So we’re saying that we’ve reached the place in American history where a mob can show up on private property, make threats against the occupants of the house, have police protection while doing it, and that the citizens in that home will be expected to evacuate their home and show no resistance because the mob belongs to a political class favored by the police and the legal system.

How very National Socialist.

As Neil Boortz calls them, “the moocher class.”

They are at least 47% now and growing—paid no federal taxes at all.

As long as QE 3 is basically bailing out the municipal bond market...doubt will happen.

Asking Texas to bail out Illinois or California directly tho...no way!!!

Perhaps one more can be added to the list. Things can move very fast and we have to consider the fact it would not be out of the realm of possibility for Obama, Holder and their Marxist buddies to get the UN involved. At the point we see Blue UN helmets on our soil I will consider that a tipping point.

In most parts of America (outside of the blue northeast, CA, and DC), we are largely a 60/40 nation, meaning that even in the reddest parts of the country, beliefs are not monolithic as they once were. CWII, if fought, will look much different than CWI. If will be localized much more.

Easily. Make certain that access to cable is not interrupted and you better than halfway there!

It would be best if we could work out our problems through debate and at the ballot box

So, would you prefer guns? Be careful what you wish for.

Is this the full quote?

Here is the full quote as reported in the NY Times on November 7, 2008:

“You don’t ever want a crisis to go to waste; it’s an opportunity to do important things that you would otherwise avoid,” Mr. Emanuel said in an interview. “In 1974 and 1978 we never dealt with it, and our dependence on foreign oil never changed.”

Lol. I’m about the furthest thing you’ll ever find to a pacifist. I could go on, but I’m just going to leave it at that.

I find it odd that those who don't believe in a God who is just, do believe that the earth can attack those who don't worship Al Gores cult of global warming.

Bit of a logical disconnect.

>>This will only be tolerated for so long too if they do not stop.<<

Why should they stop? They are winning by leaps and bounds and they know it.

Moocher is a good way to define it.

Idoubt much of the remaining 53 have much clue they’re being raped. I hope that changes but I’m not holding my breath.
