Please go to http://www.kcci.com/politics/17634080/detail.html, and help me give these uneducated Obama/ McCain supporters a education in the Constitution.

There is no longing in, just a screen name and email addrss required to make a point. Thanks.

I have to leave soon for a VFW meeting but will be checking back in when I return. Thanks again.

    Ron, I must be dumb (nobody argues) I couldn't find a place to make a comment on a discussion. Perhaps you can provide a more precise link?

    My dial-up precludes me doing so...I sat for 15 moments trying to access the site and post.

    Sorry, fellers...you are going to have to fight this one minus me.
    Given the depth of character and ability wielded by my brethren, I will not be missed.

    You guys are great. I just got back from my meeting, found out that my link was a little screwed up, and like the fine patriots you are, you fixed the problem and carried on with out blinking an eye.

    Here's to you all! Cheers! and God Bless!

    Welcome, and good luck, I really doubt it's useful. You can't make someone change their mind without their mind first being able to accept the change and their character to be able to accept being wrong. Virtually impossible.

    Agreed in large part Rock, but it sure is fun to drop a steaming turd into the punch bowl, now and again.[:o)]

    Lt496,

    I have grown extremely weary of doing it on the Internet, I prefer face to face communication and so far (yes, I am bragging) I have had somewhat high percentage success rate of convincing people to reconsider socialist-democratic liberal indoctrination and try to understand the other side. Too bad I don't get reimbursed for the literature I have given away, but hopefully it won't sit on one's shelf and will find its way to someone else's hands.

    I think it's getting a bit easier though to turn people away from the dark side given the amount of concrete data and indisputable facts of all the deeds of Democrats and liberals in general in the last hundred years or so. Maybe after the Super New Deal, that we are about to experience, people's eyes will open somewhat. One can only hope at this point.

    Yeah Rock, it does wear on you.

    I have (had) a small library of books and other material that makes the 'individual liberty' point. Most is on-loan and has been for some time, to various friends and acquaintances. This is normally followed by face-to-face discussion on the subject matter and related to current events.

    I also find that method far more effective than the internet wars, but damn it, I still have a bit of fun doing this and well, occasionally one reaches through to somebody. Besides, it is nice to exchange ideas with similar-minded folks.

    For me, it brings home the realization that those with similar outlook, are not as rare as I once thought.

    I also think a few eyes will open after the 'real festivities' begin soon.

    One can only hope and we shall see.

    On a side note, I know you have been at odds with some of us, but I have had a clear picture of where you were coming from all along, I think.[;)] That is why no flack from me in the recent skirmishes.

    I am glad that we agree. I really have nothing to add here.

    Ye, JP;
    Before he cut it, there was a rather...strange...word in there.... I studied it for a time...then filed the whole post in the place I put such stuf...file 13.


    One would think that if a thread was of no interest, that one would skip it, rather than posting a rather bizarre reply to what obviously is a thread not intended for one.

    A jealous, hanger-on perhaps, who knows that he can't "meet the grade"?

    Go figure.....

    And yet on another side note: do you have any literature recommendations besides the obvious authors like Paine, Jefferson, Franklin, etc.? I used to maintain a list of a books I compiled for this kind of stuff, just gotta pull it from an old harddrive.

    You all are excellent. I know, that sometimes it feels like we are fighting a losing battle, but just maybe someone, who isn't posting, but who is reading the garbage posted by others, will get what we are saying. I suppose I am a optimist. I feel someone out there has changed their views through our education.

    Thank again. Your the best.
