I believe most Americans are fairly patriotic and decent people. Most – like 51%. From the majority of Liberals that I have talked to they are actually quite Conservative and vote Democrat because that is what their parents did and what they always have. Ignorant is a good word to describe them and it is not being mean it is just reality. They simply have not taken the interest nor the time to become educated on the issues.
I do wonder sometimes…..
Why isn’t the Democrat Party the party of the Constitution?
Why isn’t the Democrat Party the party for enforcing laws?
Why isn’t the Democrat Party the party of freedom?
Why isn’t the Democrat Party the party protecting ALL people – not just those here illegally or the member of some socioeconomic class?
Why isn’t the Democrat Party the party that cheers God rather than booing God?
Why isn’t the Democrat Party the party that holds the American flag up high and proud – rather than burning it over a variety of issues?
“For the first time in my adult lifetime, I am really proud of my country. And not just because Barack has done well, but because I think people are hungry for change.” — Michelle Obama
“While the rest of the country waves the flag of Americana, we understand we are not part of that. We don’t owe America anything – America owes us.” — Al Sharpton

George Soros, the 87-year-old pioneer of hedge-fund investing, has turned over nearly $18 billion to Open Society Foundations, a move that transforms both the philanthropy he founded and the investment firm supplying its wealth.
Regarding Soros’s mission here is a list of value’s direct from his charitable organization’s website. I see tremendous hypocrisy within these statements of value:
Our Values
We believe in fundamental human rights, dignity, and the rule of law.
We believe in a society where all people are free to participate fully in civic, economic, and cultural life.
We believe in addressing inequalities that cut across multiple lines, including race, class, gender, sexual orientation, and citizenship.
We believe in holding those in power accountable for their actions and in increasing the power of historically excluded groups.
We believe in helping people and communities press for change on their own behalf.
We believe in responding quickly and flexibly to the most critical threats to open society.
We believe in taking on controversial issues and supporting bold, innovative solutions that address root causes and advance systemic change.
We believe in encouraging critical debate and respecting diverse opinions.
While the MSM and a variety of government and non-government entities investigate on how Russia supposedly corrupted the Presidential election, Soros and others are working to literally control upcoming elections as well as brainwash millions across America and the world.
I hear crickets from so-called journalists.

YouTube is now banning video’s that show modifications to firearms. This isn’t a 1st Amendment issue as they can do whatever they want. It’s simply an anti-gun, Progressive, anti-Constitution and anti-Patriot issue. Just another piece of the puzzle that when all put together shows a picture of the Progressive Agenda changing America.
This, ladies and gentlemen – and GG58 – is why I think there will be an American Reformation. The division between what is so obviously right to many of us – and what is so obviously wrong to the others – is going to keep growing.

I just came across this ammo box storage set. While I prefer steel ammo cans this looks very handy for range time and ammo organization. Might have to check out one of these MTM Ammo Crates.

I have no problem with either the name or the concept.. as I suggested it for the same reasons.. We do not wish to reclaim what we had, as that is how we got here… rather, we wish to reclaim the constitution as it is intended other than it was allowed to be transformed and meant in modern terms… bent to political expediency.
I also do not wish it to be only conservative, but to tolerate the dissimilarity of ideas, and the civil discourse to allow some end that promotes the common good of the majority of views, and not the verbal and well funded minority. A hybrid of ideas, that is stronger and not only a weakened consensus of lesser qualities.
Elder values, allowing for modern sensibilities, and the ability to reclaim anything that is not functioning as planned is needed. A small government that provides only as originally intended, with the freedom to pursue life, liberty and happiness as we see fit in a free market.
GG58
GG58, I agree.
Interesting topic today. I agree 100% with everything you wrote Rourke. That in itself and the comments here IMO, are a fine example of what a constitutional believing conservative represents. However, here is where the conflict lies and “the fight” given takes place, given by my Political Science teacher in college, trying to explain separation of church and state even though it’s not in the Constitution.
Teacher: Asks class if they have a problem with the Ten Commandments on the wall behind the judge in court?
Me: I honestly spoke up and said no.
Teacher: Okay, what if a Muslim judge takes a position in the same court, takes down the Ten Commandments, and replaces them with something with from the koran?
Me: Honestly responded again. Yes, I would have a problem with it.
Teacher: Well then would it be fair enough to Not put either one of them on the wall and keep things neutral?
Me: I responded. Yes, even though this nation, with it’s founders/peoples imperfections, was found as a Christian nation.
End of example and here is where the fight takes place.
When you take down the Ten Commandments, refuse to put them back up, But DO allow any other religion to put their religious preference on the wall, and refuse to take them down. This, my friend is why the fight is taking place and will continue to do so. Even evil Soro’s statement of values, (laugh) are not followed. Otherwise, his organization would be addressing the blatant crooked biased media and organizations.
Definition of hypocrite
1 :a person who puts on a false appearance of virtue or religion
2 :a person who acts in contradiction to his or her stated beliefs or feelings
Everything GoingGray58 said, IMO is correct. However, when your playing by the rules of values, respect, and the other people aren’t. The process of common decency or respect of other people, regardless of their life choices, will not happen. And of course as all of us know, the extremely dangerous path of selling American into communism/slavery. We are dealing with insanely evil people. Eventually, unless we can affect positive change, it will get to a point where some kind of action one way or another Must take place to affect change.
Not necessarily democrats or republicans in so much they are being complicit and allowing things to happen, because they think it doesn’t affect them. The people we are dealing with in them media, Antifa and the likes, are evil and are insane beyond the shadow of a doubt.
(Insanity. n. mental illness of such a severe nature that a person cannot distinguish fantasy from reality, cannot conduct her/his affairs due to psychosis, or is subject to uncontrollable impulsive behavior.)
The price of freedom does come at a cost. Those before us, sacrificed more than always just giving their life. There are others that lived their life in abject poverty as a result of fighting for such freedom.
A Free people ought not be only armed and disciplined, but they should have sufficient arms and ammunition to maintain the status of independence from any who might attempt to abuse them, which would include their own Government.

Well put Rourke and GG58 and Capt. Michaels-
During the 60s ( this is when I believe the liberal educators became the majority)
students who wanted to avoid the draft studied education and became teachers.I was a student at this time on a college campus. Then the very left wing liberals (who would look mild compared to todays ) SDS , Black Panthers) etc. took advantage of the youth and infiltrated
these organizations.
Al Sharpton is truly disgusting and wrong.
The only true American people that deserve an apology and assistance are the Native American living in poverty without electric or running water .Lightning
