[High Praise! to The Last Refuge]

This… this task… this charge… is no small thing. The Charge to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. Many have studied history and argue if a restoration has ever happened. They, those of lesser consequence, pontificate of Rome and our Constitution in the same breath and manner.
As if such considerations would diminish the resolve of a patriot… Those of smaller courage fear our task is impossible. If we do not strive – how will we know it can’t be done? And if we do not endeavor, it most certainly won’t be done.
And We Have Grit…
The Founders’ Republic, your Republic, and, in a larger sense, the beacon light for the greatest of all free western civilizations, will not be lost… The Charge Is Ours.
This day.
I swear you this: We will not go gently into this bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, the expansion of rage within our defiance creates the Thunder-clap; And ALL history from this day forward will be forced to note and witness, even if they despise us in the writing of it.

No, it won’t be over until NObama grants 20,000,000+ illegal alliens citizenship before the 2014 elections. They, of course, will ALL vote Demon-RAT to show their thanks from then on.
Overnight, there will not be another red state in this country.
THEN, it will be over…
Has anyone else noticed how many postings there are from Hollywood libs, etc. calling for us all to “come together” now that the election is over and drop the “partisan bickering”? In other words, since they won and everything went their way, they now want us to shut up and fall in line behind The One. However, I don’t remember that happening after George W won his second term. In fact, I seem to remember libs comparing him to Hitler for most of his second term. Funny how that works when they win an election…
Somehow, I just feel like I want to go hide in the Statue of Liberty for the next 4 years….and then come out when she stands for something again.
And it will be done when Obama gets to nominate 2-3 Supreme Court justices. At least we will be able to go to the National Archives and *look* at the Constitution…
Anyone have a good recipe for liberals? The gamey taste is awful.
Perhaps we should practice lawfare until then.
If they can argue that people are too dumb to get a voter ID, can a lawsuit be filed stating that lax voter identification desinfranchizes real voters?
Can we file a citizen lawsuit against the ‘poll watching’ black panthers?
Other than that, we need to block anything he tries to use congress for. I don’t care if we need senators to filibuster a ‘reduced bus fares for war widows’ bill, it should be done.
What Son of Bob said. Let’s call Romney a tw*t, a felon, and say he has magical carcinogen powers and wields them on unsuspecting spouses of workers and THEN say we just want to get along. Sort of like accusing the Right of politicizing Libya and then covering up an attack on a U.S. drone until after the election.
I know that the Americans didn’t give up when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor but seriously, how are we supposed to stop Obamacare now? Give me a glimmer of hope there and I’ll come around. Until then, I just want to punch all Obama voters in the face. My husband will be home soon, so that’s probably not good for him.
Folks, for your own sanity, it’s time to come to grips with the fact that the country’s over. More than half have decided that they can get “free” stuff by whining, and enough officeholders — elected and otherwise — are going along with it. Playing games with taxes, laws, protests, lawsuits, boycotts, protests, whatever… it won’t do any good.
If you want your country back, you’ll have to find a patch of land and a bunch of friends, and start killing people who disagree with you.
That’s how it’s done.
@Karen, et.al….
This may be beyond the currently willful state of denial extant in this room, but…as I have repeatedly, and emphatically, said in other threads:
1) The current state of affairs, post-Nov. 6th, is one of post-constitutionality. This means selective respecting of laws up and down the legal system. A general, underlying, state of anarchy otherwise existing.
2) The above being the stated condition in this country…the question begged is: who, with in the judicial system, would grant status to such a lawsuit? “Lawfare” presumes a, currently non-existent, respecting of the foundational concepts of the American judicial system. (Keep in mind the decades of seating of “activist judges” up and down the line, concommitant with a thoroughly impotent SCOTUS.)
3) Congress is cedeing the argument ahead of the debate-being “only one-half of one third of the branches of government” according to Boehner-and therefore should not be considered a bastion or last ditch.
Once this is accepted, those of us who refuse to fall to our knees in fealty to Obama, preferring to get red of fang and claw in opposition, will be in a better position to address those who seek to lead the downfall.
Let’s deal with that, shall we?
Right. So what kind of gun(s) should I get? Firearms scare the crap out of me but not as much as some mo fo coming to take my home or get between me and my children. One hand gun and one ‘say hello to my little frien” rifle?
@CtM
You should get either a Henry Rifle in .45 cal, or Winchester Model 94 30-30 for a long gun, and Smith & Wesson Model 1917 revolver chambered in .45 cal. That or a Colt M1911 .45.
Those are definite manstoppers. If you’re comfortable with shotgun, get a Mossberg pump and alternate rounds with buckshot and flechette shells.
