The April 2008 BCRW Newsletter was the last newsletter published here (a temporary lapse). We hope you will forgive us for failing to get subsequent newsletters out, however, with the campaign season upon us, we found that there were too few people performing too many tasks and information that would normally go in the newsletter has been posted elsewhere on the website. Please check the "Calendar" and "Announcements" on the MAIN page for vital information. We will resume posting the newsletter as soon as possible. We leave you with a few quotes from the April newsletter:

“My country owes me nothing. It gave me, as it gives every boy and girl, a chance. It gave me schooling, independence of action, opportunity for service and honor. In no other land could a boy from a country village, without inheritance or influential friends, look forward with unbounded hope.”

“Every collectivist revolution rides in on a Trojan horse of ‘Emergency’. It was the tactic of Lenin, Hitler and Mussolini. In the collectivist sweep over a dozen minor countries of Europe, it was the cry of men striving to get on horseback. And ‘emergency’ became the justification of the subsequent steps. This technique of creating emergency is the greatest achievement that demagoguery attains.”

“Freedom conceives that the mind and spirit of man can be free only if he is free to pattern his own life, to develop his own talents, free to earn, to spend, to save, to acquire property as the security of his old age and his family.”

“Honest difference of views and honest debate are not disunity. They are the vital process of policy among free men.”
