The article is right. We must stop complaining and do something. The question is what? Whatever you are comfortable with. Write letters to papers, post on news sites other than Freerepublic, go to meetings, challenge liberal views, work for a candidate, and find ways to let people know Hollywood and the liberal media are not the majority. Posting here all is lost and just wait until TSHTF does no one any good. The liberals love to see the defeatist attitude it means they are winning.

“They just throw you out. They write the police and judges paychecks.”

It worked when I was in local government. In fact, we fired two police chiefs.

Why don’t you try it.

All is not lost for America but Mordor on the Potomac won’t survive. Make plans accordingly. Socialism always fails, thus the so called liberals aka fascists never win. Christianity has survived all man made governments.

I have spent the last 40 years fighting for what is right. I have dedicated myself to this once Great republic... I have seen little in the way of Victory. Reagan was the last great Victory of the Right. At least my two rino Senators voted against this amnesty crap. Don't worry... I'll keep fighting for Freedom and Liberty until I quit breathing... which if obama and the left have their way... will not be much longer. obamacare may just kill all of us.

You replaced a cog in the system. The system didn’t change.

What do you recommend? Should we emulate the left? Ok, I’ll hop a plane to NY and take a dump of a police cruiser! Should we take over central park and infest it with drugs and rape tents? Should we form subversive groups like ows, sds, the weathermen? Should we take up the tactics of al qaeda?

The healthcare nonsense won’t work as soon as it goes live. The free market will have a solution and the nonsense will quietly go away. Capitalist nullification.

Yeah, because that’s the sum total of everything they do. Shit on police cars and rape people in tents or blow stuff up?

Because all of this leftist crap we’ve seen implemented over the past 50 years was due to that stuff? Reeeeeealy?

As much as I don’t agree with anything they say, the left has this, I suppose, strange habit to us, of actually putting their issues in front of people 24/7. Showing up to rallies, constantly communicating, always influencing, and never letting up. Are some....most crazy? Yep. Are they all doing that really bad stuff? Nope.

Pretty much the only people on our side that can go the full distance is the NRA.

An example of our side doing what I getting at were the Chick-Fil-A Day protests. It got people’s attention, got all of us involved, won that particular issue, and didn’t involve defecating on police cars.

Emulate the Founding Fathers. Declare your individual independence from your oppressors, and act accordingly. A winning strategy.

We’ve also got GOP supermajorities in 23 states vs 11 or 12 for the democrats.

Please, the left bought off their supporters with your money. The game is rigged.

Outbidding them, the RINO way, or starving them of revenue, a tactical way are your two choices with the current system. The historic way is to create a new gov’t ... and under the Constitution that is permitted.

I think so too... but I have been wrong about what the American people will endure before.

I am in for anything that is legal and possible for me to do. If I closed my business to do it full time... my family would suffer and the families of those that have depended on me for 40 years will suffer too. The right works and makes America’s engine run... the left has millions of unemployed drones that suck off the Federal tit while protesting and promoting anarchy. I blame the soft and miseducated Americans for accepting obvious lies and promises that are never fulfilled.

The only way I see that happening is if the IRS enforcers are "encouraged" to stand down, most likely due to unpleasant things happening to some of their colleagues.

That should make the split go easy should it come to that.

“You replaced a cog in the system. The system didn’t change.”

We also threw a half-dozen rat politicians and bureaucrats into state prison, recalled more than 40 rat politicians and voted them out of office and elected a pro-2nd amendment constitutional sheriff.

You bet your beeber that we changed the system. As I said, try it. You might like it.

What good would that do? They already have your money unless you are a quarterly payer.

LOL! Yep, Jedidiah is all woman. Not sure why her parents gave her that name, but her middle name is Louisa, and she writes very good columns. I subscribe to her weekly newsletter, and she’s spot on correct most of the time. I wish that Fox would give her more air time during the day, instead of bringing her in for the “Red Eye” show in the wee hours of the morning.

Another thing you can do is get your kids out of the communist re-education centers AKA government schools, and convince as many people as you can to do likewise. If you are retired, join a local homeschool support group and offer to help out. Look around for families who are wanting to get their kids out and see what you can do to help. Work in your community for school choice proposals. If you like to teach, organize a civics class for high schoolers in your community.
