"NO!"
5-10-2005 | B4Ranch

Posted on 05/10/2005 12:25:45 PM PDT by B4Ranch

Is there anyone here who cannot pronounce the word "No"?

I rather doubt there is. Ladies are generally familiar with it. "Sweetheart, may I kiss you goodnight", she replied, "No!"

Men have used it to strangers many times. "Sir, may I have one of your cigarettes and borrow a dollar?" He replied, "No."

This is a word we have all heard since we were tiny children, and one we have all said, probably too many times to our kids.

Question: Do you have a problem speaking this word to persons of authority? Have you ever told a police officer, "No, you may not search my home or car without a currently dated warrant.

Have you ever told your boss at work, "No, I cannot work overtime this weekend. We have prepaid reservations and my family is expecting that we use them. Sorry, Boss, maybe next time."

May I suggest that we all write a very short letter to our officials, local, state and federal. Do you have a 37 cent stamp? We may gather quite a bit of attention using this one word. Imagine, just one word could become a rallying cry for America's patriots and stop our country from declining again. "NO!"

Perhaps they may find it amusing but I think if they receive a few thousand of these "NO!" letters, someone in their office is going to awaken and ask what are the voters saying "NO!" about?

Be sure to include your name, address and phone number. Should they become curious enough to perhaps wonder if we are saying "NO!" to their re-election or "NO!" to contributing to the party funds, they might just give us a call and ask what "NO!" means.

That will be our opportunity to tell them we want them to start using this word much more often. Even a politician should know this word. It is easily pronounced, easily spelt, "NO!". What does it mean? Just what it says, "NO!"

"NO!" to open borders and illegal aliens in America.
"NO!" to all public benefits for the illegal aliens in America.
"NO!" to tax increases.
"NO!" to re-election if you don't get off your ass and start doing your job.
"NO!" to larger government.
"NO!" to CAFTA.
"NO!" to increasing the national debt!

Illegals should be able to work and stay in America unmolested by ICE agents.
"NO!" No reason to go off into a long spiel. We've heard it before. "NO!"

"I'm trying to help America with my new plans to bring immigrants into the work force."

"NO!" You are not.

"Immigrants should be allowed instate college prices."

"NO!" They are not better than American citizens, so "NO!"

You fill in the rest with your thoughts.

"NO!"

"NO!"

"NO!"

"NO!"

"NO!"

There was a guy on FR named Chancellor Palpatine?

Oh, yeah...

Who do you think he was named for?

OK, maybe more like 1.5 years. Yeah, it was fall of '03. I forget what the big hardcore issue was, but there was a TS like battle he was involved in bigtime.

Hey, I have no problem with an aggressive approach to the WOT, but blowing up the planet might just be a tad excessive.

I still wonder what actually got him banned (and what his current FR name is).

Of course.
BTW, I was referencing this thread (not posted by yours truly):

I suppose it could have been something along the same lines as the turnip comment.

I saw a hell of a lot nastier stuff than that in the last round of TS Stuff that didn't get the post pulled, never mind getting the people suspended or banned.

I don't think he's back at all. He seemed to have a style all his own. Intelligent, but real caustic. Sure there are people here like that now, but not quite the same.

Of course online, you never know.

>>The following two points:

* "NO!" to open borders and illegal aliens in America.

and

* "NO!" to tax increases.

Are mutually contradictory.

You're going to need to hire a lot more federal employees to do the former. They have to be paid.<<

Why did you stop thinking at Step One?

Remove 20 million illegal aliens from America and poof away go all the federal jobs that currently are in place providing them with federal services. I'd guess it probably numbers close to a million federal employees. I'll trade those for ICE agents any day of the week!

Depending upon which state you live in, again, poof away go police officers, probation officers, judges, court clerks, prison guards, translators in every state, count and city office there is in existence, teachers, clerks at the Dept of Motor Vehicles or what ever the name is in your state, welfare clerks, and you-name-it positions in every other agency that we have now to try for some resemblance of order. I am sure every department will reduce their staffing costs by some percentage. Some more than others certainly.

When was the last time your property taxes were reduced because they didn't need that much money to fund the offices?

I don't wonder. I'm just glad he's banned.

I've never encountered someone so anti-life who still pretended to be a conservative.
