"Honest question....what can we do?"



I know up here in the liberal NE, getting the word out, organizing, anything not ant war leftists, is next to impossible. Word of mouth for our side is slow, heck we don't even get party affiliation on the ballot most of the time. Most folks up here do not mention their conservatism at work, if they need a paycheck. Even some of the churches up here are leftist. Doesn't make organizing things anywhere near as easy as it would be for leftists and their organizations.

Also, I know a lot of people who were there not long ago for the March for Life rally, and people here are not rich, so that they can just go back down again. I understand the need to light a fire under us, but many of us just can't be there.

Most of Michigan is virtually as liberal as New England. Heck, we just re-elected a far left wing Governor and Senator during the worst economy this state has experienced in my lifetime.

At least NE has Lieberman........and Tom Brady........

People shouldn't be expected to travel 100-plus miles. But there are certainly enough serious conservatives -- hell, serious patriots -- in metro-area DC to mount a large demonstration.

Those in liberal areas need to understand two things: One, your life won't end if liberal assholes in your community, or even at work, look down on you. Nor will your job end in most cases. Two, men are dying in Iraq. The least we can do is make our own lives a little less comfortable.
