A sobering read

I know politics threads can turn ugly, but this just shows how badly BOTH sides have mismanaged our government and why they ALL need to be kicked out.

As to my feelings about the people in Washington that have deliberately caused this mess I'll simply say... ... Some things are better left unsaid.

I've been shouting from the rooftops for years...my words fall on deaf ears. So I've stopped shouting and started preparing. Some of the things I've done is started buying things so my family can have a chance at survival. Gold, seeds, land, food, tools, medicines and weapons are all on my shopping list. Does that make me a kook? Perhaps some people might think so. I really don't care about them. To my way of thinking, only a fool stays in a burning building.

Destroyer. You one of them Tea Baggers?
It seems to be coming to a boil PDQ. I have not prepared for the worst. Ferm's link is scary, crazy.
"When the government gets big enough to give you everything you want, the government will be big enough to take everything you have" Thomas Jefferson.
I think the liberals have their eye on the prize and cannot help anyone but themselves. The Tea Baggers speak to me but I don't have any time off to go to a rally. I am poor so I have less in common with those representing me than I do the garbage man. But I vote.
Because the media is so liberal they portray some conservatives as kooky. But I would rather be labelled a kook and capable of handling the survival and well being of my family than to be normal and underprepared. Since the government does not produce anything (besides entire generations of people who are dependent on government) any increase in spending means they have to steal it from someone else first.
If you wish to see your blood boil check out Bill Maher on HBO. It will give you a glimpse at how the Hollywood Liberals view the Tea Baggers and the Republicans. Last week he made reference to people that have a big boat as being the problem. I kid you knot. The pot smoking hippie millionaire thinks the only way to a balanced budget is to gut the military and stop America from occupying nations that are not at war as we spend more on our military than the next 6 countries combined. Methinks he may need a refresher on the Constitutuion.

BTW- I loved your threads on Permission to Board and Old Glory.
I found my flag and got it ready for the next outing. Shame on me for stowing it away in the first place.

Piss off a liberal- Work Hard, Play Hard, Take Care of Your Own Business and be Happy.

Ridgerunner, you honor me sir. It is I that should be thanking you and everyone here for the opportunity to be a part of this group.

I'm not really a tea bagger... I like coffee and beer.

To anyone that does not understand where I stand, I have 4 priorities in my life. God, Country, Family and Fishing. In that order. Life has taught me that: You cannot have a Country without God. You cannot have a Family without a Country, and you cannot go Fishing without your wife's permission.

I love all 4 of the previously mentioned items.

I like ice cream. I tend to be conservative in my views. I'm an independant. Since I only take what I'll eat and then practice catch and release I guess I'm a conservationist. I don't believe in global warming. I do believe in the Constitution. I like ice cream. I will fight any man or any group of men that tries to take away my God given freedoms, to the last drop of my blood. I believe in peace through strength. I like pumpkin pie (with ice cream on it).

Yep..... that about says it all.

Oh....

Bill Mayer disgusts me. He's the biggest waste of human skin that I can think of.
