I think dissolving the government and throwing over (over throwing?) the constitution is a fine idea. It's been more or less completely subverted by now, time to start fresh.
Man, did you hit the nail on the head. Democrat Enablers Anonymous. "Hi I'm George and I love to get rolled by the Democrats..."
Nobody could be this cowardly on purpose. The GOP has to be closet socialists.
I cant argue with you on that point. I've only been able to vote as of 2000 and I've noticed that there is alot of Political Party Politics before American People Politics kind of garbage going on. If the ignorant college kid like myself can see this stuff I dont know what the heck has been keeping people from voting PRINCIPLE over POLITICS. I acutally think that is what the politicians are trying to do to us. By presenting us with a new threat or danger to our current societal situation, they are able to scared people into electing just who they want in office. Supressing 3rd parties also helps get the job done. Just look at what Rendell did to Nader in PA. Now i'm not saying that I'd ever vote Green Party (because i'd vote Constitution Party) but the principle of the matter should just outrage every one of us. My bet is that the Repubs run Mr. 1st Amendment himself (John McCain) just because he is a moderate so that while there may be a split in the party(moderates vs conservatives), McCain will try to be a Centrist and take some of the middle of the road dems and may keep hilary out of office.
The democrap party is built upon lies and obfuscation, blood of the innocent and deviancy. And they want to instigate an 'ethics skirmish'? Bwahahahahaha ... Tom Delay should wipe the floor with them, then wring the cloth out and toss it Senate wide.
Rise like lions after slumber
In unvanquishable number.
Shake your chains to earth like dew
Which in sleep had fallen on you.
Ye are many.
They are few.
I'm with you.
We've been had.
Next election, I'm voting NO!
Does a tree make a noise when it falls in a forest with no one to hear it? Unfortunately for our side, the Dems run most of the noisemaking machinery (a.k.a. mainstream media). From reading my Saturday Ventura County (CA) Star, I'd have to believe the worst from its page one editorial, called "analysis," (in the form of an AP opinion piece by Terence Hunt). It's headlined "Bush Has Had Rough Start to His 2nd Term" and the first few paragraphs read as follows:
"One hundred days into his second term, President Bush has lost much of the political muscle he boasted about after winning re-election. Gas prices are rising, his approval ratings are sagging and Americans are unhappy with his handling of the economy and Iraq.
"Now he's trying to sell a Social Security plan that would cut future benefits for all but low-income retirees -- giving opponents fresh ammunition. Even before Bush unveiled his new proposal -- and despite a 60-day sales campaign -- a majority of Americans thought he had mishandled Social Security too.
"Along with his other troubles, Bush has had to prop up two endangered Republicans: House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, accused of ethical lapses, and John Bolton, the president's choice for U.N. ambassador, criticized for his judgment and treatment of subordinates." And of course the story then jumps to page 7, leaving most newspaper skimmers with a very negative impression of the President's predicament."
No blatant political agenda there, right? Other headlines from page one: "In Iraq, insurgents set off 17 bombs," "Mexico upset at governor's praise for Minutemen" (this is an area with a large hispanic population including plenty of illegals); and in big, bold black type the lead headline trumpets: "County's CEO may get 10.5% pay raise," clearly a Bad Thing. What you don't learn until the end of the story on page 6 (which few will read) is that he "...resisted union demands for costly pension increases, helped get expensive formula-based salary guarantees removed from labor contracts," etc.
Push polls and unending media pro-Democrat ankle-biting lies and bias have proven very effective in the past at derailing the conservative agenda. No matter how things go with Pelosi and others, it will likely be a tree falling unheard in the forest.
A few old sayings come to mind.
The Dem's might take notice of these . . .
He who lives in a glass house should not throw stones.
Don't get into a gunfight when you only have a knife.
and one of my favorites from Teddy Roosevelt . . .
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft!
There is a game going on and it is called Texas Holdem. Bush, Rove, DeLay and Frist know what they are doing.
IMHO, things are falling into place. The Republicans are making the Rats look like whining cry babies and with the Internet and Fox being a large source of news coverage, the Rats no longer can hide behind the MSM as well as they once did.
The Republicans are playing chess. The Rats are playing checkers.
I hope you're right. Sometimes I console myself by meditating on the fact that Frist's a surgeon while the Rats are back-alley knife-fighters. But the Rats know how to use power, and knife-fighters in a mob can be dangerous.
It's about time, though I'll believe the GOP has the spine to make its threat stick only when I see it.
A better name would Red Star or Star-Democrat. Like many newspapers today, the Star is not locally owned (E.W. Scripps), and is guilty of publishing on the cheap. I loaded the paper's on line edition and it seems that they depend on AP (Always Propaganda) almost exclusively for national and international "news" reports.
No matter how things go with Pelosi and others, it will likely be a tree falling unheard in the forest.
You may be correct. But I do think that a growing number of citizens have lost faith in major media outlets. In reading some of the AP "reports", the "reporters" could not be more left leaning if Al Gore wrote their garbage.
Hearing is greatly improved when one's ears are not filled with manure. Maybe, just maybe, we will begin to hear some weeping willows fall.
There is nothing wrong with the constitution. The problem is the self serving weasels that we have in congress That couldn't get a real (productive) job if their life depended on it yet they set themselves up as the elite ruling class as the enrich themselves while they run the country into the ground.
That's OK. I've had it with those that kiss up to the fools in congress just because they are GOP
Yes, you are correct. You may leave at any time.
