“A FOND FAREWELL”
by John Porter, ©2020
(Oct. 23, 2020) — Early voting began at 8 a.m. in my home town of Harrison, Arkansas on October 19. I cast my vote for President Donald Trump, who, in my opinion, is the last best chance we have of saving us from a Socialist state and remaining a Constitutional Republic of Individual Freedom.
As many of you know, for over 15 years I’ve been writing to thousands of people all across America battling Socialism and the evils of Islamic Muslim terrorists.
I’m now approaching 82 years of age. I feel that I have run my race. I have fought the good fight. I have done my utmost to do it with all honesty and integrity.
I have made the decision to retire from the rigors of political battle to a time for personal growth which, as someone said, “becomes the path for greater personal freedom.”
Even after all my writing experience, I cannot find the proper words to express the undying gratitude and affection I have developed for all of you who have joined with me in this never-ending battle to keep us free from becoming slaves to an all-powerful Federal Government. A special thank-you to Kathleen Dynan, who has made tremendous contributions to our fight.
So, with all the love a heart can hold, good wishes and prayer, I bid you all a fond farewell, and as General Douglas MacArthur said, “Old soldiers never die, they just fade away.”
Goodbye and God bless.
P.S. What a stellar debate performance by our president last night…WOW!
John: Bravo Zulu!
GOD BLESS….
Apropos and succinct defined, Mr. Porter. Thank you for fighting the good fight and may the Good Lord accompany you along your path to personal freedom.
During the past decade, I have been a volunteer representative for a non-profit organization whose mission is honoring and remembering the sacrifices of our military fallen heroes and their families — the latter whose only request is that we, individually and collectively as a nation, never forget.
As a 77 year old “Army Brat”, Vietnam Veteran, comforter to Gold Star families and frequent comment poster here at The Post & Email, I too have fought the good fight and am not long to begin my journey to personal freedom.
“America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.” — Abraham Lincoln
“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.” — Ronald Reagan
Last Thursday’s debate made what’s at stake in this election as clear as clear can be:
Trump-Pence = “We the people…”
Biden-Harris = “We the government…”
As the founder of the non-profit organization I represent is prone to say,
Blessings one and all.
PS: RIP “Man In Black”
John Porter: Thank you for your magnificent contributions to the fight to maintain freedom. May another famous John(ny) send you on your way in style via train to your next destination.
