We continue building pro-America, patriotic conservative grassroots tea party enthusiasm and we retake our government at the state and local levels. Use the tenth amendment to block the feds. Lean on our Republican majority in the congress to not authorize excessive spending or new taxes or new debt. Do not let them raise the debt limit again!! Lean on our governors and state legislatures to resist the feds at every turn.

Build on our majority in 2014!! Retake the senate in 2014 and kick the traitor Harry Reid to the curb!! Be better prepared in 2016!! We must run a Reagan conservative. We the grassroots conservatives should run our own online tea party primary before the Republican primary so we can vet and narrow down the list of acceptable conservative candidates to no more than three, preferably just one or two. Don't let them split our vote in the Republican primary and allow a RINO to waltz in!!

Remember Ronald Reagan!! It can and must happen again!!

Roll on tea party, roll on!!

Thank you very much, dearest Lady!!

You are correct. FR is the hottest independent, pro-God, pro-life, grassroots conservative forum on the Internet!!

Here are our stats from election night as posted elsewhere:

Our traffic more than doubled on election day and the server held up very well after John installed the new nginx software package. We had 478,559 visits from 273,808 unique visitors and delivered 2,926,290 pageviews. We peaked at 214,298 pageviews per hour at 6:00 pm pacific and the server wasn’t even breathing hard. In the days prior we were peaking at around 75,000 pageviews per hour and couldn’t handle the load. We had been averaging just over a million pageviews per day.

I’d say John did a fine job with the fix and we’re trucking right along.

And we’ve moved way up in the rankings on Alexa. We’re now ranked in the top 900 sites in the USA:

FR is busting out everywhere!!

How the Left is trying to destroy America
How would they destroy our economic system and self governing system and replace them with something else?
It takes patience.
First they must convince the populace that America is the main source of many of the world's problems. Furthermore, that Free Enterprise created the current real economic threat, the imagined ecological stress and that government can do better by playing the Blame Game using the following:
- Propaganda
- Generational dependency
- Regulations on business
- Attack Industry
- Divide and Conquer Americans
- Mob rule
- Destroy the Military from within
- Attack, corrupt and infiltrate Religion and Morality

Blame the Rich, the Intolerant, the Corporations and any opposition. The current Regime attacks and blames individual free citizens of our Beloved Republic.

• Propaganda

Mandatory Public education (The Techniques of Communism: INVADING EDUCATION)
Unionize all Public School teachers to feed the coffers of the Leftist Unions. (Requirement to be employed)
Dumb down and indoctrinate the children. (Some do become adults with those views)
Saturate the public with easily obtained and FREE misinformation from the Leftist media.
As a backup, use taxpayer funded media. You have to pay your taxes.
Create distractions from the important issues and use the Leftist media to drown out everything else.
Blame it on political enemies.

• Create generational dependency

Make it mandatory to contribute to public welfare funds.
Offer assistance until it becomes available to and depended on by a majority. (Long list:
Social Security,
Welfare,
Medicare,
Medicaid,
Extended Unemployment Insurance,
Free Cell phones,
Free Government run health care...)
If anyone apposes, demonize them for their selfishness and...
Blame it on the Rich.

• Increase the number of regulations on all business.

Business overhead costs increase and must be passed on to the consumer.
If it's a small business it doesn't matter. They are rich, right? Small Business Drives U.S. Economy
Blame it on the Rich.

• Attack the Energy Industry.

Gasoline, heating, Air Conditioning, groceries, clothing and travel prices rise for industry due to government regulation.
Prices for everything rise and must be passed on to the consumer.
Barack Obama said "Energy prices will necessarily skyrocket".
Blame it on the Energy Companies and the Rich.

• Divide and Conquer Americans along racial, ethnic, social and economic "Classes".

Already all kinds of hyphenated Americans. If a class doesn't yet exist, create it.
If anyone opposes...
Blame it on the intolerant.

• Dispose of the Republic and replace it with mob rule.

Removal of the Electoral College.
Ineligible voters. (Photo ID is required to obtain welfare, cigarettes and alcohol, but not to vote.)
Illegal Alien supposed voting rights.
No International borders...
If anyone opposes...
Blame it on the intolerant.

• Destroy the Military from within.

Damage Morale.
- Allow Homosexuals to be open about their chosen lifestyle.
- Unrealistic and dangerous Rules of engagement
Divert funding to social programs to buy the votes of the unwitting "Dependency Class"
If anyone opposes...
Blame it on the intolerant.

• Attack, corrupt and infiltrate Religion and Morality.

Television promoting and celebrating immoral behavior to make it "Main Stream".
Homosexual groups constantly using any means necessary to forgive and accept their behavior as "Main Stream".
OBAMACARE attack on the 1st Amendment Right of Religious Freedom
If anyone opposes...
Blame it on the intolerant.
