"Yea, Though I Walk Thru The Valley Of Death, I Shall Fear No Evil..."
"Because I'm the meanest SOB in the Valley". I know a lot of Vietnam vets will remember that saying. It was imprinted on many of a black silk jacket and carved into many a Zippo lighter. But it had a spirit in it that is missing today and which is desperately needed, in my opinion. They were saying, "No Dammit, we will not be defeated by fear! We will not surrender our freedoms no matter how dark the valley."

2. It had nothing to do with Republican dogma...it was a war cry for those with grass stained fatigues
It was more derogatory than you might even believe.
Do not corrupt my slogan.

3. But it was not "fearful"
It spit in fear's eye. Totally opposite of Republican dogma.
