umm. No.

I believe that good prevails over evil and the truth wins in the end.

So do I.

But I recall even reading Arch Angel Michael and his army having to wield a sword in the very halls of Heaven to rid it of evil.

Time for war. And all is fair, in war.

To stop Obama patriots should lie, cheat, steal, deceive, and take every advantage.

Alinsky’s stuff is getting outdated. There are plenty of countertactics to counter their tactics. You can use their tactics against them if you know what you’re doing.

Reagan never needed “rules” like that.

Perhaps.

Lying, cheating, and stealing are not really necessary. How about:

1 Dump truckloads of time magazine and newsweak in front of Time to protest biased coverage. Give a list of demands.

2. Pester the board at their homes and places of business.

3. Pick one really foul reporter and harass him/her constantly.

etc.

That’s great. I’m not talking about Reagan, or the RNC.

I am talking grass-roots revenge.

Bring it to the liberal establisment.

They are in power; therefore these tactics work.

YAY! I'm so glad people are FINALLY talking about this. The left has been doing this for years, but no one seemed to care.

Will the Republican politicians please WAKE UP! Sheesh.

Thank you.

I am looking for recruits.

We do this already on a disorganized level -— “Freeps” -— we did it TO GREAT EFFECT DURING the “RECOUNT” IN FLORIDA.

I tend to think a “radical uniform” of kaki pants, white shirt, red tie, and blue blazer would be funny as hell.

I can’t even send a FReep mail with what’s swimming in my gray matter.

I always use their OWN rules against THEM. Tolerance for right wing special interest groups in the name of "fairness" and "equal opportunity.". Birth and ultrasound organizations next to an abortion clinic to offer REAL "choice" etc.

It's easy to use their own rules against them. How can they argue against themselves?

Not exactly. I don’t use Alinsky tactics so much as I have found their weaknesses and know how to counter them with different ones.

I know, and she reminded me of the book I had to read at MIT for some stupid poly sci class.

Time to put it to work.

We can make their lives miserable, probably at the taxpayer’s expense.

To: concerned about politics; MeanWestTexan

c.a.p. pretty much has nailed the root principle here. the main problem is leftists are projectionists - they are always trying to point the finger at you, keep the spotlight on you, etc., and that is their Achilles heel.

Point the finger at them and their whole house of cards falls down. The best way to do this is to hold them to their own rules and point out their hypocrisy. You use their own momentum against themselves.

Judo is the best tactic against Alinsky.
