Don’t be disappointed. This is really just the opening salvo in an effort to retake our government


Opening salvo huh? What was it? 5 kids with BB guns?

You think we are going to change 80 years of progressive government in ONE election? It takes six years for every senator to be up for reelection. We won’t have a chance at Obama until 2012. It’s going to take time, and it’s unreasonable to expect a political minority (conservative Republicans) to immediately change DC.

We’ve got some good folks on our side, and they are doing all they can. It’s imperative we increase their numbers in 2012. That is how change will come if it will come at all.

lol

this forum is becoming predictable....nothing is ever good enough!

I guess it depends on who’s footing the tab at the DC 24x7 Open Bar we call CONgre$$. ;-]

Now ya know why they don’t have a very big tip jar. They don’t deserve one in most folks mind..

We just have to survive to November 2012 somehow, anything cut at this point seems to be the best we can Hope for,, but that too should Change soon enough.. as the Socialist Facade of the Dems crumbles..

Some major reshuffling of priorities and leadership are definitely in order and that includes the GoP.

No, but we can in the 2nd election. We have to put “the fear of God” into the old establishment Republicans (lifers and RINOs) and positively let them know upon their next election cycle THEY WILL BE THROWN OUT for not supporting their base.

During the remaining period to the next election we must hammer to our voting (and tax paying) base that the following has destroyed our country and we must live by the Constitution in the manner it was written...not as a “living document.”

Destructive programs/practices that destroy our nation:

Political Correctness (thought and vocal crimes)
Hate Speech (1st amendment infringement)
Diversity (racism against males and whites)
Welfare (Communism)
Unions (Socialism)
Democrat party (Fascism)
Gun Control
EPA
NEA
Homeland Security
and a whole host of governmental programs the Constitution does not authorize.

We have to teach the “Oprah watchers” what is really happening and we must change things quickly to save our culture, freedoms and country.

Destroy Political Correctness,
