I completely agree. However, if this communism is not stopped on a national scale it's likely that conservatives will migrate to the states that are the strongest in asserting their rights.
“Apathy must end...”
As soon as we get around to it.
But now, just as the Kansas-Nebraska Act broke through the geographic limit to slave states, the Democratic partys 2010 health-care law has broken the boundary that limited socialism. Now, the chains of socialism are to be clamped onto the able-bodied middle class not merely retirees who have paid their insurance premiums and the presumed-helpless poor.
....
And just as the free states could not tolerate the spread of slavery into their midst, so, too, free middle-class America if it still has its historic character will not tolerate the yoke of socialism being put upon their necks.
MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNIST CONGRESSIONAL PROGRESSIVE CAUCUS, INCLUDING MILLER, WAXMAN, LEWIS, WATT, PELOSI, SLAUGHTER, FRANK, AND CONYERS HAVE NATIONALIZED THE MEDICAL INSURANCE INDUSTRY, AND ARE NOW LAUNCHING A CAMPAIGN OF INTIMIDATION AGAINST ALL WHO DISSENT AND INTEND TO DESTROY THE ELECTORAL PROCESS BY GRANTING AMNESTY TO AND ENFRANCHISING MILLIONS OF ILLEGAL ALIENS
The following members of Congress are Marxists and terrorist coddlers who have rebranded themselves as Progressives in an attempt to hide their agenda
Nancy Pelosi was one of the original members of the Congressional Progressive Caucus and only left when she was named Minority Leader.
Pelosi is now Speaker of the House and 2 heartbeats away from President of the United States.
All members are members of the Democratic Party or caucus with the Democratic Party. There are currently 82 total declared Progressives including 79 voting Representatives, 2 non-voting Delegates, and 1 Senator.

The Congressional Progressive Caucus (CPC) was established in 1991 by five members of the United States House of Representatives: Representatives Ron Dellums (D-CA), Lane Evans (D-IL), Peter DeFazio (D-OR), Maxine Waters (D-CA), and Bernie Sanders (I-VT). Then-Representative Bernie Sanders was the convener and first. The founding members were concerned about the economic hardship imposed by the deepening recession, the growing inequality brought about by the timidity of the Democratic Party response at the time.
Additional House representatives joined soon, including Major Owens (D-NY), Nydia Velazquez (D-NY), David Bonior (D-MI), Bob Filner (D-CA), Barney Frank (D-MA), Maurice Hinchey (D-NY), Jim McDermott (D-WA), Jerrold Nadler (D-NY), Patsy Mink (D-HI), George Miller (D-CA), Pete Stark (D-CA), John Olver (D-MA), Lynn Woolsey (D-CA), and Nancy Pelosi (D-CA).
The CPC (Congressional Progressive Caucus) must be exposed as the cadre of socialist crook sex pervert baby killing trial lawyer hugging unAmerican scumbags that they are.
Its absolutely ludicrous that these red sons of bitches are operating above ground and in our faces without fear of any consequences.
The destruction of the communist Congressional Progressive Caucus as an above ground legitimate organization is the top priority
Its members and supporters (ESPECIALLY THE PRESS) need to be exposed as red communist sons of bitches that they are, prosecuted and imprisoned where evidence of criminality is uncovered, and the organization itself driven back underground like in the 50s, when American communists met in secret to plot their government takeover, not changed their names to Progressives and did it in our faces in broad daylight.
THESE RED BASTARDS ARE CONSPIRING WITH INTERNATIONAL COMMUNISTS TO CRIPPLE THE AMERICAN ECONOMY AND WEAKEN ITS MILITARY CAPACITY AND MUST BE BROUGHT TO JUSTICE AND IMPRISONED.
