Folks, whether you avoid thinking about it or not, we may be governed by socialists in all three branches of our government next year. We are going to get a Liberal administration one way or another. We already have Liberal judges all over the country. In the worst-case scenario, we would also get a bigger-margin Democratic congress with Liberals in the leadership positions. As conservatives we don't feel doom and gloom all the time as Liberals do (except now they have 'hope and change'). Lives go on. A good thing about being a conservative is that we prepare for a rainy day.
We can't do anything to change the mess that is going on in our country overnight. It is an accumulation of the ills in the society, planned or unplanned, from mal-education to entitlement mentality, Oprahfication, dishonest media, immorality, multi-culturalism, political correctness, motivations initiated by envy, fear and/or hatred and so on. It seems that all the fruits of these errors are going to ripen at the same time.
Let's brainstorm what may happen and prepare for it right now. We still have almost a year to do whatever necessary to protect our families and ourselves. Hopefully, we still have strength left afterwards to reclaim our country back to be a shining city upon the hill again.

In essence, your first web click would be to an anonymizer site and then you do all your surfing from there.
The anonymizer strips any info about your computer and replaces it with bogus IP information. Anyone tracking your web habits will be stopped at the anonymizer address.
I've not used one, but know they exist and have the address of one. I've have been meaning to try it for some time know.
Well, the last time we had a Dem in office (Bill Clinton) he brought us the Branch Davidian and Ruby Ridge incidents. Also,among other mischievous activities, there was extreme pressure placed on FFL owners so to force the small players out of business. The list was long. Should either Hillary or Obama become POTUS either will select an extremely agressive and anti-gun AG for sure. The shenanigans that went on under Clinton will be child’s play this go around. Don’t count on the ATF, FBI, or the military for that matter to look out for your interests. The ATF and FBI will follow their pay checks. The military are bound by oath to obey their commander in chief and thereby will do as ordered. As for private citizen “Joe Six Pack”. he will “talk the talk”, but it’s quite a stretch to believe that he will “walk the talk”. And so it goes...
www.backwoodshome.com is a great site - they publish a magazine too.
I can think of tons of places and they all have sun and sand the year round. The women are attractive, building a house is more affordable than here, food stuffs are cheaper, all the amenities you have here are available there. Most importantly tho, you won't have any desire to get involved in their politics..........
You'll just relax and enjoy your retirement.......
Your FRiends think you are smart.
Here is part two of the story...

Who is John Galt?
Yep, that one is a classic.
"Who is John Galt?" is the first line in "Atlas Shrugged."
Not quite. We can do little that will result in overnight changes, but there are small, almost imperceptable steps that can and should indeed be made. And there are larger ones that offer greater results over the long term.
We'll need both approaches, and they'll have to be applied as and as determined by those taking thoise steps- not everyone has the same talents or opportunities that others may have, but everyone can do something.
How about Poland? They’ve already lived through it.
Do they have plans to protect themselves from another Russian invasion?
Could you provide any more info or verification of this?

Text [Via Washington Post letter *here*:]
Second Amendment an individual right
The U.S. Supreme Court will soon decide D.C. v. Heller, the first case in more than 60 years in which the court will confront the meaning of the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Although Heller is about the constitutionality of the D.C. handgun ban, the court's decision will have an impact far beyond the District ("Promises breached," Op-Ed, Thursday).
The court must decide in Heller whether the Second Amendment secures a right for individuals to keep and bear arms or merely grants states the power to arm their militias, the National Guard. This latter view is called the "collective rights" theory.
A collective rights decision by the court would violate the contract by which Montana entered into statehood, called the Compact With the United States and archived at Article I of the Montana Constitution. When Montana and the United States entered into this bilateral contract in 1889, the U.S. approved the right to bear arms in the Montana Constitution, guaranteeing the right of "any person" to bear arms, clearly an individual right.
There was no assertion in 1889 that the Second Amendment was susceptible to a collective rights interpretation, and the parties to the contract understood the Second Amendment to be consistent with the declared Montana constitutional right of "any person" to bear arms.
As a bedrock principle of law, a contract must be honored so as to give effect to the intent of the contracting parties. A collective rights decision by the court in Heller would invoke an era of unilaterally revisable contracts by violating the statehood contract between the United States and Montana, and many other states.
Numerous Montana lawmakers have concurred in a resolution raising this contract-violation issue. It's posted at progunleaders.org. The United States would do well to keep its contractual promise to the states that the Second Amendment secures an individual right now as it did upon execution of the statehood contract.
