I recently finished reading Bill Sammon's "Misunderestimated". It's a microbiography of President George W. Bush's FIRST TERM. I don't want to give away more of storyline than necessary, so let's just say Mr. Sammon describes a confrontation that occured when President Bush appeared in Washington State.
If it were simply a solitary event, one might say it was one of those things. But if you start to think about how many violent protests have occured, how much venom is spewed forth at President Bush and the American conservatives in general, it leaps from anecdotal to a broad pattern of violence, threats and intimidation.
How long ago was it, a Democrat Club in Palm Springs, FL, took out an add and demanded Secretary of War, Donald Rumsfeld, be placed against a wall and shot. Now, if it weren't for the fact that I imagine this group as somewhat near a branch of "Hell's Grannies", I might actually take them seriously.
And that is the very point. We don't take them seriously or we must somehow stay above it and take the high road. To that I say, dangle clusters. If I find out there is a wolf in my town, I hunt it down and kill it. Without remorse.
But somehow, no, to confront these looney tunes isn't prudent. So, they get bolder, we snivel in the corner and talk about principles. As far as I am concerned, doing the right thing IS PRINCIPLE #1.
It's time to identify these people for what they are, domestic terrorists. It's easy to talk tough if they are wearing headscarves but not if they are wearing blue jeans. Uh-Uh. No more.
I've come to the conclusion the ones who talk patience are sleepers who have infiltrated our movement. The time has come for blood and fire.
Well, I'd hold off on the blood and fire unless absolutely necessary, but you are 100% correct that the reason the Leftists have been able to do so much actual damage in the guise of protesting is that we have let any alleged protest become a get-out-of-jail-free card, especially with regards to riot-related behavior.
Restore some consequences and there'll be a lot less of it.
CWII ping.
In anticipation of Fall 2004, turn ammunition into skill.

It is time to hold people accountable in a BIG way. Time to take off the gloves. Time to get nasty (where's Janet when you need her).
I think one thing is to show the democrats for the kooks that they are.
WE ARE NOT EVENLY DIVIDED. There are only 19% or less admitted liberals. 80 percent of the country does not support leftist values.
The notion of an evenly divided nation is a propaganda tool of democrats to conceal their vote fraud. (according to morris as much as 25%)
What all the talke shows and Fox need to do is a lunatic watch. What is the insane democrate de jour saying? and play it over and over.
Alas, principles have changed. Doing the right thing is either a federal crime or a personal tort.
I believe this election will further divide the democratic party, IF WE ARE DILIGENT in pointing out the FAR LEFT RADICAL AGENDA. WE all need to make flyers that show Kerry/Edwards positions (including voting on important issues like gay marriage, partial birth abortion, etc) and contrast it with Bush/Cheney Positions.
We need to stuff mailboxes, place on windshields in Walmart's, and fairground's in our communities, and explain Farenheit 9/11...all on one page, concise and READABLE...it will do more for our position than bullets or guns, for which we will be attacked by the left of the virtues of gun control!@
quick examples: A congresswoman who tells Fidel Castro not to extradite a cop killer back to America, calling the killer a "freedom fighter." Joe Biden recently stating that the only good to come of the Iraq war will be a "defeated demoralized" America that will "not dare" threaten Syria or Iran. Get back to me when republicans denmand their resignations.
Instead, Kerry plans on naming Biden Secretary of State. I submit that a political neophyte would hang Biden's quote around Kerry's neck, yet the great republican party chooses to praise Biden.
what do you consider the conditions to be so that blood and fire become appropriate?
They're appropriate when human lives are in imminent danger, or if one's own property is being destroyed despite one's warnings. Otherwise a camera and a trip to the sheriff are more appropriate.
Hmmm . . . well, CWII may very well be coming. Don't know how else the country will ever rid itself of the extreme left. But it's not a certainty and this guy really needs to put on his thinking cap and keep his powder dry, among other things. It's nothing to look forward to, and it's a fool who goes off half-cocked on his own. When will the time be right? When senators and congressmen and generals begin making the obvious preparations, as before. Not until.

A mothers, fathers, and students go into debt up to their eyeballs to have attend universities across the USA which are little more than bastions of communism.
There is no reason for a feminist studies program at any university.
Law schools have only professors who are leftist refugees from the real world. And these are the anti-americans teaching the future judges. (that is if you can ever become a judge without going through a government job track)
The only way to kill the left is to kill their money. This means no money for endorsements, no tickets at the box office, no advertisers.
Want to kill the left, avoid martha stewart. Tell Kmart to dump her.
We did it with the dixie(who?)chix, woopie, and danny glover.
We also must build up the right. We DO give our money to the gibsons, selecks, and Hilsdales.
Perhaps the RNC platform should include a plank about supporting pro-republican businesses.
Restore some consequences and there'll be a lot less of it."
Bingo...
Additionally, there have been numerous indictable occassions of which treason and aiding and abetting the enemy were and are still being ignored -- and that's just the emboldened RAT politicians!
Serious violations of U.S law continue to be flouted, which of course only encourage political anarchism further.
The case that we should thank Mr. and Mrs. KLINTOON for their "leadership" in this area is quite strong.
I am amazed at how divided this country is. I'm 29 and I never remember any time when things "felt" like the way they do now. It seems we are all in a pressure cooker and things can't continue like this indefinitely. My mom is a hard liberal and I recently sent her pictures of some of the good things we've done in Iraq (the "Gotta See This" pics). She calls them "romanticized" and said they don't show the real face of war. She doesn't want any more pictures. It makes me sad.
Left ain't bold...Left's shrill...MUD
Oh, stop being such a boob. (Did I say that?)
;-)
$710.96... The price of freedom.
I'm 46 and things do "feel" worse than ever in my experience. That said, I'm still a bit too young to have experienced the rage of the Leftists during the Vietnam war. I haven't heard much of our troops being spat upon and called baby killers now, as they were back then. It seems, and this is only my perception, that we have far more politicians that are blatant, hard-core Leftist Scumbags than we had back then, and they are the ones who are leading the Marxist Charge these days.
I'm mad about it, but I don't have the motivational rage inside me, yet, that the Leftist Scumbags have. They are fired up by rage and hatred. Maybe rage and hatred are not the traits of conservatives...until pushed to the edge.
If a common criminal did some of the things these thugs do, a judge would tack on 5 yrs just for bad behavour.
