Look, I sympathize with the frustration many are feeling here about the direction our country is headed in, but talk of open revolt or even civil disobedience is crazy. If any groups ever attempted it, they would instantly be labeled terrorists by both the government and the media, and most Americans would then see us as the enemy. Obama would have the excuse and support he needed to openly target anyone on the right and wipe anyone opposing him out. Conservatism would be dead as would our country. Think about it.
” wipe anyone opposing him o”
That theory hasn’t worked against the illiterate Muslims armed only with AK-47 and RPGs in the sandbox. We’ve been there 5+ years and still can’t get them settled down. What makes you think better armed, equipped, educated, trained, and military experienced Americans would fair so much worse?? Not to mention we outnumber any forces by far, far greater numbers than those over there. Sorry, ain’t buying the “lay down your arms, ya ain’t got a prayer” argument.
Better dead than red. I’ll die fighting against these marxists/socialists before I just give in to them.
However if we were labeled terrorists, we could have the next president launched from our living room!
Hear, hear. The way to get the Marxists thrown out is to make them abject failures. There WILL be an election in two years, no matter how much Chicken-little crying we hear here. People will throw the Dems out if they have no jobs, as long as we are smart enough to make sure that they know that the Dems are at fault.
The Internet has perfect memory. Why do you think the Dems hate sites like FR so much? Our job over the next two years is twofold:
1. Clearly and concisely lay out EVERY Dem economic failing. We all know where today’s “stimulus” will lead — economic disaster. We just need to connect the dots for the “average” sheep.
2. Do everything in our power to ensure that the Dems do indeed fail. If we lose focus and give them the economy we gave the Clintons, then we richly deserve whatever happens to us. Anyone too squeamish to face four years of Carter, this means you. The Dems know that their base is not their tax base; they are the moochers, the leeches, and the need US to fund it. We can deny them that. It’s time to limit our spending to bare necessities, and do everything we can to find less expensive ways to survive. A dollar spent is a dollar that Zero can tax.
This is war, but not the kind that some people think it is (and if you disagree, then fine, let’s see if YOU can organize several million armed Americans before you get rounded up.) That’s just crazy talk, and counterproductive.

Thankfully, you weren’t born during the time of the American Revolution, you would be utterly useless to the cause. People said the same things you are saying about the patriots during that time period and I for one am glad they didn’t listen to it and went ahead and risked everything for their principles and our freedom. Those same freedoms we used to enjoy we are losing now with collectivists firmly in control of government and the media.
Talk of civil disobedience is crazy?
Good grief.
No extremism in the RINO party...how do you feel about ACORN steeling elections? Is that extreme on the dims part or is that just part of “the big game”? It’s cool, we’ll just play too and live in gated communities next to the counrty club.
You just dont give up do ya.
You must live in an odd neighborhood. Most people I speak with today justifiably see the government and their drive for total control as the enemy.
In addition, you need to look back on history, just a few years. Open mass civil disobedience and violent protest quickly ended wars this country has been involved in. Right or wrong.
One side, probably the minority of Americans were responsible.
You need to understand, the only reason the government has any power at all up to this point, it because citizens have allowed it.
So you are saying that we have no choice but to stand by and watch our rights be eroded away, since our political system is far too corrupt to work in?
