If those in high places have needed purging (by Obama’s Marxist logic and animosities), then how much more do those in low places need the same purgative? We’ll all drink the cup of wrath when the division is complete and we’ll see revolution and civil war in one embodiment in America. I’ve been a conservative for a long time, yet have never doubted I am my brothers keeper (what are all my ancestors lying in Military Cemeteries for if not to show there is no limit to Man’s heart) - yet, we drink gall in the shadow of our charity and must wait while this churl feed’s his minions lies and lies and lies. That any man of liberty could ever accept rule by such an Ostrich of Folly as Obama is unbelievable.
No one in power FEARS Conservatives.
And nothing will change until they do.
Whenever i see a sidewalk vendor or salvation army kettle i want to ask so... who did you vote for?
i am angry and pissed enough to no longer donate or buy from just anyone.
going Galt as much as i can.
chik fil a, hobby lobby and interstate batteries still have my business.
They are playing a kind of flex defense against anything we do. They seem to keep it just below the level of outrage that would spark strong, massive, no holds barred resistance and repudiation. Here we have evidence of outrageous interference with the voting process itself, and yet the wronged candidates, for the most part, do nothing but meekly submit like scolded children. We are dealing with a deeper set of problems.
1) We have become so culturally balkanized we cannot muster a unified response to a direct threat to our existence. It is as if we are on some drug that allows us to see what is happening but paralyzes us and prevents us from lifting a finger in our own defense.
2) We now live in a culture where the appeal to law as a moral force has almost no effect. “They shouldn’t do that,” means nothing to those who are dedicated to stealing our freedoms. Yet we pound away at that deserted target, hoping someday it will finally work. That’s not where the enemy lives. The only thing they will recognize is consequences, reliable cause and effect. This is like the problem of disciplining a child once they have learned there will be no more punishments for bad deeds. Words that appeal to our higher nature can only affect those who still have a responsive higher nature, a conscience. The rest, for all intents and purposes, have the listening skills of zombies.
3) It is just easier to sit at home and complain, or get on line and complain, than to do something that costs time, effort, and money. I tried rounding up people here in Springfield for conservative political action, and had promises, but no follow-up, no real support. Your real commitments always show up in where you invest your time, treasure and talent. Always. Based on my (admittedly limited and anecdotal) experience, our commitment to really winning this conflict is radically lower than our bluster would suggest.
I could go on. But these would be sufficient to cripple any sustained resistance. This is a marathon, not a sprint. They have been laboring for this day for a century or more. Their “work” has paid off. We are like Sampson, accustomed to having and using the great natural strength given us by God to shrug off any insurgent like a pesky gnat. But our hair has been cut, our strength diminished, the divine cause of our strength denied, even here on FR. And now we gasp with amazement at our own inability to respond, as Soros and his friends bind us with flimsy devices our forefathers would have laughed at, and overcome in a moment.
We are not who we used to be, who we remember being, and we will have to address that if we really want out of the prison that is slowly but relentlessly being built around us.
Peace,

In My mind, there’s a possibility that the regime has planned a humongous blood-letting, to intimidate the populace to fall in line, a la, Soviet Union, paving the way for self-proclamation of BHO as POTUS for life.
Also, I would not be surprised if BHO has delusions of grandeur and aspires to murder more people than his hero Uncle Joe Stalin did......tens of millions.
And lest we forget; the various departments of the government acquired millions of rounds of ammunition this past summer; for what purpose? I’ll make a wild guess that they do not intend to give those bullets out as party favors!
We got your back Jim. I just hope the GOP is listening to us. They better not dare lurch to the left.
If not now, when?
When: Between now and no more than two years from now.
We have a president who is a coward in foreign policy and a leftist radical with respect to the Constitution. He is destroying the military and has driven a stake though whatever might have been left of our Culture.
The truth is History took a holiday not when the Soviet Union fell but rather when she rose to create her half of the bipolar world. When she fell inertia pushed America to this point in history. The two term Obama presidency now destroys what was left of the military as well as the "respect" (fear) other nations may have had for us and thus releases every pent up force through 50 years to do the mischief that the superpowers damped down. Watch Islam and Israel, China and Russia...Chaos will come to the world.
I will help defeat my rep (Wolf VA) to that end. He should have been tossed on his TARP vote but now we can expect another bad vote or two from him before we have a chance to get rid of him.

I think it is time for the Repubicans to go the way of the Whigs before them.
Bring on the TEA Party.
An interesting scenario was presented in the Vince Flynn novel, “Term Limits”.
The question is, what happens if Obama does not get his way? What if congress and or the court tries to block his dictatorial rule by executive decree? Will he then call for his leftist followers to revolt? He obviously has no qualms about calling for civil unrest, violence and revenge.
Where is the TEA party?
I suggest that the first thing conservatives do is attend your local village, county and schoolboard meetings and throw all the leftists out of office. You can’t do revolution if you don’t have a secure political base. Cleaning up your neighborhoods is a start.
See the Founder’s Committees of Safety for instructions.
“Committees of Safety formed in 1774 to keep watch on the distrusted royal government. By 1775 they had become the operating government of all the colonies, as the royal officials were expelled....

“And lest we forget; the various departments of the government acquired millions of rounds of ammunition this past summer; for what purpose?”
Yep, we’re gonna be attacked by forecasters from the National Weather Service.
...the lack of attention to the massive voter fraud...Because the rinos in charge won’t make a spectical of all these incredible cases of voter fraud, it shows us that rinos just = democrats. How else can the inaction be taken? Kinda like All-Star Wrestlin’.....Romney’s the fall guy in a wrestlin’ match. Couldn’t have been a match without him, though
That thread seems relevant to this one.
