There Is a New Movement…
by Alvaro Alvillar…and it is us!
We are proud! We are united! We are loyal! We are kind and giving! We are decent! We are diverse! We are always seeking to improve ourselves and lift others! We are always the first ones to show up in time of need-anywhere in the world! We are the most powerful country in the world-but we are not bullies! We are family! We are friends and neighbors! We are Americans and we are without a doubt the best example of a free people the world has ever seen-period.
We are ready to let our voices be heard-loud and clear! We are going to show up whenever and wherever we are called to defend ourselves. We are going to defend all patriotic Americans against slander and libel, in and out of court with both our presence and our pocketbooks. We are going to show up in unprecedented numbers and vote out the garbage, both left and right, that claim to represent us but prove otherwise-time and time again. We are energized, organized, determined and willing to stand up against the lies, intimidation, corruption, media manipulation and government fraud that is and has been perpetrated against us for too long now. We are especially ready to fight and stop any and all efforts that are currently being taken to separate us from our constitutional rights!
We Americans must not stop this forward movement to regain our place in the light. We have come out of the shadows and we have made our presence known. We must stay united and we must remain vigilant and strong. We have been decent to a fault, we have been patient and giving to the extreme and apparently, that is not enough? We have turned the other cheek over and over and over again and-enough is enough! Far too many have mistaken our kindness for weakness and have wrongly chosen to try and take advantage of that. With the help of self-loathing apologetic traitors, sham artists, race baiting profiteers, nefarious and/or cowardly elected representatives, the excessively rich (yet constantly angry) simple minded liberal elite and the well intentioned but unfortunately misinformed and naive-those that have designs on our way of life and our country have made strides. There is an open and concerted movement in this country to replace our constitution with another ideology and anyone who is awake knows this to be a fact-no matter how they spin it! They have made a mistake! Those loyal millions that are voting for entitlements-who have none the less been screwed-are not the majority and the radicals were/are a little too eager to get the job done. This may have worked to some degree in the past and maybe it will work somewhere else, but it cannot and will not work here!
We are like no other country in the world-we are as free as a people/country can be and ultimately-we choose our destiny! We are determined to stop this tearing away of the individual and the growth of big government and return our country to our founding fathers vision and keep it that way-no matter what, who, when, why or how anyone or anything tries to change that! Remember what we Americans are made of! This nation is by birth fiercely independent and willing to stand up and do whatever it takes to preserve this way of life for our children and future generations. Despite lies turned rumors to the contrary, we are the most diverse nation the world has ever seen and never more so then today. For good reason this is the country the rest of the world turns to and all of us hard working, decent, caring, patriotic and common sense Americans are coming together the way it was meant to be-it works! The radicals and their minions didn’t count on us banding together-not this soon and desperately continue, with the help of the lame stream media, to act as if things are going precisely as planned-it is not! Do not be fooled-the word is out! More Americans hear the call, open their eyes and join our/their cause everyday. Our elected representatives seem to be a little slow and better get a backbone-soon! They would be wise to listen and to stand up with us or we will find others who will. For our part-don’t forget the radical/liberal/progressive left made it this far and they will not go or give up easily-we must not let our guard down. For those who do not understand what I am talking about and get their information from one source, keep in mind that we conservatives have nothing to hide. We always have links to liberal sites and feature their columns on our own sites-they never do that! Why would that be? What are they hiding? Why are they afraid to feature our “lies” on their sites? Would it not be in their best interest to do so? Get curious and notice what does and doesn’t get on the local and mainstream news-you’d be amazed!
Whatever the color of our skin, whether we are religious or not, rich or poor, old or young-we are united against all those who would come between us, our families, our constitutional rights and our God given freedoms The call to stand up and be counted has been answered and everyday, our numbers swell and the more the radicals push-the faster and stronger we respond!

fine sentiments all -but- geez- enough with all the – hyphens – already. Commas and semicolons are wonderful grammatical tools and work quite nicely -really. So are periods and introductory preparatory phrases.
Not to be a drip but I was known in law school as the "Grammar Nazi."
Seriously, though, there is no arguing with the ideas presented.
We are awake and we are on the move.
-=LP=-
You forgot to add we are all racists for merely disagreeing with someone of another color! Otherwise, you were spot on with everything else. Nicely done.
