Before I came across FR I truly did think my head was going to explode any day.

That is EXACTLY how I felt... exactly. I couldn't understand what was so wrong with the world and why hardly anyone around me seemed to notice.

A reaction?? Yes,

And that seems to be the reason you enjoy posting from what i have seen.

I'm not looking for a "deal" on my God-given, inalienable rights.

Well, we live in an age where those taking our chain of rights from us have and continue to fight with deception, lying, stealing and propaganda. Sitting high on a pedestal and loudly proclaiming their guilt does little good, unless it is only ones goal to sit up high and be noticed by others.

We will get them back, but it may be link by link.

ALthough I am surprised you think it's only 20% larger than it should be.

Uhhh.. that was 20 TIMES...

(not 20%)

Then accelerating at a lower rate will not get you there.

Well said!

No, it isn't.

I agree with most of your points, in fact, all of your points except this last one.

Just my humble opinion and why I act the way I do. I see the Democrat Party as domestic enemy number one of the Constitution and therefor it is my sworn enemy. And, in my eyes, anyone who helps to elect members of the Democrat party are aiding and abetting the enemy.

Does that mean that if I voted for McClintock in the recall election, that I'm part of the enemy?

Term limits can help get rid of RINOs(although it's double edged).

We had a primary for 02 governor here between a center right conservative (Posthumus) and an uberRINO (Joe Schwarz). Joe Schwarz was a term limited state senator who is a gun grabber(called us bubbas that strap on a 9mm), pro-abort, ran McCain's campaign here, and supported tax increases. He ran on the GOP being too conservative. He was crushed 75-25 despite many GOP'ers voting in the democrat primary which was more contested.

Unfortunatly, we lost the race by 4%, but if Schwarz was at the top of the ticket, not only would he have lost by 10% or more, I think we may have lost several close state rep and state senate seats since conservatives (particualry Right to Life and NRA members) would have stayed home. We also would have lost the Attorney General race if Schwarz was at the top of the ticket.

One reason I'm active in the county party is to make sure our local officials are conservative, and that I can find out who the RINO's are before they get started in a career. We have a generally conservative county commish(no dems on it at all), two conservative state reps, a conservative state senator, and our congressman is conservative and from our area.

Without intervention, the frog will be boiled before our eyes.

Hopefully, the Ballot box and the soapbox are all that will be needed. That is why we are here - to try to keep it that way if possible.

A Well-Stated Deliniation of WHY FR Exists--& Why SO MANY PEOPLE support It. Over the past few years, the Nature & Purpose of our Republic has become "Blurred." Our "Vaunted Public Education System" has become CONFUSED ABOUT the history & Principles of the Nation who PAYS THE BILLS of the TEACHERS!

Our "Educational System" has FORGOTTEN that they No Longer "Teach" the "Correct Political Diktat of the ruling Communist/Totalitarian Government" because we are a FREE SOCIETY! Our "Teaching Class" have NEVER lived under Totalitarian Rule--so they "Make Assumptions" about the "Free Society" they enjoy based on UTTER IGNORANCE of TOTALITARIAN RULE! Our Teachers need to be Better Students of History; There has NEVER BEEN a "Freer Society" than America--& Our Freedom is Fragile, we Sustain our Freedom ONLY UNTIL we SILENCE "DISSENT!" REMEMBER THIS!!!
