HORRENDOUSLY SKEWED AND BIAS REPORTING ON REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES IS NO LONGER NEWS.

The question is when are Republicans going to start chaining thenselves to the doors of the NYT, CBS,NBC et. al.

ANSWER: Not in this lifetime.

SUGGESTIONS: Get over it, or do something about it. Turn off those networks, completely. Sports, news, all programming. Organize rowdy boycotts in front of their sponsors headquarters. Make trouble for them. Don't buy the sponsors products and tell the grocewry store Regional VP why you're doing it. Do what Michael Moore did and video ambush the CEO's about why they gave 20:1 money to the DEMS. Put it on youtube.

CHANCES OF THAT HAPPENING: 0-5% "Gee, I have to watch the playoffs" or "The SuperBowl is on NBC" , " But I've a;ways shopped at XYZ store" Yeah there are a million excuses. Feel free to use them all but don't expect change to occur without pressure. Republicans don't have the guts to even give up their programming, shopping, you name it..They have raised bitching about it to an art form though.

So ,just get over it, it's definitely NOT NEWS.


I have gotten to the point where I must admit to myself that the Democratc Socialist come to the fight with guns and the Republicans come with Points of Order, and that if you want to win you'd better bring a gun.

CHANCES OF THAT HAPPENING: 0%


Why is it this way? Because most all of the House and Senate are totally set for life, so if they lose a vote, so what.

Jappy,

Thank you for reading what I write.

Here we are twelve days before the election and NO ONE in our government has forced Obama to produce a valid birth certificate. That is amazing.

The politicians know that if they disqualify him now the cities of this country will go up in flames and a huge race war will ensue, so they would rather use the US Constitution as the torch that will burn the shortest period of time and produce the least heat and light. Obviously this is so myopic a view as to ignite open rebellion and I am all for that, for if they can do that with such ease they can do anything with equal ease.

Once the election occurs who will overturn it should it be discovered he is a Kenyan, without an even larger conflagration? We, as the colonials use to say, are stuck between buzzard and hawk. And simply as an obvious aside he has enough money to run out the clock no matter who might intervene.

We could indeed win this election but it will be by the grace of God, not by the laws we have that have proved so malleable, and so unenforced, as to be worthless, and too easily replace by venal men whose lives should be in severe jeopardy for the violence they do to the Republic and her laws.

No Jappy we must use the same tactics our enemies used on us. I say enemies because there can be know knowledgeable person who can say they are not anti American Marxists. Boycott the networks and call or write the sponsors. There is no better time, for the economic crisis is already hurting them and a gentle push could topple them. There is no reason to hold back for Obama’s hall of mirrors tax proposals are coming straight from your paycheck and going into some illiterate non productive useless person. Harass, switch parties and go to their meeting and raise hell. Agitate, agitate, and agitate.

Or allow the Republic and the Constitution to become meaningless.

Meta,
Great point. I can also remember when Bill Clinton fired all the US Attorneys and the press was mildly disturbed.

As I said it's time for an organization to be formed with the aid of a Republican bebefactor to cause a ruckus, make some trouble for the sponsors of shoews on TV.

OK so Alinsky's model worked to perfection (so far) there is no reason we can't used the same guidelines.

Our "organization use to be the GOP. Now we need tougher men and woman from the LLL ( seee that's one letter more baad ass in the alphabet than KKK and it could stand fo LAST LINE of LIBERTY, and action group in every city to make life a livinh hell for the Democrats and their money people. 16 and 17 year olds are perfect since they are not adults say if you wanted to creme pie NARAL spokesperson just to pick a left organization.

MM,

I agree. We must get the organization set up by someone who is an organizer. The best I ever saw was Lee Atwood. Bush I's campaign manager. He took no prisoners. I'm not sure we have a firebrand in the party that can organize a sit down, chained to the door of the NYT type affair. Or go to a Democratic press conference, yell from the back of the room, or even less unfurl a sign. It’s pitiful. In this election Republicans are so afraid they won’t even put a McCain/Palin sticker on their car or in their yard.

Heck I'm not sure the entire party leadership has any guts at all. An activist Republican Party is an oxymoron. Would anybody in the party today have the guts of a Barry Goldwater who called it right when he said:

“I would remind you that extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice! And let me remind you also that moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue.”

Well we are, or I am with a few trying to defend liberty. It can not be said often enough that almost without exception every great philosopher recognized that governments can and usually do turn against the freedoms of the people. We are about to get a face full of laws constricting our God given freedoms.

But a benefactor is absolutely necessary. We need someone to counter the George Soros' on the left. We need someone like Newt Gingrich who knows history and organization to get involved but so far he has shown no guts for a ruckus. He appears to enjoy lecturing which might get the job done in twenty or thirty years, if ever.

But most of all we need the energy of youth, which as youth tends to do is following a trend, the Obama Big Rock Candy Mountain.

Phil you put you finger on the problem.

"Gonna take some brave souls."

Our side has plenty except at the leadership positions.

Former military men have been indoctrinated to obey. And that's what 99.9% will do. It matters not that there are now identifiable domestic enemies; they are not focused to initiate conflict within the US even though the Posse Commitatus Act was suspended within the enactment of the Patriot Act, which may be turbed on us.

Thucydides wrote in his one book, History of the Peloponnesian War, what we are facing:

"The strong do what they can and the weak suffer what they must"

Thus may be our fate unless we summond the courage to change the paradigm.
