An apology and a thought (Vanity)
10/17/2008 | NTHockey

Posted on 10/17/2008 6:18:30 AM PDT by NTHockey

I apologize to all readers for a stupid and inappropriate posting. It got my privileges revoked for a week. It will not happen again.

Now, my thought. I watched most of the debate on Wednesday, until it frankly got boring. McCain seems to understand the anger and frustration. Bob Scheiffer almost got it when he asked about cutting spending and reducing the deficit. Neither McCain nor Obama gave a convincing answer.

What we need - before Election Day - is an "I'm p!$$ed off" Day. Everybody is p!$$ed off about something or another. Let's channel it into a no work, no spending day. Stop the country for one day. Thoughts?

“I’m pissed off day” should be Nov 4th.

That's what I was wondering too.

Isn’t ‘I’m Pissed Off Day’ every day at the welfare office?

There's a couple ways that can happen.

“Thoughts?”

Send McCain a hundred bucks, and get off the “we can put on a musical and save the school”.

You asked, just sayin’.

The people you would punish most, are not the ones responsible.

Plus, the news media would turn it around (like they always do) and make it look bad for McCain/good for Obama.

I hadn’t noticed. What was the stupid and inappropriate posting?

There’s no doubt that it’s well past time for the American people to show some muscle and anger about the wholesale destruction of our constitutional form of government by our elected “leaders”.

But, what are we to do? Take up arms and head to the streets? Such an effort would be crushed in no time.

The ballot box? Not so much.

There is one effective thing that every ordinary American can do to exert our rightful control and power over our government. Refuse to pay for our own enslavement.

We need to organize a nationwide tax revolt. That is the only thing that will get Washington’s attention, and bring them to heel. But, it can’t be a few hundred hard-core patriots. It’s got to be ten million or more, all at the same time.

I say we name a date and promote the idea of a Second Boston Tea Party to everyone we know. When the predetermined date arrives, we could have tens of millions of Americans simply withhold their own hard earned dollars from a government that clearly no longer operates in our best interests.
