HOW MUCH LONGER WILL WE SIT AND WATCH?
Gargantua (self) ^ | June 27, 2009 | Gargantua

Posted on 06/26/2009 9:50:56 PM PDT by Gargantua

The imprisoned-in-their-own-country Iranians, who know they'll likely get bludgeoned bloody, and might even get killed, were nevertheless in the streets by the tens-of-thousands; in peaceful but unmistakable protest making sure the powers that be understood their displeasure.

Obama (like Ahmedinejad, an illegal usurper to a seat he by law cannot hold) in 6 months takes America from a nation of laws guided by a Constitution to a banana republic dictatorship (rapidly headed for third-world junk bond status) with Czars, unelected and answering to nobody but His Highness, to run everything from car companies and banks to when and where I can crap, and we sit on our collective flab and whine.

On display here is the contrast between how one behaves when he takes his freedoms for granted, juxtaposed against how those who have never known freedom behave.

At its essence, it underscores just how precious and worth getting motivated over freedom is. I hope we don't have to learn the hard way how sweet it truly was by losing it to the tree-muslim-queer-globe-hugging lunatics and their trained-seal messiah.

When are we going to stand up and say "No more"?

When it's too late and it's all gone. And not one instant before.

America -- a great idea, didn't last.

LOL, Remember that 1970s movie the Network”, ??? opened the window and shouted “I am mad as hell and I am not going to take it anymore” ??

It’s not like this wasnt completely predictable even OVER two years ago after 2006 election and Bush fired Rumsfield, and tons of other presents from GWB.

It will go one forever.

The DNC is not dumb.

To keep the GOP well stocked with Dangny Taggerts, they will now give us a victory.

Something like de funding the passing out of homosexual pamphlets to 5th graders in a 500 student school district in Montana.

Then Hannity, ORielley, Coulter will write books and talk about winning battles in the Culture Wars. RUSH will talk boldly of the turning tide.

Drudge will release new numbers showing that Fox trounced CBS, MSNBC and ABC combined.

They will make a fortune creating still more Dagnys.

The answer is a very difficult an unpleasent one.

One that in a few weeks,we honor a better, stronger generation for having pursued.

We shall celebrate with hot dogs,picnics faux cannon fire - fireworks.

I believe that Obama envies Ahmedinejad’s power. The 2nd amendment is our safety mechanism.

When?

When the Messiah's voters figure out they have been conned.

But by then Zero will have arranged that their votes won't be needed again.

Then they will have will have two choices, crushing poverty or death.

Yeah, it seems a shame to let a perfectly good Constitutional Amendment go to waste. Like Granny used to say, "You know, there're babies in Biafra who don't have any Constitutional Amendments at all..."

Actually, on July 4th and 5th millions of Americans are going to peacefully assemble and protest Baby Doc Barrack.

Then, on September 11th & 12th, we're going to shock the beltway, and the world. I'm guessing 2-4 million, though it could (and should) be much larger.

JimRob, how many do you think will show in D.C. this September?

In a legal conflict, never ask a question you don't already know the answer to.

America -- a great idea, didn't last.

I've been thinking that just today, that America has been called the Great Experiment. It's called that because before it, monarchy or some form of it has been the norm.

There's no place on Earth nearly as free and we keep everyone else as free as we can. Without a free America, the world will experience another Dark Age.

The moral fabric of America is so weak today as is the critical thinking skills of the masses. Obama and the Democrats are taking advantage of the youth who have been brainwashed and dumbed down for two generations.

The strength of America lies in its citizens and their vigilance and here the leftists have dealt a crushing blow.

Be in D.C.!

A people who voluntarily elect a racist and Marxist of questionable origin; one born to a violent Marxist drunk and America-averse tramp of a mother, one raised by and facilitated by communists, sexual deviants, drug users and America-haters; one who has spent his entire life working for and surrounded by those lusting for and working towards the death of traditional, exceptional America, get exactly what they deserve.