Awesome post! There's a lump in my throat.
We do not need to be rehabilitated, & we do not need to repair
our image, as this man said in Denmark.
No wonder they booted him out — In the FIRST round!
Yes we can Mr. Alvillar !!
facts plz
a point, some logic, fewer vapid buzzwords like "socialism!!1?" or perhaps an alternative advancement of solutions for the problems you created and a point-by-point fully-cited discussion of exactly why particular programs championed by Democratic legislators would be significantly more detrimental to the country's future than alternatives (or why Democrats are especially radically far left as compared to mainstream parties in other industrialized nations) would also be nice. your case is also weakened greatly by what is easily falsifiable – neither of the two major liberal sites (democraticunderground and dailykos) has a link or a column, it appears.
no one really takes you seriously when your entire stated purpose is to oppose the Democrats for the sake of doing so, much like no one sought out the perspectives of the teenagers with the "buck fush" caps during the Bush years; you and people like you are the reason people are now ashamed to identify as republican.
[...] There Is a New Movement… – Big Hollywood [...]
AMEN!
If you can not understand why we oppose Democrats here, then your time here is wasted.
I like it alot!
hey "meanmike" it is me-and-mike here… poster #1
if you want some factzzz try doing a little reading too. try reading kenneth miogue's book "alien powers, the pure theory of ideolgy" ( a wonderful critique of Marxist socialism and ideoloy) then check back with us. minogue is a renowned scholar in poli-sci and economics. till then shut your pie hole.
this counter movement is not actually a counter movement. it is conservatives being conservatives. if we look a little uncomfortable it is because we are, we are normally working , eating sleeping and living. we are not used to having to rise up and do this kind of stuff, but, hey, crap happens and times call for it. do we look animated? sure, but our HEARTS are deeply rooted in the way of life we are standing up for and you may be surprised what power there is in that. stay tuned….
I recommend starting here: http://www.gop.gov/solutions/healthcare
How about showing your kindness, decency and diversity by working with the side that won the election, fair and square? Your party is marginalized by its lockstep followers, screaming no! at every turn. It's further marginalized by its chosen spokesmen – Glenn Beck – Rush Limbaugh – both drug addicts, both clowns – have you looked at the demographics of your party lately? The GOP is in the majority only in the poorest southern states – which are also the states with the highest rates of teen pregnancy and STDs.
Look to your own house. Then come after the White House.
SILENT NO MORE
tolerance does not mean compromising principles, it means treating with respect those with whom you deeply disagree. the deeply disagree part still stands (did you notice that part)
How pathetically wrong you are; we are not ashamed to identify ourselves as Republicans. What we are ashamed of are all the RINOs and political cowards in the GOP who have actively assisted the leftist Democrats' attempt to turn the people of this nation into followers of the false religion of Statism. Now as a firm believer in individual freedoms I have no problem if you want to remain an infant all your life with a nanny to watch over your every move and to meet your every base desire. In fact, I will kick in a couple of bucks to keep you in your perpetual huggies. But if you do not want to enjoy the freedoms this country has to offer, the freedom to develop your abilities and to pursue your own interests within the scope of the Constitution, then stay the heck out of the way of the adults who do. If you are a good little boy I promise the adults will bring you a toy.
no-one cares about being republican so much, conservative, perhaps. american, yes.
you said our case is weak. hmm, ive never felt stronger in years, how about the rest of you?
but nice try meanmike….
-Sigh- And so continues the dwindling of what makes this country strong…
Was your first inclination to cheer for the sentiment of the article? No. You began with almost 50 words talking about grammar and proper sentence structure. Only after you've hammered us with a major "Buzz Kill" did you actually comment on the topic of discussion.
While the progressive troops use everything in their arsenal to drive us toward slavery to the state, regardless of any rules they may break, your comment suggests that maintaining our freedom is less important than showing proper form by being grammatically correct.
It is the passion and vigor of our responses that will save us, not commas, periods and hyphens in their proper location.
Being caught in a myriad of criminal exploits has not stopped the left in their mission; I don't think a few overused hyphens should be a big problem for us.
