Nah, DeMint’s just being diplomatic. Say a few nice things now on I-Day, then undermine for the next four years.

Graham, on the other hand, is just a bootlick.

“Nah, DeMint’s just being diplomatic. Say a few nice things now on I-Day, then undermine for the next four years. Graham, on the other hand, is just a bootlick”.

Two minor points of disagreement: (1) DeMint will not undermine, he will challenge Obama; (2) Lindsay doesn’t just lick boots.

If I get your general tone, we need to be politically diplomatic at this point in time and let Obama shoot himself in the foot. We know from experience that the lefty ideas are ruinous. People just need to see it again with their own eyes.

Like it or not, October was the financial “9-11” (or at least preceived to be) and Obama is getting the support George W. Bush did in the months after 9-11. The Dems realized his popularity and went along for awhile, then slowly atarted chipping away. Or a better analogy is the drip drip drip and 5 years later you have a full bucket.

The difference is, of course, is that the Dems have the MSM backing them up.

The two biggest mistakes, IMO, of the conservative movements of the last 50 years are letting the libs take over Education and the Media . I know the reasons why it does not happen for conservatives...low pay and business models, but the end result of few sacrificing is what we have now...the slow erosion of the culture, educational system and media representation of those things.

To hell with diplomacy...it's time to fight! Being diplomatic is what got us into this mess in the first place. If those Harvey Milquetoast Pubbies can't muster up the guts for a good ol' fight for their (our) beliefs, then I say we need to clean House (and Senate) and get some George S. Patton types in there.

And while we're at it, maybe we could try to teach the dumbed-down American Sheeple why we're right and the Socialists are wrong, you know, like President Reagan did?

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
