TOP 10 PATRIOTS OF 2007:
1. United States Military -
They are the ones doing the fighting, so they get the #1 spot ahead of Patraeus and Bush.
2. George Bush - President of the United States
According to the Democrats, the war on terror has made us less safe,
yet we have gone six years and four months without a terrorist attack.
We have captured or killed more terrorists during Bush's war on terror
than Clinton did during his entire term. We have arrested more
suspected terrorists inside our own country thanks to Bush's PATRIOT
ACT than Clinton did during his entire term. If Hillary Clinton
continues to be aggressive against terrorism, continues the PATRIOT
ACT, and keeps America safe...she will be a top patriot of 2008.
3. David Patraeus - Military General
David Patraeus orchestrated the troops surge in Iraq that is now
working. Compared to a year ago, civilian deaths are down 84%, suicide
attacks are down 80%, and U.S. military deaths are down 65%. Those are
successful numbers in Iraq, and successful numbers in Iraq have an
inverse relationship to Harry Reid's approval rating.
4. Bill O'Reilly - Political commentator
In 2007, Bill O'Reilly led a charge against the ACLU and the
liberal agenda in public schools. His efforts even led to a defeat for
the ACLU in a court and one ranting, atheist teacher to be fired. He
is taking over for Pat Buchanan as America's next true culture
warrior. He also made a trip over to Iraq to visit the troops.
5. Bill Gates - CEO Microsoft
Bill Gates has donated over $29 billion to organizations and
charities for various causes. His philanthropy has even led to Warren
Buffet to pledge up to $1.5 billion a year in stocks to the Bill and
Melinda Gates foundation. He's a member of the wrong party, but
there's still a big difference between him and John Edwards. John
Edwards talks about helping the poor and gets $400 haircuts. Bill
Gates stays mostly out of the public light while giving his billions to
charities.
6. Robin Williams - Comedian/Actor
While Hollywood was badmouthing America, our military, and the Iraq
war, Robin Williams was visiting the troops in Iraq. Before it was
popular for Hollywood stars to visit the troops, Robin Williams had
already been there four times. He's a democrat, strongly against the
war, and yet he puts the troops ahead of what's "politically correct"
in Hollywood. He has led the way for more and more celebrities to make
the trip over to Iraq.
7. Joe Lieberman - Democrat/Independent Senator
Joe Lieberman crossed party lines and endorsed Republican John
McCain for President because of his belief that the war in Iraq is
making America safer. He has consistently supported the war on terror,
America's alliance with Israel, and the PATRIOT ACT.
8. Phyllis Schlafly - Political Activist
In 2007, Phyllis stepped up her efforts to preserve social
conservatism. As a strong anti-feminist, she has made her goal in the
past few years to limit pornography on television in movies and stand
up for Christian rights in schools and public education. At 83 years
old, she is definitely one woman who was born during the "women's right
to vote" days but does NOT want to live to see the day Hillary is in
the White House.
9. Nicolas Sarkozy - President of France
The conservative revolution in France has begun. The years of
anti-American and pro-socialist policies of former French presidents is
gone. In one of his first speeches as president of France, Sarkozy
praised America for being the "greatest nation in the world" and one
that should be the model for the rest of the world. He praised America
for leading the world in the war on terror and being a model of
virtue. American liberals can't even say such good things about their
own country, so Sarkozy is the #8 patriot of the year.
10. Santa Claus - Obese philanthropist
In 2007 Santa faced a lot of criticism about his weight. Liberals
have called Santa a bad influence on the young children who admire him
because of his overweight lifestyle. Liberals also can't stand the
fact that he employs millions of elves for less than minimum wage and
uses animals as his main source of transportation.
