Yep! We better hurry though, before the National Axe Association and the League of Old Time Loggers get a game plan organized. If we can get the support of the Liberal Majority we'll be able to push it through, even if we have to do it in the dark of night and have our leader sign it on the QT.

If Conservatives had it right they'd be the majority as our most recent election demonstrated.

Conservatives do have it right, they just don't buy votes from underinformed voters by giving them "free" cell phones and promising them forgiveness of their student loans and telling them that they will soon be the recipients of money taken from the "rich" just to make it fair.

In Obama's book, The Audacity of Hope, he clearly spells out that for virtually every human misery there ought to be a government agency and requisite funding to help those that are suffering from that misery thereby creating and perpetuating a population dependant on the government rather than being self sufficient.

Who are underinformed voters more likely to vote for, the party that coddles them with "free" stuff from cradle to grave or the party that wants you off of said entitlements and self reliant?

Duh...

The culture is in trouble folks, 'cuz with the aid of the propaganda wing of the government (the media) and the financial wing (unions) the progressives are winning.

I'm thinking assault sling shots, Lonedog. It all started when that demented kid named David slew that big cuddlebear Goliath.

Then of course there are those terrible assault pillows. So deadly that they can be used to smother a victim as he/she sleeps. We absolutely HAVE to remove them from the hands of evil doers and those who only use them to practice sleeping alike. You can never tell when one of those who is only practicing will flip and start cutting Z's in earnest.
