Patronage System = State Government of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

Read “The Brothers Bulger” by Howie Carr and you’ll get some insight into how the patronage system works.

It’s government jobs to those who do nothing. They will probably pay them if they don’t show up.

It’s an outrage and I would advise fighting tooth and nail.

As I have stated before the Republic is over and our freedom is gone there will never be another election that is a real election as it is in Chicago:

As stated by a very SMART Founder:

“I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.”

Thomas Jefferson

“My reading of history convinces me that most bad government results from too much government.”

Thomas Jefferson

what the hey is a ‘Patronage system?’

Where every job must be assignerd and approved by the Head of State, Head of City or Head of Country PERSONALLY and the recipient will loose the appointment for any real or imagined failure in his loyalty to the government official. Example: All jobs in city government in Chicago belong to Mayor Daley!

Obama has a secret plan.

Trans: He doesn't have a clue on what the hell to do.

The end of the two party system, indeed, but the Republicans gave it away. If they had stuck to conservative ideals and Reaganomics and had not abandoned these principles the Democrats couldn’t have stepped in and taken advantage.

Obama is going to set off a civil war in this country before it is all over. I sure as hell am not going to sit around and allow the democrats to confiscate my property,guns, money and liberty without a fight.

Unfortunatly the only way to stop them is for the total collapse of the financial system to bust the Federal Ponzi and States to reassert their rights.

Bingo. Buying loyalty, the Chicago way.

I am astounded by how may FReepers don’t get it yet.

Rome is burning! Chickens are roosting! (And, McLame is still looking to reach across that proverbial aisle.)

Me, lookin’ for ammo, ASAP.

Who exactly will reassert the States’ rights? I don’t see it happening. States are already so dependent on the federal government.

I’m not a big Jefferson fan, but in this case he sure got it right.

“When the time comes, Lock & Load.”

Judging by America’s reaction to takeover thus far the time will never come.

Bunch of sheep!

Enjoy your newly found servitude, Americans!

I wouldn’t want to interrupt whatever you are doing right now to bring to your attention the fact that YOU ARE LOSING YOUR COUNTRY!!!

“I can’t do anything”, “What can I do”, “I have a job”, “It’s someone else’s job, isn’t it?”, “Isn’t this why we elected our representatives?”

...and on, and on, and on...

I’m ashamed at the do-nothing, sorry-assed, apathetic bunch of lazy cowards that dare call themselves Americans yet sit on the side lines waiting for GOD ONLY KNOWS WHAT to “save” them.

Do you think you can continue to cruise along FAT, DUMB and HAPPY and take no part in this, thus far, ONE-SIDED WAR/SLAUGHTER OF FREEDOM?

NO ONE’S COMING PEOPLE! NO ONE!

IT’S WE AMERICANS WHO HAVE TO DO SOMETHING!

THERE’S ONLY US!

Christ, this is beyond frustrating to witness.

We had all better stand up and fight or get used to living a life of servitude to the left’s agenda.

A life lived as something other than a free people.

Have you considered what that will be like FOR JUST A MOMENT????

You think it’s hard to make ends meet now—you just wait until the left sinks their septic fangs into your family’s livelihood, baby—they have BIG plans for you and your children’s labor.

Do you think 0bama is just kidding around when he touts “sacrifice”. He means it—deadly serious stuff. HE MEANS YOUR SACRIFICE. HE MEANS YOUR SPOUSE’S SACRIFICE. HE MEANS YOUR CHILDREN’S SACRIFICE.

To these people paychecks aren’t private property THEY’RE BUT ANOTHER LEFTIST SUBSIDY!!!!!

THEY OWN YOU!!!!

FIGHT, OR LOSE IT ALL, AMERICA.

The time is NOW! Not next week. Not next month. NOT WHEN IT GETS “BAD ENOUGH”. “BAD ENOUGH” to you bunch of sleepwalkers IS TOO TOO LATE!!!
