A Time for Choosing

While listening to the Rush Limbaugh show today, I was reminded that this week marks the 45th anniversary of Ronald Reagan’s A Time for Choosing” speech, which he made on a number of occasions, during the 1964 U.S. presidential election campaign, on behalf of Republican candidate Barry Goldwater.

It was this speech that established Mr. Reagan, in the minds of many, as a living personification of the conservative viewpoint. Not surprisingly, his words are as fitting and important today as they were the first time he spoke them.

Keep it clean. If all you can do is call names or threaten retribution, It will be assumed by most readers that you are admitting that you have nothing intelligent or worth while to add to the conversation, and therefore are not worthy of paying attention too.
