Excerpt if the conclusion portion. Begin here:

And the increasing power of the federal government, extending its growing reach into the lives of private citizens, shows our nation has decreasing respect for private property.
Reagan was right. We will not be victorious over terrorism with might alone. Behind that might must be a virtuous and moral nation that all nations respect. We must be a nation that knows how and when to use power, and against whom, because we know the difference between right and wrong.
Of course we need to fight terrorism. But we have not made more progress in this war because we have failed to address the spiritual and moral crisis within. Without doing this, this will be, as Rev. Falwell said in 2001, "only the beginning."
