For The Sake Of Peace

If We've Learned Any Lessons During The Past Few Decades, Perhaps The Most Important Is That Preservation Of Our Environment Is Not A Partisan Challenge; It's Common Sense. Our Physical Health, Our Social Happiness, And Our Economic Well-being Will Be Sustained Only By All Of Us Working In Partnership As Thoughtful, Effective Stewards Of Our Natural Resources.

The Founders Of The United Nations Sought To Replace A World At War With A World Of Civilized Order. They Hoped That A World Of Relentless Conflict Would Give Way To A New Era, One Where Freedom From Violence Prevailed.... But The Awful Truth Is That The Use Of Violence For Political Gain Has Become More, Not Less, Widespread In The Last Decade.

For Us To Ignore By Inaction The Slaughter Of American Civilians And American Soldiers, Whether In Nightclubs Or Airline Terminals, Is Simply Not In The American Tradition. Self-defense Is Not Only Our Right, It Is Our Duty.

I Was 21 And Looking For Work In 1932, One Of The Worst Years Of The Great Depression. And I Can Remember One Bleak Night In The Thirties When My Father Learned On Christmas Eve That He'd Lost His Job. To Be Young In My Generation Was To Feel That Your Future Had Been Mortgaged Out From Under You, And That's A Tragic Mistake We Must Never Allow Our Leaders To Make Again.
