"Obama's Alinsky methods are indeed backfiring. "

I think that Alinsky's methods are not well suited for America. We're not a third world government who can't decide on what government dictator they want, and the American spirit is unequaled around the world. Now the yo-yo's in Washington, they are the enemy, I'm talking patriotic, grass roots Americans.

We've had a good, working government for over 200 years; the boldest and most efficient government in history. America would not sit well with totalitarian authority.

Even those who attened our liberal brainwashing centers (universitites) would not sit well if and when socialism/communism really took over. Even though they bitch and moan about the "system", the "establishment", the socio/commie style of government would take away enough of their American style of living, that even they would be balking.

We don't know how to NOT be free...and so far, we still have the 2nd Amendment to back it up.

Exactly. I've encountered far too many of those cotton brained liberals who take their freedom for granted to such an extent that they cannot even begin to imagine what life would be like under one of the "ist" forms of government they so love to promote. I'd love to send them to live for a while in one of those systems.

While I am not overly optimistic about the degree of reverence the majority of “my fellow Americans” have for freedom, I can almost agree with your point that “we” don't know how not to be free.

While the political socialist left has been busily building a vast constituency of undereducated, government dependent missfits and leeches...there exists a surprisingly large number of people,of all walks of society, who not only know the answer to “who is John Gault”, but also the coordinates of Gaults Gulch.

You’re hallucinating, my FRiend.

It definitely could happen here.

ACORN and/or civil unrest could unleash hell on conservatives.
