A portion of a letter from a cadet who has it right....
I have a message for Senator Harry Reid, a message from the pastthat is heard in the wailing and groaning of our founders turning intheir graves:"Contemplate the mangled bodies of your countrymen, andthen say, 'What should be the reward of such sacrifices?' Bid us and ourposterity bow the knee, supplicate the friendship, and plough, and sow,and reap, to glut the avarice of the men who have let loose on us thedogs of war to riot in our blood and hunt us from the face of the earth?If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude thanthe animating contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not yourcounsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. Mayyour chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye wereour countrymen!" - Samuel Adams
Behold a man of virtue, worthy of the office Senator Reid disgraces.
