Barack Obama has awakened a sleeping nation.
Obama is the symbol of a creeping liberalism that has infected our society like a cancer for the last 100 years. Just as Hitler is the face of fascism, Obama will go down in history as the face of unchecked liberalism. The cancer metastasized to the point where it could no longer be ignored.
There is a level of political activism in this country that we haven't seen since the American Revolution, and Barack Obama has been the catalyst that has sparked a restructuring of the American political and social consciousness.
Think of the crap we've slowly learned to tolerate over the past 50 years as liberalism sought to re-structure the America ...
Literally millions of Americans have had enough. They're organizing, they're studying the Constitution and the Federalist Papers, they're reading history and case law, they're showing up at rallies and meetings, and a slew of conservative candidates are throwing their hats into the ring. Is there a revolution brewing? Yes

It’s Leftism.
As my tagline read for a long time:
“Liberals are blind. They are the dupes of Leftists who know exactly what they’re doing.”
JFK was a liber. He was also an anti-communist.
Obammie the Commie makes JFK turn in his grave.

Obama will go down in history as the face of unchecked liberalism. Not liberalism. Leftism. Socialism. Fascism. Madcap Populism. College Coffee-klatch Marxism. But not liberalism.
The founders were classic liberals. We need to stop letting them steal our name.

I have never seen conservatives motivated like they are now and I campaigned for Goldwater.

No kidding. I suspect once this health bill passes we will never get out from under it.
To: george76
I sure as hell hope so. The country of ours needs to put the breaks on the politicians and shut them down for six months. Send them all home. There’s nothing that they are doing that can’t wait for six months. Cut their pay while they are gone and tell them if they don’t start doing the people business, we’ll cut their pay for the rest of the year.

He’s on to something. There are now even some liberals who want Obama to call off the health care bill, feaing that it’s badly written and will undermine liberal efforts in other areas.

Something needs to happen NOW to make the news cycle tomorrow and affect this vote. Someone should start a brainstorming post for emergency brainstorming. Here's one: Perhaps Sarah Palin can make a public appeal asking house democrats like Ben West to retire as heroes by revealing Pelosi threats (audio would be nice) and halting this travesty now.

To: theDentist
The sleeping nation has rolled over and gone back to sleep.
