Free Republic’s Bitter Kasserine Pass DEFEAT with John Boehner : WHY ARE WE HAPPY TO KEEP LOSING ?

Today (Tuesday, 2015-01-06) American Patriots suffered a humiliating political defeat with John Boehner’s re-election as Speaker of the House.

This article challenges us all to “accurately and truthfully” ask WHY we were defeated today, and except for the Nov-2014 elections, the American Patriot movement has been politically beaten like a dog for the last few years.

I’m asking Free Republic’s founder Jim Robinson to send this article to “everyone” at Free Republic, even if he disagrees with my words. My words will be plain, even if it means that I’m afterward banned and exiled from Free Republic. I accept that possibility.


=====================================


Shown above is the picture that “should” have been on The Drudge Report last Saturday, and today (Tuesday) as American Patriots rallied from EVERY corner … put aside EVERY difference … and cleansed the GOP House political leadership of corrupt Aristocratic tyrants such as John Boehner and Eric Cantor.

Notice the homespun sign “Fire Boehner”. Who’s holding the sign ? Frankly, it’s NOT important – the message is.

That's "precisely" why John Boehner was reelected. Too many LEADERS were afraid someone else would "get the credit". This is DISGRACEFUL.

Over 150 Free Republic patriots responded to Jim Robinson’s Thanksgiving-2014 call to rally nationally for a “National Day of Reckoning” against Obama-Boehner.

Over 315 Facebook patriots likewise pledged to hold local rallies on 2015-01-03 against Obama Amnesty & FIRE John Boehner.

Only “three” rallies were conducted. Over 450 promises. A miserable failure of America’s Tea Party leadership.

Folks … that’s the PRIMARY reason John Boehner was re-reelected today, although 85-percent of Republicans think that John Boehner is an abject failure.

Far too many American Tea Party patriots were just “too dammed lazy” to rally, telephone, whatever to defeat John Boehner. Period.

You can bet your 401K account that had 450 local rallies happened on Saturday, in all fifty states, Matt DRUDGE would have “cheerfully” broadcast your GREAT PHOTOGRAPHS into the living room of EVERY damned U.S. Congressman and Senator. John Boehner probably would have resigned Sunday afternoon.

We “earn” the quality of Victory we fight for.

Today we’re abject failures. Why ?


=====================================


“Kasserine Pass” was the first major American defeat in World War II, as many learned from the movie “Patton” (George C. Scott, 1970). The Nazis enjoyed another North African victory at the expense of a bloody and humiliating American defeat.

Free Republic, and the American Tea Party at large (including over 200 Facebook political groups) have suffered a disastrous “Kasserine Pass” defeat of the Obama-Boehner-McConnell political axis of evil.

Frankly, I’m “very disappointed” at our “national” Tea Party leadership. I hate failure and defeat. Do YOU as well ?

Why do “leaders” at Free Republic, Freedom Works, Overpasses for America, Tea Party News Network, Mark Levin's Fan Club, US Tea Party Political Activists National Assembly (et al) seem sometimes more interested in $$$ financial donations and “stupid” past arguments to EFFECTIVELY leading us to VICTORY ?


Free Republic’s “Kenny Bunk” perhaps best described us “all” (including me) as “Our boys prefer bitchin’ to battling.”


Every “leader” from every group mentioned above has “indeed” accomplished great things in fighting to SAVE the American Constitutional Republic. I personally thank each of them.

What I’m incredulous over is that so many of these “patriot groups” FOUGHT me tooth-and-nail over the 2015-01-03 national rallies to “STOP Obama Amnesty and FIRE John Boehner”.

ALIPAC’s William Gheen e-mailed me TWICE to cancel, and then actively SABOTAGED and slandered the 2015-01-03 rallies to the Facebook Patriot community.

I have never seen such treachery.


=====================================


As much as we despise him, Al Sharpton is incredibly successful in accomplishing his “missions” ?

Why ?

“Great Photographs” (distributed nationally) of protester BOOTS ON THE GROUND ... distributed over and over and over.

Sharpton’s been so successful that they’ve been able to convince most Americans that “Hands Up - Don’t Shoot” is a FACT.

American Tea Party Patriots can’t even persuade most Americans / Congressmen to FIRE Boehner (a TRUTH), who’s universally as an utter Failure.

WHY is that ?

We DON’T have BOOTS ON THE GROUND in GREAT PHOTOGRAPHS being distributed 24/7/365 (rain, cold, snow) in America on The Drudge Report.

Now ... DO have millions of “Patriots” at Free Republic and Facebook typing their little fingers into oblivion.

Sometimes, we even make a few telephone calls to Congress ... but NO ONE has PICTURES of that on the DRUDGE REPORT.

