What happened...

I think this is what just happened. Nicely said by Andrew Klavan.

What We Must Do

At American Thinker, J. Robert Smith writes: The Great Political War Obama Never Expected. He ends with:
Liberty-loving Americans need to keep the fight up not just to November, but well past it. Victory comes to those who weather adversities and persevere.

American patriots propose not just to secure recently imperiled liberties, but to eventually restore the liberties lost to the statists over the last eight decades.Let us pray that God disposes well of the patriots' intentions.
Amen.

The Word for 2010

They might have made it the cheapest campaign advertising season ever. You don't need music, or action, or production or sound or even speech. All you need is this:

Belated Wishes

Sorry I didn't wish everyone a Merry Christmas....or even acknowledge the Holiday here. But I "did" Christmas this year. And I'm not exactly in practice for the "hostess" role.

The run up to the big day was a blur of hard work and hysteria. The housecleaning alone almost killed me. I live with attitude, guns, cats, drums & politics. The vacuum and I are not close.

It was all worth it in the end. I had a house full of people including my great-niece who is four months shy of 3-years-old.

She likes the drum set.

And she TALKS.

I'm just not sure what language it is, exactly.

And I don't remember ever hearing quite as high-pitched a scream before. Dogs gathered from miles around.

The rest of the family are adults. Some just barely—especially the ones over 60.

But everyone had a great time. And stuffed themselves.

ON FOOD I COOKED. Which in itself is amazing.

I even baked. I don't know what I was thinking.

But now that my house is empty, and some sanity restored; now that my cats are out from under the bed, and eating again....I'd like to wish you a belated Merry Christmas, and a just-in-time Happy New Year.

Let's make it a good one. Which can mean only one thing:

Throwing every asshole currently in Congress - OUT! We've got ten months!

Kisses,

The Dilemma

In a few days it will be 2010. The fateful year. The year when elections may matter the most they've every mattered in this country. If we don't turn out enough federal legislators to let them know that what they have done is unacceptable and intolerable, they will know that we will tolerate anything they choose to do to us, and there will be no stopping the destruction of everything America has stood for for over 200 years. The light of freedom will be extinguished not only for the American people, but for all people. We are still, barely, the last, best hope for freedom in the World.

It is our duty, our responsibility, our mission, our destiny to fight to the last man to keep it burning.

And I have a dilemma.

I am committed to work for the ousting of two Congresswomen and a Senator. Indeed, all my political focus will be on that task until the polls close next November.

But already there is an issue arising in the Tea Party/9.12 Project movement that I worry will derail our efforts. It is a conflict of visions, and they break down like this:



VISION NUMBER ONE:

1) We have to take our country back. We have to get ride of professional, career politicians, and get back to the "citizen representatives" envisioned by the founders, who return to private life after a few years of public service...and have to live with the laws they passed as legislators.

Obviously there is great wisdom in that. It keeps politicians rooted in self-interest, which translates into the citizens' interest.

Any candidate we offer must be reliably conservative/libertarian, loyal to the Constitution and responsible to the people, understanding he is our servant not our ruler. He should be funded and supported by The People, not rich special interests that he would "owe" once elected.

He must stay for a limited time, then return to private life.

He must be committed to limited government, individual liberty, the free market. He must be believe in American Exceptionalism, value our history, honor our traditions, love our country. He must be honest, truthful, sincere. He must be dedicated to the restoration of our Constitutional Republic.

The most important thing is principles, values and character!



VISION NUMBER TWO

2) We have to take our country back. And the way to do it is to turn as many incumbents out as possible. After what they have done, particularly in the last year, which is so outrageous, so unconstitutional, so tyrannical, so irresponsible, so corrupt, so un-American that we have to punish them. They have entirely shifted their loyalty from the American Dream, and the American Character to ideology, special interests, and to the accumulation of power. They are creating an Imperial State that will be the Master of "We the People", not our servant.

