This may not make sense, but I truly believe I am not the only one who is being prodded by an inner self to put an end to the madness. The dream I had is convoluted, but my reaction to it when I a awoke is what matters.
I found myself in a room where my IQ was being tested. The questions were vague, and my answers were even more so. It seemed like I finished the 25 question test in record time, so I used the allotted time remaining to skim over my answers to be sure I was comfortable with them. I handed to test to the petite blond at the desk, and was told to wait in another room while she scored it.
In the waiting room there was a television so I started channel surfing, but soon realized that every channel was either about the weather or fashion design. Since the weather was almost as boring as the fashion channels, I decided to turn the television off. I then noticed the magazines on the small round table in the middle of the room. I looked through them and settled for one on sports. As I flipped through the pages I came across an article about a football player who lost a race to a lame horse.
It was an interesting account of a young running back who thought he could beat a lame horse, but lost. As stupid as I thought the article was, I stuck with it just to kill time. That is until the football player started blaming the horses black trainer for a being racist towards Asian football players. I remember thinking, "Why does everyone make stupid accuses for their own failures in life?" That's when I tossed the magazine back on the table, and looked through the others to find something to read.
All the other magazines were just as stupid, so instead I stood up and walked over to a window. Looking down to the street below I noticed that all the people were wearing the same color rain coats. I looked up at the sky and it was completely sunny with no clouds in sight. Wow, people are strange these days I was thinking. I was beginning to get a weird feeling inside me, as I wondered why I agreed to take this stupid test. All of a sudden the door opened and a short fat guy with a green suit came in to tell me he would share the results of the test with me.
We sat down at this conference table I didn't even notice a few moments ago. He picked up the binder and looked at it real close and he took his time getting to my score. Flipping through it from page to page as if he was looking of someones number in a phone book. All the while he mumbled under his breath about things only God could know. Eventually he stopped flipping the pages and laid the binder down ever so slowly on the table. He then turned the binder so it was upside down to him, and slid it across the long table in front of me so I could look at it.
As I stared at the page, I noticed that it looked like a calculus equation had to do when I was in College. I looked across the table and asked him, "What the hell is this?" He folded his hands on the table and in a squeaky voice that could only come from a pointed head intellectual, he said that it was my score. He then pointed to the page and told me that of I looked at the bottom line of the equation, I would notice that I wrote the equation wrong and thus I only got a score of 97.
I looked back and said, "And?" To which he replied that I needed a score of 98 to be accepted in their club. Since my IQ score was off my one point I was not getting in their club. I told him that was stupid. He looked at me with a smug look and said sorry, that's the rules sir. Fine I said, I don't want to be in your stupid club anyway. I slid the binder back across the table at him and got up to leave. As I walked out the door I was thinking, who the hell names a club Mensa anyway? What a bunch of moronic losers.
I left the building, and as I walked to my car I was thinking about the reasons I wanted in their club. I could not come up with any, so why did I waste my time I wondered. Well I got in my car, turned on the radio, and started to drive home. I got maybe a block away when I began to get irritated by all the people wearing yellow rain coats on a sunny day who were in my way.
I finally had enough and rolled down my window to yell at them to get out of the road. Next thing I know a wet towel flew into the car and got stuck on my steering wheel. The stupid was real wet and began flapping in the wind while hitting me in the face. I started pushing the towel away from my face so I could see the road, and then I woke up to learn that one of my dogs, Jasmine, was up on the couch licking my face. I then realized I fell asleep watching some stupid movie on TV.
This is not the first strange dream I have had in the last few weeks, and I doubt it will be the last. However, I have come to the conclusion that I have reached a critical stage in my life in how I deal with stupid people who think they are smarter than I am. People who believe they know what is best for me. People who have the power, but know not how to use it. People who, in truth, are more afraid of me than I ever was of them. People who need to be replaced, because they are just obstructing our chance at real change.
I can not be the only one who's dreams have consistently been loaded with people that need to be eliminated from this planet. Seems like all my dreams lately are about stupid things with stupid people in them. I don't mean eliminated in a life vs death description, but eliminated from having the power they currently enjoy. As much as I would like to say I am speaking of Democrats, I am in actuality speaking of Republicans, and you all know who needs to be eliminated from power in our party.
So, as I contemplated the meaning of this stupid dream, I have come to the conclusion that God is telling me it is time to stop the madness. How do we do that? Well, I think that we as conservatives need to start fighting fire with fire. It is time for all of us true conservatives to stop complaining and start conspiring together on how to take down the evil powers that be.
