” Maybe they have misjudged the opposition. “

Perhaps they’ve even misjudged the American People in general...

Since the mid ‘60s, disruptive, and often violent, protest has been the exclusive realm of the Left.. (Yes, we’ve been out there sometimes, but the Media has ignored us, thus adding to the impression..)

Now that we’re out there and being almost ‘leftish’ in our enthusiasm, the ‘great unwashed’ is feeling a bit of cognitive dissonance - of the ‘dog climbs tree and cat barks’ variety....

It appears - as a general impression - that a substantial portion are resolving the dissonance with the thought that ‘if the Right is acting so far ‘out of character’, they must have something valid to worry about....

We might just be winning this thing on the ground....

The Obots are boring too. All they do is post links to left wing sites which attempt to debunk the “myths” about ObamaCare.

That insults people. As Bernard Goldberg says concerning the liberal media, if it doesn’t exist, how is it that tens of millions of Americans say it does? All they all deluded? Are millions of Americans, Americans with a lifetime of experience mostly, so stupid they cannot see what ObamaCare is? Are those elderly men at the town meetings, many of whom who once carried M1s, M14s or M16s, and those elderly women who nursed and raised families so dumb they got Obama’s health care proposals all wrong?

Maybe it won’t derail the bill, but if not it will certainly derail the Democrat Party.

“I’m sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and disagree with this administration, somehow you’re not patriotic. We need to stand up and say we’re Americans, and we have the right to debate and disagree with any administration.”
Hilary Clinton

One of the few times I agreed with her.
We are sick and tired of those that represent us not listening.

Pelosi, Reid, Hussien and Hoyer have more in common with King George III than they would care to admit.

That's exactly my thought. I remember Hellary screaming about the right to disagree against the Bush Administration.

Now that the shoe's on the other foot they don't like it.

I don’t know if the shaking is from fear or too much coffee.

These people really are off their rockers, aren’t they?

I propose a moratorium on posting pics of Pelosi (and other stomach-churning images) before breakfast....

Polosi admits “railroading’ legislation.

The rest is dog and pony.

We’re working our way to a revolt in this country.

Something tells me that most of us wouldn't devote our lives or our fortunes to this country anymore

Something tells me we will not have a choice. Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose.

You are thinking October, but their target date is 9/12.

We are up against a mighty force in these people. An amazingly deceptive network of people. I feel we can no longer ponder how we got here, but where we are going. We've been told to sitdown and shutup. If we do that we will lose, give away, our Rights. In return we will get peace? You see we've always been the silent majority and we're not silent right now. Once we've started making noise, talking, connecting it won't be stopped.

War, is on the horizon and we’ve already been framed as the enemy, as the terrorists, and extremists. Most of us have already been reported to the DHS, we just don't know it yet or we're in our own bubble of denial. On April 15th, 2009 at our tea party we joked and kidded each other about being categorized as enemies of the state.

They hold the upper hand in propaganda and will continue to do so. So, we must find another way and stop complaining about the Propaganda Press. We must create our own newspapers, flyers, etc. and get them put in public places. Deliver them free door to door in our own locals. In other words we must find an alternative. The internet for now is Ok, but it won't be here as free as it is today.

We have several results to seek. I have less faith that 2010 or 2012 will hold any valid meaning. In fact they are pushing for a crisis to stop the elections. I felt 2008 was our last chance. I cried that day after I voted. When people lose faith in the electoral system it will collapse. I watched closely what they did here in Ohio in 2008. Tactics were tested here in 2004 & 2006. I warned people that whatever they get away with in Ohio will be pulled nationwide. 2008 was an opportune event for them and honest elections & voting died the month of November.

The last civil war had a leader at the end that could still save the union. That could reconstruct what was torn asunder. 0bama doesn't have the skill to do that, nor is that his goal. One leader wanted to save the country, the other wants to destroy it. Recall during the campaign he noted Lincoln a lot. The code wasn't about Lincoln's leadership, the message was about a civil war.

I have started wondering do all these hardcore marxists etc. get tried and convicted of Treason? Do we revoke their citizenship and turn them out of the country? What of their underground network? The ACORN, teachers, college professors, etc.? What do we do with that 10%, 20%, 25% of the population that denounces their citizenship by their support of socialism, marxism, etc.?

We’ve long tolerated their type and now we find we’ve tolerated them for far too long. In a country of Free Speech, should speech in opposition to our founding documents be tolerated? I have my own conclusion to that question and many patriots here would deny me for it. Speech that works to overthrow our freedoms, our nation, our Constitution is treason.

Perhaps the sentiments contained in the following pages, are not yet sufficiently fashionable to procure them general favor; a long habit of not thinking a thing wrong, gives it a superficial appearance of being right, and raises a formidable cry of defense. Thomas Paine

Our time, our generation’s call, the Liberty Bell is ringing
