As the November congressional elections approach, I couldn't help but wonder about the inevitable.
We know that progressives have no morals, and their current political machine, the Democrat Party, has no boundaries which it will not cross for the sake of power.
Given an unbounded quest for power by an immoral group, is there any doubt that they will engage in vote fraud to avoid the natural backlash of their socialist takeover of America?
My thoughts exactly.
Both parties are headed for the same goal. The only difference is one is going 10 miles an hour, the other 100.
hmmmmm
THX THX.
PRAYERS FOR YOUR PROJECT(S)
I would not put anything past barry hussein obama.
That’s my fear too—more than Dem chicanery. You can’t sew nads on these guys and we know how they’ve acted in the past. Bushie had a perfect opportunity in 2006 to get some things done and completely blew it. I’m just hoping that there’s enough new blood up there to give us a boost and make some real changes.
What have you done about all the cheating that has happened in the last two election?
Electronic voter fraud could so easily be prevented. All we need is a *gasp* receipt, like you get at the grocery store with your ‘receipt’ number encoded in a UPC bar code.
Do 20% audits, have the voter show up with card or drivers’ licence and verify.
You don’t show up, your vote is tossed and you’re tossed off the rolls.
Certify the vote a month after voting day when the above is complete.
Great idea. I’ll probably get a jump on spring cleaning myself. Too bad I don’t have a basement. I have a feeling it would come in extremely handy.
Oh, and forgot, CLOSE THE PRIMARIES!
I guess that depends on your eschatology.
Are we trying to create God’s kingdom on Earth? If so, then I expect them to DO something and turn this ship around.
Or.
Are we going to get worse and worse until God Himself has to step in and fix it all to keep us from blowing it all to hell?
If that’s the view, then bring silver coins, beans, and ammo to a safe location and hope the early rapture folks are right.
It WILL BE one or the other.
We WILL stop it, or it WILL get worse.
So far... I have collected coins, bullets and beans. But I still work like we COULD pull it out.
NO WAY John McCain. If repubs take control of the Senate, we need to immediately start voicing our opinion on Senate Majority Leader. And find a way to do it effectively and convincingly.
I’m not worried. Our side believes in gun ownership.
As much as I despise him, The Messiah did not "steal" the election. McCain lost it. If it wasn''t for Palin, McCain would have lost 49 states.
Seniority.
He was our Party Nominee.
Who ELSE would they give it to?
That’s how those cowards work.
Mitch has it now, because of the complex formula, even though Hatch and Grassley have been there longer.
McCain, having BEEN the Nominee, gets points for that.
It WILL be a fight.
But look at the list of RINOs and see who we could get?
DeMint would be MY choice, but I don’t see that happening.
He’s 66th out of 100.
Filled my basement with aforementioned ammo and Gadsden flags.
Oh, and went Galt. I have cut my income by 90%, liquidated all assets, and have effectively become nontaxable.
A man with nothing to lose is a dangerous adversary.
Same thing we always do, NOTHING.
The streets will run red with the blood of Communists.
It could happen
At this point I see a constitutional convention as a necessity.
Since the start of the 20th Century, progressives incorporated the propaganda into the public schools that a constitutional convention is “Unthinkable. It would be controlled by radicals.” That is not just a lie, but a damned lie.
A constitutional convention would be very conservative, and indifferent to social issues as compared to reestablishing a proper balance of power between the federal government, the State governments, and the people.
It would amount to two things: First, to reduce the scale and scope of the federal government and the national debt by a tremendous amount. Second, to perform maintenance on the constitution that has been needed over its 200+ years of life.
The States are already moving in this direction, forming issue oriented “10th Amendment” blocs, that all point in the same direction.
But once the State legislatures are aware of the major changes that need to be made, they will have to debate among themselves, and between States, which changes they want. Unless 38 States are in agreement *first*, even calling a constitutional convention would be frivolous.
This means that when the delegates arrived at the convention, they would already have a draft in hand, read it out loud and vote to approve it, then return it to their States for approval. Once 38 States had voted to approve it, the constitutional convention would have the responsibility to relieve any federal official, officer, judge or employee who refused to carry out the changes to the government, or had been dismissed. Likewise they could vote to imprison anyone attempting to subvert the constitutional convention, without trial or appeal.
Make no mistake that this would be a deadly serious event, because every villain on the planet would want to influence, disrupt, conduct surveillance on, or undermine it. And many of them already work for the federal government.
You mean as in 1994? Good question, that.
Hot lead,, and cold steel
