Democrats: Count your blessings!

[PoliticalChic]

As we have seen, there is no room for conservatives in the GOP. There is a myriad of ways to sabotage them.

If conservatives want to get politically active, support the Article V movement. States need to rise up and take power back from the Feds.

I for one would not want any of our current crop of politicians to get their excrement-encrusted fingers on the Constitution.

Re-assert the 10th Amendment, and enforce it to the letter.

We can dream, can't we.

The 32nd President drove a stake through the heart of the Constitution.


In 1935, the Supreme Court upheld the New Deal repudiation of gold payments in government contracts and private contracts .... Justice McReynolds declared in a dissenting opinion that "the Constitution as we have known it is gone." The Brookshire Times from Brookshire, Texas on March 1, 1935 · Page 2

The only way to stop the runaway train is for debt to rise to such a point that everything goes belly up, or a civil war starts between liberal and conservative states who should be allowed to run their own affairs with the respect that is due them, regarding such things as health care. Or we can try to save the Republic with the Article V amendments.

I don't really have a very optimistic view of the future for America. The collectivists have patiently used a full century to get to their power position.....and I don't think we have 100 years to defeat them.

We don't need 100 years. We simply need to act with what we currently have.

How do we take back the schools and the media?

How long before we can re-install patriotism and a love and respect for out country?

 

[Mac1958]

After watching the FBI director's inconsistent explanation as to why he announced an investigation of Hillary Clinton shortly before the election of 2016, while saying nothing about the investigation of Trump and Co. it seems the Democrats don't fully appreciate their situation. With this ignorant, and ineffective President at the helm, the Democrats can watch with glee as the GOP wanders from one failure to another while controlling both the White House and both houses of Congress. It won't take long for the mood of the country to sour on the GOP (It's not exactly sweet now!) and the voters will change things from red to blue in the next 1-2 elections. Relax Democrats, not even Russia's dirty little tricks will be able to save the GOP next time.

I'd rather be proven wrong and see Trump do great, because that would mean America is doing great.

Hoping for, or cheering on, the mood of the country to sour means you're hoping for the opposite.

This party over country crap is killing us.

I believe you are right. The once conservative GOP party has been under constant attack from progressivism. The Dems are committed to the progressive movement and the expansion of the Federal Government. Thus, when they are in control they move the country significantly left. The GOP is torn between the desire to control and their former principles. This division is manifested thru inner party squabbles, and as we see now, the inability to govern at all.

If Republicans believe in shrinking government, why does the size of government EXPAND when Republicans are in power and shrink when Democrats are in power?

If Republicans believe in shrinking government, why does the size of government EXPAND when Republicans are in power and shrink when Democrats are in power?

Because both partys are for big government.

The GOP is there to build up the military so the US can police the world. The DNC is there to build up big government at home so they can police those at home.

Together they make an all encompassing behemoth that will rule the world.
