"When are those stupid Buckeyes going to retire that sell-out a--hole?" Plus, the price of McConnell's treason.

Boehner taps Dems to push budget deal across finish line.

The above link was forwarded to me with the comment "When are those stupid Buckeyes going to retire that sell-out a--hole?" The only silver lining is that Boehner might, just might, lose the Speaker's gavel over this. Can't come too soon.

This man runs unopposed in primaries, AND several general elections. This year our choice is between him and a neo-communist democrat. His republican opponent in the "primary" won't have his name spoken 5 times by the local "news" before Nov. 2014. Like most of them(republicans) he will most likely "drop out of the race" in the next six months(they all seem to do that) and Mitch will run a solo ticket. So how the Hell do we get rid of Mitch guys? The system is rigged, and the "vote" meaningless.; October 17, 2013 at 6:13 AM
SWIFT said...: In my lifetime, I recall missing two elections that I did not vote. I will never vote in a national election again. The mendacity out of Washington has finally got my attention. I will now just patiently wait for the other shoe to drop. And, drop it will!; October 17, 2013 at 6:14 AM

And as much as the pricks in the media and the establishment Republicans like Lameass John McLame continue to disparage the Tea Party Conservatives the more they dig a little deeper. When morons and drunks like Bob Beckle contiue to refer to us as the fringe the more they will see what the fringe can do. This is all about control. The Republicans in Congress are scared shitless. They see Ted Cruz, Mike Lee, Rand Paul and some of the newly elected members in the House emerging as the successors to them. They are losing their power and new leadership is emerging. That is why the likes of Beckle and the Country Clubbers are joing forces to keep the new people out of the club. The one thing that is apparent Washington is scared to death of the Tea Party members. You can always tell what they fear by the way they go after it. They attack that which they fear the most. And they fear the Tea Party because they know it is made up of the people. Democrats, independants, conservatives are all members. Blacks, whites, Hispanics and all races are members. The thing the politicians fear the most is that the people start paying attention to what they are doing. They are now in preservation mode. Now is the time for us to strike.; October 17, 2013 at 10:28 AM

"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.