Al Sharpton makes sure his photographs get shown on the Drudge Report.

American Patriots ? Heck, we’re too lazy to even rally at local overpass for two hours (and NEVER create the photographs required for VICTORY).

What does Free Republic and Facebook Patriot Groups have to do to WIN ?


=====================================


Tea Party patriots will continue our parade of “Kasserine Pass” defeats until WE get our collective acts together.

Alone … Limbaugh, Hannity, Mark Levin, Jim Robinson, Daveda Gruber, Carol Bush, James Neighbors, Matt Kibbe, Eric Erickson … are NOT going to rescue America.

We MUST “stand and fight” … together.


If Free Republic’s Jim Robinson calls for a “National Day of Reckoning” against Obama Amnesty-Boehner, ALL should respect it and get-with-the-program.

Anyone who criticizes, SABOTAGES or slanders that effort should "Go To Hell".


If "Overpasses for Impeachment's" Roger Ogden calls for a rally, ALL should respect it and get-with-the-program.

Anyone who criticizes, SABOTAGES or slanders that effort should "Go To Hell".


If “US Tea Party Political Activists” (Daveda Gruber) calls us to rally ... ALL should respect that and get-with-the-program.

Anyone who criticizes, SABOTAGES or slanders that effort should "Go To Hell".


Most importantly … ANYONE who calls themselves an “American Patriot” … but tries to disrupt or SABOTAGE another “phone blitzkrieg” or “national rally” …

should be tarred-and-featured (by their individual group) and sent packing to exile.


=====================================


Finally, The Drudge Report tells us (tonight) that the despicable John Boehner is now "purging" all those who votes against him today.

I will personally raise a toast tonight to the COURAGE of the U.S. Congressmen who rallied to DEFEAT John Boehner ...

But, quite frankly, FAILED, because the Tea Party Movement and it's LEADERS sat on their thumbs ... or worse, worked to SABOTAGE the 2015-01-03 national rallies.


=====================================


Let there be NO MORE “John Boehner Victories” or American Patriot “Kasserine Pass” DEFEATS.

America may NOT survive if WE keep fighting each other more than Obama’s socialist nightmares.

Godspeed to All.

Can we stop with the delusions of believing that it’s possible to bring about change through the GOP? It cannot be done. Time to go UKIP.

[MeshugeMikey]

barrys been a very very busy boy today..

[1010RD]

You’re not living up to your pseudonym. It’s all logistics and we didn’t have enough of anything to win against Boehner. So we have to be smarter.

[Big Red Badger]

Murrieta was another Victory here in SoCal.

[moose07]

Ugh!
So believable too.

[dforest]

I am totaly with on all that. I was talking with my neice today about these black folks going into these retaurants and disrupting the meals of white people bothering nobody. Just eating a meal.

I was more disturbed by the people eating than I was the scum harassing them. They sat there like cowardly lumps anfd allowed these people to ruin their meal out. They were touched and told they had no right to be there, yet they did nothing. Quislings sitting there setting themselves up for genocide or something.

So depressing. We had a black mob yute riot at a local mall here this weekend. it was awful and shots were fired outside the mall. The cops let them all get away with it.

Nobody has any gumption anymore. Who is running the House is nothing compared to all the crap going on.

“It’s just plain foolish to try to organize a rally in this weather.”

Agreed. Organize a rally on July 4th. Let us know when and where. I’ll bring the fireworks and you bring the hotdogs, ketchup and buns.

“Kasserine Pass” was the first major American defeat in World War II, as many learned from the movie “Patton” (George C. Scott, 1970). The Nazis enjoyed another North African victory at the expense of a bloody and humiliating American defeat.

You shouldn't get your history from movies. Pearl Harbor was the first major American defeat in World War II, not Kasserine Pass -- and if you watched Patton closely, or better yet read your history books, you know the end result of Kasserine Pass was not anything like a defeat.

But let's use your analogy. At this point in the battle, we're commanded by Lloyd Fredendall -- who was unfit for purpose. Our opponents are commanded by Erwin Rommel, who clearly was fit for exactly his purpose.

To use the political analogy, the opposition has a tougher, more experienced leader. In real political terms, he's also much better funded. It wasn't until Eisenhower, and your man George Patton, came to town that the good guys turned the tables and won the day.

Remember that the Tea Party is only five years old. If your expectation is to carry all before you in your first battle against an entrenched enemy, you're going to be disappointed and a lot of your soldiers are going to be dead on the field.

But if you build patiently with good leadership, you will eventually win. It is going to take time, and conservatives are going to have to give themselves freedom of action by ditching the Republican Party, before any true progress will be made.