Lockstep Followers? HA! We are hardworking, kind, decent and diverse people who are not going to sit around having people like you tell us what we think anymore! Prime example–you just tried to tell us we chose Glenn and Rush as our spokesmen. Don't worry, we will choose a spokesman, and you will assuredly hate that person. Too bad! In case you haven't heard — THERE IS A NEW MOVEMENT!
Comes a time when you got to get engaged. This is it.
Yes, and I don't mean to seem disrespectful, even though I'm ticked. I used to be a Republican, and it took three times having my job outsourced to change my political views. I think we have to find some principles to agree on. That would be a start.
You make a mistake, common to the Left, in conflating the GOP with Conservatives. While their paths used to be more congruent, since Regan, the GOP has lost its way more often than not. I find it interesting that you cite Rush and Beck as our "chosen spokesmen", not professional politicians who actually have the political power. More straw men and smoke screens, for which your side is so well practiced. Could I say Streisand is your chosen spokeswomyn?
The leader of the RNC is an American. Also the only Americans that I know of that are officially or unofficially not allowed to join GOP are democrats. Quit trying to spread lies worthless democrat.
Hey Gillian, nice rant… if you're an uninformed socialist parrot. Hold on to your shorts sister. It's clear you have no idea what is swirling around you. It's called the "not so silent MAJORITY". We have been silent and passive for much too long. We're out here, we're huge, and we're really mad at what the progressives have done and I would advise you to move to the curb cause you're about to be run over by a big freggin' mack truck called "LIBERTY"!!!
YAH BABY!!!
It is a movement where most people in this country identify with. Wasn't the breakdown 40% Conservative, 40% independent and a whopping 20% liberal? We are a center right country, sorry to break MeanMike's heart, but liberals are the minority. They just have had the biggest mouths for the past 40 years. The times, they are a changin'. People are seeing what lefties in power can do and it isn't good.
Bill Clinton helped in outsourcing your jobs. It was called NAFTA and he signed it into law. Last I remember, he was a liberal Democrat.
Like democrats worked with Republicans when they were in power? They did everything to block, disrupt, disengage & discredit anything that would have moved the country back on track before the economic meltdown. Remember Social Security reform? The changes proposed were a drop in the bucket compared to "cap & trade" and Obamacare! You expect Republicans to roll over and play dead? It's NOT going to happen!
Thanks! I don't mind the constructive criticism at all and I will work on it.
[...] the article here: There Is a New Movement… This entry is filed under America – Blogs, Big Hollywood. You can follow any responses to this [...]
Yeah, I know. I was still a Republican then, and voted against Clinton because of it. Bush didn't stem the tide.
The Dems are the NO party. No to personal freedom, unless it's abortion, illegal immigration, drugs, etc.
No, Amy. I won't hate whoever you pick. I don't even hate Glenn or Rush. I'm calling them out for what they are – both admitted drug addicts, both products of zoo-format morning drive talk radio. Bring on somebody more prominent – they're the ones that are grabbing the spotlight for your party. I won't hate them. I'll even listen.
Has it ever occured to you that excessive, intrusive regulation and union strangleholds also helped to outsource jobs? Which party is more inclined to be busy bodies and intrude on business? That would be the Democrat party. If I were a business owner and had to contend with the amount of regulation and unions, I'd hightail it for the border too.
You are right about Bush, but very wrong about this movement. It is not about people following "someone" but demanding truth and common decency in our government. We want our country back!
Okay…the GOP doesn't represent conservatives? That's a good start. Admitting the party has lost its way, especially in the last ten years, is also a really good start.
I hope that in about three years, the real conservatives will reinvent the party and toss all the rants to the curb. There are too many problems to solve – and Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, Michael Moore, and Barbra Streisand are not interested in helping solve them – they are only interested in riding the wave.
Dear Gillian. This awakening is not about "parties." Those of us in the right can number in the hundreds the republicrats we despise and work to replace as well. Limbaugh and Beck are simply voices but, unfortunately for you, they are OUR voices. They merely articulate the hopes, goals, dreams and love of America held firmly in breast by nearly 70% of the people in this (once?) great nation.
We seek not only the destruction of the elected members of the parties but a return to the Founding vision of this uniquely beautiful Republic. We seek a re-FOUNDING and not a hopey-changey "transformation" to neo-progressivism and an oligarchy of the corrupt and immoral. I invite you to read your history, beginning with Teddy Roosevelt, and realize that you have been sold a bill of goods across the last 90 years. You are NOTHING to them and they will destroy you not long after they destroy Beck or Limbaugh or me.
