Hey great idea! To get elected all we've got to do is...

Posted on 07/06/2009 9:07:41 PM PDT by Jim Robinson

...be more like them. All we've got to do is implement universal health care, sign on to global warming, sign all the international treaties we can, give amnesty to the illegals, give up on abortion, give up to gay rights, go along with the tax hikes on the wealthy, go along with taking over industry after industry, control the greedy CEO compensation plans, shut down our defense systems, scrap our nuclear weapons programs, scrap our navy, shut down the car companies, develop rapid transit, shut down the coal industry, switch to green power, etc, etc, etc. Oh yeah, support the commies in Cuba, Venezuela and Honduras and the Mullahs in Iran... and wipe Israel off the planet.

Oops, we're going to be in a war with Russia soon. Only this time they'll be the defending capitalists.

Whoa there Jim. That's quite a plan you got there.

But are you forgetting our LGBT friends?

I keep thinking the ChiComs are going to put the brakes on ObaMao’s stampede to socialism because they don’t want their dollar-based debt holdings rendered totally worthless.

That’s one of the problems with central planning. The things you’ve got to plan for keep expanding beyond your plans. Gonna have to draw up a new five year plan. Again.

I really believe the tide is turning Jim. I feel it.

Obama is becoming ineffective even with a heavily. Democratic congress. He is starting to sound like Herbert Hoover. His positive words are not in touch with reality.

I just wonder how bad things are going to get before 2012. When people are unable to afford food because the dollar is worthless, we are talking about a lot of pain for a lot of people.

that Sarah Palin some people think is a fool and a loser... America may run to her in a hurry.

Must be the summer blahs or something. I think the 4th of July got a lot of people depressed as many look around and see the current majority in DC doing everything they can to destroy this great nation. Porkulus Bills, Cap and Trade, Hillarycare, Government Motors, etc....
Its like one big country destroying tsunami after another and it appears to be hitting FReepers morale pretty hard lately.

Well, I finally thought of one positive outcome of Oafbama’s election - it has become much easier to identify RINOs and CINOs and neo-lib Republicans. Played right, the developing groundswell appalled by Chicago-style thugocracy will toss out 0’s handmaids, including every turncoat Republican.

We do have to be like them in one way at least. We have to develop an emotional appeal, critical thinking doesn't motivate like emotion does.

Let me illustrate the problem. If someone is hungry our emotional response is compassion to feed them. That is the Democratic line in a nutshell. A society is measured by how it treats the weakest and poorest members.

We need to come up with an emotional response to dealing with the needy (or ill, or out of work, etc.). Until we come up with that visceral answer we will be marginalized and defeated.

So JimRob why stop there, we can offer reparations, elect Putin to congress, abdicate all to Hugo Chavez and then castrate ourselves and laydown on barracks type racks cover ourselves in purple shrouds and suck poison, and wait for the flying saucers to take us to planet hollywood where we can toast to the dancing crabs who give power to all whom would be acceptable in the eyes of SHE WHO WILL BE OBEYED.

Just a thought.

Yeh, well, all the pundits say so. I mean, it's dawned on us by now but it doesn't seem to have penetrated the thick crania of the Experts that (1) they're 108% Democrat, and (2) oh so free with advice about how to reform the GOP to meet their expectations. It's good advice, really, intended to place conservatives in our intended place at the back of the class, grateful for the benevolent leadership of our obvious intellectual superiors.

And we're not buying it. Obviously it's a sign of our own inferiority. But there is in this the panic of a confidence man who sees his scam evaporating before his eyes, making ever more extravagant claims and wild accusations to attempt to recover the situation. Feel the fear.

Somewhere there has to be a list of the biggest buffoons of the US Presidency. The genius of the Constitutional system was that it got us past these idiots with surprisingly little damage. But when the Constitution itself is subverted wholesale with blatant lies to the applause of over half of America, where do we go from there?

No way.

Now is the time for conservatives to use every tool in the bag to take back our country from a Congress in which the majority of the members show definite signs of insanity, corruption, ineptitude, and incompetence. It is up to “we, the people!”

I don’t know. Some of our GOP leaders like this kind of stuff. Some of them have even had success in getting some of this implemented and some of them have run or are running for the congress, senate or even president. Take McCain or Romney for example...

In the long run, these so called Republicans are going to be defeated. Can you even believe that in Oregon the dimocrats got booed at the Independence Day Rally and Parade in Hillsboro?

When Oregon turns against the dims, something is really happening nationwide!

....................I didn’t think I would ever confess a wish we had gotten a Hillary! presidency,.............

An amen brother!

On another thread I gave my confessional to JimRob that even Hitlery would have been better than this poseur in chief.

Zer0 must go in 2012. Pelosi must go in 2010!

I don’t really care who the new President is - it could be Bozo the Clown - and unless he’s a Communist, he’d be 2000% better than Zer0!

We don’t need to circle a fully conservative candidate for the 2012 election, we need to get rid of Zer0. Get rid of Pelosi, get rid of Reid!

I think that 2016 is the election year that we can posit a conservative candidate, not 2012 - as we’ve got to get the Marxist out of office, and rebuild!
