Fight for freedom

As we approach the midterm elections please consider the following 3 quotes by Winston Churchill:


Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
One ought never to turn ones back on a threatened danger and try to run away from it. If you do that, you will double the danger. But if you meet it promptly and without flinching, you will reduce the danger by half. Never run away from anything. Never!
If you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a small chance of survival. There may even be a worse case: you may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.
Churchill helped convince a nation threatened with annihilation that they could fight and win. Today those of us who cherish freedom must convince our fellow citizens to fight against the dark forces of totalitarianism and socialism. Rise up and vote!
