Look at how the DC government reacted to the Heller ruling. Just ignore it and wait to fight it out in a hopefully more left-friendly Supreme Court.

you guys seen this poll yet ???

At some point, there will be a meaningful and decisive conclusion to this trend. The resulting depth of discomfort and duration thereof will depend on many variables. However, we are one very unknown variable. So far, we have operated with restraint and to a large degree will continue to do so. But they're not making it easy. At some point, if they keep this up, we'll break from our current pattern of restraint and then nobody will be happy for a time...us included.

You have no idea of how many thought it was some communist propaganda.

Very scary! Brought to you by the NEA, the liberal media and the socialists/communists in our government!

The constitution was written by successful White Christians so it has to go. Maybe Obama can get a group of unsuccessful tokens from every race gender religion and weird deviation to write a socialistic atheistic police state document that will bring the era of American exceptionalism to a halt.

I never understand why a true socialist wouldn't just move to one of the many socialistic countries that have the socialized medicine and all the other centralized cradle to grave planning that they want, and leave America the land of the free alone. Every liberal idea and policy has already been tried to the fullest extent somewhere and the resulting ruined the lives of millions of people cannot be retroactively undone.

Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!

“TO UPHOLD, PROTECT, AND DEFEND THE U.S. CONSTITUTION, AGAINST ALL ENEMIES, FOREIGN OR DOMESTIC...”

Having to EXPLAIN the whole concept of Citizenship to a cop yesterday was bad enough; NOW, I have to do it for 71% of the most ignorant dunderheads in the nation...

Let’s hope we don’t have to explain it to the DOMESTIC part the hard way.

Geez, I am SOOOOOOOOO sick of these B*stards.

You forgot Breyer, although I don’t think he’s old enough to retire yet. Is Souter?

“Three reasons for any stragglers to bite the bullet and vote McCain/Palin: Ginsburg, Souter, Stevens. They need proper replacing.”

Amen, Amen, AMEN! This is specifically what it comes down to.

But as Sean Hannity says; “we don’t question their patriotism”. Whatever that means.

I resent that remark! I believe that at least 90% of Liberals would recognize that Sony label on their TV warranty page!

Yeah. Jedediah Sony. One of the “signers” of the Constitution.

It was he that insisted that the Constitution include provisions for free breakfasts and lunches for all ....ahem....inner city youths, as well as $1000.00 gift cards for flood “victims”.

“...I never understand why a true socialist wouldn’t just move to one of the many socialistic countries...”

I’ll tell you why, brother:

Because the definition of “peace” in the socialist/communist dictionary is “The Absence of Opposition to Our Goals”. Right from Lenin.

As long as WE exist, WE represent the TRUTH to the LIE of their ideology; OUR very existence renders their existence moot. People have somewhere else to go as long as WE exist. And the communists can’t STAND that. There’s a REASON their guns point INWARD, and ours point OUTWARD. There’s a REASON people jump over their walls - to get OUT and get HERE.

You can’t wish them away; unfortunately, you have to MAKE them go away. Co-existence is NOT an option, because they DO NOT UNDERSTAND, NOR CARE ABOUT, THE IDEA OF LIVE AND LET LIVE.

These are the choices:

1. Give up/Give in/Go along to Get Along - otherwise known as “The French Connection” - soooo successful, wasn’t it - and they’re watching their country get overrun, undermined, and absorbed my Muslim trash because they lost the WILL to defend their culture, their faith, and their civilization...One of the best quotes I ever heard, concerning the French - “their latent voluptuousness combines with their Gallic laziness, and the result - they’d rather eat and make love with their faces than fight...” About sums it up. To be fair, they have people overseas with us now, and they’re taking hits to help us. Maybe there’s hope for them. I don’t know.

“I have but one lamp by which my feet are guided, and that is the lamp of experience. I know no way of judging the future but by the past...”
- Patrick Henry

2. Run away (they’ll follow you - America is PROOF of that, as people left Europe and Asia in droves, and brought socialis/communist ideology with them. Thank the Dems’ and Teddy Kennedy for that, opening up the borders back in 1965 and removing all immigration restraints (”it was racist!!!!”), remember?). The best, brightest, and toughest of our people left other lands way back in the day, came here to build something good, decent, and better, and it worked for a very long time - proof of concept. Immigrants came a little bit at a time, and were assimilated into the culture of Americanism, and became Americans, and were grateful to be here; they UNDERSTOOD the whole concept of it.

“War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.”
- John Stuart Mill

3. Be prepared to FIGHT LIKE HELL to maintain The American Experiment. Decide how far are you willing to go to protect this...If not, this is DONE. Gone. Footnote in history. “Yeah...they were here for a while, but WE’RE here now...”

Future generations (that would be our progeny) will be taught that we were nothing but racist, white, capitalist, religious extremists forcing our views on poor, oppressed people the world over - instead of the greatest, most free, open society and land of opportunity that we truly are..

And they’ll have to believe it or be killed, and won’t even realize it.

And they’ll have nothing to look across the seas to compare their existence to and say - “over there...THAT’s where I can be something better...THAT’s where I can make a little bit for my family, have a decent home, my kids will be safe...food in my kids’ bellies, and by the sweat of MY own labor, the force of MY own will, and the grace of God...I - CAN - BE- AN- AMERICAN...”

All that will be gone...replaced by something much, much worse, malignant, and downright evil.

For the record - option 1 and 2 are NOT options for me. I don’t want my kids living in a Worker’s Paradise.

THAT’s what this election represents to me.

This is another Battle of the Vietnam War - a chance for a generation of Patriots to nail the lid SHUT on the commie hippie dirtbags and their stupid ideology that betrayed them while they were in the field, serving righteously, with honor, with valor, and for a good cause. The cause of defending innocent people from slaughter by subhuman animals is ALWAYS righteous, and God has a place reerved in Heaven for those that have answered that call.

A decorated Vietnam Veteran running for President (who I don’t always agree with and has pissed me off mightily at times, but I won’t be KILLED for disagreeing with), versus the hand-picked, controlled empty suit puppet of the aging commie VietCong supporting left (who will make every attempt to destroy what better men than himself have built - subtly, slowly, and with determined patience).

Clear choice for me.

I question their patriotism...they HAVE no patriotism, and they have no allegiance, other than to the Internationale Komintern.

Call them what they are; the more you do, the more those who aren’t paying attention will hear and begin to ask “Why are you saying that?” And you can patiently explain the facts to them.

That’s my beef with Hannity as well, brother. Every time Colmes (Skeletor) opens his stupid mouth, Hannity has a chance to say who they are, and he won’t.

Rush and Glenn Beck are the only one that calls them what they are - hnce, the drive for the Fairness Doctrine, to shut talk radio (and Free Republic) down.

You nailed it. It's not that they want to go somewhere else where communism is practiced. It's that America is yet to be fully conquered, and is therefore considered fertile ground. Our people should have long ago shifted into the mindset required for a war. Call it what you want; a culture war, political war, a war of philosophies, a civil war... But it's a war all the same.

Additionally, you have to think of this in terms of somebody who can't have what you have, but they want to make it such that you can't have it, even though they would never have it anyway. This is what drives these people. They're too short sighted to realize that they really don't want communism here in America. But they see what we have because of God's grace and the blessing of a conservative lifestyle, and they hate us for it. They would never by choice have what we have, but they'll fight to keep us from having it as well. It's rather akin to a scorched earth policy in a war. We should bear that in mind when dealing with these people.
