I think Bush is sincere in his agenda, I just think that agenda is totally wrong. Having said that, nothing will stop me from joining with other's to rid our nation of the terrible threat this she creature poses to our nation.
We need to be more activist, even if that means demonstrations. We are so use to convienence, but, we cannot phone in and place an order for a more conservative nation like ordering a pizza. It's going to cost us something.
I don't know if everyone felt as funny as I did parking my car, pulling my home made sign out of the back and walking over to a group of strangers to protest the 2000 election.
Before I reached them, two couples stopped me to read my sign and showed their disbelief and displeasure that I , a conservative ordinary looking American type, was taking to the streets. It's just not done in polite society. This type of thing is left for liberals, minorities, anarchists, and radicals. What's a everyday housewife think she's doing making a spectacle out of herself on a public street?
That was the most defining day, not only my life, but the other's present there. Things had gotten so bad in this nation that the average joe was taking to the streets in cities across the nation. I'm sure it frightened everyone from the media who ignored us while no doubt having long conversations about what this new development means, to the heads of the DNC.
Fox News sprang into being and the ripples began to spread. When Bush won the election we do what we always do, get lazy and complacent, go back to business as usual, but we cannot afford to do that. 2008 is going to be upon us in a heart beat, and we have a limited amount of time to insure that this she creature will not be running for anything but cover. If our elected representatives will not respond to us, then we do need to get back to rally's and demonstrations.
There is nothing more frightening to see than the working class, backbone of the nation, up in arms over an issue, they are not use to seeing it in D.C. or the media. It is certainly something they need to see far more often if we are to avoid either destruction or a civil war.

1200+ and counting.
it looks like we have a concensus here. it looks like critical mass has been reached, and resolve has been set, and we have dug in for the inevitable righting of what is wrong in this great land.

What I'm upset about is my 20 Democrat: me ratio in my family. It's ripping us apart - or, rather, would TOTALLY rip us apart about now but I'm not mouthing off as much as I usually do, right now.
This truly is a fight for the nations' soul, and the Rats have a horrific tractor-beam on the minds of the otherwise decent Southern Democrats.

Well, we certainly disagree about the President...not that I agree with every single thing he does but I share the majority of his agenda with him. I also think he's one hell of a leader and a man of deep conviction and character. That said, demonstrating in the streets in 2000 was a first for me, too. I had never done such a thing and never even felt moved to do so before then. I would be glad to do it again, though, if need be. hillary clinton is a danger to America. Therefore, we must do everything in our power to stop her. The anger on this thread must not die. What we all do now will help to determine the future of our country.
