Ted Nugent expresses support for 'Restoring Courage'

June 20, 2011
 Wilson

Writer

President Lincoln said "It often requires more courage to dare to do right than to fear to do wrong."

To have courage takes guts, fortitude and an unwavering commitment to a set of values, principles and beliefs. Like the oak tree, courageous people are strong. Courageous people are often pushed by the howling winds of political correctness, but they never break.

The world must never forget that courageous people are the ones who truly make a difference. They lead from the front. Courageous people stand--often with their backs to the wall.

My family, my friends and my good friend, Glenn Beck, are courageous. They stand, lead from the front, and embrace the words of Martin Luther King who said "We must build dikes of courage to hold back the flood of fear."

Glenn marshaled more than 300,000 American patriots in DC last year and he is now calling on all people of goodwill and faith to meet him in Israel this year. That's leading from the front. That's courageous. That takes guts. Now more than ever.

The Israeli people are also courageous, quite possibly the most courageous in the world. With their backs to the sea, they stand

courageously. The Nugent family stands with them. I stand with all people of all religious faiths and denominations and political ideologies, who courageously denounce violence and stand for peace.

May God bless them and bless Glenn Beck,

Ted Nugent

The Moment of Trump's Conversion: Dr Anthony Fauci Takes Full Responsibility https://dailycaller.com/2020/03/30/anthony-fauci-moment-donald-trump-realized-extend-social-distancing-mandate/
  • Dr Anthony Fauci, the Chief Medical Advisor to the coronavirus task force, explained on CNN that Trump listened and "got it right away" after being shown new data projecting as many as 3 Million deaths in the US if COVID-19 mitigation policies were lifted.
  • Fauci also said Trump's "first goal is to prevent suffering and death" and this was part of the reason why he knew the COVID-19 guidelines should be extended.
  • "You know, interestingly, we showed him the data, he looked at the data and he got it right away, it was a pretty clear picture," according to Fauci.
  • "Dr. Debbie Birx and I went in together and leaned over his desk and said 'Here is the data, take a look.'
  • Trump reportedly looked at them, understood the implications and he shook his head and said 'I guess we got to do it.'
  • "Medically, this is the right decision, and I stand behind it 100%," Fauci said.
  • "From a public health standpoint, we felt strongly that it would have been the wrong decision to pull back," Fauci said. "I mean, we are scientists, physicians, public health officials. We're not economists. We're sensitive to the idea that the economy could suffer, but weigh that against tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of American lives."
  • "...it was patently obvious looking at the data that at the end of the day if we try to push back prematurely, not only would we lose lives, but it probably would hurt the economy as well. So you would lose on double accounts. So, to us, there was no question what the right choice was."
