Excellent post, Awgie. I agree with you 100 percent. We are in a war against progressivism, statism and the degradation of our culture, by the radical left. They have infested our government and our public institutions. They control our colleges and universities and are intent on indoctrinating students in their Marxist ideology.

This is a war we must win.

Ridicule is a very powerful rhetorical weapon. We see it used against us all the time. It results in putting us on the defense while distracting us from promoting our positions.

I would like to see more open Ridicule of the Left and it's absurd ideas.

Senator Paul rand was apparently thwarted in his brave attempt to appeal to the Black College students at Howard University.

Instead of being respectful he should have used sarcasm and ridicule to hammer home his point...”So let me get this correct, you actually have more faith in an out of control bloated Federal Government Bureaucracy than you have faith in your own ability!?

Here is what Dr. Ben Carson renowned African American Brain Surgery says about personal success, “Success is determined not by whether or not you face obstacles, but by your reaction to them. And if you look at these obstacles as a containing fence, they become your excuse for failure. If you look at them as a hurdle, each one strengthens you for the next.”

I disagree with you young man, history shows that those that trust and rely on government at the expense of their own individual initiative, become SLAVES to that government.”

Imagine the reaction if the King with no clothes had been exposed to laughter and derision as he displayed his new garments. We've got naked kings running all over the place telling us how beautiful they are dressed in their cloaks of America Hating, Homosexual Affirming, Abortion Promoting Rags.

We need to put them on the defensive with strong unapologetic language. Make them choke on their Latte Frappes as we laugh in their faces and refuse to bow down to their ignorance.

I didn’t know what other box Old Sarge was referring to but the inevitable box that comes to mind that we will all face is a wooden box buried 6 feet deep.

You see the Left’s reaction to the death of Maggie Thatcher. What does that tell you? They defile and disrespect her even in death.

They don't have the humanity to acknowledge her in the slightest positive way. Their hatefulness knows no bounds.

They are eager to dance on our graves.

They are the architects of death and destruction. They cannot build and create they can only tear down and destroy.

That should be obvious and it should be pointed out.

The highest achievements a man or woman can accomplish is to start a business and start a family.

But the Left has targeted both of these traditional American Institutions.

That is maddening enough, but to see them attack Family, Free Enterprise, The Constitution, The BOY SCOUTS! And to do so with impunity, immunity and brazen cockiness is evidence of a coming disaster.

Our voices need to rise and they don't need to be polite!

American conservatism — which is to say classical liberalism — is weathering a leftist tidal surge of world-historical magnitude and we shouldn’t be dismayed that it’s a rough go.

It’s like the earthquake followed by the tsunami. We made it through the earthquake, which was the era of explicit socialism, which came and failed, and now we’re dealing with the tsunami.

We just need to ride it out without caving to the “we’re doomed” mindset.

We’re not entitled to an easy win just because we’re right. Life on earth is hard and we need to be prepared for that. We need to be tenacious.

I guess Kruschev was pretty prophetic when speaking about the US: “We will take America without firing a shot…….We will BURY YOU! We can’t expect the American People to jump from Capitalism to Communism, but we can assist their elected leaders in giving them small doses of Socialism, until they awaken one day to find that they have Communism. We do not have to invade the United States, we will destroy you from within.”

I was trying to remember that quote.

That’s the attitude we need.

There would be no communism without Wall Street. Sounds “crazy”, but I would recommend some research into J P Morgan, American International Corporation at 120 Broadway, etc.

Sorry, the commies didn't get it then and they don't get it know.

They will never win.

There are millions of us, well armed and when backed into a corner, will eventually fight AND WE WILL WIN.

Don't mess with a completely ticked-off conservative, you'll lose.

Also I see a good saying,” We’re surrounded, the poor bastards”.

But remember, libs live in cities...which need power...and water.

All of which is supplied via long logistic lines.

I know. Although we had pretty good numbers at every protest against DeathCare here locally, how many people always had some excuse. I took vacation days, worked flex hours, did whatever it took to get to 99% of the protests. At least I went down fighting on that one.

But — and I do understand how most of us just want to be left alone but we haven’t had that luxury in a long time — how many won’t show up for anything, then sit at home and wonder how the Bolsheviks completely overran us.

I keep hearing these stothought’s everyone has regarding the state of our Country.

What I never see is any thoughts about organized effort to fight back.

The left fights for new laws that support their agenda and what laws they cannot get passsed , they fight in the courts to overturn laws that protect our agenda (traditional America)

They are far ahead of us. We laughed at Obama being a “Community Organizer”. But I will be the first one to admit that he is damn good at it and the left is organized on almost every level.

The Tea Party that was our hope going forward is not as organized as it once was. This needs to change.

I am stating right now, here on FR, that I would like to see us, and everyone who shares our values, organize in some way to fight back.

Who is in?

Thanks, I was coming back here just now to see if you meant a box of ammo and you did.

I agree with you 110%. I remember in early grade school hearing that quote from Kruschev. We thought the guy was showing signs of dementia and could not believe he could make such an outlandish statement. I really hate that we are now having this conversation. You are right...I think that they grossly underestimate us that want to keep a republic in this country.
