Hit ‘em their pocketbooks. Boycott known liberal bastions like New York City, Washington D.C., Chicago. Don’t vacation in Colorado, Las Vegas, California, etc. Let their tourist industries survive on the obama voters. Shop at local restaurants that you know are run by conservatives. Build up conservative businesses and let liberals support their own.
It truly is us against them.

When possible, avoid the most liberal establishments like Starbucks, Macy’s, J.C. Penneys (YES Penneys) etc. Go Galt. Avoid ANY large purchases that you can defer. Make that car last. Live with the noisy dishwasher.

And above all do NOT attend any movies. Hollywood is feeling smug right now. Do NOT make the excuse that you need some escape entertainment. Watch DVD’s you’ve already purchased or share w/ friends.

Just heard a friend at a health insurance company has been told that his job will end next year. He is an actuary that determines the health insurance rates based on risk calculations. As of next year this position in all health companies will be eliminated. All health insurance companies will be letting these people go. Many years of experience in an area killed by Obamacare.

The gop is the 21st century Whig party. They’ll hang onto what power they have for as long as they can, but they’re essentially a dead party walking.

Didn’t need economic indicators, as soon as 0bama hit 270 EVs, not just recession, but DEPRESSION, was inevitable.

We really do need a “red business” identification system.

Who needs actuaries when everyone gets exactly the same insurance at exactly the same price regardless of age and risk?

Just out of curiosity, do you know who he voted for?...

And, now that the election is over, the government can stop lying about the economic numbers and tell us the truth about how bad the economy is.

Respectfully, I don't need the government to tell me how bad the economy is.

I’ve tried to preach exactly this, but folks won’t listen.

You have one person that listens. I did a little buying when you were buying with both fists last fall :~)

I lived in Michigan for 40 years, bartering and under the table work are a way of life in the permanent recession state. One the nice things about growing up in the rustbelt is that one learns how to make things through learning industrial processes and manufacturing techniques. One of the results of this education is the subject of gun confiscation. Detroit used to be the arsenal of democracy, and the knowledge gained from that did not disappear. A word of advice to the government: don’t piss off the people who design and build your weapons, we keep the best designs for ourselves.

Maybe a red dot with a ¢ symbol in it?

Red for Red state (Did you notice the Left hung red on us way back when "because we always use red for the incumbent", unless of course he actually is a communist)

The ¢ sign as a symbol of what makes sense (*groan*, I know), and frugality, and a c for conservative. As well as something of a derivative of Ayn Rands gold $ symbol.

Millions for defense, not one cent for tribute...

Just my 2¢

Meant to say:

Millions for defense not One Red Cent for tribute.

I like it. Easy to produce. Anyone could print it and put it in their window.
