We have before us an ordeal of the most grievous kind. We have before us many, many long months of struggle and of suffering.
You ask, what is our policy? I say it is to wage war by land, sea, and air. War with all our might and with all the strength God can give us, to wage war against a monstrous tyranny never surpassed in the dark and lamentable catalogue of human crime. That is our policy.
You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word. It is victory. Victory at all costs - Victory in spite of all terrors - Victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival.
Harrison gets no respect frrom the press!
I heard the news of Powers death reported on WNYC, and on at least one tv station, where it quoted the response of his "Likely Democratic Opponent" Michael McMahon. If you heard those reports you would get the impression McMahon is running unopposed in the primary. They do not even consider Steve Harrison's name worth mentioning, let alone calling him as well to get a quote on Powers' unfortunate passing. It is as if the press and the DCCC has decided who the Democratic party's nominee is already. McMahon has been anointed, and there isn't a damn thing Harrison can do about it.
I am sorry to hear about Powers passing btw. RIP. I wonder if this actually gets Curtis Sliwa into the race.