I suggest "The 5,000 Year Leap," "The Forgotten Man," and "Atlas Shrugged" as primary texts. I presume you have been "educated." Now, I implore you to LEARN.
-=WhoIsJohnGault=-
Nice avatar. Makes me want to communicate with you.
Ok, katy, I'll just step off the road and watch yer mack truck go howlin' by – off the cliff. Have a nice day.
Or maybe pen your own rallying cry? ; )
Please, no. Don't roll over and play dead, that's no fun.
In the thirties, Social Security got invented. Everybody yelled SOCIALISM! – in the 60's there was Medicare, and everybody screamed SOCIALISM!
Yet those are two sacred cows that no politicians dare touch. Security for seniors, medical care for seniors. This next move is no different. People will scream SOCIALISM about anything that has to do with health care reform. Gotta love progress.
Interesting how you waited eight whole years to want that. Whatever changed?
Totally off topic – your dog's top knotting ears made me smile, They look like velvet bells.
20%? Where are you getting your numbers? Trippy.
Alvaro. Loved the piece, seriously. Being a writer (and former blood-sucking lawyer), I (unfortunately) take note of certain idiosyncrasies in all writing. Believe me, nothing personal, it just hit me about the head and shoulders and, I believe, distracted the reader from the message. As you can see from further posts I have made this evening, I am a passionate member of these United States and am thrilled with the outpouring of comment since the Crowning of The One on January 20th. I meant my criticism with the best of intentions and hoped the light-heartedness would have been evident. However, having re-read it, I realize that the language was such that young JP took it a little more seriously than I had hoped. I look forward to your next post.
Live Free Or Die.

I only hope and pray it lasts. I thought 9/11 fundamentally and profoundly changed America, but within 2 years we were back to Britney Spears, dems filibustering judges and trying to ruin Bush, and all sorts of trivial BS.
I'm not 100% happy with the GOP or the RNC, but they are at least in the same ballpark as the Constitution, and the Values I hold. The Dem's are way off the reservation.
I'm a staunch supporter of this new "tea party" or "True Conservativism", Maybe we should call it "Olde-Con" instead of the riduculed "Neo-Con"… Let's put the constitution back into daily use in our Federal Government operations, and lets put good old fashioned "Conservative" values back on top of the stack again.
You, as with most liberals, think that conservatives followed lockstep with Bush.We didn't and we bitched about a lot of things. Bush was NO conservative.
"They merely articulate the hopes, goals, dreams and love of America held firmly in breast by nearly 70% of the people in this (once?) great nation."
They (and you, if you "follow" them) do not have any love of "America" – they love a mythological version of America that NEVER truly existed; just as "the left" loves a mythological future that can NEVER truly exist. Societies don't evolve is disconnected segments – everything is part of everything else. If you want to "rewind" back to some point in the past because of a few select things that were "better" then, you will also rewind back to all the things that WEREN'T better. EVERYTHING is connected: Do you want the glory of the modern city? Then you will also have the danger of the INNER city. Do you want a less restrictive culture in regards to sexuality? STDs and promiscuity are the price.
What good did it ever get the hard working American taxpayers who play by the rules and are just trying to be left alone and get along to raise their familes in a loving and safe environment—–misinterpreted as a unfashionable neighborhood and a signaling of feebleness and not able to resist an external force—–and was cannibalized to insert a radical sociopitical program—Fascism.
Big government, with Obama at the head is the enemy—- these bastards were not prepared for the backlash that is brewing—now even a blind person in their camp can sense that the tide is changing—and (the bill will be paid)—heads will roll on election day—the only place left for the liberal scum will be up Barney Franks asshole—mainstream media is next.
oh no honey. The only cliff near by is the one the leftist lemmings are currently jumping off in droves. Don't look down…it's easier that way.
So what's your point? That since politicians don't touch them, they're not socialism? The proposed healthcare is socialism. It's centralising an entire industry under government authority. Have you listened to some of your esteemed Democrat congressmen, senators and president? They call for single payer as their ultimate goal. It is socialism. Your party, the Democrat party I assume, is led by the far left (socialists/communists/facists) and they have clearly stated that they want to run the oil, airline, auto, health industries. What am I missing here?
