Does anyone here think that the American People have finally awoken?

Or will they be lulled back to sleep?

Why don’t you go to the next town hall meeting or tea party and ask them if they are going to be “lulled back to sleep”?

I don’t know much - but I know the Obamabots I work with in Cleveland are sick of his crap.

I think that rank & file Democrat voters are finally feeling embarrassed that they voted for NObama.

The hair shirt of embarrassment is hard to put on and take off at will. It sticks for a long time.

Yes, the American taxpayers are fully engaged. I just hope they don’t give up. The GOP is not doing a damn thing as far as I can tell.

We are at that stage where we hug the pillow over our eyes right after we hit the snooze button and think “Man it’s too early to get up.”

But we can’t go back to sleep because we know what is coming in 10 minutes so we lay there and daydream of better times.

Here is how we can tell if the country has awakened: If BHO advocates the public (socialist) option this evening before Congress, if every Republican stood up and walked right out—that would convince me that we have a real uprising going on.

IMHO it will take another 9/11/2001 event to really awaken the American people.

Not yet. But some are stirring. When the giant wakes, the yawn will be heard.

Unfortunately, I believe it will take more of the worst in this country to get the traditional vote skippers engaged and educated before more of the apathy crowd is moved to act.

That said, when you see the tides reach 60 to 65% it will be a good bet America is starting to wake up.

Sadly, I think we’re going to go back to sleep unless Obama continues to be completely outlandish in his claims and attempts to usurp the US Constitution.

I’ll say it again, “The Constitution is NOT negotiable!”

If the MSM keeps carrying his water I don’t think enough people will hear whats going on. The problem with America is the the press has chosen a side, it is a huge problem.

I think the “awakening” is happening now - but we’ve still got a long way to go.

I just hope and pray it is not too late.

Question:
Are the American citizens capable of ‘self governance’?

They value the idea of FREEDOM, but even Republicans look to DC to help them with their local issues (money).
How much are the American people willing to sacrifice for their Freedom?

They just got up and took a leak and went back to bed.

99% of everyone in the world is a bleating sheep. That includes Americans.
