Right ... they’re all nuts.

Everybody who has a belief, of any kind, is a nut.

Anybody who takes action, of any kind, is a nut.

Anybody who protests with anything stronger than words is a nut, too.

Thank God we’ve got all these keyboard patriots sitting there in reserve, fully ready at a moment’s notice to ... umm ... to call other people nuts.

Yeah, that’s the decisive action we need to restore our Constitutional republic! That’s how viable third parties get started! Inertia makes such an incredible secret weapon that nobody would ever suspect it!

Thank God there was no Internet in Jefferson’s day or we’d all still be British.

Surely you don’t mean me, do you FRiend? I’ve walked precincts, posted yard signs, donated, among others, to John McCain, George Bush, Tom McClintock, Prop 8, about half a dozen R senate candidates around the country. I engage my fellow citizens in polite discourse on political topics whenever I can. I’ve bought Mark Levin’s book, and sent copies to two friends so they can help spread the word. During the ‘08 election I would email articles and commentary to friends whose confidence in that spud we nominated was flagging. I’m going to see Michael Medved, Hugh Hewitt and Dennis Prager at Wiliam Jessup U. on May 5, and have encouraged others to do so as well. I proudly fly not one but two American flags on my property, wear a “Flight 93” lapel pin, and have a photo of the World Trade Center in a black frame on the wall of my office. I taught my children to include “President Bush and all our brave soldiers” in their prayers each night, though I can’t bring myself to include the current President these days because I wish him utter politcal failure. For fun I heckle Democrats marching in the 4th of July parade here in beautiful Auburn, California, much to the chagrin of my wife. Online, I try to talk crazies off the ledge. What have I missed so that I’m not stuck with the “keyboard patriot” moniker?
