“This is what Democracy looks like.”


We ain't a democracy you ignorant sack of manure. We are a representative republic and Tom McClintock, a good guy, is our elected representative. If you are telling us that we can't have a town hall with our congressman than some hell may soon be paid.

Yep, we might have to start taking baseball bats and shotguns to defend our own exercise of speech.

It’s apparent our governor and just-us department will do nothing to protect us from assault and injury.

The Democrat Party is astroturfing... confident the media will portray their goons as “grassroots”.
Already seen some in media comparing this to the Tea Party protests.

I love McClintock. He’s a lone reed, sadly.

Lindsey Graham would get the same sort of reception if he dared to return to Seneca, South Carolina. But, it would be Republicans rather than Democrats, who have a big problem with him.

Arnold Schwarzenegger stole the California Governor recall from McClintock.

The French Reign 0f terror was pure democracy, and fortunately, it occurred soon enough to scare the bejeesus out of the Founders, resulting in our Bill of Rights, without which our Constitutional, Representative Democracy, with its safeguards and balance of powers would not exist.

And that unchangeable balance of powers is what made us the envy of the Free world.

Unfortunately, the privilege of citizenship and the vote has been perverted to an animalistic level that requires only a pulse to qualify.

Unless that implied level of civic competence is restored, our inevitable fate is another national bloodbath.

Our nation can't exist much longer being ruled by the literal morons inhabiting the lower 20% of the intelligence curve. Ditto the knowledge cure. Neither of which require, if all human beings are indeed equal, anything more than a sense of morals and ethics, combined with the determination to be actually independent and determined to work to join the body of the Social Contract, and willing to work.

Socialism and Freedom do have one thing in common...
The reality that if you don't work, you die.
