Knock knock, Neo.
I smell a landslide that will send the rats scurrying.
I agree that the left and the MSM set the time, place, agenda and even terminology of the discussion. That keeps conservatives constantly on the defensive. Gigrich seems to have noticed and has reacted in a limited way. The first thing they should do is refuse to debate on the lefts’ terms in the the lefts’ forums, like CNN and ABC.
I am so flustered right now that the Lame Stream Media continues with this fake contraception argument when it was about religious freedoms and the Constitution.
I want them to debate them but don’t let them set the terms or false narrative.
This is a great rant.
Valid, too.
Nice guys don’t finish last. Nice guys don’t finish period.

If you wish to fight back, you must first acquire the tools to do the job, or create new tools that have yet to be used.
First, significant outlets for the media must be purchased or created which are owned by people who are conservatives/Constitutionalists/originalists. Without that, there will be a constant disadvantage.
Once there is an outlet for Conservatives that is a prevalent, it will promote the willingness to appear on that media to express objections.
There needs to be Conservative news, conservative documentaries, and conservative programming to compete.
Educators must be hired that are conservative.
Politicians have to be ready to lose for the sake of expressing conservative ideas.
Law enforcement and Congress need to enforce laws that preserve the integrity of the system.
States need to establish systems that guarantee the correctness and accuracy of the vote, with prosecutions for fraud.
Finally, there need to be incentives given to entrepreneurs that laud their achievements and hold them up as moral, honest and helpful human beings.
But none of this is possible until people stop expecting society to do things for them, that they choose not to do themselves.
The system must crash before it can be rebuilt.
Without being racist and being compassionate of feelings at the same time of course. /MS
You mean like GBTV?
You ever seen the ration of sh*t so called conservatives around here give the man who made exactly what you have described?
Conservatives can’t get out of their own way. Our team and our fans make the Bad News Bears look like liek the New York Yankees FFS.
It isn’t just the candidates that need to learn to fight. We need to take this anger to the enemy. We can start on the high road, but when they take the fight down into the mud, come prepared to get dirty. Stay on offense, always. Newt may not be the best candidate, but he’s the only one willing to call a spade a spade and fight the leftist media on their own terms.
Just fighting back on their own turf not only gets the point across but it makes the Libs look like the idiots they are.
Which media isn’t main stream?
I totally agree with you. We who support a candidate should not let the press dictate our fears. We do not have a perfect candidate in anyone nor will we ever have one. What we need is someone who is courageous and kicks the butts off the press and anyone else who is harming this country and we need to support them warts and all. I sat here and watched what the press did to Sarah. Then to Cain, then Perry, then Newt. Now Santorum. I say stand our ground and be proud. The press is going to make it up if it is not already there. Screw the press. We will trounce the other side because they keep screwing themselves with their own policies and because we have far better candidates than the other side. Whether it is Newt or Santorum, I am in all the way and I do not intend to be biting my nails with every news story. I will defend our guys and carry them across the finish line over broken glass if need be.
The MSM is such hypocritical BS liars!
HEY! It’s lunch time! IT’S FREE! I’ll get back to you.
Apropos of nothing
There was a Chemistry professor in a large college that had some exchange students in the class. One day while the class was in the lab the Prof noticed one young man (exchange student) who kept rubbing his back and stretching as if his back hurt.
The professor asked the young man what was the matter. The student told him he had a bullet lodged in his back. He had been shot while fighting communists in his native country who were trying to overthrow his country’s government and install a new communist government.
In the midst of his story he looked at the professor and asked a strange question. He asked, ‘Do you know how to catch wild pigs?’
The professor thought it was a joke and asked for the punch line.
The young man said this was no joke. “You catch wild pigs by finding a suitable place in the woods and putting corn on the ground. The pigs find it and begin to come everyday to eat the free corn. When they are used to coming every day, you put a fence down one side of the place where they are used to coming. When they get used to the fence, they begin to eat the corn again and you put up another side of the fence.
They get used to that and start to eat, again you continue until you have all four sides of the fence up with a gate in the last side. The pigs, who are used to the free corn, start to come through the gate to eat, you slam the gate on them and catch the whole herd.
Suddenly the wild pigs have lost their freedom. They run around and around inside the fence, but they are caught. Soon they go back to eating the free corn. They are so used to it that they have forgotten how to forage in the woods for themselves, so they accept their captivity.
The young man then told the professor that is exactly what he sees happening to America. The government keeps pushing us toward Communism/Socialism and keeps spreading the free corn out in the form of programs such supplemental income, tax credit for unearned income, tobacco subsidies, dairy subsidies, payments not to plant crops (CRP), welfare, medicine drugs, etc. while we continually lose our freedoms just a little at a time.
