What federalist and anti-federalist alike feared most, was consolidated government, all power in the hands of a single central government. It is what we've had for a hundred years.

Elect whomever every two years and it won't matter, because power will still be shared among the uniparty in DC.

There is little time to exercise peaceful means to re-federalize government and just maybe restore our freedoms.

Ask the US military or retired military if the current crop of GOP traitors are worth it.

Without the capable cave-in expertise of McConnell and Boehner, the successful fundamental transformation of America into a weak, financially devastated, morally corrupt, unreliable, former World Power would not have been possible.

Exactly! Thankfully many Freepers are waking to this reality.

Truth is the Progressives are ruthless and unrelenting while conservatives are reactionary's that flare up then wither away as the Progressives say they are sorry, then quickly redirect their efforts.

I keep hearing that 92 million Americans have left the work force, yet the unemployment rate is less than 7%. According to The World Band Data we have a work force 158,686,472, that would seem more like 50% unemployment to me.

Labor Force, Total
Total labor force comprises people ages 15 and older who meet the International Labour Organization definition of the economically active population: all people who supply labor for the production of goods and services during a specified period. It includes both the employed and the unemployed. While national practices vary in the treatment of such groups as the armed forces and seasonal or part-time workers, in general the labor force includes the armed forces, the unemployed, and first-time job-seekers, but excludes homemakers and other unpaid caregivers and workers in the informal sector.

The Uniparty can’t fool good Freepers.

Time for a new party! Time for Liberty Party! The right needs to focus on a few good people and more as one.

How about Chrispie?

He knows how to fight Dems

He closed that bridge and stuck them in traffic.

And he's a great deal by the pound.

They have the same bosses, they’re the same.

It’s going to take a miracle to right the ship.

“Resistance is futile.”

We’ve already been assimilated. How popular is it to talk about elections and how they usually change nothing? I don’t expect to hear that on sean hannity anytime soon.

Want a way to get people angry at you? Get into a conversation where politics is being discussed and suggest to those present that their vote is pretty much meaningless, and they’d be better off spending their time organizing their sock drawer.

And watch the fur fly.

“Good point for people who protest by sitting out elections.”

And how does participating in an election change anything, given that the uniparty controls ballot access, decides who may vote, decrees what the electoral procedures are, and then counts all the votes?

Looks like Gov. Henry WAS right.

I suppose the argument could be made that the Union would have been better off without Virginia. In that sense, maybe you’re right.

Yeah, I think the republic would have been much happier without us pesky Virginians. The rest of the states could have had their monarchy with nary a whisper of protest, and we’d sell them their whiskey and peanuts.

Convincing you not to vote is a useful part of controling ballot access.

Patrick Henry didn't want to join the constitutional Union.

He also had high praise for the British monarchy.
