Tea Parties.
Limbaugh/Levin.
Blue Dogs.
Anti-Abortion Dems.
Yeah, whatever.
Nothing Accomplished.
Yawn.
Nothing accomplished. We keep losing every battle. All indications are, with immigration reform and more than 50% of Americans (and climbing) dependent on government, our votes could be diluted to nothing by 2012 (assuming we have a real election), the way things are going.
B-Chan, a prolific and wise Freeper, is right. Its going to take the system collapsing financially under the weight of its own absurdity for real change to happen because Obama is correct in his judgment: The vast majority of Americans will bend over and will not seriously fight bigger, fatter, dumber government, including so-called "conservatives."
It'll take a financial crisis.

Yep. Funny, I can complete identify with the anger of Francisco d'Anconia and the joy and peace he felt destroying it all. I feel the exact same way.
“It’ll take a financial crisis.”
That Obama creates, and that they use to finally own us Chairman Mao style.
“To paraphrase Thatcher: now is not the time to go wobbly.”
THATCHER LOST!
Wake up: Look at the UK today. It’s as though Thatcher never existed. It is socialist and broke.
Are you really are this politically stupid? The GOP has not had unfettered control over the US Government since the 1920s. Unlike the Democrats who have super majority control over the US Government now, as they did in the latter half of the 1970s, The GOP has not had complete control of the US Government in most Freepers life time.
If you are waiting for Armageddon to save you, that is completely stupid.
When the babies are going amok that is specifically when adults need to step in and say, no. We can't afford this, we won't do this, and if you persist, we put you in the corner for a time out.. or even perhaps smack your tushie to get you stop and think that no one is exempt from the rules.
Yup. And even then, as the Red Guards kick in the doors, we will be checking our etiquette books to make sure we are acting above board.
Are you aware that most of the government dole in Alaska is natives getting payoffs from the government for land? That deal was struck long before Palin came into play. Besides the natives probably figure the government owes them. Who knows. Anyway they have been getting Indian checks for a long time.
Yea yea yea, we all sat on our thumbs and watched this happened. A lot of us did a lot! And we still got clobbered. When you can vote yourself the wealth of others, others become the biggest losers. F OFF to all the people who keep saying it’s all our fault. Tell that to South Africa.

And what does that tell you about the electorate? Limp-wristed GOP presidential candidates — Dole/McCain/ShrubI and II, etc. What does that tell you?
You really ARE this politically ignorant!
The RX drug bill allows people to use their Medicare to buy PRIVATE health insurance to cover RX drugs. It was the 1st successful step towards privatizing a US Government Entitlement program in our history.
But as usual, you dogmatic purists were so busy screaming your chicken little dogmas you could not be bother to learn even the 1st facts about the program.
None so foolish as those who think themselves "wise".
You’re scaring the women and children. Keep your pecker up!

I agree with you 100% but everytime I say what you said, I get called a RINO. LOL
Hate to break it to you, your all are not even remotely "wise".
You are a collection of the most wonderfully ignorant Freepers I have ever met. You all are so busy spewing your doom laden dogams, you cannot even be bothered to learn basic facts!
Instead of standing on you soap box declaiming the doom of the Republic, you all should try spending at least some of your time learning even the most basic facts about what is, and has been, going on in DC.
That would be "wise" of you.
ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!
ENOUGH WITH THE DEFEATISM!
Real patriots fight for what’s right. We might lose, but surrender is simply not an option. If we surrender, we lose. If we fight, we may win.
Land of the free? Not if we don’t fight for liberty.
Home of the BRAVE? Not if we’re going to act like a bunch of whining babies in the face of the enemy.
Remember this. Democrats can’t deliver what they promise. They can vote whatever they want, but they can’t overturn the laws of economics forever.
What will they do when more and more productive citizens simply decide it’s not worth the effort? What will they do when thousands of doctors decide it’s better to retire? Socialism only works so long as the givers of largess have productive people to feed off of.
I’m just one person, but my family already chooses to earn less than it could. We’ll do volunteer work for free (very rewarding stuff, btw) before we’ll take more pay and give the takers more.
Again, the Democrats cannot deliver the goods. We’ll either defeat them now, or we’ll defeat them later when they break the bank. When it collapses, who is going to be better off, the welfare moms who suckle on a broken government or the conservatives who already work hard and live right? We’ll do just fine—we’re survivors!
Never before in my life have I witnessed a government more out of touch with economic reality, and never before have I witnessed conservatives so fired up. Even if we’re in the minority (and I don’t think we are), we have the power to take government back. 90% of pissed off conservatives is better than 75% of half-hearted leftists, and we ARE PISSED OFF.
LOL!!
pwn3d!
You must spend some time in DU. That is their favorite name for President Bush.
I could not be there with you, kevao, but thank you very much for representing me on Capitol Hill. May God bless you!
And then you lost the first battle and instead of fighting on you opt for preemptive surrender? Some how I find it hard to believe YOU did a lot of anything.
Do us a favor and go over to the other side now...and take your little buddy B-Chan with you...maybe if you kiss enough ass you can save your hide;
...We ask not your counsel nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen. -Samuel Adams
