Actually, that's "cheese-eating, lily-livered surrender monkeys."

Pro-Gun Absolutism: The Gun Lobby’s Push To Privatize Law and Order.

If you think the NRA is shrill on guns, there are groups even further out on the fringe that consider the NRA a pack of lily-livered surrender monkeys.

Loved the chatter their, short on facts, but oh so long on BS.; April 10, 2013 at 8:00 AM
Uncle Al said...: Although there's something catchy about "cheese-eating" it doesn't make much sense. Certainly not as much sense as coprophagic. In some notable cases, make that autocoprophagic; April 10, 2013 at 4:24 PM
William Flatt said...: Sean, I have been there all afternoon calling these collectivists on their BS. I like stress-testing my cranium against brick walls like that. There were a few who were pro-gun, but in the main I was alone in schooling these libtards.

I addressed the fact that govt monopoly of force always spells trouble and is the exact polar opposite of the original intent. Mag bans, etc., are useless, the technology angle was thrown up (the founders couldn't have foreseen the development of the AR-15, ad nauseam) and smacked that down with they didnt see the automobile, internet or cell phones either, and .gov isn't not banning THAT (yet)!

I figure the libtard preoccupation with the NRA has to do with the fact that the NRA is the weak link: the left doesn't want to go after GOA because that org is a hard target. The weenies at the NRA have a long history of rolling over on command and sometimes do it just because they can! NRA compromises, GOA doesn't. So the left focuses on the NRA in the media to the exclusion of all other groups.

(Funny thing though is, this isn't working. GOA's no compromise bedrock policy is so adamant that the media is giving them significant airtime precisely because GOA is "more to the right" than even the 'right-wing extremist NRA', and "that's news!")

I had fun poking the libtards in their proverbial myopic eye. I don't do it often, but when I do, I do it with gusto!!; April 10, 2013 at 4:56 PM
Anonymous said...: Thanks for the laughs. I like GOA and NAGR and belong to both. They are both hard targets.

Uncle Al, the phrase "cheese eating surrender monkeys" originally referred to the French, who do eat a lot of cheese.; April 10, 2013 at 6:43 PM
Anonymous said...: I'm being forced by their actions, arrogance, and outright lawlessness to believe that the usurpers, tyrants, and thrashers of our Constitution won't get it until we show them in no uncertain terms what the Founders had in mind when they crafted the 2nd Amendment.; April 10, 2013 at 8:21 PM

"Progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress."

I believe that liberty is the only genuinely valuable thing that men have invented, at least in the field of government, in a thousand years. I believe that it is better to be free than to be not free, even when the former is dangerous and the latter safe. I believe that the finest qualities of man can flourish only in free air – that progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress, and of no permanent value. I believe that any man who takes the liberty of another into his keeping is bound to become a tyrant, and that any man who yields up his liberty, in however slight the measure, is bound to become a slave. -- H.L. Mencken

"The Fate of Unborn Millions. . ."

"The time is now near at hand which must probably determine, whether Americans are to be, Freemen, or Slaves; whether they are to have any property they can call their own; whether their Houses, and Farms, are to be pillaged and destroyed, and they consigned to a State of Wretchedness from which no human efforts will probably deliver them. The fate of unborn Millions will now depend, under God, on the Courage and Conduct of this army-Our cruel and unrelenting Enemy leaves us no choice but a brave resistance, or the most abject submission; that is all we can expect-We have therefore to resolve to conquer or die." -- George Washington to his troops before the Battle of Long Island.

"We will not go gently . . ."

This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can't be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won't be done. The Founders' Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.

But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.

And when we are gone, the scattered, free survivors hiding in the ruins of our once-great republic will sing of our deeds in forbidden songs, tending the flickering flame of individual liberty until it bursts forth again, as it must, generations later. We will live forever, like the Spartans at Thermopylae, in sacred memory.

"A common language of resistance . . ."

"Colonial rebellions throughout the modern world have been acts of shared political imagination. Unless unhappy people develop the capacity to trust other unhappy people, protest remains a local affair easily silenced by traditional authority. Usually, however, a moment arrives when large numbers of men and women realize for the first time that they enjoy the support of strangers, ordinary people much like themselves who happen to live in distant places and whom under normal circumstances they would never meet. It is an intoxicating discovery. A common language of resistance suddenly opens to those who are most vulnerable to painful retribution the possibility of creating a new community. As the conviction of solidarity grows, parochial issues and aspirations merge imperceptibly with a compelling national agenda which only a short time before may have been the dream of only a few. For many Americans colonists this moment occurred late in the spring of 1774." -- T.H. Breen, The Marketplace of Revolution: How Consumer Politics Shaped American Independence, Oxford University Press, 2004, p.1.
