RULES FOR RADICALS
"The first step in community organization is community disorganization. The disruption of the present organization is the first step toward community organization. Present arrangements must be disorganized if they are to be displace by new patterns.... All change means disorganization of the old and organization of the new." p.116
"An organizer must stir up dissatisfaction and discontent... He must create a mechanism that can drain off the underlying guilt for having accepted the previous situation for so long a time. Out of this mechanism, a new community organization arises....
"The job then is getting the people to move, to act, to participate; in short, to develop and harness the necessary power to effectively conflict with the prevailing patterns and change them. When those prominent in the status quo turn and label you an 'agitator' they are completely correct, for that is, in one word, your function—to agitate to the point of conflict." p.117
"'The organizer's first job is to create the issues or problems,' and 'organizations must be based on many issues.' The organizer 'must first rub raw the resentments of the people of the community; fan the latent hostilities of many of the people to the point of overt expression. He must search out controversy and issues, rather than avoid them, for unless there is controversy people are not concerned enough to act. . . An organizer must stir up dissatisfaction and discontent.'"
"...the organizer is constantly creating new out of the old. He knows that all new ideas arise from conflict; that every time man as had a new idea it has been a challenge to the sacred ideas of the past and the present and inevitably a conflict has raged." p.79/b>
"The third rule of ethics of means and ends is that in war the end justifies almost any means...." p.29/
Maybe Islamabama is promising round the clock armed guard protection for when they go home. Maybe some of those government jobs being created in D.C. are SS agents being hired to protect democrats in congress.
what is the code to capture and post a photo, I don’t remember it
While a majority of adults are very concerned about this power grab by the socialists in government - what about the age group of 18-25 years-old who may not realize how much this will cost them in money and freedom? They are, after all, the demographic not yet concerned with ill health.
To this point, the young have had the freedom to choose how to spend their own earned income. Witness the fashion, music and electronic doo-dads. Perhaps they will rebel against their Marxist oppressors instead of their parents.
Shame on us if we failed them.
Yeah, but we still remember him as a “transformational” historic figure. Perhaps Obama will go down in history as “Il Douche.”
What happens to all your loans and house when your country falls apart? It seems to me that nothing that is actually “ours” is actually “ours” in this scenario.

Last week during the Fox interview, oDumbo said to Bret that “...we are not going to take control of 1/6th of the enconmy in one swoop...it takes time...” well this was what I recall he said.
Very telling indeed of the takeover of country.
Alinsky doesn’t apply to Obama anymore. Alinsky is for rabblerousers, for people outside of “the system”. The outcomes are not the same for leaders.
Alinsky doesn’t apply to Obama anymore? That’s crazytalk. Alinsky is the same as Cloward-Piven is the same as Gramsci:
Overflow the system to collapse it, for the sake of the socialist takeover, for the sake of the worker’s communist state.
Get real.
I would be willing to bet that the majority here regard this as tinfoil and wacko.
But the truth is....this is as real as a heart attack.
Do some research on the Hegelian Dialectic.
nope, now that they have power on the inside.....they will try to complete the task......Michelle and Obama were quoting Alinsky during the campaign and even as late as June of last year
The Congress will need to retreat to a Green Zone surrounding the Capitol ~ first, they will build a 12 foot chainlink fence.
“Nor will they be able to shop in stores, go to movies, attend church or do anything at all in public ~ without being hassled in some manner.
The Congress will need to retreat to a Green Zone surrounding the Capitol ~ first, they will build a 12 foot chainlink fence.”
They probably have everything provided for them. They don’t have to go out in the real world like the rest of us.
The French and Indian War
1754"
We lost that one.
That sort of thing was replaced by Party Positions.
The only thing I can say is what happened to loans and houses in 1861?
They'll want out and that's where they'll discover all their weaknesses.
OK, I am not saying Obama doesn’t use Alinsky, what I am saying is that the outcome is not the same.
Obama and his Communist and Socialist friends had failed to take into account for two thing! Time is on our side and the vast majority of people in the country are “center right” and DO NOT want a Socialist nanny state.
Like most dictators and would be dictators Obama has been trying to create a personal security force. We are lucky that Obama’s attempt to form a “National Security Force, a force totally controled by OBAMA has been too little and to late! We are also lucky that we have the United States Military and OUR State and local security forces. They will stand together and they WILL NOT fire on U. S. Citizens!
They WOULD open fire on rioting thugs, those killing, burning, rioting, looting and stealing in “the hood”.