It is obvious that the Republican establishment is part of the conspiracy to destroy that which we need done to fix this country. So the only recourse we have left is to start a new party. Yes, it is beyond time. With Trump as President, we have what we need to take the fight to the bastards. If we do not take advantage of the anger by Americans over what is taking place in DC now, we will never be able to again. It is now or never. It cannot happen if we do not have a willing President to help.
We need Trump to see the writing on the wall, and we need to begin the movement now. We have the numbers, and we can make it happen if we are united. Many details need to be worked out, but it is either now or never. If not, then many of us will soon be going to our graves knowing our children and grandchildren will be slaves to the establishment.
Let them who have ears hear, and those with a sense of patriotism understand that the time has come to change the status quo. Tomorrow will be, not may be, but will be too late.

Leftist chicks were always easy and generally good lays.
We called them patchouli babes.
You’d think they were STD-riddled. Of course, today, the more left they are, the uglier they are, and usually hate men.
STD’s? We are talking about the relatively innocent days of the 60’s. If I were younger I wouldn’t do anything with the lefty skanks of today.
God! The sh!t I used to get away with. Letting them think they could talk me(or convince me by other means), a young Infantry officer, into deserting and coming over to the antiwar side.
But it wasn’t much of a challenge. Lefty chicks were/are invariably stupid.
Excerpt:
Broadly speaking, the Dunning-Kruger Effect is defined as “a cognitive bias in which unskilled individuals suffer from illusory superiority, mistakenly rating their ability much higher than is accurate. This bias is attributed to a metacognitive inability to recognize their [own] ineptitude.”
The actors James Woods and Tommy Lee Jones, and probably Clint Eastwood, are very, very intelligent, and wise enough to know they do best in their chosen field. Donal Trump is not highly intelligent, but he is a very cunning schemer, which is different. He is not the Washington or Lincoln or Eisenhower one needs as a leader of a compelling fraction of the lesser as well as more able citizens of the nation.
The "status quo"? By definition it is what it is, and given time, changes.
At the local level, Mensa is primarily a social outlet. Here in Colorado Springs we have monthly meetings, sometimes with a guest speaker, games nights (poker is a favorite), dinners together, and other activities as they occur to members. I can honestly say I haven’t met a finer group of people. At the national level, Mensa hosts colloquiums, awards scholarships, and participates in various studies of intelligence.
Only by praying.
But we’re approaching a time described as “when the transgressors are come to the full”. Never mind Jesus’ description of them being “as the days of Noah”.
2 Chronicles 7:14
If my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.
Someone has me on a ping list so that’s why I’m here.
This is a good read and an important thread.
IF is the key word here. God promises but it’s conditioned on people doing that IF thing.
Prayer is always good.
I don’t know the reasons but we all know Donald Trump was an “impossibility” as POTUS; yet, here he is.
Now, yes, look at the mess.
But everything was already all messed up and it’s culture as opposed to just politics.
So there’s reason to pray as well as try to turn selves and others toward the God our Founders knew.
Most of my dreams are me wandering around old college campus buildings or buildings where I used to work, looking for the rest rooms.
Invariably the rest rooms are closed or no longer even exist any more. So I keep looking. Other floors? Other buildings? Maybe a big tree or clump of bushes to go behind? Nothing.
Eventually I wake up and realize I need to get up and relieve myself.
Probably no earth shattering revelations there...
At least you wake up first.
My sister is a teacher and my wife works at our school district. It is really amazing that many of their colleagues espouse true, solid conservative beliefs...but, year after year after year vote Dem and spout their talking points. Many people are weak minded and simply cannot see truth right in front of them.
I would sooner purge the RINOS than start a new party. But the only way to do that is a national movement of conservatives, well funded who can primary the RINOS and beat the left.
Only then can you start to change things. My first order of business would be to kill freedom of the press. The press hides behind the first amendment while supporting the destruction of it in favor of the state. If they cannot do the job of the people, they shouldn’t have the job.
Single payer with a private option is far superior to what we have now.
Single payer without private option is the Soviet system.
We will have one or the other, try to figure out which you prefer.

Exactly right.
The only correction to this is bloodshed.
“The tree of Liberty must oft times be refreshed by the blood of patriots, and tyrants.”
The anti-Nebraska party.
I'm OK with that.
There's never been a country run by ‘self appointed elites’ that didn't devolve into something horrible. The only exceptions are monarchies - which seem to work because the people running them are fulfilling a duty rather than hungering for control. And yeah, we could choose better leaders or create systems that would encourage better people to run... always room for improvement.
Would be happy to see ideas on how to make that possible.
