We’re not so much lacking in courage, but fail to recognize the magnitude of the evil our opponents represent.

Nonsense. We are ALL total cowards. The Founders gave us the method to have a total revolution without firing a shot or shedding a drop of blood - it's right there in the Declaration of Independence: "Governments are instituted among men...deriving their just power from the consent of the governed."

The ONLY way the government continues to get away with the things they do is OUR CONSENT. Problem is, the moment we stop consenting is the moment we lose the mortgage, the cars, the toys, the health insurance, and the booze we drink while watching the "big game" on the flat screen TV. If we're lucky, the wife won't bitch too much about climate control, and we won't be forced to watch our children starve to death. So long as we accept our peaceful slavery, we get to keep all those things.

The bottom line? There are no actual PATRIOTS, in the mold of our founders, alive today. If there were, they would have stood long ago.

I recently did some research on the black robe regiment, and it was very interesting.

As a christian, I always felt it was my duty to stand up to tyranny. It was interesting to study those that did.

I trust you’re speaking for yourself and are not among tea party patriots. We’re tired of carrying the load for you condescending whiners. I won’t degrade myself by detailing the sacrifices, fortune and time I have invested in restoring our Republic. And, I know a lot more just like me. Since the MSM doesn’t report on us, you don’t know we exit. If you were involved, you would.

Are you sure you’re not a socialist Democrat trolling your betters?

Sadly, you are correct.
