Hasn’t died yet... SCOTUS has the last word.

[rabscuttle385]

Some look to the states as possible saviors. Please. The states long ago surrendered their sovereignty, and are now junkies on federal monies, which they need for schools, roads, Medicaid, and much else. If the citizens are now wards of the federal government, the states long since preceded them in that sorry servitude.

We can all think Lincoln for that last part.

Not dead, only knocked down. Now we have to get up and fight back. Forgotten the bloody footprints in the snow at Valley Forge already?

[DarthVader]

The Republic is not dead but its enemies will be.

I think it died 15 years before Chairman Obama was elected. It died when Mt. Carmel was destroyed by the FBI and when the crime was whitewashed by members of both political parties in Congress.

Not on our watch....get over the wounds. There’s a lot of steam generating the foward thrust. This is no time to apply the brakes or drive off course...

Obama said he loves the free market...

• except for healthcare 17% of the economy,
• Except for the auto industry 10% of the economy,
• Except for banking 6%(?) of the economy.

  So Obama loves the free market except for 33% of the economy.

In 1860? Not born yet.

It’s a misnomer to say the republic has died, as long as elections are free.

It’s still a republic. It’s just shifting from a capitalist republic to a socialist republic.

But if Obama takes over healthcare (17% of the economy), the auto industry (10% of the economy) and banking (6% of the economy). With government control of 33% of the economy, how much longer will elections be free?

We better nip this in the bud in October or this might be the republic’s fatal wound.

[April Lexington]

Monday morning... I am respectfully taking down the American flag in front of my building, carefully and respectfully folding it and putting it in safe storage. From now on, I will be flying my STATE flag until our republic and its constitution are restored...

[Persevero]

My Republic hasn’t died. It has suffered a severe wound and I plan on doing all that is in my power to fix it.

[Ol' Sparky]

Assuming the GOP can take back both houses of Congress and the White House in the next couple of elections (by no means a sure thing), can you name one gigantic entitlement enacted by liberals that Republicans have successfully repealed? Or even made serious effort to repeal? Ever? Anyone?

Welfare was reformed and rolled back in the 1990s.

Where was/am I? Sitting on a beach in Pattaya, Thailand right now, and I believe the night will consist of many wonderfully concocted libations...

The Republic will endure. This is a bad time for our nation, but we will not let these temporary occupiers of office destroy the promised land. As much as their undemocratic and unconstitutional actions have struck a blow, it is only when we give in that the fight is lost. As heavy as this news is, I see an interest, an intensity, and a disgust for big government in my countrymen that I have never seen before. These are the seeds of something big - the next conservative revolution. America will be great again. It's time to get to work.

[sinanju]

I’m not convinced repeal is impossible. This mess cannot work in such a huge country as ours. Our healthcare system is going to start collapsing in a matter of weeks. Things are going to get bad and steadily worse throughout, never mind the job numbers. Obamacare has nothing to offer but misery and death. They’ve already run out of other people’s money.

Dictators go down when they can no longer pay off even their favorites.

[PanzerKardinal]

No time for whining and crying.

Instead....Time to bring out the pitchforks and torches.

Let's show these SOB's how revolting we peasants really can be.

[rfreedom4u]

I was watching “Pacific” on HBO.

A sad, sad day for America.

Correct- this is just the opening act of "an army of Davids" forming a resistance...

They can no longer call me a “cheat” when I refuse to give them my labor.

They can no longer call me “coward” when I refuse to fight for them.

The left will create what they have always created: every man for himself, the opposite of what they claim to advocate.

I believe that each of us should work in our personal lives to make certain that the burden of these “changes”, this tyranny, falls heaviest on those that supported it. Save the innocent whenever you can.
