"Society in every state is a blessing, but government even in its best state is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one; for when we suffer, or are exposed to the same miseries BY A GOVERNMENT, which we might expect in a country WITHOUT GOVERNMENT, our calamity is heightened by reflecting that we furnish the means by which we suffer." - Thomas Paine

I have yet to see a new year dawn under calm skies...

This is an election year, society has taken a stance however I doubt that stance will stand fast under fire and when the ballot box is in front of the person and a collective thought begins to resound.

By all means prove me wrong, vote your conscience, vote your morals, but vote your collective reasoning and damn us all.

Look on the Bright side, as long as they stand fast long enough to get the firing started we can take it from there, most of the sheeple would just be getting in the way any way.    ;D

I'm an 'optimistic pessimist'.

Due to the ruckus on health care, maybe the Dems, not wanting to rock the boat too hard after the health care biz, will lay low until after the 2010 elections.


I'm really hoping that the 2010 elections will be nicknamed "The Great Toilet Paper Revolt of 2010".
I hope it's goes like one great big wad of TP, wiping the ass of the nation squeaky clean.



Happy New Year to all!!!!!!

I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

I'm not going to make any predictions but it just might be the year (Jan or Feb) where I buy an AR and ammo even though I can't really afford it!

After listening to MB on his Podcast, I really need to consider another "Black Rifle" even if it's an entry level that can be "tweaked" or upgraded on the "Black Market" which will exist, if another AWB or cram down anti-gun legislation is passed.

Keep getting ammo when you can, box or two here and there also.

Worse !

Pelosie, Reed, and BHO will see their legislative dominance coming to an end. This will cause them to cram their legislative agenda through no matter what the cost to our country or it's people. The new National Socialism will be forced fed to America whether we want it or not.

The decade doesn't end until Dec. 31 2010.

I think things will be "better" in the following ways:

1. I do not see the congress or the administration pushing anything like an AWB (or PIF ban), or any other gun control laws in 2010. Unlike health care, guns have proven to be their Stalingrad and they know they will be absolutely annihilated if they try something. So I will go further and state I do not believe they will do anything until Obama's second term (if he gets one). The only hedge I will make here is if he signs some treaty or attempts to have his agencies regulate the crap out of us; we must be ever vigilant.

2. I do see health care being passed into law. Why do I think this is better? I believe this presents us with an opportunity to draw very sharp contrasts between those who are conservative and those who do not like the constitution. I see the potential for a very good dialogue to begin and continue on what is the proper role of government and the rise of the individual over the collective. It's high time we shed the old labels from the past and recast this debate into one of individual freedom and responsibility versus the collective, paternalistic policies of our enemies.

Why are they pushing socialized health care, when they know the majority of Americans do not want it? They have a belief (and I believe there is some validity to this) that once it is passed Americans will gradually embrace it. I believe this is one of the reasons they have put the time out until past 2012.

I also think that once it is passed, over the course of the next few years we will see RINOs and other so-called conservatives get behind it too- they will not repeal this. They will use the health care issue like they have used abortion and guns- wedge issues which they do not intend to do anything about.

3. We must get on offense! We need push the envelope on gun rights. With a resurgence in the belief in individual freedom and responsibility comes the opportunity to reestablish rights that have long since eroded or been eliminated. For example, open carry is a legitimate issue that needs to be pushed- nationwide. We need to reform/abolish aspects of gun laws that made legitimate firearms off limits or highly restricted.

I know it is a dark time now for us but we must resolve to fight to make this turn out the way we want it. We must start a new revolution that is founded on some very old principles. This is going to be tough but we really don't have any other viable choices other than defeat and tyranny.

May we seek God's wisdom, mercy and grace in this noble struggle for the emancipation and freedom of our nation.....
