Last spring I heard the NRA spokesman (not Lapierre but his chief lieutenant) make the case for their ‘non-partisan’ endorsements on Tom Gresham’s Gun Talk Radio show.

Basically their position is that if they endorse the straight-line Republican ticket they lose any possible influence with the Dems.

The guy more or less hinted that they had supported Dingy Harry ‘cause they figured he was going to win anyway and sucking up to him was a better bet than p!ssing him off.

They took calls and the callers, like all of us, were majorly annoyed but the guy kept making his point that in some conservative Democrat states it was best to keep your options open.

The problem here is that Tester is a clown and a joke and the day after the election he’ll be voting with Harry Reid again.

Here we go again. This decision should be easy because the control of the Senate has national implications. But the NRA never fails to disappoint when liberty is at stake.

So what should we do if Obama is re-elected? I don’t think this country will ever recover, we will probably descend into a global depression with civil unrest and violence. Zero will rule much like a dictator via executive decree. He will happily pass decrees that criminalize businesses so that he can plunder the wealth of small business owners who also happen to be his archtypal enemies. The best option might be to leave. Other options could be secession or revolution.
I don’t like those guys either, but zero is an existential threat to myself and family. So if for example I must choose between romney or joining a militia to fight against the tyrant obama, I will choose romney. And if you say their is no difference between someone like romney or zero, you should be making plans to leave the US or fight against the government.

What will I do if Obama is reelected? I will think that the conservatives FAILED again. They managed to screw it up last round and if they don’t nominate Cain, Santorum or Bachmann than they screwed up again. That is the bottom line. If they want to nominate a liberal Republican like Romney, Perry, or Newt than they best have enough RINOs to elect them.

I know what you will think, but what will you do? A second zero term has dire consequences. There may be only a small window to leave the country, stock up on ammo, or to take your money out of the bank.
Leaving the anti-obama coalition does require thinking about a second zero term and making decisions to protect yourself and your family.