Must write this down. Thank you, Bunkerhillbilly.
Dylan Thomas & who?
However, fine sentiment; I approve.
It’s NOT over, & while some (most/many) may bemoan the consequences of this election, we retain our relative freedom.
I may still die in my driveway, but that shouldn’t stop subsequent patriots.
The defeat of the patriots on Lexington Green stopped nothing.
Carolyn, hie thee to your neighborhood gun store and try various guns. Those were excellent suggestions, but it’s not a one-size-fits-all world. Due to my disability, I have difficulty with semi-autos. My personal gun is a Charter Arms .38 revolver. Then go to a range or friend’s farm where nobody can get hurt and practice. Not only shooting but loading at speed. By the time you’re done you won’t be afraid anymore.
@Carolyn – other fun things to try (from my 36-hour security guard gun course): reloading one-handed, and non-dominant hand shooting from a holster on the dominant-hand side.
Seriously, though, if you go revolver, buy a few speedloaders to keep in the nightstand.
it’s one thing to fight against elected officials.
it’s another thing to fight against looters.
it’s yet another thing to fight against the federal machine.
and it’s a whole other thing to fight against the willful stupidity of half the country…
@Denise–spot on…one size does not fit all. Though the weapons recommended were suggested for their simplicity of function and effectiveness in threat elimination.
The Charter Arms .38 you mentioned is a fine close-in “bellygun”. I’m partial to the S&W Airweight. However, while the .38 round will do impressive damage, it is not as immediately effective as the .45 in repelling threats from a middle distance.
It was, through trial, and tragic errors, that the .45 trumped the .38 as an effective sidearm for the Marines and Army Infantrymen stationed in the jungles of the eastern Pacific who had to stand off the repeated savage attacks of Maori tribesmen who, prior to their onslaughts, would wrap wet strips of rawhide around their progenitive organs. The drying strips would constrict, creating physiological reactions which generated elevated adrenaline in their system. The .38s that the soldiers were issued as a standard weapon proved largely ineffective at stopping these attackers. The .45 cal M1911 and its cousin the M1917 revolver, when they were issued, proved extremely effective in stopping those attackers.
Now, while few people these days, outside of the Modern Primitive set, might be emulating the Maori customs, the behaviors of the average meth-head seeking to effect immediate wealth transfer via burglary and assault are similar.
For minimum expenditure of rounds and maximum effectiveness, I’d recommend getting comfortable with .45 cal weapons.
Carolyn….I am a “little” lady with weak joints and an aversion to guns that “kick”. I have a 9mm Glock that is terrific. Really a nice firearm. Also….I finally went to some instruction specifically for the ladies…with an NRA lady instructor….and can shoot box after box now of shotgun shells without any ill effect! Just took someone to show me the ropes…
Thank you, all! Oh and DUUUUUUUUUUUH! I live near NRA headquarters so if I can’t get resources out here then that would have to make me just as lazy as… a liberal!
The First Republic is over. It has been over for quite a while in fact. Our Constitution and form of government was meant for a moral people, and was wholly inadequate for any other. The Culture that valued Freedom, hard work, self-reliance and honesty was corrupted. One half of the country believes the ends justify the means- that they are entitled to lie, cheat, steal and enslave and be lauded as heroes for using those means to further their agenda. They will have their way – they will destroy the dollar, and their power with it. They will be forced to totalitarian measures – trying to take the guns, trying to control the food production, trying to control speech. One half of the country – primarily those who live in cities, will accept those measures blindly. The rest will be rural, heavily armed and pissed, and will hopefully resist such measures. . We are still relatively free. Use this time to withdraw your money from the banks, and buy hard assets that will allow you to become relatively self-sufficient. Land. Greenhouses. Seeds. Farm equipment. Arms and Ammo. Once you have what you need – don’t earn one dollar more than you have to to survive. . Go on the dole if you can stomach it. If you can’t do it alone, find each other and do it together. They are counting on you to do as you always have done – work harder to support them. Not this time. They are a foreign army and a foreign culture. They are occupiers and we have only to sit out and wait for them to do as they always have done. They will destroy themselves in famine and collapse. Their goal is poverty spread equally – and they will achieve it. Make sure you are not one of the impoverished and we will wait them out. Maybe one state will leave, and then the next. The Civil war will start and, God willing, the Second American Republic will be founded with an Amendment that prohibits Federal Funds from ever being distributed to individuals who DO NOT provide services to support the enumerated powers of the govt, and ANY and ALL individuals getting funds from the govt loose their right to vote. If you are on the Dole, you have a conflict of interest. You work for the People and You will obey them.
