Occasionally, when all the other news is quite and the momentum is on our side I venture across the lines to see what problems are brewing on the other side of the wire.
What I've found is leadership with teeth (even though they don't agree with us) seems to be better than lots of speeches and no follow through.
The lefties are moving in with both guns blazing...a couple articles in the Huff Po rail on Obama. Sometimes I feel they're just closet constitutionalists in hiding and need a couple more pushes to bring them into the light.
Point of this post: occasionally we need to step across the aisle for an intel raid and make sure we keep the insurrection moving by staying keenly aware of what the enemy mumbles when they think no one listens.
Bark. Bite. Guard your turf. The conservative movement will never die. Keep it up.

Anyone have their shots caught up enough to stray over to DU and check on those loons?
You can’t pay me enough to stray over to moonbat central...lol
Here’s a tweet from a tech-sector liberal...
“To the Obama apologists: just admit he’s a horrible disappointment, he duped us and let’s move on”
This is from a guy who was gung-ho about obama and is really angry about both the failure to deal with the flight 253 bomber as well the decision to send more troops into Afghanistan. Totally inconsistent.
From the forum home page, there are a lot of libs proclaiming him to be a one term president like Carter, and it looks like they are starting to eat the moderates.
This kind of behavior could explain the defection of Parker Griffith (R, AL-5), because although he's a RINO/DINO who was a model for the BDs, he was probably facing intense heat from the commie left.
I suspect that at the rate they're squawking over there, these same morons who proclaimed an end to conservatism will ensure primary fights from the left and degenerate the DemocRATic party to becoming purely a Communist/Socialist party—like they haven't already done that. In the end, they won't be defeated in large part by conservative attack ads or the typical political rhetoric; the RATs will destroy themselves.
This scenario reminds me of the time when Roosevelt was pushing his court-packing plan in 1937 (I just read it in the book "New Deal or Raw Deal"). The moderate Democrats didn't want to go along and the flaming libs followed the FDR right off a cliff in the 1938 midterms. What did the Republicans do? They shut up and watched the cannibalism as Pat Harrison and the southern dems tear apart his court packing and minimum wage proposals!
2010 is not shaping up to be a 1994. It's shaping up to be a 1938 (GOP: +9 in Senate, +81 in the House).
Mission complete. Now to go vomit...
I venture over there every now and then. The comments don't bother me as much as the bizarre thread layout. It must have been designed by Norman Bates.
Makes one appreciate FR.
“It’s shaping up to be a 1938 (GOP: +9 in Senate, +81 in the House).”
The results of which allowed us to win WW2!(My opinion of course)