We have to make them more afraid of us than they are of SEIU and the other unions, of ACORN and other corrupt left wing organizations. And there is only one way to do that. We have to run enough of them out of town, out of power, out of their cushy, privileged sinecures that the rest will know that we can—and that we will. They will all know that there is a serious, People's movement that is not going away; that will not put up with their nonsense anymore; that there are millions of us; that we can affect elections; that we are watching; and that we will take them down.

And it doesn't matter at all who we replace them with in 2010. This is the moment when the Lesson is all that matters. The Lesson of The Peoples' Retribution! We need the most attractive, most well funded, most charismatic candidates we can find.

It doesn't matter how bad they are as legislators, we can take them out, too, when their time comes. Think of it this way:  It'll take them four years to figure out how things work, and we'll throw them out in two.

The effect of turning out as many CongressVipers as possible will be twofold:

a) It will scare the shit out of the surviving ones, especially if they've had a hard fight, or close election...they will see that when The People are pissed...they are formidable and determined...and ruthless.

b) It will scare the shit out of the FNGs (fuckin' new guys) who will be only too aware that incumbents' jobs are no longer safe, now that The People are watching.

We have to give the House and Senate a big, fat, hairy shock to the system! We have to hit them over the head with a 2 x 4 to get their attention.

The most important thing is electability!


Sure, we may get lucky and find a few candidates that are both...but most won't be.

Which strategy do we follow? Which will further OUR agenda? Which will better work to dismantle the Imperial State and restore our Constitutional Republic?

Is there a better Third Way?

The Only Thing Left to Do

We the People have made it clear that we don't want ØbamaCare.

We the People have made it clear that we don't want Crap & Tax.

We will nevertheless, in spite of our profound rejection of them, get both.

We will get them because the Progressive majority of Congressmen disdain We the People, consider themselves fit to be our rulers rather than our servants, and are determined to create a permanent Imperial State in which they retain all power and control, and to which we will be reduced to serfdom and slavery.

Starting right now, no matter what outrageous distractions pour out of this manipulating White House...we must focus like a laser beam on the task of cleaning the vipers out of Congress.

The 2010 elections may be the most important in our nation's history.

If the puffed up, incipient tyrants currently in Congress are allowed to ignore the will of The People without punishment, they will have learned that they can do anything they want, including treating the Constitution like an irrelevancy and an obstacle rather than the sacred law of the land...and they will.

We have to take them out. We have to punish them. We need to defeat as many of them as we can. We need to take OUR HOUSE back! And all of the bastards are up for election in 2010.

Their defeat needs to be the most pressing, most important, highest priority we have until the polls close on election night in November 2010.

No matter what else this Chicago thug and his posse try to do from the White House...if we can get our Congress back, they can roll back any outrage these criminals put into effect.

While I am going to continue to contact my (Progressive) representatives to object to every one of the expected ongoing outrages...I am going to keep my eye on the prize: 2010!

I hope the entire Liberty Community, all around the country does the same thing...if we work together, STARTING NOW, we can do it.

The stakes could not be higher. We will either prevail, and begin the long work of restoring our Constitutional Republic, or we will fail, and become serfs under the boot of the Imperial State.

Pass the word. Don't get distracted by any of the other nonsense coming out of Washington. That's their plan. If we are constantly running after all the shiny objects they toss out, we'll expend our energy on false trails.

We have ONE GOAL and ONE HOPE:  Elect a Congress that will stand against any furthering of Øbama's agenda, and repeal that part of it which has already passed.

Without a compliant Congress....Øbama will be rendered an ineffective, lame duck for the second half of his one and only term.

And I can't think of anything better for the future of America than that.

The Pledge

Ms. M says:  I think the campaign slogan for 2010 better be, "Upon election we are not going to Washington to pass laws, we are going to Washington to REPEAL LAWS."

Very Goldwater.

I'm for it. That's a good pledge to extract from any who want our votes.
