Wow! Brilliant.
You have presented a whole new way to look at our situation. I can see how we've been using scatter shot and not getting anything done.
My suggestion for the "Lead Goose" is Nancy Pelosi. She has already shot her self in the foot with her pathological lying, so in that sense, she has helped us choose her to aim at.
I not only like your idea, I'm excited about it. I'm so "ready" to do something.......
Great post Noam. Keep up the good work.

Totally agree, Noam
I've been writing about this for a while now - that is, taking some notes from the successful democrat handbook and use the techniques ourselves - and Saul's teachings are a big part of their "handbook" and the methods are proven to work.
Like Bobbie, I'd choose Pelosi as the "Lead goose," she is particularily vunerable now and she will be a thorn in our side as long as she is Speaker.
Great piece and spot on. We DO need to coordinate our actions - let's hope that this is a start.

in their sights. I believe she is about to be "toast" due to them.
Therefore I should vote for Dingy Harry Read.
But as an engineer, I like to go to the source of the trouble. I would like to suggest George Soros. If we cut off a prime source of their money, we hurt all of them.
Good post and question, Noam.

Pelosy, Soros, ACORN
So many targets, so little time, so much ammo to use...
I personally despise Barney.
I like the idea of kicking Soros out of the country, the problem is that we can unmask him, but he stil has his money, he will stil fund Moveon.puke, and the likes.
Yeap, lets take Nancy out, follwed by Reed, followed by their future star, whoever he or she might be.

Outstanding post! This idea has been floated in various iterations here at TH before, but this is an incredibly effective presentation.
One of the problems leading to this state of disorganization is that there are too many organizations trying to define the battlefield. Immigration, abortion, finance/business, foreign policy, healthcare...and each with sub-organizations, all with their hands out. And the feckless GOP, unable to lead. While the Tea Parties were a great start, I saw this exact problem at the one I went to. Too many issues, no lead goose to shoot at, just some big, amorphous blob that can't be damaged very effectively.
I say Pelosi's done for all intents and purposes.
Soros must be next. Follow the money...

The targets have been their for YEARS, but ELECTED GOP folks have REFUSED to go after them for fear of being called mean/racist/homophobic and so forth. We need a GOPurge of these milquetoasts and Gutter Fighters to replace them. The Liberals have chosen a gutter fight, it is only good manners to give them the best one we can muster.

Now that's wut I'm tawkin about!
Great post, Noam! Looks like you're a hit with the TH bloggers. You have tremendous potential and we'll be looking forward to reading more of your stuff.
My nominee is.....The Red Nanny. She's vulnerable, limping along with a life threatening injury. She should be #1. Sure, the CIA might get the job done, but I think we should make sure of it and hasten the outcome.
The rest will follow as their weaknesses are revealed, but Dingy Harry should get strong attention for the #2 position.
Hats off to you!

Lead Goose Project
I shall never forget the quick, sick feeling I got in my stomach when I heard George W. Bush say shortly following his re-election as president that he had gathered a lot of political capital and was going to use it to reform Social Security. I knew instantly that he had chosen the wrong hill to die on and die on that hill he did. His numbers fell consistently and his second term served only to destroy what was left of the GOP and to make certain the election of B.H. Obama.
We must be careful in choosing our hill. Let's not decide to die on a hill we can't take or on one that after we take it, we will be destroyed instead. Soros us just such a hill. Too big to fail? Right now Soros is too big to defeat. I may be a somewhat lazy lion, but I kind of like picking out a weak or previosly wounded animal for my prey. The kill is easier and the meat is just as filling.
Many have already suggested Nancy and she certainly looks like the weakest of the strong right now and may be vulnerable to such a policital attack. But be careful.
There are many enemies out there and there are many more issues which must be blunted if not destroyed. Focusing on one goal is admirable and may lead to success but the success may come at the loss of the war while winning one small battle. Select your primary target. Gather your evidence. Develop a strategy and prepare a time schedule. In that way you can always add side-battles and impromptu fire-fights as they present themselves while continuing the main war.

I think the place to begin is with gathering accurate information. Every word collected must be carefully verified. The last thing you want is the other side being able to pick what we say apart making us look insignificant. Whatever is said must be rock solid. But gathering the "ammo" is the first step.

Congratulations, Noam
It seems your Lead Goose Project is bearing fruit.
Conservatives finally aimed all their guns at the Liberal lead turkey - ObamaCare, and it is falling fast. Now to keep shooting until that sucker is served on the end of a fork.

The Lead Goose if u r a conservative
Cause when liberals hunt, assuming they can shoot at all, they make deals with the lead goose then target the middle. Of course that's not a good baggin' strategy in huntin' or politickin'. Very good post!
