If we wish to avoid Ned’s fate we need to take Antonio Gramsci’s advice and “capture the culture”. Its what the libs have done and that’s why our side can never get any traction or a fair hearing. There’s no natural law which says the libs have to own the arts, the media and the education system but they do, and as long as they do, we’ll still be oinking like piggies.

We can win a war of ideas, we’ve done it before, but we have to start fighting it first.

Oh, Lordy, Lordy, this is going to be fun.

We’ve told you before that at Obama fundraisers here in Chicago (which we were invited to by people who knew we’d listen closely and dish everything we heard on HillBuzz…Democrats who could never be seen opposing “Dear Leader”, but Democrats who have chosen to stand with us, in the shadows, as we all join forces as Americans to stop Obama and his socialism), Obama bundlers berated Clinton donors to pony up cash for Obama — even though Clinton people are more inclined to donate to McCain/Palin than anything. Well, at these fundraisers it was common for Obamaphiles to stress to all assembled how prepared they were for “three punches” they saw coming at Obama in the closing days of the general election.

The first punch they predicted was exposing Obama’s true socialist nature, through his connection to William Ayers, Jeremiah Wright, Frank Marshall, Raila Odinga, Samantha Power, and other assorted kooks, radicals, and loons. Thanks to Obama’s mask slipping on the visit with Joe the Plumber, this punch has been a big CHECK. The only thing that has not come out in terms of this are the audiotapes we’ve been told repeatedly exist of Obama campaigning with Cousin Odinga in Kenya back in 2006, where Obama agrees with Odinga’s anti-American sentiments and says the American national anthem is a racist, violent war song and must be replaced with something passive, peaceful and wholly secular. Obama’s dealings in Kenya have not come to light at all — which is a sham, we feel, because 7 days before the election is not enough time to bring any of this out. It’s not enough time to sink in.

The second punch we were told was coming involves Obama’s presence at a 2003 dinner where Palestinian Rhashid Khalidi was honored, amongst frequent calls for the immediate destruction of the state of Israel. Obama and Michelle attended this hatefest, smiling throughout, with reports of Bernadine Dohrn and William Ayers in attendance (and possibly sharing a table with the Obamas).

It means that when they get home with their trick-or-treat hauls, tell them they have too much candy and that you’re going to distribute it to kids who didn’t go trick-or-treating.

When they complain that’s not fair, be sure to tell them that’s what Obama and the Democrats want the whole country to be like – if you work hard for something, it has to be taken away and given to those who didn’t work at all.

Given the indoctrination they get in school each and every day, it may be the only time to reach them.

We just have to hope/trust that the truth will bring some people to the light.

Steve, my thoughts on that would be for you to post side by side articles that show the difference in MSM treatment of McCain/Palin vs Obama/Biden.
I’m not sure how much work that would entail, or even if it will make any difference at this late stage, but from what I’ve seen, the MSM is really going for broke on this one.
In the last month, I’ve seen so-called news articles attacking Sarah Palin that I ordinarily would have breathlessly posted here -”look at the bias!” -but I haven’t bothered because there are is already such a flood of them. Every couple of days, something new and outrageous comes out.

I hope someone with a lot of time on their hands is quietly documenting all this before it gets scrubbed from the official records.

I still say most Americans are stupid enough to say “I have to put 5% into a fund that guarantees a 3% return? Where do I sign?“

Talk to friends and family if they are stuck on “independent”. A lot of mature citizens who have worked and saved through their lives are usually quite attentive to a short exposé of the current proposal to take over 401ks – show them copies of these articles:

And point out that as they take away your 401k the fiscally responsible Congress will require you to take a guaranteed retirement account –

-The plan proposes to pay 3% return adjusted for inflation using government bonds, with maybe up to a $600 match of funds from the Federal Government each year. Sounds grand except:
Mandatory contribution of 5% of what you earn – your taxes just went up

