I find this scary, too. No matter how vile, I've never challenged anyone's right to free speech, and if it's over the top such as a threat, let the authorities handle it.

So Hillary wishes we hadn't fielded a candidate this cycle because of Bush, many liberals have expressed that we should have our voting privileges revoked for having voted for Bush, and if you dare to challenge them anywhere they predominate, they will either ignore you or shout you down. I know this forum is for one side only, but we wouldn't shut down our counterparts on the other side I hope unless they clearly broke a law.

We've got to fight the Global Poverty Act, too. We've given enough, and we simply cannot afford it nor afford to set the precedent. I worry they will try to slip it through if we aren't paying attention.

What recourse or checks and balances will we have if Obama wins, Dems prevail in the house and senate, to keep from getting shut down and shut up (I know people are talking weird stuff but it's just talk at this point)? I'm talking nonviolent, legal solutions. The ACLU won't be on our side, the SC might not hear a case, what will we have left?

They'll use subterfuge, say things like guilt by association when it's about judgment, racist when there's nothing racial whatsoever about it, hate speech, etc.

Did Fox News cover that harshly worded statement by the Governor about Obama and his “Ministry of Truth”?

Free Speech: Obama is a Fascist!!!!

**********************************************

Carpetbagger: Do you really think you can shoot all those men? Huh, no Mr. Wales..there's such a thing in this country called justice.

Josey: Well Mr. Carpetbagger, we've got a thing around these parts..called the Missouri boat ride.

*****************************************************

Lone Watie (Chief Dan George): I didn't surrender, but they took my horse and made him surrender. They have him pulling a wagon up in Kansas I bet.

*******************************************************

Ten Bears: It's sad that governments are chiefed by the double tongues. There is iron in your words of death for all Comanche to see, and so there is iron in your words of life. No signed paper can hold the iron. It must come from men. The words of Ten Bears carries the same iron of life and death. It is good that warriors such as we meet in the struggle of life... or death. It shall be life.

Photobucket ************************************************

Obama is not a warrior. He is a coward.And he will sooner or later see the iron in America's soul. I pray that it be sooner.

Yeah. I expect to be one of the first ones loaded into a “cattle car.”

That will not happen. The military will not turn on the civilians. The civilian population particularly in the West and South and Midwest of our nation are armed. Many are ex military. A few in the military would obey an unlawfull order to attack civilians, most would not. Some would desert and some would desert and join the civilians in the fight.

They would try to take our weapons first. As Charlton Heston said, "From my cold dead hands."
