I didn’t have too much trouble switching from Santorum to Romney, but going for Jebbie in 2016 may be far, far more than I can bear.

Amen. 10-4. Roger that. ANYONE stupid enough to think Obama or government cares, is a total lost cause in the “mind” department.

YOur post describes most of my tenants to a tee! It is frightening to see first hand how inept most are in handling life in general.

I believe it all comes down to personal responsibility. It seems to have disappeared from our society, maybe starting with having sex with whomever and "taking care" of the problem as a result of your actions. I tell anyone who will listen, choice is before you have sex, then you man up and accept the consequences of your actions. But no one seems to want to do that anymore. Nothing is their fault no matter what their actions result in, it is someone else's fault, they have a perfect example right in front of their faces everyday to learn from, the POTUS.

What really lost Romney the election? A dumbed-down and bought-off electorate. If the people are stupid enough to vote for the Great Nothing, then so be it and they will get what they deserve. I feel we here did what we could, as the saying goes, you can lead a horse to water....

The Phrase That Lost Romney the Election

"...and I am a MORMON."

We're we REALLY so dumb to think that GOD would let a believer in such a heresy as MORMONism run a country that...

 

 

 

Mayflower Compact

 

In the name of God, Amen. We, whose names are underwritten, the loyal subjects of our dread Sovereign Lord King James, by the Grace of God, of Great Britain, France, and Ireland, King, defender of the Faith, etc.

Having undertaken, for the Glory of God, and advancements of the Christian faith and honor of our King and Country, a voyage to plant the first colony in the Northern parts of Virginia, do by these presents, solemnly and mutually, in the presence of God, and one another, covenant and combine ourselves together into a civil body politic; for our better ordering, and preservation and furtherance of the ends aforesaid; and by virtue hereof to enact, constitute, and frame, such just and equal laws, ordinances, acts, constitutions, and offices, from time to time, as shall be thought most meet and convenient for the general good of the colony; unto which we promise all due submission and obedience.In witness whereof we have hereunto subscribed our names at Cape Cod the 11th of November, in the year of the reign of our Sovereign Lord King James, of England, France, and Ireland, the eighteenth, and of Scotland the fifty-fourth, 1620.

Romney’s business career, which was the central argument for his candidacy in an election dominated by the economy, was turned into a weakness by the left and the Obama campaign early on, with them portraying his experience leading Bain Capital as one of the opposite of care: harm. Laying people off, taking away their pensions, and destroying communities, Mitt Romney allegedly brought all of these across America.

Which can only mean one thing: Today's headline in Pravda war right. Obama was re-elected by a bunch of ILLITERATE idiots in America.

These are the same FOOLS who believed Obama's lies in 2012 the same as they did in 2008.

This country is so f**ked.

Your tagline was rattling around in my head and I couldn’t get it out, so I had to compose an antidote. ;)

“I can’t speak to the Lincoln issue right now, but do know and realize the left will never allow us to live the way we want. They want to force things upon us that have never been acceptable. They will continue to dog us no matter how red a state we live in. The main reason is because they do not want to be held accountable for their actions. Whether it be moral, financial, criminal, or work. They can’t allow an example or a light to exist that might lead people back to basic truth and a foundation.”

This is truly why freedom thou-out human history has been chances to the ends of the earth and to the edges of extinction.

Independence is merely a wall of separation between the bulk of us and the bulk of them. A defense barrier with which against which we hope to hold out our freedom long enough for their own internal despotism to expose & cripple them. This is the roll of the land of the free. This was America’s roll over the last 100 years.

And it is no doubt true that even if we are successful our great grandchildren may have to do it yet again. Such is the cycles of history and the true price of freedom.