The statists deserve to be relegated to obscurity. It's time to turn the tides and make this country work again. Even Ireland has kicked our collective ass because they, unlike our government, know how to properly calibrate corporate income tax for maximum revenue and employment.
Correct
They have been blindly following Obama and the congress over the cliff. I'm just waiting for the monotone chants of "Yes we can" to be heard on a quiet night. We never followed Bush like these people have with Obama.
Since the Dems have been in power, Republican's have been locked out of mark up committees and from giving any input to Cap and Trade, the so-called stimulus (more of a Democrat donor payback bill) and the healthcare debacle.
Typical. Confusing the issue by requiring "red tape" and explanations that pin you to a point of view so they can then attack from a wholly new off issue angle.
And then the unintelligent rant making no sense.
I just looked again and did not see Mr. Alvillar mention the Democrats. He did write that we should not "…forget the radical/liberal/progressive left…" So it's nice to know that you equate those groups together.
The MSM has already sold their souls to the Democrat party and Obama. About Bawney Fwank? Ewwww.
The MSM has already sold their souls to the Democrat party and Obama and aren't even being subtle about it. And about Bawney Fwank? Ewwww.
I'm with you on sending the Statists to obscurity. Not getting along with, but defeating them once and for all.
There have been many opportunities over the past two decades when certain very smart people offered suggestions and laid out plans to correct our course. But the people who make the tides turn often decided not to go in the prudent direction. And over the course of many battles won and lost in many arenas, here we are. And we are tired of the crap. And we are now going to deal with it. Hoo-F-in-ray!!!!
Don't be too quick to think you know what "they are only interested in" doing. Should we make that assumption of you? Of course not. They are businessmen on a good cycle right now. And we need to all thank whoever you want to thank for the freedom that allows them to do so.
Is Obama a communist, Fascist or something else?
Obummer's mania for grandiose performance, characterized by a delusional mental disorder of personal omipotence, makes Obummer neither a communist or a Fascist, but something much worse. He is "The Quintessential Manchurian Redeemer". Obummer is everything to everybody so long as you don't oppose his pseudo philosophical ideals. He will always put his goals before any practical considerations.
Obummer abhors with violent antipathy anyone who disagree's with him. His ideals are so radical and opposed to our general consent of standards—-he has become a magnet for socialist's, Marxist's, Fascist's, communist's and all manner of lowlife's who loathe this country.
As dissent for his policies mount—the unravelling of his psychosis will be characterized by his defective and lost contact with reality, as evidenced by his disorganized speech, even when the teleprompters are present—the worst is yet to come.
If "god" gave them to you, they're not your freedoms!! he can take them back any day.
It is called dying.
We need to five you examples of our precognizance of failure of Democrat ideas? OK, just a cursory reading of the 20th Century provides boundless examples of how central planning failed everywhere and every time it’s tried.
OH HELL YESSS!!!
I came to America to better myself and therefore my children. I want nothing of a handout, I want no welfare checks, no 'coupons' for help for nursing mothers, I want nothing to do with 'begging' for my sustenence– what I want is to be left alone by gov't to do as I please w/in the bounds of human law- altho at times they're stupid, to support my family, as long as I do not disadvantage anyone in the process.
I swore alllegiance to the United States of America and that oath will never be broken.
Corrupt politicians- left and right- I am awake!! I and milions more. We are passionate about our love for this country and we will sacrifice to protect it. If you don't stand with us– you are against us– sorry to repeat that, but it's appropriate…
This 'new movement' is interesting, because it's difficult to work out what it is they're trying to say.
There's no truth whatsoever to the idea that these are 'normal people' opposing the rapid expansion of government. If they'd made their presence known five years ago, that argument may have had some currency. They've missed the boat on the whole government intrusion thing, unfortunately, so it's difficult to see this 'movement' as anything other than a bunch of sore losers grumbling that the guy from their team didn't win this time.
I could be wrong, of course. Maybe they're anarcho-syndicalists. Or, if they're truly committed to the idea of the government being reduced to nothing and getting out of people's lives, then maybe they're communists in the Marxist sense. I somehow doubt that this is the direction they're shooting in, though.
Again, wouldn't it be nice if all these people had something to say?
