We might not have the unions, La Raza and ACORN, but we do have: Churches/synagogues/temples, veterans groups, disenchanted AARP members, conservative groups like FR, patriotic bikers, pro-life organizations, chambers of commerce and business groups, anti-illegal immigration people and lots more. Getting organized and "boots on the ground" are the key.

The paradox the left is facing is in painting independent minded people as being mindless and manipulated.

Instead of celebrating America's melting pot, our President preemptively plays the race card.
Instead of celebrating free markets, our President nationalizes large swaths of the economy.
Instead of celebrating America's exceptionalism, our President apologizes on the global stage.
Instead of celebrating and honoring America's elderly, our President wants to force 'end of life' plans.
Instead of celebrating democracy, our President is selling Marxism.
Instead of transparency, our President obfuscates all aspects of his personal history and governance.
Instead of openness and representative governance, our President has over 30 secretive "czars" accountable only to him but affects all of us.
What happens to a Community Organizer when the community organizes against him?

Our new comfort zone has to be getting out on the streets. We saw that last night and other nights. People who attended probably felt better that they made a difference instead of staying home watching Tv and getting mad.

The people in Maryland last night were priceless. They have great chants back at the Dem/union goons that made fun of them but it was not too mean.

“All we are saying is - pay your own bills.”

They had a few more. Get in the streets, make fund of them in a cleaver but not totally mean way. IF they want to get rough - we get more people there.

As Glenn Beck has said “we have them surrounded.”

We have the momentum so we need to keep pushing.

Many of us are aware that a good portion of Alinsky’s rules and tactics are easily recognizable as summaries, adaptations and distillations of Sun Tzu’s commentaries on war and politics.

We would do well to read and understand Sun Tzu. Wisdom is where you find it.

This is all so funny, and it makes me so very proud.

I have spent a good part of my life trying to “organize” conservatives, and it is darn near impossible to get our side to do anything they don't want to do.

Obama is our greatest “organizer” -— Obama has done more to organize the right, than anyone else in HISTORY!

For the most part we have the 2A activists and the libs really do need to be reminded of that.

“One thing the left has that the pro-liberty side doesn’t is the ability to call on unions,”

Don’t union members have to work too? I mean I know they can show up as a rent-a-mob but won’t they get tired of doing it for free week after week?
