So once again I ask HOW DOES FR PLAN TO REBEL?????? What is the plan???? March on washington, paint signs, WHAT??? Can SOMEONE answer the question??? Everyone is just beating around the bush here,, define REBEL. I believe Jim's plan, and again he can correct me if necessary, which I fully support, is to rebel (again a verb) through grassroots efforts (like the tea parties) against liberalism in the GOP and government as a whole. By doing this, we can put pressure on elected Republicans to either support conservatism or be exposed as liberals. This is EXACTLY what Reagan urged Republicans to do in 1975 (I will post a link below) in which he suggested that, "if there are those who cannot subscribe to these principles, then let them go their way."
If the GOP fails to once again embrace conservatism, then it is time to "let them go the way of the Whigs" as Lincoln and other brave men did when the Whigs refused to embrace the most basic conservative issue of that era -- the abolition of slavery.

Thank you for taking the time (again) to explain the obvious in more detail. I wonder if your efforts will go unnoticed (again).
