I wholeheartedly agree. But how do we go about putting the 'fear of God" in them? Non-agressive methods don't seem to have any effect.
It's all well and good to say that we can effect change with the ballot, but what happens when the welfare leaches out-vote us?
Sadly I have no answer for that. I can only think a split from the
majority party in place now, going back to a true conservative platform
would wake up the GOP. This I don't see happening either. It takes
a lot to do so, and lets face it as M14rick brings to point, people are
satisfied with the status quo, or are just too pre-occupied with other
things in their lives to really care.
I saw last night on TV that McCain was the front runner for the
08 GOP candidate for the presidency. I WILL NOT vote for a
person who wants to give illegals a free ticket while at the
same time attacking the right to keep and bear arms.
A third party is my only personal hope. It may not get far,
but voting for the either of the two gluttonous parties is
simply not a choice for me when presented with the likes of a
Clinton, McCain, or Guiliani. They all sleep in the same bed,
only using with different colored blankets.
The old saying, "Every great journey starts with a small step"
comes into play for me as far as a party I can identify with,
but Lord does it seem like a journey all up hill...Bob
