The Tea party biggest contribution is making weak spined, feckless, gutless, flaccid, wobbly republicans take conservative positions and principles

Rrrrrriiiiggghhhhttt... as opposed to wasting one's time on a political forum just bitching about the problem instead of getting off one's lazy ass and doing something about it.

Reelect NO ONE

Exactly right. That's the only way this country's problems are going to get fixed short of a full-on revolution complete with tar, rope, feathers, guns, bullets and 537 dead, swinging bodies from the steps of the Capitol.

(I much prefer your way first, but if it fails.....)

If we had an all out revolution we would have Obama as dictator until he died. The tea will rule about 2012.

I fully support the Tea Party, that doesn't mean anything until they win some seats in Congress which goes to the point I was making that the Tea Party has no power currently except to influence the GOP.

As for getting off my lazy ass to do something. Screw off: you have no idea what I do or don't do politically.

Yeah, I know. I already pegged you so don't waste your time telling me your conservative creds

You sure spend alot of time on here bitching, which says quite a bit about you.

Your "pegged" statement indicates something else about you also. Sure you're on the right forum?

As for me, I've been here long before you and I suspect based on your posting history I'll be here long before you're gone. My Conservative credentials on this forum were well established long before you got here, newbie.

Newbie ! LOL. Ok. Whatever.

My thingy is better then you thingy is quite juvenile

My current screen name is my second one. Dropped the first one because in my youth and naivety I actually used my real name as a screen name. After getting hacked by the opposing side several times I changed it to protect myself.

I was one of the first 500 members when Jim first started this thing long, long ago back when posters used to discuss the real issues of conservationism and it's principles and positions. Before their server crashed and everybody had to resign up in 1998. You probably remember those days since you signed up in 1998 before this place become a glorified chat room. So be careful who you call a noob.

Remember, we are both on the same side.

Oh' I've been spat on, accosted and verbally abused by the moonbat left at many a protest. So yeah, I get off my lazy ass once in a while and do my duty.

Even if so, that's a great start.

What we need now is a formidable national leader of the stature of Reagan to coalesce around. There are some promising candidates, but none of them has really grown to that stature yet.

DUH! The Second American Revolution started on 1-20-09 - this was the day Obama took office with the decision made beforehand to destroy the Republic.

So far he’s doing great.

What may happen next is the Second U.S. Civil War...

Will Washington’s Failures Lead To Second American Revolution?

“America is at that awkward stage. It’s too late to work within the system, but too early to shoot the bastards.”

Opening lines of 101 Things To Do ‘Til The Revolution by Claire Wolfe


I agree.

The peace will last until the collapse of the economy.

Then when the middle class becomes hungry, homeless, unemployed and RADICALIZED - The Second U.S. Civil War will break out - AND WOE TO THE LEFTARD RULING CLASS!

This war will make the French Revolution look like a Sunday picnic.

My point as well.

Obama and Comrades started the Second American Revolution on January 20, 2009 - We who oppose them are actually “Contras” Counter Revolutionists - If this situation slides into violence, which it shows every sign of doing so, we will be in a Second U.S. Civil War.

However, before this conflict breaks out the American People will exhaust all legal redress.

This process will last at least a year.

I think all “Contras” understand that we stand before God, history and the eyes of the world.

The other side must fire the first shot.

Then we kick butt and take names with a terrible swift sword.

Read carefully moron: I don't care.

Oh' I've been spat on, accosted and verbally abused by the moonbat left at many a protest. So yeah, I get off my lazy ass once in a while and do my duty.

Read carefully: I DON'T CARE - AGAIN. Grow a thicker skin. And by the way, my comments about your original post which were nothing but critical of the Tea Party movement stand. Fact is, the Tea Party movement is having a positive effect and influencing change in this country. That's something you keyboard commando's will never do here on FR.

I was one of the first 500 members when Jim first started this thing long, long ago back when posters used to discuss the real issues of conservationism and it's principles and positions.

You sure don't act like it. If you were half the poster you claim to be, you'd be out there busting your ass to effect change instead of posting against the Tea Party.

Remember, we are both on the same side.

Too bad FOR YOU it took you this long to figure it out, rather than piss on the Tea Party which no doubt is out there working harder to effect change than I'm willing to bet you ever have.

I tried to nice but you seem to insist on being a a-hole

Do you have a reading comprehension problem or mildly ADD because I in no way was posting against the Tea Party just stating the cold hard facts that currently they only are effective as influence until we have actually elected someone to office

I fail to remember where I claimed to be any type of poster at all so I would suggest you increase the dosage of whatever mind altering drugs you must be taking Since you seem to be such an asswipe by responding the way you did I'd rephase my intial comment and instead of teliing to screw off, I'd move to F*** off

“Just food for thought, would you consider the American Revolution a civil war, not actually a revolution?”

That’s a very interesting question. By fact and circumstances, it was arguably both; though mostly it was a revolution, as there were not any serious competing factions trying to oust the British. Most revolutions are also civil wars, because rather than being limited to just one group acting to overthrow a government there are usually competing groups seeking the same goal, and they often fight against each other as loyalties and alliances shift and create opportunities for leverage. That’s why civil wars are far more destructive than simple revolutions, simply because such bad blood (grudges, jealousies, age-old hatreds, etc.) are given free rein among the participants.

It won't stop. It will move to the Left if a Rino gets in. Actually, we need to split into a global socialist nation and constitutional, sovereign nation. The two camps in this country can't live together any more and can not accept the presidency of either camp. The Left with Internationalist Republicans (Rinos) have rejected the basic agreement than formed the Union.

If you had an open mind you would have known that I was talking about Bush the progressive GOP who took his government control ideas from Wilson.

Wilson was the worst President this country ever had - hell Geobbels got all of his ideas for Nazi propoganda from the Wilson machine.

I do my research it is just too bad that you are both blinded by your idealogical love for Bush who set us up to have Obama elected.

Kaslin why don’t you take a moment and learn the truth about Bush and how he accelerated the destruction of our country. Bush and Obama will go down in history as major disgraces.

The whole “sovereign” nation thing is undone by the global economy. To even suggest protecting ourselves against that is called socialism by the corporate apologists.
