The only way to defeat these people will be through the family. Every day, ask your children what it was that they learned in school that day, and you will be shocked to learn how much the schools have become indoctrination camps. The solution is easy though. Children are inherently curious, and once you point out one aspect of any “political” issue where the teaching establishment is wrong, your youngsters will start looking for more. Help them along. Soon they will be arguing with their teachers and exposing their friends to ideas unheard of to many. No house of cards can last forever. Expect Obama to move against home schooling very quickly, but even he cannot remove the children from the kitchen table.

For the first time in a Pew Research survey, nearly as many people believe it is more important to protect the right of Americans to own guns (45%) than to control gun ownership (49%). As recently as a year ago, 58% said it was more important to control gun ownership while 37% said it was more important to protect the right to own guns.

The latest national survey by the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press, conducted March 31-April 21 among 1,521 adults reached on landlines and cell phones, also finds public opinion about abortion more closely divided than it has been in several years. Currently, 46% say abortion should be legal in most cases (28%) or all cases (18%); 44% believe that abortion should be illegal in most (28%) or all cases (16%). Since the mid-1990s, majorities have consistently favored legal abortion, with the exception of an August 2001 survey by ABC News/Washington Post.
The proportion saying that abortion should be legal in all or most cases has declined to 46% from 54% last August.

“We’ve only just begun”. Hopefully, but I worry that congress still hasn’t gotten the message nor has this administration. On President Obama’s 100th day town hall meeting there were protesters outside as if it was a tea party; inside he ridiculed those waving tea bags. Good for those outside; we need that every time he speaks. And those in congress who are spending our country into financial ruination, we can find out who easily via web sites, well, they need to have their local offices picketed in the manner that MLK showed was so effective with sit-ins if necessary.

Our elected officials act as if they are our betters. Note that TARP had some 70% of those polled against what has now reportedly become a criminal enterprise for many recipients, yet it passed and other such bailouts have been approved. It is not only that we have just begun, it is time we took direct action.

We see the reports that the increased spending is continuing, therefore we can not wait 18 month until the next election to take direct action. Who will join me in pressuring the 912ers, the Nationwide Tea Party Coalition, the Campaign for Liberty and other grass roots organizations to begin this direct action campaign to pick up where the tea parties left off. I have proposed this at such meetings, but I seemly remain a lone voice in the wilderness as I have been for the past 40 years when writing to public officials and more recently commenting and blogging on these horrible public spending policies. So be it, but this old guy will do this on his own if no one else is willing.

The Greatest Generation saved our nation from fascism, therefore we owe future generations a serious effort to return to the economic and personal freedom they fought so bravely to retain.

we better take back our country before bambi puts everyone on the federal dole, because it is the “takers” who will fight us in the streets, not the cowards in washington.

Because they know that their power, built HOPE and CHANGE is nothing more than sand, and when the tide comes in, they’ll be swept away.

There is fear in their eyes because deep down, they know they’ll screw it all up.