Hey, Gillian, I'd just like to give you mad props for standing your ground. Whole lot of hate seething in here.
"by working with the side that won the election,fair and square".
Yeah, fair and square like an ACORN Tax Return! Have you been living on the International Space Station, been in a coma, or lived in some sensory deprevation chamber for a new realty T.V. show the last 3 weeks? Or do you only get your news from MSNBC? Won the election fair and square, you're funny Gillian, I like you.
Obummer? Really? Is there some unofficial competition on the internet for Lamest Presidential Nickname? Because I might have to shake your hand.
Hey, internet friends. Have you ever accused someone of using empty rhetoric and demagoguery, but you weren't really sure what it meant?
Wonder no more! Alvillar has decided to provide you with a handy reference tool!
He didn't specifically name Democrats, you twit. He said that we were fighting for the ideals laid forth in the Constitution and against anything that challenged those ideas, BOTH Democratic and Republican. Now if you're feeling a little guilty (the compulsion to confess) and read into his narrative "Democrat" go on ahead and do so. You've shown your hand.
Actually I think we'd just like the ideals laid down by the founding fathers to actually be followed. You know: We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator by certain inalienable rights…. that's all. Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, among others. We'd like less government interference in our daily lives. And I'm not sure I would call what has happened to our society in the past 50-60 years "evolution" (with the thought being that evolution is a positive thing.) If anything it has devolved. Progressivism at it's finest! It is a little near-sighted to say that the ideals we seek to be re-established in this nation would throw us back to the "bad old days." Those words in the founding documents are timeless with no obvious anachronisms showing. You're very cynical and I feel for you.

Bravo! I'm there with you. I feel, at least in this household, that we will NEVER sit idly by and let our freedoms come into this much jeopardy again. We will be watching our elected officials like hawks.
The Constitution of the United States of America needs to be protected at all costs. It is not flawed and it is not a living document. Finally it is not to be interpreted by using foreign laws or rulings. Progressives and the democrat party have been put on notice.
"And I'm not sure I would call what has happened to our society in the past 50-60 years "evolution" (with the thought being that evolution is a positive thing.)"
"Evolution" is neutral – neither innately positive nor negative – it is simply gradual change over time in reaction to circumstances.
"Those words in the founding documents are timeless with no obvious anachronisms showing."
You're kind of making my point for me. The ideals and words of the Founding Fathers remain brilliant, but what also remains is the fact that there was NEVER a point in American history when those ideals were implemented "to the letter." Hell, no sooner had they been WRITTEN than did some involved make haste to come up with a compromise by which "All Men…" didn't include Black Men.
Oh man….you had to go THERE didn't you….I lost my appetite…..probably for a week…
"This 'new movement' is interesting, because it's difficult to work out what it is they're trying to say."
Not really. They're "angry" and/or "frightened," and that's about it – the "about" or the "of" are decorative, really.
It's the flip-side to Obama's carefully-constructed intangibility – it enabled him to be "all good things without explanation" to liberals during the election… but NOW it makes him an easy stand in for "all BAD things without explanation" to conservatives now. Everyone's personal god is some else's personal devil.
What?! Are you so full of your own ideals and of all those who believe that only HUGE GOVT is better that you are incapable of discerning when we people are sincere in our efforts to be heard? Many of us are learning and becoming involved for the first time in our lives in anything that seems so very important; not losing any constitutional freedoms! And yes, I am not ashamed to say I/we are becoming students again of our constitution in order to know in no uncertain terms ALL there is to protect in our constitution that it may last for generations to come in the same form in which it was written. It is not a living document.
How dare you or anyone else think that anyone of us is not capable of standing up on any given day and saying "OK, I've had enough! I should have done more sooner. Or, things are out of hand; I'VE been out of hand just by being less than proactive and not speaking up until now. Now we have a bull horn to use instead of our own individual voice and we feel empowered.
Do not underestimate us sir. If all of us haven't made ourselves clear to you in a professional enough way or concise enough verbage, it will not take long for to learn to do so. The learning curve looks like it will be fun ride and we are in this for the long haul.
Oh, and anarcho-syndicalists? They do oppose exploitation and domination in all forms but embrace socialism. The working class and working peasants, poor people are thought to be able to overthrow the govt. and control the land and factories for the benefit of all.
