Thanks 2ndDivisionVet. BTW, people who post the idiotic negative BS about this country in these threads should be given a timeout. If an examination of their posting history shows a bunch more, they are trolls and should not be allowed back. Pinging this to all lists, first time I've pinged all lists in a while.
On Obamacare, Cruz made it clear that November’s elections – particularly Republican efforts to take control of the Senate – should be aimed at one goal. “I think those elections should be about many, many things,” Cruz said. “But they should be about repealing every bloody word of Obamacare.”

Thanks for the ping SC. We all snark about low-info voters, with the assumption they are all leftists.

Unfortunately, it is not always so. My wife is certainly no leftist, but spends too much time on social media and none on FR, so her viewpoint is far different than mine.

There is a challenge getting through to otherwise correct-thinking people without seemingly berating them. As is, they do not see the evil that the left has created as clearly as we do.

The survivors will be freer, I guess...

I hope Ted is prepared to win the Whitehouse and then shut down the EPA, Dept of Educ, get rid of the TSA and pare the DHS back down to what its original charter was and that is a liason agency only. The IRS I don’t even know what to tell him and the BATFE has to go. Then and only then will there be any return to freedom.

To make any difference we have to get rid of whole agencies. I haven't heard any politician speak on those terms. But just as you said, that is what its going to take. You list is a good start.

Thank you for the ping, SunkenCiv- & for your thread, 2ndDivisionVet.

I pray that Senator Cruz is correct & don’t doubt so much that he will be. I don’t personally believe that B0 was “elected” a second time- there are too many lit embers (not just smoke), nor am I so cynical that I believe that so many people are uninformed, misinformed, or apathetic.

I think that more people than we realize are shell-shocked- & getting worse every day.
We need to help people remember that we are not “powerless” & we *each* have to act or else our worse dreads will come true.
We really, really need to somehow secure our voting process as the #1 priority.
imho.

even if we win all branches of elected federal government it would take decades to turn the ship around.

"we"??

That's how we got here, FRiend. The GOP hates freedom as much as the Dems do. 30 years ago, if you'd told me that the GOP would control all three branches of government 2001-2007, I'd have thought it would be the golden age of liberty!

We're doomed. If you're young and have kids ...get out while you can.

If Obomba is replaced by someone of the same political persuasion, someone who is elected to satisfy some yet unfilled diversity checkbox, freedom will be gone forever.

Even a President Cruz will have major difficulty making this prediction come true as the leftists have so thoroughly infiltrated all levels of government.

But I’m more than willing to give him the opportunity. I don’t see any other options.

“Let me tell you something,” Cruz said, according to the Daily Caller. “2016 is going to be the second wave of the return of freedom to this country.”

(((
I pray he is right. Please, God.

Thanks for the ping, SC -— from one of those frequently guilty of negative postings.

Many of the negative posts are placed by Libertarian/Republicans. It is really tiresome.

That is the reason that it is imperative that we shrink the bureaucracy. Reduce the size of every dept of government and close some departments altogether.

2014 will see the beginning of it — having Zero at the helm, accusing everyone of being a hater (codeword for ‘racist’ — he lets his seconds and media shills hurl that one) in between golf games and trying to rule by fiat merely pisses people off even further. And that will definitely get worse as the hollow shell of Obamacare is shown (not surprisingly) to be a humbug job.

I had a tete a tete (sp?) with a family member over an article about one of the fake churches’ BDS b.s., which led to a head to head about the relative’s regurgitation of the PLO line. They got a verbal beheading. Like perhaps everyone, it seems like everyone in the family is an idiot from time to time. :’)