-Loss of the pretax contribution tax deduction – your taxes just went up again

-How they decide to implement this concerning those who have or are about to retire may seriously degrade the quality of retirement they worked for and counted on their 401k to fund their retirement…that’s not a tax, you just got robbed by your elected representatives…

-You don’t decide how much you get to take out/keep. Do you really think an Obama administration with “social justice” and “redistribution” on the brain is going to see it as right that you who worked all your life, earned more as you achieved and thus saved more (in your mandatory 5% contribution) will get back what you earned and saved compared to some scum bag anarchist that lives off of welfare and riots against civilization and never saves anything? itself?….yep, the sum of your contributions will probably be a used to subsidize the those who don’t have as much in theirs….you got taxed again ol’ buddy….

-Eventually – when you go on “terminal leave” from this Utopia they are creating – who gets what’s left in your account? Only half would go to your hires (if we are lucky) – The social security Administration takes a death tax on your hard work.

-Finally, if 401ks are on the table – how far behind are Roth IRAs, Traditional IRAs and other tax exempt programs?

They need to be reminded it isn’t just comrade Obama that is after their savings and congressional elections will be decisive to.Who do they want to trust with their retirement svaings???

Remind them of Joe the plummer and leave them the copies of the articles…

I realized that the game was on after the Obama show. It could still be done the next night. Of course, if Philly wins tonight…

What they don’t realize is that to many other Americans and, frankly, most of the rest of the world, those same Americans are the rich.

For example, it’s amazing how high support for Obama runs in the San Francisco Bay area, when of course any homeowner in San Francisco needs to be making a minimum of $250,000 to qualify for even a sub-prime home loan in an area where $750,000 will buy you a garage.

I still have all of mine and they are welcome to come and try to take them. It will make for interesting times.

1. Key in on the socialism thing. A big pic of Obama with the inscription “big brother is watching”
2. That smug pic of Obama with his nose held high juxtaposed next to the similar pics of Il Duce, yeah he was fascist, but most people are too stupid to know the difference. But still a dictator.
3. Get people riled up about taking money from people who work and give to those who don’t
4. Dems are no longer for the “working man,” they are for the non-working man. You want change, the dems have been promising the same social welfare BS to the “poor” for decades now without delivering. Obama just promises more of the same. More taxes, more government, less business.
5. Last one of my favorite quotes from Churchill that sounds something like this: I contend a country that tries to tax its way to prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket trying to lift himself by the handle.

Republicans need to unapologetically reduce the size of government, but they had the chance to do that 2 major times in my life, (well 3, Reagan tried) back when Newt was in Control, and when Bush & Co had control of the Congress, White House, and Supreme Court……..you will be lucky to ever see that again in your life. We had the chance and completely blew it.

It will take a new generation to endure the Democrats for a good decade before the voters again rise up and kick them out of office. Already the Dem. Congress is unpopular, perhaps in another 5 years people will put 2 and 2 together.

We had a chance to reorganize our resources to find a solution to the #1 issue, alternative fuel, but our gov’t is too addicted to oil and its revenues.

Just not in the way they would like people to believe.

Palin has won from behind before, but only when she was herself, not when she was spouting (and chastised for not spouting) the lines she was told to.

Well at least she can go back home and take care of her family and Todd can go back to snowmobiling… until Obama makes snow machines illegal (a waste of fossil fuels and a big polluter, naturally.)

Then perhaps all of Alaska will be made a wildlife refuge.

After all, if “Joe the Plumber”‘s life can be destroyed for simply asking the anointed one a question, how will he retaliate against a conservative woman that dared run against him?

Hell, Hillary’s going to have a hard enough time dealing with the Messiah.

If there’s any joy to be had in an Obama world it will be the self-satisfaction of eventually watching Joy Behar and the rest of the women of The View forced to do their show in Burqas.

(It also will be ironic when it’s not “Christians” but rather Muslims that eventually force creationism to be taught in US schools…)

Meanwhile, perhaps we’d all best avoid the reeducation camps by changing our registrations to “Democrat” now, rather than next week…
