"The preservation of the sacred fire of liberty and the destiny of the republican model of government are justly considered... deeply, ...finally, staked on the experiment entrusted to the hands of the American people." - George Washington, First Inaugural Address


Fallout From a Kerry Presidency

By Christopher G. Adamo

Has America thoroughly pondered the grim consequences, if the total lack of respect that John Kerry engenders is eventually projected upon an entire nation that would elect him president? It is true that the race for the White House is close, but those who contend that this has resulted from a groundswell of enthusiasm for the Massachusetts Senator are either deluded or engaging in deceit.

Just what portion of Kerry's agenda can be honestly claimed to inspire voters? Hunting trips and frequent visits to Church are not relevant since they rarely occurred outside of the election season. Furthermore, his voting record, as it pertains to the Second Amendment and issues of concern to America 's Christians, is abysmal.

Consequently, the legitimate focus must remain on those things that he has consistently supported in word and action over the years. And that isn't much.

Worse yet, those few issues to which he has steadfastly remained loyal are invariably set against the pallid blue backdrop of the United Nations flag, proving an unwavering antipathy towards the national sovereignty and heritage of the country he claims to want to lead.

His answer to all of America 's foreign relations problems, including the annoying “nuisance” of mass murder by Islamic terrorists is: Run to the United Nations and put them in charge of looking out for us. Despite the abject inefficacy of that organization, a greater concern should be how it could be expected to react to an America that proves, by its endorsement of constant backtracking and denials from its own leader, a willingness to accept platitudes and rhetoric in lieu of decisive action to protect its interests.

An America that would stoop to the point of electing John Kerry is an America that is not worthy of respect from the rest of the world, and under such conditions will certainly receive none. The nation slumped to these depths once before, when it chose the empty pandering and slippery excuses of a pathological liar by the election of Bill Clinton. It was during his eight years as president that the mortal enemies of America saw their opportunity to metastasize, striking on an ever-increasing scale with impunity prior to 9-11.

Certainly Kerry provokes no more fear of real reprisal than did Bill Clinton. And like Clinton , Kerry believes that any slick excuse will serve to get him off of the “hot seat,” for the present moment, regardless of negative consequences that will undoubtedly befall the country at some point down the road.

By now it should be glaringly obvious that Kerry's only hope for winning this election is a combination of outlandish and fraudulent attacks against his opponent, accompanied by the ominous suppression of truthful rebuttals from his opposition. It was just such shameless posturing and antics that led conservatives to predict, with nearly absolute certainty, that an “October Surprise,” would be concocted to discredit the President during the final days of the campaign.

Now it is learned that the chief UN arms inspector, who goes by the name of “Mohamed,” has collaborated with the New York Times and CBS to release the bogus “missing munitions” story. It doesn't require an Iranian rocket scientist to figure out where his loyalties lie.

As was the case with the forged memos, CBS once again shows its own intention to be something other than a news agency. For if the network truly considered the story to be breaking news of great concern to Americans, it would have aired it immediately. By holding off for its intended Sunday night “60 Minutes” broadcast, it proved its objective to be the revelation of a last-minute “bombshell,” with maximum impact on the election.

The calamitous “hay” being made by the Kerry campaign over the concocted story of missing explosives shows once again (as if any new evidence is needed) Kerry's willingness to say anything, whether stirringly patriotic or blatantly treasonous, for the expediency of the moment. And despite the ability of such words to excite or mollify a disgracefully compliant press, what possible reaction, other than an erosion of America 's credibility, can be expected from the “allies” to whom Kerry so often defers?

Contrary to his assertions, those “allies,” are no real friends of his. What they are, in reality, is supportive of any person or any cause, which will weaken America 's standing on the world scene. Clearly, these nations see him as someone who will have just such an impact on the nation.


Growing up during the turbulent decades of the ‘60's and ‘70's, Christopher  Adamo saw, to his dismay, the nation's moral foundations being destroyed  before his very eyes. But even then he was a staunch Conservative at heart,  and rejected outright the tenets of America's counterculture revolution.

 After a hitch in the Air Force, where he specialized in airborne  electro- optical systems, he pursued a career in the field of aerospace,  working for major defense contractors in California, Florida, and Colorado. But his career plans abruptly changed during the industry-wide downsizing that followed the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster.

Presently he is working in the field of industrial instrumentation in the state of Wyoming. Concurrently, he has become involved in that state's political process, attending state GOP conventions as a delegate, and serving as a member of the Wyoming Republican Central Committee. He has also aided in the candidacies of local legislators and state senators, as well as a U.S. Senator and Congresswoman.

From 1993 to 1996, he edited and wrote for “The Wyoming Christian”, the state newsletter for Christian Coalition of Wyoming. During that period, he developed an acute awareness of the harm being done to Conservatism by liberal activists within the Republican Party as well as the Democrats. This remains a favorite theme of his articles, which now appear as a regular feature on GOPUSA.
