Man, you know... If that actually worked we might not be in this situation.

Oh wait...

You know the level of your own activity but I doubt you know the level of activity of 15-20,000 FReepers.
Even those who have been 'vocal' I'd bet MOST have been occasional and sporadic about it. If a third of our group committed to organized, regular, persistent action we could make an impact. Especially considering the duplication principle previously mentioned.

Based on human nature and my FR activity since 1999, it's my guess that less than 10% send more than 1 conservative email a month to a legislator.
That less than 1% send a conservative Facebook message to anyone.
That less than .01% send a conservative Twitter message to anyone.
That less than 10% regularly volunteer or donate money to support conservative candidates.
That many would be just as happy with a RINO like Romney or Huckabee as POTUS instead of a Palin or Pence.

FReepers are wonderfully conservative people but they are still people, and for most people talk is cheap, action costly and few will pay the cost. Even FReepers.

If liberty is to be saved in America it will only be done from the grassroots,
like with the Tea Party
and the FReepers.

This forum can no longer be only a theoretical debating society where we all bitch & moan. Some part of it has to mobilize and act with persistent regularity. FReepers must transform into people of action. Our country needs us, now.

I'm not qualified to lead this effort but I do see the need for it. Some FReeper former General or Colonel with military type organizational skill must step up to take charge.

FReepers! Liberty needs us. America needs us. Who will take action?
