re: I just signed the pledge

Me too. But you know, the time for signing pledges, sending emails, making calls to legislators, turning en masse at town hall meetings, streaming into DC to express our discontent, etc. is over. We tried, and how we tried. But in the end we were lied to and ignored.

I don't know what's next, but we need to figure it out and get busy doing it.

I fear violence is in our future. Not on the part of us who are so discouraged and demoralized by the realization that those running the country right now ignore the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, but rather from those of the entitlement society whose programs and benefits are going to be seriously curtailed when we run out of credit and ink for the presses. The word unsustainable is overused these days but there isn't a better one to describe situation our country's finances are in these days.

In a perverse sort of way I think a message is being sent by the number of firearms that are being purchased, the universal shortage of ammunition and the huge increase in applications to legally carry a concealed weapon. Of course all of this is a direct threat to society, unlike the millions of street thugs who have armed themselves over the years without worrying about the legality of their carrying habits</sarcasm>

Even if the road we are on under this administration and Congress didn't lead straight to disaster it would be a road that I would not choose.

My $0.02 is that it would be well to plan to head off Rat cheating at the polls which will be tried in every foul way, such as corrupting the election offices, letting the likes of Black Panthers prowl the polling places, etc. Also chew the ear off any RINO that even thinks about amnesty. I think Obama stuck his big fat foot about as deep in it as he could and if the public is allowed a fair answer it will be HELL, NO!

The FBI and ATF do not have enough firepower or agents to take us all on. And they know it.
