Good point...but better late than never, right?

Not necessarily. We need to focus our energy on productive efforts, not spinning off at the edges. Start the groundwork for the future, but that horse won't run this time around.

There are a lot of very brilliant people who believe that the nation-state is fast becoming a relic of the past.

We can’t be so fixated on our desire to preserve the rights of ordinary Americans...

The purpose of government is to rein in the rights of the people.

When we got organized as a country and we wrote a fairly radical Constitution with a radical Bill of Rights, giving a radical amount of individual freedom to Americans ... And so a lot of people say there’s too much personal freedom. When personal freedom’s being abused, you have to move to limit it. That’s what we did in the announcement I made last weekend on the public housing projects, about how we’re going to have weapon sweeps and more things like that to try to make people safer in their communities.

Bill Clinton Socialism quotes:

http://quotes.liberty-tree.ca/quotes/socialism

http://savannahnow.com/node/423507

Bill Clinton’s 1994 crime bill introduced the “three strikes and you’re out law” and stiffened sentences for drug offenders. Also in the crime bill, Clinton told those involved with drug activities in public housing projects they only get one strike because “public housing is a privilege; abuse it and you’re out.”

The dems see Bill as their star. They with the MSM can see NO wrong in this man. It will be the same for Hillary when she’s elected.

The dem’s have the upper hand and it’s called indoctrination (socialism taught in public schools & colleges). Equal housing, wages, healthcare and so forth. You would be surprised at how many voting age students believe in government controlled little pink houses for you and me. Homosexuals are using the same tactic by indoctrinating the children. You all know this.

Beaten? Perhaps but not enough Christians vote for various reasons.

1. Some wrongly believe that voting is unchristian.

2. Others believe the worse things get the faster Jesus Christ will return.

3. Others don’t want to lose their tax exempt (it all about the money).

I was a mod on a Christian forum for about 4 years and I heard all the wrong excuses. It’s a shame that the so called “Christian”/Conservative/Republicans could not reach those who do not vote.

The 3 above examples are wrong but so is being a “polictical Christian” in name only. Sure does not do much for being the salt of the earth.

I doubt most here could ever find a conservative, who is conservative enough with the skills to get elected.

Bring on the little pink houses or maybe that will be a tower sitting on an acre of land that can house 500 people (the green dream).
