Jumping Ship… (VDH)

I don’t know where you come from, but I am from Pennsylvania. If you think that the good old boys from PA would ever allow anything like reeducation camps, then you don’t understand the types of ARSENALS these individuals have. It would be a civil war and trust me - the lefties would lose- HARD.

I'm near Pittsburgh and many Dems I know of are weak on McCain but don't like Obama either because he is too elite in thinking or let's just say many of them still have a "George Wallace" mentality. If there has to be some hope, I think the "Archie Bunker" crowd may come out in droves. I don't care the motivation, I just want boots on the ground to counter the Obama-zombies. Still, the big pimple on PA's butt is the Philly area.

[Mr. Peabody]

From Eric Hoffer: “What the intellectual craves above all else is to be taken seriously, to be treated as a decisive force in shaping history. He is far more at home in a society that weighs his every word and keeps close watch on his attitudes than in a society that cares not what he says or does. He would rather be persecuted than ignored. “

[Matchett-PI]

You’re welcome. I agree!!

Article is hogwash and BS.

They're running scared now and trying to quell the rhetoric sure to expose BHusseinO for what he really is!

Associations MATTER!

"Judge a man by the company he keeps!"

"Jeremiah Wright"
"Raila Odinga"
"Antoin 'Tony' Resko"
"William Ayers"
"Saul Alinsky"
"Father Michael Pfleger"
"Franklin Marshall Davis"
"Louis Farrakhan"
"ACORN"
"Wade Rathke"
"Rashid Khalidi"
"the socialist New Party"

— EXPOSE THE ENEMY!

— EXPOSE THE ENEMY RELENTLESSLY!

[Smokin' Joe]

Arsenals or no, organization and logistics would still be a big deal, and it’s easier to get it in place now than later.

True, that. People forget the Street Gangs would likely be the Storm Troopers of the New Left, and that they are organized, not squeamish about being brutal nor violent, and established all over.

If we don't want to be blitzkreiged, we'd best have our ducks in a row before the SHTF. Contingency planning.

Obama is spending the day in Pennsylvania. Four stump speeches. Last night the local Boston news mentioned that McCain’s lead in Ohio is shrinking, then added, gleefully, that no republican has ever won the White House without Ohio. I hope McCain has a very big rabbit to pull out of that hat of his.

Still, the big pimple on PA's butt is the Philly area.

Exactly. Rife with voter fraud, Philthydelphia is one of the few areas in PA which votes heavily Demoncrat. In 2004, it voted over 4-1 for Kerry, cascading more than 400,000 extra "votes" into the Kerry column - way more than enough to sink Bush by 145,000 votes statewide.

Like Wayne County (Detoilet) in Michigan, such immense pluralities inevitably linked to massive voter fraud carry the day over their generally conservative (and otherwise honest) states.

[Taxman]

Exactly!

One cannot waller with pigs and not expect to get muddy!