We are not looking for stateless power or a revolution of the unions or the masses to rule we will maintain a government "of the people by the people and for the people" as Mr Lincoln so eloquently stated so long ago.
May the Lord bless you and yours today and always my fellow Scuffle American.
To Scuffle: Are you so full of your own ideals and of all those who believe that only HUGE GOVT is better that you are incapable of discerning when we people are sincere in our efforts to be heard?

Now we have a bull horn to use instead of our own individual voice and we feel empowered.
Do not underestimate us sir. If all of us haven't made ourselves clear to you in a professional enough way or concise enough verbage, it will not take long for to learn to do so. The learning curve looks like it will be fun ride and we are in this for the long haul.
Oh, and anarcho-syndicalists? They do oppose exploitation and domination in all forms but embrace socialism. The working class and working peasants, poor people are thought to be able to overthrow the govt. and control the land and factories for the benefit of all.
We are not looking for stateless power or a revolution of the unions or the masses to rule we will maintain a government "of the people by the people and for the people" as Mr Lincoln so eloquently stated so long ago.
May the Lord bless you and yours today and always my fellow Scuffle American.

That top picture MUST be of the lefty/commie protests at the G20. From what the press told us, it was peaceful and uneventful except for the cops stepping over the line and getting out of hand. That picture couldn't be of the unruly, anti-American tea party protestors.
Choose a side. Voting present is not allowed. Not you yoss but as a challange to those who waffle.
I'm tired of having to explain this to supposedly educated liberals. Whether or not you are one Mike…socialism is not a buzz word, it's a form of government which we oppose. Yes, we really think this administration is socialist.
Remember Gillian, liberals are at about a 20% of the people in this country. The best way to get a Republican president/congress is to put liberals/Democrats in charge. People see what they do and they're out.
Also, it is not an "insult" (you didn't say that, others have) it's a description of policy. I'm not calling Obama that to discredit or defame him. Anyone has the right to believe in socialism as the best system in this country…I have the right to disagree.
Has it ever occured to you that excessive, intrusive regulation and union strangleholds also helped to outsource jobs? Which party is more inclined to be busy bodies and intrude on business or individual freedom? That would be the Democrat party. If I were a business owner and had to contend with the amount of regulation and unions, I'd hightail it for the border too. Jobs aren't a right. And business isn't in the business of providing jobs. It's just one of the side benefits.
We didn't wait 8 years. We complained for a lot of the 8 years – illegal immigration, TARP, McCain Feingold, selling out education to the swimmer-Ted Kennedy. Bush was no conservative and was essentially Democrat light. Except he had more balls on the national defense than your average Democrat.
So what's your point? That since politicians don't touch them, they're not socialism? The proposed healthcare IS socialism. It's centralizing an entire industry under government authority. Have you listened to some of your esteemed Democrat congressmen, senators and president? They call for single payer as their ultimate goal. It is socialism. Your party, the Democrat party I assume, is led by the far left (socialists/communists/facists) and they have clearly stated that they want government to run the oil, airline, auto, health industries. What am I missing here?
gillian, Please see which Blue states are failing, and which Blue cities are failing….
I will accept your apology.
Get some facts dude……
Very recent Gallup (hardly a conservative polling company) poll. Okay 21% consider themselves liberal. I was off 1%. Pretty trippy huh?

It is amazing that we have to lobby our selves to be heard. What ever happened to the representative government. Oh I forgot, it was bought by special interests. You know those grass-root companies.
The phrase "opposing the democrats for the sake of doing so" has sort of a nice ring to it, I like it.
I'll put it on my business card along with submoronic racists, I believe it Garofalo that called us. You Libs
are great at name calling. My business card is as large as Tiger Woods winners check on the 18th tee.
Do you folks go back to Huffpo between trolling here and reload? Originality is not your strong suit.
I'll tell you what and save you sometime, I will visit huffpo once a week and read the names coming our way
then you don't have to visit us and lower this sites IQ just by stopping by. Deal?
I predict the "Barakster" is going to lose it on camera during a Q&A somtime in the near future and come unhinged before our very eyes. He will then be characterized as a "victim" and be sent to Camp David for several weeks while the Rhammy and Axel-rod try and figure a defense….just a thought. Keep up the pressure you evil mobsters.
