On the other hand, LucyT; after reading the other posts, just forget it. Guess I thought I was dealing with adults here and miscalculated. Have a nice day.

Time to read and think about the best comment I have seen on FR for many a long day:

To: NoObamaFightForConservatives; Frantzie; BonRad; MHGinTN; Txngal; joygrace; flaglady47; ...

Sorry, NoObama, my response wasn’t to you. It was for all of those whiny cry babies that give up whenever there’s a setback. BTW, Leo Donofrio is filing a supplemental brief to his case, and there are a LOT more cases coming down the pike ... this is FAR from over!

A few weeks back, when Leo was being lauded for the sacrifices he’s made to get his SCOTUS case this far, he compared those of us in this fight to maintain our Constitution to a V-formation of Geese.

As we know, the same Goose is not at the front all of the time. The lead Goose brunts hardest flight, beaconed by the calls of those behind. When the lead Goose tires, it will fall back to take a rest. Instinctively, a different Goose will assume the position at the front of the V-formation. Geese can fly 70 percent farther by adopting the V-shape rather than flying in isolation.

That’s “Teamwork.”

It’s also “Self Sacrifice.”

For those of you who want to throw in the towel — thank you for your help to get this far. Take a breather, collect your thoughts, search your soul, but don’t fall out of formation. If you were at the front earlier this year, got frustrated and dropped out completely, we’d love for you to rejoin the formation.

I’m not giving up. I can’t. I see the day-to-day watering down of our Constitution and I know if I ignore it, I’m an accomplice. I know we are approaching a tipping point from which there will be no return. I will keep fighting until there is no fight left in me. I will continue to assert my First Amendment rights for as long as I have them.

If there’s a scintilla of citizenship and patriotism left in you, I hope you can join those of us who wish to maintain the Rule of Law. I hope you help defend our Constitution from those who wish to re-interpret the Framer’s wisdom. Because right now ... there aren’t a whole lot of people out there willing to stand up and *ACT* — to ensure our nation doesn’t squander what our Forefathers risked so much to pass on to us, our children, and our children’s children.

And all things being equal — I’d much rather be with a flock of Geese than a flock of Sheep.

You’ve definitely miscalculated. The only people answering you on this forum are adults.

You are using the ALINSKY method of disruption.

Please check out my tagline.
