I had a call from a FRiend in South Dakota around 2:30 this afternoon telling me they will visit sometime next winter when they park their motor home in the SoCal desert and drive the car up here. We talked of high diesel prices and then he went on to blast Bush over out of control spending. I reminded him that oil prices had escalated to $125.00 a barrel since the DimRats had taken control of the senate and house and he should direct his displeasure to his Rat reps...

I hear ya, but by friend in MO said that no matter how many facts he presented to his neighbor, she wasn't having ANY of it an it was almost as if she was sayin... "My fact can whup yer facts!" She got so emotional that it made my friend very uneasy.

The trick in politics is that no one ever does anything about anything until someone becomes concerned about something! Then on a MACRO basis with gobs of people... They don't get motivated collectively until somebody that buys ink by the barrel or owns a lot of radio and TV stations whips 'em up into a fervor. Then ya gits "Mob Rule!"

That's what my friend was worried about and that's what's happening and why our arguments will be no better now than peeing into the wind of emotionalism!!!

The pendulum is gonna swing against conservatism, even in the Repellican Party, no matter what, for the next couple of years, at least!!!

The mob is "fired up, and they ain'ta gonna take it no mo!!!" Their man is ridin high an ours is goin down an dat's dat, dude!!!

Here's what I be talkin about in that last reply to ya.

And believe me, sometimes I hate it when I'm right. But conservative Republicans are about to be banished into exile, marginalized in EVERY regard, without representation to ANY meaningful extent. It's going to be depressing, but it will eventually make us stronger... much wiser and stronger.

We sit here on FR and say sagely to each other:"They can't do that to us!" But I'm here to tell you, they've laid all the groundwork and they CAN do "that" to us!!! And they will, for awhile.
