Editor, Times-Union:
Did any of the rest of you get an urgent letter from Oliver North recently? I see Col. North using words that sound a bit unusual for him. The brave, fearless, patriotic, practical marine we’ve known for years seems really “shook up.” Where went our confidence, hopeful “hero”?

See what you all think:
“As I rush you this urgent letter, the United States in drowning in a sea of debt that threatens to collapse our dollar, wreck our economy and bankrupt our federal government.

Meanwhile, we have a weak and indecisive president in control of our national security and sovereignty at a time when...

...the Middle East is about to explode

...Red China, Russia, Iran, Pakistan, North Korea and more and more nations are becoming more hostile and dangerous to the United States by the minute

...our brave soldiers, sailors, airmen, special forces, guardsmen and marines are in harm’s way in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Bottom line? At a time when our nation is increasingly threatened by economic ruin at home and treacherous enemies abroad...

...can we continue to pay both homage and precious tax dollars to the socialist bureaucrats at the United Nations? I think the time has come to cut off funds to the United Nations ... and to even consider withdrawing from it altogether.”

So, what think ye, local patriots? Maybe I’ve not heard Oliver on TV lately, and should give him room to grow, as I’m sure many of us have had to do of late. Things move so fast these days it’s hard to keep up. But keeping up with “world history” that is being made all around us is a must for each of us. Our future and the future of our family is at stake. And I suspect next year’s election will probably be the most important one in the history of our nation. What a great time to be a true Christian “believer” in God, his plan, program and availability.
