DID YOU HEAR ABOUT THIS ONE?

Posted on 06/17/2009 2:18:45 PM PDT by Turret Gunner A20

It happened last night.

There was debate on the floor of the House over some amendments to a spending bill. The amendments were offered by Republicans and concerned funding for ACORN and an investigation into Nancy Pelosi's problems with the CIA.

As I understand the story, the Democrats announced that there would be no more votes that evening, and Republicans started heading home.

When enough Republicans were gone the Democrats headed back to the House floor and called for a vote to end debate on all amendments to the spending bill.

Republicans scrambled to get back into the House, but it was too late. Democrats saved Pelosi and ACORN with their little chicanery. For now.

At least 650,000 people took part in the Tax Day Tea Parties across the country on April 15th of this year.

I know that. But in many towns all across America. Atlanta is a huge city, how many people were there? Point made. The Dems are now all community organizers and that’s all they know how to do. They will be very successful at destroying this country much to the dismay of even their fellow party members and Blue Dog Dems.
We have tea parties and what day do we have them on? WEEK days, oh that’s brilliant. Many people can’t tell there boss they need off of work to attend a tea party and some can’t afford to miss a day of work. It’s all about organizing and you ain’t seen nuthin’ yet. ACORN now has BILLIONS of our tax dollars to use to organize against US. Ain’t life grand?

With no political guidance from the US constitution and the quasigenocide/erosion of similarly mirroring institutions through “legal” populist bullying, there is more interesting politics.

It’s all chaos and stupid from here on out. There is no controling legal authority. It’s gone. People are now wandering in the wilderness the world over.

Americans don’t have it in them. Even here on FR look at the posts on the American Idol thread. The average American has become too PC, lazy and dumbed down.

The typical excuse that Freepers give for not wanting to protest or otherwise get down and dirty is: "We all have jobs to go to and families to support" all the while completely failing to realize that, if these disgusting communists are successful in their totalitarian takeover of the US, all of your devotion to your job won't mean squat, as your money will be taken from you at the government's will, and all your concern for your family won't mean squat, as they will be forced to grow up in a society where they live in fear of an oppressive government, or worse, they grow up completely indoctrinated in the Party. If Freepers really cared about their families, they would lock and load RIGHT NOW.

Fiat currency good for the sheeples only indeed.

There is no more trusty Constitutional Contract on which currency will be based from here on out. This is worse than hyperinflation, it is complete loss of meaning behind the paper and the contract it’s supposed to mean. The sandy ground foundation of the banks took over the Rock of the Constitution, and it has now completely eroded in this political storm.

Who cares about that piece of paper now? Heck, in the spirit of truth, and because of Affirmative Action, who cares about talented production centers and litteracy? They are destroying everything by keeping their illegit power supposedly voted in by the clueless American people. It’s why direct democracy does not work, it’s based on whims and not on institutional bylaws being kept. It’s all meaningless.

Well if you look at the gun and ammo sales since November and the applications for CC permits, I think millions are locked and loaded. But it’s like being all dressed up and no place to go.

So am I. I see in them, what we used to see in American patriots. But that was back in the day before things like American Idol.

nd wait for the Freeperidiots (yes there are quite a few now) who will deliver more sermons about how we can’t lower ourselves to their level because blah blah blah...

You won’t hear me say that. It’s time NOW to get down and dirty or accept it, or leave. Those are the only 3 choices. There are no more choices.

The sensical “dictats” of the Constution are gone. Rest then the temporary “dictats” of its now unprotected and shrinking middle class. Thus comes the rise of the age of whims, of a “business concern”, a cult of the day, a cult of personality or popular dictator, or even a family aristocracy or gangs, each following the next at the Guillotine.

What Freepers need to think of now is to prepare or somehow maintain for a new business in the area of respect of their business. It might mean closing shop temporarily and reallocating some reserve resources (but that will be forced upon by the evil ones ultimately anyhow) until the madness crashes of its own.

Barbarians will pounce from the East, West and South-North to nip that thing in the bud, so let us be ready to even end up at the very best into exile. No flesh as we know it can survive what is about to happen.

For every person that showed up at a Tea Party, I bet there are a half-dozen more that wish they had the balls to show up...

Unfortunately, it doesn't take balls to protest, it takes the effort to pry your butt off the sofa and get out from in front of the idiot box for a while.

So is anyone surprised by this dishonest tactic? These are Dimmycraps.

The only means of escape will be to kill enemies. Under the leaves is another America and land. It’s all in the litteracy of the legit settler who is poor but has to handle the hastles of wealth, swords and Constitutional writs so as to survive until it is peace and justice again for the same poor but rich in spirit.

God and Litteracy will have to rule and flesh’s takings shall not interfere. We are surrounded by “good savages”, ie. animals of the flesh using modern means and ideas to feed by or on. It’s total “live the day” anarchy or this or that time which one sees his or her own treacherous methods favored.

I wish I could believe that this were in preparation for a revolt of some kind, but my gut tells me that a significant number of people are merely trying to get something now that they think they won't be able to get later. Others are just waiting for the first shots to be fired. We'll see eventually, I suppose. But a person can have an entire armory of weapons, and if they are never fired, they are nothing more than useless hunks of metal.

“Americans don’t have it in them. Even here on FR look at the posts on the American Idol thread. The average American has become too PC, lazy and dumbed down.
Look at the Iranians. They feel they were cheated out of their vote. They want their freedom. How long did they wait? How many are protesting? Point made. The tyrant in the WH is daily stripping us of our rights and we can barely muster a few hundred or thousand for tea parties. I seriously see no hope. It pains me to see it, but it’s true and I think most of you know it.”

The only way through this is to call the American People to repent, fast, and pray to Heavenly Father to come to our aid. We can not do it ourselves. We need Divine Intervention, and soon.

T parties were really for those interested in history.

More salient would be to throw condoms in the river, because we really are subsdizing whores and NightClub groupies on free money whose cutes gain the upper hand over the hard worker in our “justice” American Idol system.

For sure, any city supporting things like the gay agenda or what not should be boycotted and fled from like the plague. These haters who impose their “love” are dangerous and strange war mongers.

Three days in sackcloth with bread and water over the world would cool many heads down indeed. Right now it’s the rage of the taker and satan’s legion overrunning every soul with this dang TV.

I will know when the people are ready. They won’t be making reservations and buying tickets. None of that will matter.

They will be so outraged they will take to the streets and worry about tomorrow, tomorrow.

We may not get another fair election. Then what will we do?

At this point in time, our government does not give a damn about what we think.

They will have to be scared of US first.

Our Heavenly Father may have already intervened. He gave us the knowledge and the moral fortitude to do what is right. Whether we do it or not, that is up to us. He can’t do it all for us.

They obviously hadn’t officially closed the session. The Republicans made the mistake of believing their honorable colleagues.