In my opinion, 90% of those who are shocked by what’s now going down, will do as they have always done — nothing. Inaction and cowardice is what got the Right to where it is today and to think that the “troops” will suddenly rally to save America from her destroyers, is laughable. It’ll have to get a lot worse on the ground before anything resembling broad-based revolutionary action gels. And by then, America will be approaching Second World status and the leftist scum will be firmly in control of nearly everything. Have fun slaving for your U.N. masters!

If you think about it, we have way more to protest than the Iraquis.

Their election was tampered with.

Not only was our election at the very least tampered with if not stolen outright (Acorn facing charges of 'voter fraud' in as many as 17 States), but the Schmoo who "won" refuses to release college transcripts, college funding assistance application documents, and even his birth certificate--the clear implication being that he has something really significant to hide, including the possibility that he is Constitutionally proscribed from being eligible for the office he now holds.

Adding insult to injury, he takes office in a country that he and his Congressional Black Caucus (the "conscience of Fanny Mae") have run the economy of into the ground (again, with his Acorn accomplices), and proceeds to turn a Constitutional Republic into a banana republic dictatorship in less than 6 months.

His posse has threatened the CEO's of monster corporations into accepting his Government theft of majority shares of their stock, openly fired inspectors general who have blown the whistle on his entirely corrupt cadre, and appoints someone who believes in Global Sharia Law to be special counsel to the White House from the Attorney General's Office.

Where are the tar and feathers? Where the outraged citizenry exercising their constitutional right to petition our government for redress of the most aggregious and grievous of grievances?

We better stand up on the 4th of July and September 12th, or we may well lose our legs completely.

Cap and Trade will be buthchered like one of 0'bone-pimp's late term "punishment babies" in the Senate. I'm going to really enjoy watching the GOP and the chicken-sh*t scared Dems in the Senate suck the brains out of that bad baby right before it's delivered.

Pardon the graphic descriptives, but they fit so nicely... :-)

My one fear is that the ass-clown in the White House, because he's surrounded himself with equally vile tax-cheats and perverts, and is next ringed by a fawning, rum-swab media, might be emboldened to even deeper depths of Anti-Constitutional depravity because he believes he is getting away with all this crap.

If a semi-permanent, chanting mob carrying placards and pichforks camped out in front of 1600 PA Ave were daily putting a big bad bug in his ear, he may think about slowing down his assault from within.

His sociopathic need to hurt America notwithstanding, his vanity is at war with his ideology in that, at the end of the day, he really doesn't want History to record him as the worst, most disgraced president ever.

He might, if he continues on his present course, personally guarantee that America will not elect another black president in our lifetimes. Some fitting legacy for the biggest ass-clown ever to hold the office.

Remember, these people actually thought Bush was a "chimp." Go figure!

Seriously? My guess is never. Not until it’s a done deal and too late. Maybe when and if they try to disarm but they may feel there is no need to do that because they can accomplish what they want and there is no need to fear armed citizens and they are probably right.

All I'm advocating for is peaceful assembly for the purpose of making our displeasure-- and our numbers-- known... kind of like the Tea Parties coming up in July, and the September March On Washington Tea Party.

I'll bet there will be millions across the country this 4th of July.

And, in the cities, the police and leftist race baiters will have instructions to provoke violence.

Then, on September 11th & 12th, we're going to shock the beltway, and the world. I'm guessing 2-4 million, though it could (and should) be much larger.

And again, the police and Islamophiles will provoke violence. Janet Napolitano, the Homeland Security CZAR has directed she be proved correct, the reeducation camps will begin to fill.

I thought that this sort of instigative insertion by the left might have been prevalent at the first set of Tea Parties across America... it was not.

The best way to guarantee that no such shenanigens takes place is to vastly, VASTLY outnumber your troublemaking foe. That way, with 97%+ of the assembled crowds behaving peaceably, the troublemakers are marginalized to insignificance

Be interesting to see if they try it on the 4th. They'd be smart not to bother.
