The media described them as Peons, Nuts and the Amateur Hour. They also called them "Astro Turf and "the Plucky Little Guerrilla Group" but in the end the brought down two sitting Senators in the State of Colorado. In a battle that was brought on by Democrats who believe they do not have to listen or should be accountable to their constituents, the outside forces descended to squash the Peons. The usual straw man, the NRA was maligned again to try to beat back the peasants from the fields. The Peons and Nuts were, in the end, the Democrats and their fellow travelers. What they do not understand is that the NRA garners their strength from membership fees of all of those "peons and nuts". Every time a Democrat opens his/her mouth to attempt to demonize the NRA they are insulting millions upon millions of rubes that believe in their right to bear arms.
The Democrats were nervous. They had poured massive amounts of money into the State to defeat this band of brothers and sisters united. They brought in Obama's ground team to go door to door to defeat this tidal wave of discontent. Then at the 12th hour they brought in Grandpa Clinton himself to appeal to sway them out of their need to keep the 2nd Amendment in tact. The Amateur Democrats don't learn from history. When Clinton passed the "assault weapons ban" during his Presidency, the lost the House.
When Democrats use a State statute to enact a recall it is because they did not agree with the peons and nuts that elected the Wisconsin Governor. When peons and nuts take this playbook page from the Democrats and are successful it must be fraud. Hopefully, this will be a litmus test for the nation. I do not think the Democrats will learn from this eventful night, but perhaps those who see the Democrats and loons and goons will rise up and use the levers of Democracy for what our founders intended, hold our elected leaders accountable to us.
"hold our elected leaders accountable to us."
ReplyDeleteOh, weren't those the days when we actually did just that! Will we ever truly see those days again? I sure hope so, but I don't think I will try to hold my breath that long.
Of course we will "see those days" again. We just did in Colorado. We saw in 2010 midterm landslide. We will see it again. Average people doing extraordinary things. Like the bikers who descended on the Washington DC mall to counter the Muslim defacement of 9/11 symbolism. The DC insiders denied their permit after approving the Muslims theirs. So, instead the rubes got on their hogs (no disrespect intended toward Muslims fear of pork) and rode into town anyway. Imagine thousands of Harley's drowning out any chanting by the opposition.
