Important "of course!" after-thought:
The Word of God (the PEN) is also referred to as the mighty Sword of the Lord....
A/2 -- relevant scripture in #248, thanks for posting.
Thanks for the ping!
So the "even if you reelect Bush in 2004 we're going to impeach him" didn't work. Thus the meltdown??
If you'll look among the ping lists, there is one for Civil War II... while such a thing is that last misery I would like for this country, it is well to keep advised of trends.
A great problem we have is that the Left has become unhinged- or at least, the people who are cited as representative of them are.
It used to be you could argue the basic More/Less Government positions, and when it settled, still be civil or even friends with them, but since the Clinton infestation in politics, that is no longer possible.
It's all about seizing power via any means, including outright lying, slandering opponents to weaken them, and repeating meme's and talking points ( however baseless & fact-free ) until enough voters are swayed.
The Other Side is still replaying "we wuz robbed" about both the 2000 & 2004 elections- do you recall any such nonsense ( besides momentary ) from us in 1992 or 1996? No.
You cannot debate with fanatics, and this worries me.
Or, let me place it in another context-- I've been a citizen-activist since Goldwater, and sometimes you win, and sometimes you lose-- you go on, and try better the next time.
But people who cannot believe, or accept, a loss-- combined with the politics of personal destruction-- trouble me.
I suspect if they ever get into power again, they'll never leave.
( You know, like the Clintons...)
Yet, you also know, our side will eventually lose, and having any party permanently ascendant is a bad thing, too.
Doug, it is time to take the bull by the horns. I think it is necessary for the country to know who MSM has aligned itself with. Who they are and what they stand for.
I am going to start with my US Senators, and Congressional Rep. Although they do not endorse this, they will know where the battlelines are.
I am going local. State Legislature and Gov. Small town paper and AJC. The more they knw, the more who tell them, the better for us.
If we all did this, maybe we can break to hold MSM has on the facts.
I have come to realize the 2nd Amendment was put in there to allow citizens to protect themselves against the government. Naive, liberal, democratic me, never thought I'd have to fight my government. duh Those evil Repugs knew they could not trust government! Well, it sure is starting to make sense, but "i'm still anti guns."
I wonder what it meant to them when Kennedy excoriated Ashcroft for saying the purpose of the 2nd amendment is to protect us from a tyrannical government? I was taught that in school and the dummies get it by an epiphany. But still the poster is "still anti-gun." which is a good thing in his case, I guess. Ignorant insanity.
"Poon Unit" has not been taken?
I was wondering about its availability.
*shrugs*
I do hope no one got saddled with that moniker
I may need to reconsider my position as a conservative. Sterling Plumpp is as heavy as they come when it comes to common sense and political affairs. /s
Should read, We the undersigned, then blah, blah, blah!
Hanoi Jane, Ed Asner....laughable.
Just replace "your govt" with "God" and you have the script that preceded the war in Heaven between God and Satan.
"Shheesh. Sounds like FR lately.
Lately?! I signed up in 2000, lurked since 97, and it has ALWAYS been that way at FR. Even Sean Hannity once stated that the venomous bickering and holler-matches between long-standing freepers was disgusting to him.
I just want to ask the left, do y'all have any guns? I'd hate to shoot unarmed people. Give me a fight!
I noticed a few Arab/Islamic names there. Probably just a coink-i-dink!
Beheader: "exit82, do have any final words to say?"
exit82: "Doug from Upland is a great guy, and a friend of mine"
Beheader: >swing< clunk.
You don't think it has gotten worse lately? I swear it has increased.
absolutely scary list of traitors.
where's scooter when we need him? /s
