After Kasserine Pass the US Army turned to new leadership. The Conservatives need that leadership and the only one with tenacity and intelligence is Sarah Palin. Until we rally around her the wolves are going to keep eating us alive.

What humiliating defeat? It was a long shot from the very start. Don’t exaggerate. Hyperbole doesn’t become a conservative.

even small numbers can project power if they have the mechanism to do so, see: gays and trannies as examples.

The problem is that conservatives keep expecting the Republican Party to be that mechanism, it isn’t and won’t be any time soon.

The only rallies I want to attend now are the ones where I can bring my pitchfork, a bucket of tar and a huge bag of feathers.

If it wasn’t for people like you I wouldn’t even know the Drudge Report existed since 4/98!

At least half of Americans are dumb as a box of rocks when it comes to the very politicians that tell them what to do or over charge them just for living in this Country. The same half are the ars holes that are the jackasses in Washington and destroying your freedom and have ruined most of your economic life.

Boogieman,


My "only" regret about doing my local 2015-01-03 rally was that I didn't have a foot of snow to wade through ... while the latest blizzard rested.

My spouse (Karen) who's holding the "Fire Boehner" sign in the "very top" Drudge picture feels the same way.



Mitch McConnell said that he wanted to "Crush the Tea Party".

In Washington Beltway speak that means "exterminate".

How do you "really" feel about Mitch McConnell wanting to "exterminate" the FREEDOMS that you and your children enjoy ?



For me, it means that if I have to rally in a foot of snow, or rain and sleet, I'm gonna be there. Period.

George Washington did THAT at Trenton, NJ during Christmas 1776.

Gen. George S. Patton Jr. did THAT during the WWII Battle of the Bulge (Christmas 1944).

It would have been a "lifelong honor" to STAND with those Men then ...

and I'll do it whenever needed to SAVE the American Constitutional Republic.



"Who else will Stand with me ?"

That’s the only kind that would make a difference. I won’t go to one where all that happens are signs being held up and a congresswoman on the capital balcony waiving a flag back and forth.

Tepid activist turnout isn’t the problem for conservatives. The problem for conservatives is that there are so few of us. We overestimate our numbers which leads us to expect to project power that doesn’t exist.

What got Reagan elected? Truth. The problem is getting out a message. The problem is the media and flat out cheating in backroom deals in DC. They have control and they will not give it up easily. They lie and cheat and have made voter fraud an art.

It was quite winnable.

You can’t count on any talk show hosts. What they do is their jobs. They’ll only scream so loud. But they’re not going to do anything to upset their apple carts. Or bank accounts.

Stop listening to them. They’re not helping so why support them?

Well said. Until we get out of this “next election we will fix it syndrome” we will never be able to make a stab at trying to save this country.

The NWO is winning and we continue to live in denial.

Far too many American Tea Party patriots were just “too dammed lazy”

As a retiree (with supposed lots of free time) I actually have less time, due to keeping up with my own Govt persuing me, and due to taking of the chores to fight my immediate threats (pay the bills, take care of my family which is negatively affected by current economy, etc....).

The problem is: none of the suggested cures have enough of a chance of success to warrant participation. In my case, I have to be extremely efficient (age, strength, resources).

Mailings want my $, only to use it to request more $.

Republicans are lying out their rectums, while endangering mine.

Rant ....

The only cure is the force of GOD, requested by prayer.

Any other physical action must be weighed carefully. Further ‘Free Speech’ is chilled by the NSA.

The error made by many conservatives is that political power only resides in Washington.

Take back your local towns and counties from Rats. Then start a thousand brushfires. The Founders left us a blueprint to fight tyranny. Look up Committees of Safety.

NWO...good old Georgie boy. I’m proud to say I never voted for him. I stayed home both times. I wish I had stayed home in 2008 and 2012 and saved my gas. I didn’t waste any gas in 2014 and I won’t be wasting any gas in 2016 unless a true conservative from a third party is running.

If you really think one person is going to fix that you need to retthink myour thoughts. Sarah Palin or Ted Cruz can’t fix the damage that has been done. Time to wake the heck up.

I have no argument with your comment.

I left the R party in 2007.

I have always found liberals to be more activist by nature than conservatives. Activism runs on emotion, not rationality.

More and more matters that should be local ARE being concentrated in Washington DC, we need to fight that every step of the way also.
