It Stinks On Ice!

They are reelected....

....because We are so far removed from who Our Founders believed should be eligible to vote.

Seriously,

We''ve gone from property owners to: teenagers (living with parents and have never had money taken from them and given to another), "homeless" people (have no vested interest in the future or prosperity of the Nation), women (well, that's another post topic).....

Jimmy!!`

Good to see you around these parts pard.

We're dangerously close to a tipping point in this country. Once the half that doesn't pay any taxes begins to demand more and more of the the less than half that do pay them, we're in deep Bessie droppings! And it'll be all the more aggravating because it will prove Brian's gloomy assessment correct.

I don't think it's implausible to expect everyone that receives the benefits of this great country to chip in SOMETHING in return for all of the benefits they receive.

Nobody votes....

...to stop "their" government check from coming in the mail.

Secession!

When the dumbest, redneck, good old boy in Mississippi can answer the questions that 90% of the Obama supporters can't, then perhaps it is time to go our separate ways.

The next few years will be "Shining Times" here in the USA. Will the O'Vomitites get "buyers' remorse"? Will a bullet-proof Libturd Congress emerge from the stealing of the election? Will O'Vomit and Joe Bide-Your-Time toss the Constitution out the window? Will Mrs. Gray Ghost allow Gray Ghost to buy an AK47 in .223?

Stay tuned to this country for more exciting episodes in "O'Vomit and the Taking of America". Brought to you by the same idiots who gave us the welfare state.

(BTW, watch an exciting new article at Gray Ghost Country on what a Mississippian is like. Catch phrases, like "Oh Sh*T", abound in the video referenced.)

don't forget Barney Frank

sheesh. some states.

Hey JimmyC

my blood boiled when I heard Dodd say that the bailout was what our Founders would've wanted!

Scottie

Good post. My take on it is the thought EVERYONE ELSES' congcritter is a crook except MINE. Therein lies your problem. Once people see that the majority of the 'hats are there SOLELY for their own benefit,and NOTHING else,will we see a major change.Nice thing about being here in the PRoAA is NO REPUBLICANS run.The GOP long abandoned this area. The Republican caucus room at City Hall was turned into a breast-feeding room. Since I don't vote for incumbents,it is easy to vote against them.

I'm not sure seccession is preferable to outright revolution with the aim of taking our country back.

"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants."

Scarlet Pimpernell

Barney Frank, the chief protector of the source of the fiasco, ran on a platform that the other guys did it and his good offices were needed to rescue the country. Maginificent Chutzpah!

Clyde

Do what you can, keep a well stocked ammo store, and well lubricated arms at the ready. What more is left for you? Of course you could move to a red state as a viable alternative.

It was said back in the days

of Huey P. Long....he may be a crook, but he's OUR crook and an Honest crook!

Scarlet....

....I remember a story about a fire burning many homes back in the day (18th century) and the people asking the founders for federal money...and they absolutely refused stated it wasn't a government's responsibility to insure Citizens.

"Unpaid federal government debt is Generational Tyranny." Thomas Jefferson (or something close to that)

Scottie

I sure can't explain it. We may have already reached that tipping point. People are scared and their fear is leading us to a totalitarian state.

I am not convinced that if we had to try and form a union today, as they did 1776, we would successful. A Russian analyst is predicting the breakup of the U.S. into 6 separate regions. Washington is not going to let that happen, not peacefully anyway.

Have we just elected the next Lincoln or the next Mussolini? He sure ain't Ronald Reagan!

Gerrymandering

Representatives are returned each year because gerrymandering guarantees 90% safe districts.

Secondly, (I've asked this question already today, but it seems appropriate here also), is democratic behavior behavior which democracies like, or behavior which preserves democracies? The two are not the same. And our corrupt politicians may one day find that out--to the detriment of their constituents.

P.S.

The question concerning democratic behavior is from Aristotle. I came by it by way of C.S. Lewis.

Scott-tay

Hey! Where ya been hiding? Got a Chicago Tea Party AAR up!! PS You might want to stop by and see Pepp. She lost her son.

Scottie,

how's everything going, brother?

Scottie

Isn't it about time for a good post? :) We haven't seen hide nor hare of ya, man...Hope all is well where you are.

FREE SCOTTIE!

from whatever gulag you evil Obamans have him trapped in!

Scottie

Was that you I saw on the milk cartons? Everything OK in your world,I trust?
