I wish it were a good bet. I'm betting the looters out-number us
suckees, and Congress will remain in the hands of the scumbag
socialists.
1. The looters do not outnumber us. The question is "will we vote?"
1a. Americans, collectively, don't like this, know in their hearts
something is terribly wrong.
1b. Even looters don't want to see the government go broke.
Especially the looters. That kills their benefits.
2. The House is possible, the Senate probably not.
3. Nevada could do us all a favor and can Reid; Arizona needs to
retire McCain.
But, once elected can a new House fix this despite Obama? Or merely
fight him to a standstill? Probably the latter. But that's a start.
The first thing to do when you find yourself in a hole is ... stop
digging.
No need. Producers can always win if they have the will. They have
the ultimate recourse--they can stop producing.
...but we do have change. Believe it!
Even if every Demonicrat did (vote on Wednesdays), Franken would still be
in the Senate. Who needs voters when you have ACORN?
When the 401K first came out, I looked into it, and decided, "What kind ofYup, just rolled it up and took it to the bank.
Now if only my 401k statement will stop showing:
Contributions xxx.xx
Gains (xxxxx.xx)
I'd be doing a lot better.
The party in power wants to dismantle the Constitution, the crucial,
key, fruit of the American Revolution, the very wellspring of our
freedom, our Magna Carta, the People's guarantee. And they're doing
it, massively.
They're seizing people's property. They're seizing people's assets.
Last Thursday they came within 3 or 4 votes of effectively outlawing
speech by their political opponents.
Elena Kagan thinks Congress can order you to eat three fruits and
vegetables a day, constitutionally, under the Commerce clause.
It's only recently that I understood--by careful study--how good (and
timeless) a control system the Constitution was, the checks it keeps
on the natures and ambitions of men, and how far we've drifted from
it.
Hardly anyone gets that, as demonstrated by that congressman. Sworn
to uphold the Constitution, he has no idea what it even says. And he
doesn't care, he doesn't understand its importance, that the feedbacks
and safeties must not be ignored or the thing goes unstable and
rails. I can't say I was much different, but it wasn't my job.
I think it was miso@sushi who pointed out the National Security
Letters phenomenon as a Bush outrage. Okay, that's queasy. But Mr.
Hope and Change isn't backing down, he's expanding it.
Here's that link again about the White House wanting to give the FBI
unfettered access to your web surfing:

"The statute as written causes confusion and the potential for
unnecessary litigation," Justice Department spokesman Dean Boyd said.
"This clarification will not allow the government to obtain or collect
new categories of information, but it seeks to clarify what Congress
intended when the statute was amended in 1993."
i.e., Congress wrote a law in 1993 intending to track terrorists' web-
surfing? Puh-leeze. That's simply the Big Lie. So many other things
today are too.
All this talk about enemies and the need to intercept plots is
Orwellian, of a different era, and a big mistake. Such paranoid
drivel is what we once heard from despots behind the Iron Curtain--
always an emergency, always some outside threat to The People, always
justifying some new intrusion against them, or excusing some failure
of hope or change. I was there.
Bush threw the door open, and Mr. Obama's pouring through.
This is big stuff--we're not just being spent to China, we're losing
our republic.
Well, for instance, I only just appreciated the value and importance
of the Electoral College, and only because Massachusetts' end-run got
me thinking.
With it, the States keep each other in check. Without it, Boston
dictates to North Dakota, and Boston wins every time.
I saw this personally in Chile. Santiago (the capital city) receives
all the taxes, yet rules a 3,000-mile country. Santiago takes care of
itself--they get all the money. It's great, with roads, transport,
skyscrapers--all the modern conveniences. Farther away? Nope. The
farther you go, the worse it gets.
This can be fixed.
Example: Missouri voters overwhelmingly reject Obamacare--

We did this. More to come...stay tuned.
Meaningful? It's a tidal wave.
The propagandist's job is to make you think that. They're definitely
impressed. Terrified.
I read last week that 75%(!) of Americans believe their government is
governing against their interest. That is the stuff of revolutions.
Several states have had enough--at some point people will just start
ignoring Mr. O's laws. Missouri's at that point, Arizona's
essentially there, Texas, and several other states are close too.
Civil disobedience--MO's just approved it, with more to follow.
If we keep passing absurd laws that no one's read, no one's going to
follow them either.

Well, they're suicide Democrats. To re-find the article below I
Yahoo'd "poll americans government against". The list of hits was
amazing--2/3rds of America is against almost all the stuff Obama's
doing.
I didn't say we have a revolution, I said this is the stuff of
revolutions...

Friday, July 16, 2010
The notion that governments derive their only just authority from the
consent of the governed is a foundational principle of the American
experiment.
However, a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that
just 23% of voters nationwide believe the federal government today has
the consent of the governed. Sixty-two percent (62%) say it does not,
and 15% are not sure.
So now you're broke. Good thinking.
Not because I didn't play the stock market. ;-)
