    My feelings are that we need a to impose term limits on every political office. That is the only way we are going to take back any political party. The establishment politicians have a lock on those seats. Most have been there for so long that they think they own it and don't have to listen to the citizens. Term limits would go a long way to getting rid of the ash and trash quickly.

    Hey arrow, If you get a sex-bot for yourself you might want to include your bot in your will. Lawyers are looking at these kinds of issues now. Don't abuse your sex-bot, you could end up in jail. Will you be able to rent out your sex-bot? Who will be the first sex-bot pimp?

    Corporations are trying to gather all of the open pollinated seeds (food seeds) and shelve them. Open pollinated is the ability to produce from the previous years crop of seed. Hybrids will not produce viable seed. The corporations want these Hybrids to replace the old open pollinated varieties, thus insuring them a toal control of market and food supply.

    No, it's a tactic that the Democrats brought into the party when the Southern Democrats invaded because they lost the battle of segregation.

    I would not call them thick-headed morons in their presence. And it's immigration, not war, that earns them that moniker in my book.

    Here's an example of a conversation I had with a "republican."

    Me: Too much cheap labor avialable.

    Him: If labor costs were higher my business would close.

    Me: That's how the free market works.

    Him: Making sandwiches is not worth $12.00 an hour.

    Me: That's not supposed to be entirely your decision. The workers make their best deals, and sometimes that includes benefits too.

    Him: No way am I paying benefits!

    Me: That's fine, but if the workers can find a job that does, they'll migrate there.

    Him: They're not worth that much!

    Me: Then you have to either find ways to increase efficiency or reduce costs in other areas, or fail.

    Him: No way - we just need more minimum wage workers!

    I'd much rather repeal the 17th Amendment. That took the right of the state legislature to appoint their 2 Senators and gave it to the people.

    We'd be better balanced if the system was constructed as designed: The people are represented in the House, and the Senators represents the State.

    Great point AngelaTC! I like that idea too. Ofcourse that places more power back into the hands of states.

    I don't know if you're aware of it, but this has already been introduced.

    They pass these little laws incrementally, knowing that most of us are so apathetic that we're not likely to get involved even if it is something that interests us. We're certainly not going to get all fired up about them taking away somebody else's rights.

    HUH? Sex-bots? What does this have to do with people taking their country back, from a political party?

    Roundabout, I agree that not all American ways are warmly received. Our basic problem, from a political party standpoint is that a good number of voters are sold down the river for a voting block, which is not interested in OUR form of Governing. Case in point, Republicans who will not stand for "upsetting" the Hispanic vote, and selling out Americans (McCain-Kennedy), and Democrats who continue to allow LULAC a platform from which to proselytize, or even hinting that Health care will be "Mandatory" (Hillary and Barack).
    As far as Islam goes, the ultimate goal of radical Islamists is to implement Sharia law and force all to abide by it. Rest assured, most people in Islam are peace loving folks, but, even within their ranks, are those who wish to implement an Islamic state.

    The question now becomes will the American people stand up to say "NO WAY!!!!" To enemies foreign AND domestic. This partially was the impetus for my question, due to the fact that there are some who say that we, as a nation will never cease to exist but the actions required for a return to the Constitution, and a Republic, seem to be non-existent. Further, how does one undo 50 years of Socialism seen as Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, etc and make it truly fair and equitable for all?
