“The left has exposed themselves. The media has exposed themselves. Yes, education, the welfare state and the growing government are huge problems. In 1980 the Soviet Union was the biggest problem in the world. One man changed that. Keep faith. Maybe McCain, can begin the process of curtailing government growth. Maybe, with him as CIC, the republicans won’t so easily forget the lesson of 2006. And maybe the next Reagen will be ready by the time McCain leaves office.”
Wonderful post. Thank you.

And HERE is tonight's thread on yesterday's filing.
IMMINENT GLOBAL ECONOMIC COLLAPSE——Unless Barney Frank writes a bill
__________________
That frightens me that I even wrote that. The world economy is depending on Barney Frank, who didn’t know a male prostitution was being run out of his basement, saw no problem with Fannie and Freddie (especially Fannie) and now when they collapse, he’s the go-to guy to get the bill passed. Only in America.
Only in America Hillary Clinton and the Democrat Party, who by virtue of the unearthing of the details of her health care proposal lost the House for the first time in 40 years are considered the “experts” on Health Care.
Only in Celebutard America. It doesn’t matter, the ultimate celebutard Barack Hussein Obama will NOT be elected.
I may be wrong, but I think Rush said this morning that he thinks Pelosi intended for the bill not to pass knowing it would probably cause a financial crisis and then blame the Republicans for it.
Do you agree?
Do you agree?
I hate to disagree with Rush, but, she KNEW the bill was unpopular but WANTED it to pass, badly. She tried to boondoggle Republicans into supporting it, but since it was unpopular she let any democrat who was not safe election wise vote AGAINST it.
She was going to get the massive power grab and socialism and have all democrats re-elected in their safe seats who voted for it AND have democrats in the not safe seats be re-elected who voted AGAINST it
e Republicans who voted for that bill would be in big trouble and she knew it, that was the most un-Republican bill ever. Pretty clever, until she opened her stupid trap and the Republicans saw that this "bipartisan" bill was being voted AGAINST by a lot of DEMOCRATS.
I think my analysis is correct, Pelosi and company were DEVASTATED that it didn't pass, they were hoping to trick Republicans into getting it passed and take no political risk.
As far as her knowing the bill would cause a "financial crisis", I don't think it would have caused a financial crisis, it allowed almost unlimited funds to anyone who needed it, but she knew it would be unpopular.
If the video was produced in 1985, the communists must be pretty patient. Still, 40 years of damage will be hard to undo.
I fight gloom and doom sometimes, but I'm also hopeful. We have a lot of freedom-loving young adults, especially among our military and veterans. They aren't heard from much but they're among us and strong. We have the internet and talk radio, which were not a factor when this video was made. Putin is certainly up to no good, but the old Soviet Union isn't what it once was, and even China shows cracks in its control.
I sometimes despair over the indoctrination of the young in the educational system, but then I look at my sons and their friends and brighten up. Yes they are getting a biased view, but there are a lot of bright ones among them who see the bias. It is the nature of young people to think they know better than their parents' generation and to rebel. In the same way that the boomers rebelled in such large numbers against the conservative, patriotic values of their parents, this generation has the potential to rebel against the values of the 1960's leftists. My younger son's school recently re-named the color coded teams of 8th graders, and one of them is the "Hippie Sixties". The staff might have thought it "cool", but the kids thought it was dated and dumb. They don't glorify the 1960's. When the teachers push global warming, many of the youngsters go along with it for the test, but I hear them outside the classroom, and they're not buying it. They live with political correctness, and many of them go along only to get along, but they see the flaws. I'm convinced that there are many young people who are seeking stability, reason, and conservative values. They're just under the radar, like many adults.
I'm encouraged by the developments of this week. We have to stand firm, encourage one another, and keep pulling back the curtain on those trying to pull the strings.
On Jan 20, 2009, it will have been EXACTLY 20 years since RWR, the only TRULY conservative president in my lifetime, left office.
Looks like we're right on schedule.
Thank you! I appreciate the fact that you have taken so much of your time to answer everybodys’ questions, including mine.
Btw, your dogs look adorable!
Reminds me of the stories about aliens in Roswell, NM. The government can't tell the people of the USA the “truth” or we'll all panic and run around like crazy people.
The economic collapse is looking more and more like the alien story!!!
Awesome post, thanks for writing it.
I’ve known some people who have come from Russia and told me stories, this is going back some years too, and they are VERY conservative. The one couple I knew LAUGHED at the media, they said it was the SAME AS RUSSIA and hated the democrats!!
Another friend I knew told me one day they took everything from his family, just cleaned them out. He also told me when he was at the train station to leave, he had a very expensive coat, they took that too. These people were both very successful here.
We need immigrants from these countries, they are conservative and APPRECIATE America. Immigration laws INTENTIONALLY bring people here who HATE our country, and limit people who love it. It’s sick but it’s true.
Stay positive, slowly but surely we are going to crush all of these leftists.

The under-35 public-school educated generation has no reason to fear communism as they either have not been taught about it or have been lied to about it. When I was growing up, the little Nuns taught us all about the evils of communism and what happens to faithful Christians in a communist society.
On the whole, I see this as a necessary process of creative destruction in which inefficient and corrupt organizations need to make way for others to flourish. I'd like to see some softening of the landing to limit collateral damage, but I truly think if America leads with courage and if we trust free markets, we'll come out OK on the other side. It's time we got back to the business of innovation, production, and honest work. We have always done this well in America. When I look at the potential for robotics, medical advances, nanotechnology, energy generation and transmission, transportation and energy-efficient construction, I see a bright future. We need to get this easy money, hyperfinance culture behind us.
Hey, let’s make it required watching for posting on DU, Daily Kos, and Huff Post!
Do you have a link to where Zogby said landslide for Mac? Thanks.
This is an accurate portrayal. I think 9-11 has slowed things down a bit but they are adjusting. Go visit a public grade school and listen to the curriculum, programs, etc.
When does government become irrelevant?
