I’ve been lurking on PUMA forums. They’re tough. They email. They work at their local Republican headquarters. They phone bank. They go to the rallies. They talk to their family and friends.

THEY WORK HARDER FOR MCCAIN/PALIN THAN WE DO!!!

We need to get off our sorry butts and work just as hard as they do.

This is the battle we’ve been waiting for - but rather than leading, have we been waiting for a leader to command us? Rather than fighting, have we been waiting for a fighter to fight our battles for us?

Is this what we have come to? A pathetic, useless pack of whiners, sullenly waiting for a king we want to be handed to us? Or are we our own leaders, worthy of determining our own fate?

We are our own masters. We rule ourselves, we fight our own battles, and only we are capable of being the leader of the free people - ourselves.

We do not need a perfect “leader” to support to do our job for us - we are our own leaders. Either we rise to the occasion and defend ourselves, or we will surrender to slavery at the hands of the elite...

SIC SEMPER TYRANNIS
Now the sleeping eyes awaken;
Startled by the brutish boot
as the Caesar steps, ascending
on the tongues of critics mute -

Thus the lash of tyrants ever
starts so soft, of falsehoods made
‘til the whip with brazen boldness
on the back of truth is laid

Other hands may meekly tremble
other eyes may turn their sight
God help me to face the foe -
I’ll not go down without a fight.

Heart unfettered, lift the banner!
Liberty lives in the Light
Freedom dies when darkness wins;
I’ll not go down without a fight -

Let me grasp the lash with laughter
let my spirit mock the night
Thus to tyrants always, sing -
I’ll not go down without a fight!

I suppose they know from first hand experience what they are up against and what needs to be done.

the problem is not most people on this forum, but is the “i’m taking my toys and going home” crowd that “taught us a lesson” in ‘06 by staying home. And we got pelosi and damn near a depression out of it....these people need to get off of their collective asses, and carry out their civil duty and vote...period

That's true. And it's very, very annoying.

For too many on our side, an election means sitting on your butt and griping about why we aren't winning in the polls.

Amen. I now have HillBuzz and Hillary Forum linked on my blog list. They have good stuff over there before we get it.
