Take your ad down, sonny. You’re annoying me.
So you’re like a Republican MoveOn.org?
How many failed websites do you have now?
I hear that Al Gore knows a bunch of lawyers that are good at this kind of thing.
The half of American that was conned, doesn’t care.
The rest of us care but there are other more important things to take of. Obama and his supporters will have to take care of their own mess.
“America was conned”
Obama’s plans for tax cuts for most people was probably a con, but McCain didn’t offer the same thing. But he did promise tax cuts for some gazillionaires, a continuation of the distortion of “supply side” ideology.
Oh, and the end to “death taxes” but nothing about our life taxes.
I refuse to act like a democrat and whine that the election was not won fair and square. I don’t like the outcome, but I will not stoop to those tactics. For example, this morning on FOX during a discussion of the Bush years, Bob Beckel brought up that we don’t know if Bush was really elected in 2000. How desperate for him. I refuse to behave like that.
There is dissent in them thar words!
I think we should all be more Patriotic. The left says that dissent is Patriotic.
Allow me to begin a more Patriotic four years:
IMPEACH OBAMA!
IT IS OBAMA FAULT!!!!
OBAMA IS THE WORST PRESIDENT EVER!!
OBAMA STOLE THE ELECTION!!!
Illinois is missing and idiot!
These are my new Patriotic Battle Cries.
I hope you all join me in finding this new Patriotism. Let's show the left we can be just as 'Patriotic' as them.
For years, I’ve been amazed at and perplexed by this idiotic quadrennial fascination with the beauty contest known as the (cue the trumpet fanfare) “PRESIDENTIAL RACE.”
People, the most important thing we can remember about all of this is that the Founders constructed the system to put – AND KEEP — the KEYS IN CONGRESS and current Gang of 535 could bring this out-of-control government spending and the steady usurpation of our freedoms to a screeching halt tomorrow at noon — IF they wanted to.
But they DON’T — for a number of reasons: (And I cite this as but one example of the problem. Don’t get me started on the ENERGY thing!)
1. They understand the need to vacuum the excess FRAUDS (Federal Reserve Accounting Unit Denominators) — there are no “dollars” circulating now! — out of circulation BEFORE the bulk of the dumb masses (say it really fast for maximum effect) catch on to the resultant inflation. If you question that statement, ask yourself why else would a criminal enterprise (the federal government) having the power to “create” “money” with the stroke of a pen NEED YOURS every April 15th?
2. The current Gang of 535 understands the need for the massive tax code (so-called because it is written in code by gnomes chained to posts in the cellars of K Street lobbying firms and understood only by their keepers) to reward their friends, punish their enemies and keep the rest of us under their thumbs with threats of draconian punishments should we run afoul of it. It is impossible to NOT run afoul of it.
3. While the dumb masses rant about the abusive practices of this top criminal enterprise’s subsidiary criminal enterprise (the IRS), members of the Gang can pose and posture for the cameras from time to time and declare that “something MUST be done to reign in the abuses of the IRS,” NOTHING WILL BE DONE until we clean house on Capitol Hill and get back to the HONEST, CONSTITUTIONAL MONEY called for at Art.1, Sect. 10. They’ve been playing a rigged game of 3 card-Monte with us for so long – and getting away with it – that, as Herman Cain’s book title declares – “They Think You’re STUPID.” And, hell, for MOST of the dumb masses, they’re right.
And THAT process starts in YOUR STATE and CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT by finding and supporting decent candidates — at ALL leverls — who will go to YOUR state capitol and Malfunction Junction and do that house cleaning. Not marching on Washington...not sending “money” to the RNC (LOL!)...not writing poison pen letters to these current jerks...but THROWING OUT THE CURRENT JERKS and doing it as many times as necessary to get it done.
And for you who, like a sad number of the dumb masses who THINK YOUR GUY IS OK, go to http://www.throwthemout.com/index.php for your guy’s voting record on some of the more important issues.
I often get the strong sense that the American people have some sick and sophomoric yearning for a new ROYAL FAMILY or BENEVOLENT KING to make their lives what they themselves feel incapable of making them without some nanny-state sovereign. Throughout history, with few exceptions conspicuous because of their rarity, those systems nearly always become malignant and freedom founders and eventually fails. With the exception of America – the IDEA, not the place – most men who have walked the earth have lived as slaves.
As opportunities afford themselves (and this is one), I simply attempt to remind my fellow citizens of that history and what lies ahead if they continue in their ignorance of that history.
A personal anecdote to stress the point:
Around 6 am on dark morning in the early 80s, 4 of us piled into a car in Atlanta with a few hundred TRIM bulletins and other fact-packed flyers detailing how then Georgia Representative Ed Jenkins and Senator Sam Nunn were voting on issues important to all citizens. Our destination was Hartwell, Georgia and an “Eggs and Issues Breakfast” hosted by a large Hartwell church.
We arrived at the church about an hour early and deployed. As folks arrived for the buffet line, each was handed some of this highly informative literature. As they waited in line, they read and chatted as new information came to their attention. Just before the invited dignitaries were to make their 20 minute speeches (aka, pitches for re-election), we made certain a supply of these flyers made it to the head table. Ed and Sam ate precious little of the fine southern breakfast cuisine before them as they periodically glanced menacingly at the table we occupied. In unison, the 4 of us smiled sweetly and waved.
When Ed and Sam each rose to speak, each devoted 16 or 17 minutes of the allotted 20 minutes TRYING TO DEFEND their DOCUMENTED VOTING RECORDS to an increasingly hostile gathering as we returned Ed and Sam’s constant withering glares with more sweet smiles and waves. It was truly one of the highlights of my early years as a political bomb-thrower. YOU should try it!
After a bit more bomb-throwing in other parts of his district, Ed Jenkins was defeated in the next election. Because he ran state-wide and we lacked the resources and manpower to cover the entire state (and he did begin to clean up his act) Sam hung on for another term or two. (And those 2 year House terms — where the power to tax and spend repose — is where the effort must be concentrated.
Ask yourself what would have been the impact of these sorts of activities going on in all 435 congressional districts?
I could go on for volumes but you get the idea.
One final thought: RE-ELECT NOBODY!!!!!
The very first thing that needs to be “reformed” is the primary system that gave un John McCain. I don’t see that on your list.
That’s why our Founding Fathers had the wisdom to require US Representatives stand for election every two years.
If Zero, Nancypants, and Reid The Chinless Wonder get too out of control, 2010 will be another 1994.
That ain’t gonna work. Try to find something more constructive.
Obama won the election and it is time to oppose socialist policies and convince as many people as we can that conservatism works and makes this a better country.
Yawn.
I think your cure is worse than the sickness.
Sorry, I’m new here. What is it about Obama that, if exposed, could preclude him from taking office?
I totally agree that America was conned!! No doubt. Obama is a snake oil salesman selling his wares. But the American Public bought his lies in what is seemingly a legal and fair election. I’m not going act to have him prevented from assuming the Presidency but I will oppose at every corner his attempt to make America into a Socialist/Marxist “utopia” and will support those Legislators who are up to the fight!!!!