Slinging insults at your fellow conservatives solves nothing.

[King Moonracer]

Boner’s philosophy: keep your friends close and rape them, keep your enemies closer and bend over. FU GOPe.

[tennmountainman]

Patton

You worked so hard to put together the Rally’s.
And did a fantastic job of spreading the word.

Some will continue to reform the GOP within.

Others like me believe the GOP is not fixable.
Trent Lott once said you can’t change Washington.
I laughed at him at the time.
He was right. You really can’t change Washington.

[loungitude]

I am no longer a Republican. I am a Conservative and will not vote for a candidate because they have an R by their name.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Are there any conservatives with a D by their name?

You're missing the point about the "bad weather", especially a cold dry day ...

it's great for a photograph ... or a dozen ...

when the targeted congressman sees that you're "that" dedicated he KNOWS you'll work like hell to get him defeated in an election



It's OK though ... and I'm "genuinely" not being sarcastic ...

some of us at Free Republic wanted John Boehner to go away with just the twitch of our little finger ...

others were "really mad" enough to make a telephone call to their congressman ...

the final group were the "few" who weren't just BS-ing everyone with our "keyboard commando" skills ...

that includes Free Republic patriots like myself and Mike-Z ...

and the estimated 125 hours I used planning, organizing and communicating (nationally) the 2015-01-03 rallies



In my "personal opinion" ... the "Freepers" who didn't answer Jim Robinson's call to rally ...

are just a sorry lot of excuse makers ... except for the few who told me they were sick in bed.



That's what this thread to all about.

It's time we quit lying to each other about "bad" we want Obama and Boehner stopped ...

unless we get our arses "on the streets to rally" ...



Strong words that are ... "true" ...

I'm humbled by your compliments ... thank you ...

[nomad]

One of the reasons is this ridiculous spread out protest on a bridge approach, really? Who are the retards who keep using these stupidly ineffective tactics? Centralize and plan ahead or forget it.

[Impy]

I wasn’t speaking to whatever it is you did, unless your name is Steve King. I was talking about the effort by the people with actual power to choose the House Speaker, members of the House, their effort was dis-organized and started far too late.

They needed ONE alternate candidate to start campaigning weeks ago.

What we saw today had no chance at success, so I’m not gonna get bent out of shape about it.

[erkelly]

Thinking back, I don’t think your revisionist assessment of why Reagan was elected is correct. People were sick and tired Jimmy Carter’s phony piousness, his bumbling socialism, the emerging looney leftists coming into the mainstream, the Iran hostage crisis, the gas lines, unemployment, the loss of the Panama Canal, and of course killer rabbits but perhaps I was too young to see it clearly and you are correct that it was only his movie star status, and not his long-standing published conservative stance in newspaper columns and radio, and two successful terms as governor of California, after all I was only 35 years old or so the time.

Good LORD, Colonel ...

And you left out Dutch Harbor in Alaska.



Anyone who (in good faith) read my Kasserine Pass comment understood that it was the "first" U.S. defeat by the German Wernmacht.

My history sources ?

Keegan, Karnow, Gilbert, Hornfischer, Schom, to name the first (of over 20) that come to mind.



"Slinging Insults" at conservatives ...is an "easy" thing to say for a guy who didn't do "squat" for Jim Robinson's call for a "National Day of Reckoning" ...

you didn't participate, you didn't help plan, you did zero, nada, zilch ...

you didn't face the back-biting, pathetic excuses, slander, treachery by the ALIPAC guy William Gheen as he attempted to sabotage the national rallies ...

or mindless criticism offered by "patriots" hoping for perfect weather on the perfect day in the perfect millennium ...



As such, I disqualify your remarks as typical "peanut gallery" noise.

Get in the "fight" next time, Sailor, and "earn" your right to criticize those "fighting in the boxing ring" ...

Otherwise, you're a merely "perfect" keyboard commando ...

In the words of a famous song ...

"Where the HELL were YOU when we started this gig ?"

[luvie]

Excellent post, sir! 👍

[caww]

That’s the first think out of someones mouth when one faces reality ....”are you just going to quit then?”...lolol

Give me a good reason why my family and friends and live in general shouldn’t be my priority entire now? You cannot. Anything you say is just a repeat of what we’ve been doing UNEFFECTIVELY.

When someone comes up with something that is effective...then I’ll reconsider...right now I have much better things to do with my money and time where it is effective.

As for locally....nobody gives a crap here. About the only thing that brings the crowds out is the latest parade...and the Tea Party people don’t even show!

[Pelham]

Reagan was also a two term Governor of California, no small advantage when running for President.
