“Both” “American” ??????????
No, not really.

Not in any sense of the word I recognize, anyway.

Democrats are as American as Baklava.

Skimmed this a few time — I have no idea what the author is trying to say. It seems like mushy thinking with no real point. But maybe I need more coffee.

Here it is: both Republicans and Democrats are American. Both of us. Uniquely so.

Nope.

No sense reading on.

I think he's trying to say that:

The Founders knew how to organize ... and for a good cause.

The demoncrats are good at organizing, but their cause is evil.

The Republicans are lousy at organizing, but their cause much better than the demoncrats.

But the article is a mushy mess and I may have misread it.

I think some Democrats are Americans, and some can change and become conservative and American. But most won’t, and ascribe to foolish delusions that will eventually get us all killed.

The problem is not that the right is intolerant. The problem is the left is intolerant, and wants to force their opinions and radical ideas up our rear ends with no lube. I am forced to pay 31% of my income to a government that uses it to pay for drug addled gang members and lazy people, and abortions for women. That’s just a few things. I’m not even going to mention the money sent to people who would gladly kill any American (even an infant) with a rusty machete if given the chance.

Right now, America is chaotic, and divided. It will stay that way until something threatens our very existence. However our existence is being threatened, but most don’t see that. The real catastrophe and deaths are going to be right around the corner. These “American Liberals” this article speaks of will not even wake up when their cities are on fire. They MIGHT get it when they have no water, no food, no weapons, and no way to survive. They might get it when the dust settles and those who get it drag those responsible from their safety bunkers covered in tar and feathers. Until then the only thing I believe we can do is fight using their tactics. But not committing crimes, or hurting anyone. We need to get young conservative patriotic Americans into the media, and into positions in universities and government. The reason why it has gone on so long like this is because the socialistic leftists have had an unhindered covert operation to slowly indoctrinate Americans into thinking American greatness and superiority are evil for years upon years. No counter operation means no resistance, we have let them get away with it for decades.

Not to tell you what to do, but you should read on. Especially if you want to know why the GOP keeps stepping in its own way.

He makes a point about learning to use the tools they use. I agree but up to a point in some ways and beyond in others. Conservatives cannot take on the tools of evil. Integrity is utmost. As in, “Let us raise a banner to which all can repair.”. The beyond part is trickier. In the sense combat operations call for patrols to make limited contact with the enemy it is probably time to begin public gatherings again. This time armed. When Union goons and agitators try to do their thing give them the lead. It is a war we are in and we need to begin to engage the enemy in a way that sends a clear signal to them that we finally DO GET IT. A way that protects our country, communities, families, and persons. We are being robbed minute by minute by a corrupt Fed conspiring with a corrupt Fed gummint while we sit on our thumbs doing nothing to stop the process. It HAS to end and now and to end it WE have to do what the political class does not have the will to do. Sad but true. We have an enemy within that needs to be dealt with sternly. Time to get to work.

Seriously????? Nah, not even close. Every Democrat I know thinks that what my husband and I work hard for, because we make a good living, is owed to them. We have it too good, never mind that my husband works an average of 60 hours a week, weekends, holidays etc. while they are all sitting at home with their families.

Nope not even close.

Then why do we have such blockheads in Congress behind the (R) label? They are comfortable and we are comfortably numb.

"...both Republicans and Democrats are American..."

A long-wonded article for the low-information voter.

A suspension of critical thought is imperative for the leftists to gain and hold power.

Charles Manson is an American too. Doesn't mean I want him marrying my daughter.

There’s a link to the song in the article. Best live performance I’ve seen. Best light show EVER.

Actually it's for the informed voter. And you totally missed the point of the article. The Dems are dead wrong, but why are we letting them control the agenda while we sit back?

“Here it is: both Republicans and Democrats are American.”

No the Democrats are not. Not by any reasonable definition of the word “American” The statement is so wrong it off the charts. Don’t tell me 2 plus 2 is ninety and expect me subject myself to any more of such drivel.
