Someone should remind the DHS that we, the people, have way more guns than the entire fed, including the military, and we also have way more combat vets than the current active duty military.

Keep pushing, numbnuts.

These idiots keep talking nonsense and identifying themselves as who they are. Have a nice week and a half, baby. Your time is up soon.

If the Dems think it is critical infrastructure then the Reps should acknowledge that by requiring positive voter ID for national elections.

Of course they'll keep pushing, because they know we ain't gonna do a damn thing about it. Having more guns and more combat veterans than active duty and five bucks will get ya a cup of coffee, so long as we have mortgages to pay, car payments to make, health insurance to buy, a wife and kids to feed and booze to drink while watching the big game on our big screen TV.

I once had high hopes for the likes of the "Oathkeepers" and "3%" organizations. Unfortunately, after seeing obunghole allowed to stay in office despite the clear & direct attack on the Constitution's 'Natural Citizen' requirement, I realize no one, no where is gonna 'get froggy' over any destruction of our rights.

Instead, we're all working hard at becoming frog soup.

If we had fair and trustworthy elections i.e. no voter fraud. The democRATS would lose every time.

Obama and his Obamnabots are trying to finish the destruction of America in Obama’s last two weeks.

It is our good luck that they twiddled away most of the last eight years on the golf course, wallowing in the homo bath houses, getting stoned in
the White House, running Pay-For-Play scams, hustling money at elitist fund raisers, and taking million dollar vacations on the taxpayers dime.

If they had really worked hard at their radical leftist agenda in that time they would have caused a lot more damage and suffering.

If Trump orders DHS to mandate voter ID, how fast would the Dems move to introduce a bill to revoke DHS’s authority?

Demoralization helps set the stage for the Antichrist. Obama has done quite an impression of him. What is creepy is how easily 1/2 of America bought in. And parts of the world too. I once had high hopes for the short term. The professional liars from Hollywood and Congress show they never stop with the lies. Ever.

Which was to say, I agree with your statement pretty much 100%. I've watched too many Americans shrug their shoulders and blow off "conspiracy theories" while Obama and co. work at destroying this country. Much damage has been done. What you described can be categorized into "the cares of this life" because they occupy so much of our time; in the case of Americans (like myself) moreso, especially since 2008. Since it's Jesus, words in red.

Luke 21:34 King James Version (KJV)

34 And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares.

For some reason, we act like we have so much more to lose than the Founders did, but they too had homes, families, jobs, plantations, wealth and more. They gave it all up to form a new Country. We can't even give up one day of it to attend a protest.

To: dware; null and void

As I’ve watched decent jobs fade like Chevy Monzas I watch in astonishment how Americans snap up $40,000 and $50,000 vehicles like apples. I couldn’t even dream of being able to even afford the sales tax or property tax (wish I was back in Texas) on such vehicles. The last new car I purchased was in the late 1990’s.

I hope we bought some time with Trump. Those huge debts are still looming and growing. I saw 2008 coming 2 years beforehand and was blown off by pretty much everybody. I learned it the hard way, more than a couple of ways. And it was worse than I, the oft-tinfoiler (ha), had thought.

I was very, very concerned when I learned how much Bush was borrowing from the Chinese to finance nation-building in Afghanistan and Iraq. I had been too focused on work, “the cares of this life” and the dangers of islamic terrorism (which has only gotten worse).

We live in “interesting times”.

If every vote were checked against the social security system and then double checked to make sure that no vote was double counted—most fraud would end.

The dems would be in trouble.

The dems could not get 3 million extra votes out of california, and millions of extra votes out of big cities they have a hammer lock on.
