That is what has to happen in this Orwellian world-words will enslave us while seeming to set us free. Nothing means anything anymore. Destruction of values: ultimate goal of all liberals

Read this quote by Science Fiction Writer Robert Heinlein:

"The America of my time line is a laboratory example of what can happen to democracies, what has eventually happened to all perfect democracies throughout all histories. A perfect democracy, a ‘warm body’ democracy in which every adult may vote and all votes count equally, has no internal feedback for self-correction. It depends solely on the wisdom and self-restraint of citizens… which is opposed by the folly and lack of self-restraint of other citizens. What is supposed to happen in a democracy is that each sovereign citizen will always vote in the public interest for the safety and welfare of all. But what does happen is that he votes his own self-interest as he sees it… which for the majority translates as ‘Bread and Circuses.’

‘Bread and Circuses’ is the cancer of democracy, the fatal disease for which there is no cure. Democracy often works beautifully at first. But once a state extends the franchise to every warm body, be he producer or parasite, that day marks the beginning of the end of the state. For when the plebs discover that they can vote themselves bread and circuses without limit and that the productive members of the body politic cannot stop them, they will do so, until the state bleeds to death, or in its weakened condition the state succumbs to an invader—the barbarians enter Rome.

We must be very cautious to promote revolution right now. The greatest danger we could voluntarily put ourselves in at this moment, more dangerous even than Barrack Obama and the specter of Socialism, is a society of mob rule. We are the moral party for a reason, and let us not forget that! Open disregard and mob destruction, like what you are seeing now at the G20, are antithetical to the very ideals we state that we are protesting for.

Though the nation is sick and corrupt, it still exists. There are still legal ways to petition our concerns without trampling upon the law. The day that this country finally destroys individual rights is the day that the law will become null and void. But until that moment, we must defend the law, for it is the law of our nation and the Constitution that is most under attack right now, and is in the most need of saving.

I always suggest being as positive as possible. Distance yourself from the G20 Anarchist who are only against things, but never for them.

The best way we can get our message across is to stand closely to our values and to make our values loud and clear. Make signs or T-Shirts displaying what you advocate, what you value, what your principles are. I think this will also set a good example for your son, as our youth culture today worships nihilism and anarchism.

What are you guys doing to prepare for the great, unthinkable "if" of our country slithering away into a fasco-socialist state?

I don't ask this to be an alarmist or anything, but speaking pragmatically, just to see what will be necessary for our tv-dinner and iPod society to survive if the clock were turned back a few hundred years.

I have sent quite a few letters to Senators, but only receive back standardized letters. Does anybody know if these people even get/read what we are sending them?

Or is the point to just bombard them with so many letters that they "get the message"? If it is the latter, I suggest that we start organized letter writing, and direct our efforts to all send letters of protest to a single politician, on a single day, so that the mass of mail that they get will hopefully make our point stronger.

Do everyone a favor. If you find anything from ACORN, or anybody handing out things/trying to get people to sign things, take it out of their hands and rip it up. Destroy it, and help get rid of their vile slime and corruption.

Do you really think that we should be splitting at such a precarious time? Would not the better idea be to unite with as many as we can, and get as much strength on our side as possible, and then do the "cleansing" of the party afterwards? (note: I mean nothing violent by the term "cleansing").

I wish that the American people would finally embrace the freedom won for them time and time again by the blood and the sacrifice of those important individuals who lost their lives in all of our wars. For far too long we have taken our freedom for granted and are now voluntarily surrendering our sovereignty for the slavery of paternal government. Have two hundred years not taught us that freedom is an active process in the daily life of each and every individual? Are we so opulent and slovenly to assume that our tower-in-the-sky utopia cannot exist unless we enslave more people, via taxes and regulations, to our dreams of the unattainable? Wake up America! Remember the words of St. Augustine, who commented on the fall of Rome:

"Rome was founded and extended by the labors of those men of old; their descendants made Rome more hideous while it stood than when it fell. For in the ruin of the city it was stone and timber which fell to the ground; but in the lives of those Romans we saw the collapse not of material but of moral defenses, not of material but of spiritual grandeur. The lust that burned in their hearts was more deadly than the flame which consumed their dwellings."
