Only trouble, not all of us have that ability - we are the learners.

Thanks for your kind words.

I understand your valid point.

However, Virtually all of us have the capacity to do some of the following:

1. When standing in a WalMart line . . . if someone ahead or behind us makes a stupid liberal remark, we can graciously state a list of facts to refute it because we've been read up on FR.

2. If we see a headline on a Supermarket tabloid while waiting in line, we might comment to our partner in an informative way, loud enough for bystanders to overhear us. Often people will eavesdrop and accept things as true eavesdropping that they'd reject if said to them directly.

3. We can find a host of ways to be overheard in public in gracious, wise, thought provoking ways which will eat way at the liberal insanity some people walk around in a fog in.

4. We can write letters to the editor.

5. We can give handouts from FR to the liberals and moderates and conservatives in our personal work, social, shopping, church, club, sports networks--especially TODAY'S TOONS. Those toons are more persuasive than you think. The truth in them is hard to argue against--even for a lot of liberals.

6. We can call-in to talk radio and TV shows and insure that the conservative viewpoint is put graciously, wisely with great punch and potency.

7. Better, we can team up with a handful of other FREEPERS or other conservatives and relentlessly dial into talk radio to insure that the main points needed to be made on a topic get finished regardless of how quickly any one is cut off.

8. Those who are good speakers and well known in their communities can volunteer to speak to garden clubs etc. about the implications of liberal idiocy laws on their club's priorities, values and goals. For example, most garden clubs would be incensed about the imminent domain treason the Supreme Court has turned loose on the land.

9. We can spend at least a little time on other forums related to our hobbies and other interests. For me, that's UFO etc. sorts of forums. Many of them are flaming liberal forums. No need to worry about influencing the brain dead. However, many on such forums are unthinking liberals but are fairminded enough to think if given food for thought--especially THOUGHT BOMBS which niggle away at them and eventually explode with clarity and truth that jangles and jars them loose from their blind mindless liberalism.

More importantly, many such forums have maybe 200-1,000 lurkers. At least maybe 20-75% of those lurkers are likely to be liberals--many of them with some fairmindedness that makes them vulnerable to the truth well presented.

10. If some folks are timid about presenting verbal or written stuff of their own creation--there's plenty of material on FR that folks would be happy for you to use. And, folks, imagine, if you saw your freedoms taken away because you were too timid to speak up within your social network--and you realized only too late that your timidity, shyness, cowardice was a key cause--how would you feel then.

WE MUST STAND UP AND BE COUNTED WHILE WE CAN STILL STAND at all.

Great points and deserve a spot for "Actions for Freepers". I will be sending to my email list.

These sayings have been repeated so often they have become cliches - but there is still merit in thinking of them once in a while. -They show how the need for unity crosses all boundries of civilizations
