And a very optimistic form of patriotism. Reagan never disparaged his own country.

Strength through superior fire power.

Keep your guns nearby and your ammo dry.

Obviously Reagan did not defeat Marxism. It simply went underground to fight another day. And now...a marxist has gained control of the US. Doesn’t look much like a defeat to me.

You have good points.

One way or another, Socialism will be demonstrated and people will see the light.

Anything we can do to speed up this process and shortening the learning curve is worth thinking about.

Sacrificing much for two or four years may give us a future. If we don’t, we have no future and neither do our kids.

Quit spending! It’s for the children! ;-)

A bankrupted federal government is part of the marxist’s plans. You have to take EVERYTHING away before you can give ANYTHING back.

Can you say EURO????

Get our own house in order for the fights to come and pay these mfers back, measure for measure for 8 years of hate and discontent. I will extend to them every courtesy that they extended to us. Dirtbag traitors.

Starve government schools of their pupils, remove your children from liberal colleges.



Do not join the military, do not reup.

Hide your income.

Ride the Democrats in congress daily with calls for "where's all my free stuff and why aren't you paying my mortgage and all my bills like you said".

I like this idea. I could call up Carl Levin, give him the name of the bank where my mortgage is held, and ask him how soon to expect the check. I think this would be a great letter-writing and phone-calling campaign.

Just do it totally matter-of-fact and straight-faced, like good old Aunt Jane innocently inquiring whether or not little Barry received the gift I sent, since I haven't gotten my thank you yet. I ignored most of what Obama said during the campaign, but I am sure we could go back and find the laundry list of promises.

I’d really like to see a clear plan for this that I can follow.

How do you fight half of America actually believing either that Obama isn’t a socialist or he is and they prefer to live under a socialistic society?

What again is the weak link in socialism? I believe its the ability of the government to actually deliver the goods they promised.

Will your gas and mortgage bills be paid by the government? what if something happens domestically that prevents that?

A year from now you who voted for Obama is living on a government stipend much like welfare, you have no desire to work, you probably cannot afford a new TV much less a car, forget about bling or even eating out.

Forget the American dream because you gave it up so you can sit in your house not being productive, you are now part of the dry rot of a future America.

I am on the verge of praying for a nuclear attack in the United States right now, any terrorist attack, something to wake up America.

You have made your bed, now sleep in it. That is unless you have to share it with your neighbore.
