A CALL TO ARMS! – Well, To The Ballot Box Next Tuesday, Anyway.

A Call to Arms – Well, to the ballot box next Tuesday, anyway.

I was unaware of the spectacle the Democrats made of themselves last night until I listened to Rush today. I have never heard him declare himself speechless – he admitted he did not have the words to describe the despicable behavior of the Democrats last night at Senator Wellstone's "memorial service."

Sean Hannity was likewise in high dungeon.

I don't want to dwell on the content of (as one of Sean's callers referred to it) "The 2002 Democrat National Convention." What struck me is the opportunity we conservatives have to take back the Senate and improve our majority in the House, big time, as a result of the foolish behavior of the Democrat Party last night.

Here is the point of this little vanity (my first, BTW): The Democrats generated a considerable amount of anger by their churlish behavior last night. Let's translate this anger into Conservative votes next Tuesday.

Sean, having played the audio suggesting that the Democrats should "Win this one for Paul," noted that the Republican rallying cry for Tuesday should be "Win another one for the Gipper."

I think that is a hellofagoodidea!

So, following up on the "Broken Glass Republican" thread, and armed with the certain knowledge that the Democrat Party is a "Clear and Present Danger" to the survival of this Constitutional Republic, let's vow to vote these idiots out of office Tuesday.

The most important thing you can do is ensure that YOU vote next Tuesday. The second most important thing you can do between now and next Tuesday is work to defeat Democrats by organizing a local "Get out the (Republican) Vote" campaign, and ensuring that those who promise to vote the Liberal/Socialist/Marxist low life Bastards out of office get to the polls and do just that.

Contact your local Republican Committeeman/woman and volunteer to make phone calls, set up car pools to your local precinct and whatever else comes to mind to get out Republican voters to the polls.

And your "hook" to energize the voters, particularly those "naysayers" who think their vote does not count, is to briefly describe the despicable behavior of the Democrats at Senator Wellstone's memorial service. One speaker (I believe it was Senator Harkin) practically recited the Communist Manifesto as he described the Socialist agenda the Democrat Party stands for today. I'm doing this from memory (and I was driving on I-95, so I had to divide my attention), but I believe I heard Senator Harkin urge the country to vote Democrat for "Social and Economic Justice." He also urged a Democrat vote for "race, gender, ethnicity and sexual identity" equality.

Those of you who listened to Rush and Sean today will be able to fill in the "rest of the story."

Let me give you just one instance where you can make a difference in the projected outcome of a Senate race: West Virginia went for George W. Bush by 250,000 votes in the 2000 Presidential election. If those 250,000 voters go to the polls on Tuesday and vote for Jay Wolfe, they will retire one of the Liberal/Socialist/Marxist Bastards I referred to in a preceding paragraph.

If West Virginia, why not every state/congressional district where there is a contested Senate or House seat?

Let's Roll!

Rush and Sean gave me an idea -- lets all work together to Get out the (Republican) Vote and end our misery.

We learned something about this in Lost Wages. Lets put what we learned to work!

And they said that it is impossible to herd cats. Time to prove them wrong!

[Uff Da]

We did our 'early voting' yesterday in Midland, Texas.........We voted in the 'Mall' and we didn't have to wait.........we were the only voters...this was just before the noon hour..

I pray to our LORD that we have enough good and thoughtful voters to bring the Senate back into a Republican-run body and the House will retain it's Majority.........After watching (barf) the Wellstone fiasco, we should gain a considerable vote among both parties.........I'd be so ashamed right now to be a Democrat..........Gag!!

[Little Bill]

The election in Mass should be interesting. There are enough referenda on the ballot to insure a fair turn out. If Tommy "the commie" Birmingham hadn't killed the sodomite marrage initive it would be real interesting.

[Taxman]

Ping, and forward.

Your comments?

[wontbackdown]

In Texas we have early voting, so I went today and voted a straight Republican ticket and I urge everyone to do the same. We desperately need what our president wants to do for the country and it's not possible with the Dems standing in the way. Let's all get out there and do it for Dubya!

[Taxman]

Good on you! Now, help get the rest of your fellow Texans off their duffs and to the polls!

[Cobra64]

Sean is a Rush Limbaugh ditto. Sean hasn't had an origininal idea since he's been on the radio. IF Rush says it's snowing in Miami in July, Sean would ask a listener if they have the snow plows out in Miami. Sean is merely a mimic. He does do a good job at it though.

[Taxman]

Well, do your part to make it even more interesting -- how many Republicans can be elected in Mass if Republicans get off their keysters and go vote!

PS: I voted "NO" on every bond issue (there were 5) measure and "NO" on the VA sales tax increase. Stupid state is a bazillion dollars over budget, and they want to take on more debt? DUH!

[upchuck]

I did my "early voting" today as I'll be working the polls next Tues. I'm gonna be a Republican Sheriff (seriesly, that's the name of the position). I jis cain't wait to show my six shooter to all the ladies :)

All kidding aside, this will be the first time I've worked at the polls and I'm looking forward to it.

[Taxman]

So what is your point?

You gonna sit on your ass and bitch about the country going to Hell in a handbasket, or are you gonna do something about it?

[Taxman]

Good on you!

Make sure that the Dems only vote once, and that the dead Dems do not vote at all! LOL!

Thanks for the Ping! I didn't hear the shows today, but I'm sure that most of the people hear of FR did. This is a challenge folks, how many of you are will to rise to it?

Between the threads that Lone Palm posted about the "Broken Glass Republican" and this one, do you think that you can help?

I will be working the polls, as well as urging other South Carolinians to vote. Get out there and JUST DO IT! It doesn't hurt and one thing that we have to remember is that each vote counts and counts in a big way.

If you don't vote, you are casting a vote for the other candidate. Ask yourself what you want to see in the coming years - a balanced budget, less government, what and then go out and vote.

It doesn't hurt to volunteer with the local Republican Committee. It doesn't hurt to be involved actively in your community and promote this Republic - lets show Benjamin Franklin that we can keep this Republic.

"... people hear of FR did." This is supposed to read "...people here on FR did." I apologize for this gaff.

I worked with Ronald Reagan in 1963 when he was stumping for Barry Goldwater's election bid in 1964. I've contributed over $100,000 to the RNC, and associated conservative associations since 1963. What have you done?

I've been listening to Sean for about 5 years. He does flip-flop, depending on what's popular.

[dixie sass]

Pinging folks.

[dixie sass]

But have you contributed yourself and your time?

[jospehm20]

Me too!

[windchime]

"I did my "early voting" today as I'll be working the polls next Tues"

Me too (straight Republican ticket). I worked for the first time in the primary. It's a good idea to observe the process from the inside out.

I hope yours is a good experience.

-Vote... and be D@mned! (vanity, but dead serious)--
