it is the right thing to do. Sometimes it only takes one person to change the world in which we live. Please do not allow the real dream of this nation to be laid to rest without a real fight. Find people tell others and write in your vote. The message we send will tell the world that we are one country that believes in the people not the government.
