Conservatives also rebelled when he nominated that old unprepared lady for the supremes also. He withdrew that one quickly and put in her place a more real choice.

Travis:
Boy it sure is good to see you again, I have missed you. The last time I seen you was in San Diego when Jim Robinson and Amy were there. I hope you are in good health and doing well. All is well here in the Texican's house, other than getting older. (83 in just four days)

Good morning and the very best to you and yours.

Sometimes listening to, or reading Pat makes me scream at what I consider are his crazy beliefs. Other times, I shout and holler my agreement. This time, it’s the latter.

Because, Peggy, down deep where they live, they don't like the right, never did and have always sought to be seen by the Big Media as the progressive children of a dysfunctional and retarded family.

I actually don't believe that. From what I can see here in DC, this is mostly being driven by big business donors who repeat mantras to themselves thinking it will make things true. Its odd to see here in DC. A room full of Republicans, with most concerned about this crappy bill, but the richest donors are the ones who get listened to.

Lock and load is coming. However, in the mean time:(1) I have been a member of the Republican Party since 1959;(2) on todays date I E-Mailed our Secretary of State requesting a change in my registration from Republican to "Declines to State." The form will come in two weeks.

I would urge every Republican to change their party affiliation to "Declines to State" or the local equivalent. You will still be able to vote for the less filthy candidate of your choice and you may vote on any recall or any referendum, thus will suffer no loss of franchise.

But both were attempts to poke a stick in the eye of the loyal conservative base to which both NWO boys owed their election.

Actually, that's wrong.

They didn't want the base to have a stick in their eye.

They wanted to speak to the MSM and the RAT leadership, in code, to tell them not to worry, without letting the dumb base in on the story.

[For President Bush has attacked his own loyalists for a lack of patriotism. “If you don’t want to do what’s right for America,” he said of opponents of the Bush-Kennedy immigration bill, “if you want to scare the American people, what you say is the bill’s an amnesty bill. That’s empty political rhetoric, trying to frighten our citizens.”]

What a disappointment this President of the U.S. is become.

The thing is, the significant electoral politics takes place at the nomination primary and GOP State Committee election level. If one leaves the party, one leaves it to the squish corporate parasites.

This thread title brought to the forefront some of my concerns, but in a different way.

I feel it is time to “Lock & Load” at home.

I have two pistols, a Sig 226 (.40 cal) and a Ruger 22mm.

I am thinking about a pump Shotgun, and a rifle or two.

I assume for the shotgun, I would get a 12-gauge, with a relatively short barrel for home defense. Any brands/models to recommend?

There are so many different rifle calibers, I’m not sure what I should look at. I want something I can hunt local deer with and something that would allow me to hold the perimeter of our 4 acres if needed.

Also, cost of ammo is a concern. I’ve purchased pistol ammo from Georgia Ammo, so I’m not opposed to buying bulk on the Internet.

I will go to the range to practice and have been around guns my entire life. I just want to go ahead and get some of these before someone in Washington decides that I don’t need them.

Thanks for your help.
p.s. I am also researching at www.thefiringline.com

My wife thinks I’m nuts for yelling at the TV because she says it doesn’t change anything and I tell her “Yes, it does, it makes me feel better.” But what really feels good, is to take the TV out to the desert, pretend to see some slime bag politician on the screen lying to the public as always...and then the joy of locking and loading my 1878 .45-70 breach-loader and blowing the TV to bits with it. Thank goodness we seem to have a never-ending supply of old TV’s and old computer monitors.

[His free-trade zealotry has led to five straight record trade deficits. While America’s economy is now growing at under 1 percent, China’s is booming at 10 percent. His refusal to defend and secure the borders is well-nigh impeachable. His compromises with Teddy Kennedy on No Child Left Behind have doubled the size of the Department of Education without any appreciable gain in test scores. His “Big Government Conservatism” marks him as his father’s son, not Reagan’s heir.]

The whig party reminds me of today’s republican party, moderates that appeal to no one, and they disappeared because of it.

Because of the drastically increasing cost of ammo, choose a caliber that makes economic sense to reload or buy in bulk on the internet, then choose your guns based on the cost of ammo. I have inherited my ancestors’ 1878 .45-70 trapdoor and a Springfield .30-40 Krag from the Spanish American war. Ammo for these two run well over a dollar per round whereas I can buy ammo in bulk for my .45, my .30 carbine and my British .303 for around 20 cents a round. In our area, even .22’s now cost twice what they used to.

The party has long been controlled by many interests adverse to the American People.(Today it appears we are no longer a "People" but merely a population or market whatever!)For me things have come to a head. I have been thinking about changing party affiliation for about six months. This "Amnesty" bill finally tipped the balance as we are being over run by Latins-an alien population. I will be notifying the RNC today.

Once this rather mild protest is ignored, and after a few years then "Lock and Load!"(As the man says.)

The next election will be a landslide for the socialists (I.E. dems) as the GOP base storms off totally disillusioned and disapointed with the repubs. I will vote for Mickey Mouse.
