Thank you for your vote for Santorum. He was one of my favorites. And thank you for your announced forthcoming vote for Romney. Your Country will be better for it.
"Posting long-winded threats about what Obama is going to do if elected makes you sound like a kook. Why not discuss what has and hasn't been done in the last three years."
You need to understand though that my fears are not for what has been done in the past 3 1/2 years. My fears are for the future. I don't look at it as making a threat. I look at it as a fairly intelligent PROMISE of what will happen to our Country if we re-elect him. He's laid most all of the groundwork allready in his first team. If he gets re-elected, and doesn't have to worry about the chores of being re-elected, he can (and will) devote all of his time to implementing (through executive orders, czars and unelected departments) his ideas for "fundmentally transforming America". He will turn us into a Marxist state. I, for one, don't want to live in a Marxist state. I fought in Vietnam. I saw first hand what communism is all about. I saw the bodies.
Many people don't know what Marxism is, so here, according to Webster, is a short defination: Marxism is the political, economic, and social principles and policies advocated by Marx; especially : a theory and practice of socialism including the labor theory of value, dialectical materialism, the class struggle, and dictatorship of the proletariat until the establishment of a classless society.
Did you catch that line about dictatorship of the proletariat? (We, the people, are the proletariat). See, the problem with that is that establishment of a classless society never happens. There will always be classes. The elite will always think they are better than us, that they should be at the top, with the best of everything and thinking that it's the job of the rest of us to supply it to them. If we don't, if we speak out against them, they kill us. They rule by fear That's what has happened in every dictatorship throughout history, without exception, and it will happen here also. So yes, the future scares the sh!t out of me. If you think that makes me look like a kook, then I wear that mantle with honor and pride.
"Making bigoted remarks about Obama supporters removes all your credibilty".
I'm not a bigot, and I've never made or read a bigotted remark here about any supporter that I'm aware of, so I'm not sure where that came from. Perhaps you can give me an example?
"If you make these posts just to let off steam, just know that it damages others opinion of you. If you really wanna convince people or change minds in these internet discussions, try being a little more persuasive".
I make these posts because I view myself as a patriot. A man that deeply loves his Country and the freedoms it stands for. I don't make them to let off steam. I make them to try and let others see what has been happening to their Country and why it has been happening. Hell, it's never going to be reported in the mainstream press, so unless people like me make these types of posts a large segment of the population will never know what's about to befall them until it's too late. I'm not a great orator, nor really good with words like Willy, so you'll have to forgive me for being long-winded. But you need to understand that I'm trying to be as persuasive as is humanly possible. Don't criticise my words, listen to the thoughts behind them.
