Sorry for the typos. I was so PO’d I was typing fast and forgot to proof my post.

[rodguy911]

Great catch kabar.
Keep people totally dependent on govt. and you get a little bit closer to complete Socialism which is where they want to go.

[Fishtalk]

Well allow me to give you an ATTABOY and a word of encouragement. The Blue Bloods will hang on and they will hang on and they will defame and mock...what you say? Repeat after me, Bray....they WILL BEAT THE HELL OUR OF THEIR OWN BASE then they brush off their bloodied fingers, sniff, and begin again to reach across the aisles to the Democrats.

Hang tough, it can be done....I am now Secretary of our GOP area RD and am, I like to think, quite influential. I believe I got a good head and there are still some blue bloods hanging around but they’ve stopped the lying and mockery and sit on hands and do, oncit in a while, participate in what is now a very organized, orderly and very neat meeting process. I’ve got every intention of working with them, or mining their brains for their experience, of welcoming them with open happy arms to the process. BUT THEY GOTTA ACT RIGHT. How’s that for a concept?

I gave up a couple of times, Bray, not believing that us crazies could get ‘er done. Don’t make my mistake...hang in there.

I know we keep getting mad at the bias and the obvious dems/commies plan to blame our side for the debt crisis, “it is Bushe’s fault”, “it was a problem for years when I took office”...point is, we can get all mad as much as we want, but in the end, if we can’t convince the people via the MSM who we hate that we DID NOT CAUSE IT...that is with good, easy 6th grade illustrations and explanations then we are toast. That’s the truth and we better have a good plan, well orchestrated to reverse the trend and NOT ASSUME THAT THE PEOPLE ARE THIS STUPID to believe the left, because the truth is they ARE THAT STUPID and do believe them. ............

WE BETTER GET REAL BUSY reversing the message. REAL BUSY!!!

Sadly, I agree with you. Part of it is willful stupidity. People currently on govt benefits (or about to be) don't want to see their piece of the pie cut, are fearful of how they will make it, etc., so shift the blame/responsibility to others. Part of it is our declining educational system. Part of it is our reliance on others (congressional leaders) to fix things without really bothering us with the details. There are lots of reasons why people don't understand what's going on.

The good thing is more people are paying attention, are educating themselves. Politicians could help a lot explaining things with simple pie charts, simple examples. Since that rarely happens, regular Americans are going to have to start doing that ourselves, educating our neighbors, family, using some very simple talking points that illustrate where we are heading.

[rodguy911]

Good that you are telling us about it now.That leaves time for the major talkers to get ahead of it and show the true meaning of giving zero such PR for something he had absolutely nothing to do with a month before election time.

[Cheerio]

We have 8 Senate seats in the Wisconsin Senate up for grabs over the next few weeks and the regime is hellbent on stealing them back while the DBM completely ignores the facts.

IF the RATS - with all their bussed in resources and millions $ - can take back the Senate, then they have won the PR war and will use it in the DB LSM from now till Nov 6, 2012. IT WILL NOT WORK WELL FOR THE TEA PARTY.

[Fishtalk]

Let me say that for once I think John McCain had a good message. He said to David Gregory “DON’T SHOOT THE MESSENGER”.

Because that S&P downgrade, from triple A down to double A plus....not a descent into hell for God’s sake....but it was very deserved. For now the US is NOT triple A credit worthy, no we’re not and most Americans, silly us with the collective common sense, get this.

The Dems are gonna hem and haw and yes, try attacking the messenger, one of their fave techniques. It ain’t gonna work.

This country has the Jimmy Carter malaise blues and it ain’t gonna change till Obamer’s outta there.

They can flummox and hem and haw and send on liberal lesbians to lie with a smile but Americans are simply not going to buy it. For as of yet, it is still illegal for the gubmint to pass laws requiring business owners to expand and for investers to invest and there’s the bugaboo.

We’re all waiting for OBamer to be outta there, it’s the elephant in the room. I’m looking for the Dems to start peeling away because Obamer’s gonna start pulling them all down.

I accept criticisms of wishful thinking. I don’t think so.

[mojitojoe]

Seriously, I my daughter was an O supporter and wanted to move back home, I don’t think I would let her unless she apologized and admitted that she made the worst mistake of her life. No O supporters allowed in my house! Luckily, I only have one family member that supported O, and that was my sister in law. We haven’t spoken since them. I blocked her emails, told her to never call here again until she admits she was wrong and apologized.

[onyx]

Agree with you completely. I watched FNS from my comfy couch. I got mad that neither of our peeps bothered to point out the bias of the NYT/cBS poll, but what the heck .... WE know.

[kabar]

This is really significant and unprecedented. The chart should be placed front and center by the Reps to show that our country is experiencing something that has not been seen over the past 60 years. The author implied the significance by the following statement:

In other words, what started out as a cyclical problem could morph into a structural one — particularly if the country allows the nation’s 14 million jobless workers to become a sort of underclass like the one many European countries have struggled with.

Scary stuff. Obama is literally transforming this country into a European socialist country. And he has just proposed extending the unemployment benefits again. We are going to have something similar to the dole that they have in the UK. I just have to post the chart again. It is shocking to say the least.

[july4thfreedomfoundation]

Axel should be in prison for his mis-deeds. Along with the rest of this corrupt administration.

See my tagline.....

[Twotone]

“My war-weariness tends to move towards blowing things up rather than withdrawing.”

R. Emmet Tyrrell wrote a column some time ago called “The Strategy of the Bar-Room Brawler.” It essentially said that if we are attacked in any way, we go in & blow the place up & then leave. No more fixing things or nation building. I’m beginning to like that strategy, myself.

[rodguy911]

Meanwhile on CNN Regime spinner Larry Summers is making a complete fool out of himself by suggesting that we need more infrastructure spending since failure to do it now will cost us 5X as much when we eventually do.

That part is probably true but it begs the question of WTF did all the money go that zero has already spent that was supposed to go in infrastructure spending!!!

These brainwashed Marxist guys are so invested in lying and propping up a failing regime they will say or do anything to keep the dear leader in power.

[bray]

Fish, Do you really think I will ever give up? We are going to win this thing with a Tea Party candidate and that scares them to death.

Coming back from an event yesterday that Cain spoke at, which I missed; I realized I was the 2nd or 3rd most powerful person in the County GOP and going to be in the middle of this Civil War. Should be very interesting.

I have written a new campaigning manual that is very effective and we will be testing it in this special election.

Pray for America

[CDB]

We're baaaacckkkk!

The Skipper and Gilligan! What's a Sunday without a rerun of "Gilligan's Island?"

[rodguy911]

We can point it out until the cows come home.

But as long as they get away with blaming all problems on Racism,Congress, The Tea Party, or Republicans unwilling to tax the rich, its going to be tough to get any traction.

Best bet is to push plans like the Mack Penny that will end deficits forever and key in on telling Americans what we could really be doing with energy and why business won't spend.Freeing up energy alone would create hundreds of thousands of jobs.

I think we could get more traction with the above rather than trying to get the point across that zero is a Marxist and is doing evil things on purpose.

[rodguy911]

What can I say. Ozero is not even qualified to be potus! The entire thing is a complete sham that is overlooked by the fourth estate.

[Reagan Man]

>>>>>...Jamie Diamond, what’s her name’s husband - Alan Greenspan, Rachel MadCow, all moderated by David Gregory...

Rarely will Gregory have a conservative on the panel segment. Did you catch Alex Castellanos' douche bag remarks about Palin and Perry?

[onyx]

NO! I didn’t. What did he say?

[upchuck]

Paul Ryan needs to replace Boehner

Bump!
