Yes, there is one job that Americans will not do. Will not ever do again. America has had its one and only American Revolution. The revolution in Ukraine got me to thinking.
Can anyone imagine Americans walking through the White House or the Capital and reclaiming it like just happened in Ukraine? Or even hanging around and waving patriotic banners into the early hours of a Monday morn? Nope; time to go to work. Had our million man march; done that, now back to like it never happened.
Americans mock the pusillanimous French, but they are anything but. They will rock the streets and burn the cars for their 30 hour work week. The Poles stood in front of Russian tanks. Ukrainians just died for their right to be free of the iron fist. Europeans have something Americans have lost. Perhaps Americans will find that lost zeal when there is nothing left to lose. Or perhaps we will just find ourselves like that frog in the ever warming vat; fat, over-bloated, and boiled.
So who is going to do the one job Americans won't do? Where will we find the weeks long warriors not just the weekend ones on the White House lawn? There aren't any Hessians hanging around Lowes or Home Depot, but there are Mexicans - lots of them - looking for work.
One of our Freepers, Craftmore, posted, "What could happen if we set up supply lines and had a million tea party people camped in Washington for months instead of hours,and sang The Star Spangeled Banner every hour?"
Mr. Craftmore, I've had very similar thoughts, but we all know tea party types have been vilified to lower than wetback status. Besides we got 9-5 jobs. But those guys hanging around Home Depot are today's cause celebre.
So let's round them up, pay them $50 a day, and bus them to Washington. Hell, it only costs $19.95 a month to adopt a wounded warrior! I'm sure a lot of us would adopt a wetback warrior to hold our signs. Rather than spend millions and millions of dollars on political campaigns and filling campaign war chests, let's set up tents along the Mall, feed them, and pay them. Hire Giulani Security to keep order while we put the signs in their hands and teach them "America the Beautiful". I can't think of a better use of the Koch Brothers money.
Is Pelosi going to jive-walk through a throng of Hispanics? Is John Lewis going to claim that he got spat on by Mexicans? The Stasi stenographer media might even find a few that can speak English. And there is no fear of them being deported en masse. Our media will protect them.
We don't need a Million Man March. Fifty thousand strong day after day after day after day will send the message ordinary Americans won't send. I figure it would cost a million dollars a day. Chump change in today's billion $ and more campaigns. Ah heck, let's pay them $100 a day so that we can't be accused of not paying the minimum wage. That's 2 million a day. Cheap.
Any Freeper moms out there want to arrange a car pool and drop off to Washington D.C. ?
Still up to your other old tricks. You have no rational response to a post so you go into attack mode. I thought I did a creditable job, considering I’m on either my tablet or smartphone, not my ‘puter-thingy. But, no, don’t respond to the CONTENT of the post, ansel. That would require you to do either a Biden or an obummer and try to defend the indefensible.
Just exactly where IS the authority granted for ANY form of prohibition, ansel? Please read the 10th Amendment, then point it out to me. Bearing in mind, ALCOHOL prohibition took an actual AMENDMENT to achieve. (Oh, also try reading the NINTH Amendment as well...)
Good luck, ansel. You’ll need it.
Who are you and why are you carrying some old grudge around?
You act like I’m supposed to know something about you and care, are you some kind of stalker that just popped up?
Your ramblings are incomprehensible, I don’t even know what you are rambling about.
I merely responded to your out-and-out lie that libertarians are of the (total government) Left. Which is a lie you espouse often and I refute it whenever I notice it. Of course, I have yet to see a response, whether to me or others who correct the lies you are so well known for, that is not an attack on the poster.
Since you can have no response that doesn’t show you up as the big government statist you are, you engage in personal attacks. The only reason I still respond when I run across your drivel, is in hopes it will save some other person the heartache of traveling the same dead-end road YOU’RE out of control on.
But you used the word “stalking.” You can bet the ranch I would not KNOWINGLY go within 10 country miles of you. That you had brought your stench and lies to this thread did not come to my attention until I saw (once again) your lies, out there for all the world to see and mock. I thought that perhaps some rationality might sort of seep into your consciousness and you could engage in rational discourse for a bit, thus concealing your shame. I was mistaken, apparently. My bad. I’ll try not to make that mistake again, though, even as I’ll not seek you out anywhere, as your words are a stench in my nostrils. I do reserve the right to correct you, should I run across you again (sort of like trying to clean up a particularly nasty bit of roadkill!).
Good day to you, ansel.
Who knows what you are raging and rambling about, I looked at my two posts on this thread, a total of three sentences, and the one sentence response to me, and can’t find how your wild, angry, name calling, lengthy ramblings, make any sense.
Weird stuff.
I’m sure you want to believe that. But notice the total and complete lack of anger in all of my posts to you. That’s because you’re not worth getting upset over. I only involve emotions on those worthy of them. Nor do I call you names. I name what you DO, which is my right and duty; I say you tell lies and fabricate things on an AWESOME scale, I do not call you, for example, the Prince of Liars. I aim at your bad behaviors, not yourself. I find that what you do (lie) is loathesome and contemptible. I have no desire to learn whether you match your deeds.

Apologies for the hiccup. My internet service is being weird tonight.
I wish I knew what you are raving about on this weeks old thread that I barely got on, but man, you are one angry guy.
