The Big Day, Or The Last Day
The enemy is at the gates. Now is the time. Live free or die.
This is America. We are Americans. May it always be so.
There is a chance. We can dodge this bullet. I can't do it alone. None of us can. But with faith in our holy Father, we can do it together.
There are dark days ahead no matter who wins after tomorrow. But pray, and pray hard, that we will not be led into a darkness greater than we dare imagine. When you wake up tomorrow, dedicate the day to this hope, and your vote will become your prayer.
And if we fail tomorrow, let us not fail in the greater fight to come.

I don't know that they're "at the gates". More like out on the hillsides, as in the movie Zulu. They're coming though.
Not to worry. We have all of the real weapons, and the know-how.

When they are through with the four years, there won't be much left to save.
But, we must work to take back the Senate and the House in two and send the message loud and clear this time.
If only Newt could have kept his zipper up...

BTW, Annie, if you think tomorrow is going to be ugly, just wait for Saturday evening, round about 6:30 when the second half begins.
Fight On!!

Hi girl,
hey if it don't go our way don't be discouraged.
The Dems will get their twenty year spell to screw things up, then the public will remember why they don't like liberals.

We can now go back to hating McCain for all the times he's stabbed us in the back. We must now work to find true conservatives to support and get rid of RINOs wherever they appear. I, for one, have never forgotten how badly McCain sucks. We have two years to fight to swing the Senate and the House back in our favor. It shouldn't be too difficult with these asshats in command.
Doesn't Anybody Know History?
What the fuck is this shit?!
A Civilian National Security Force?! Let me repeat my question. Does anybody know fucking History?! At all? If so, does the idea of a Civilian National Security Force scare the shit out of you? It should. Think about it. One party about to assume control of all three branches of government, then suddenly we need a "Civilian National Security Force."
Does that remind you of anything? Two letters maybe?
In somewhat related news, today I got some of these:

Seems pretty hopeless. Which, if you think about it makes sense. All that Hope that Obama is generating has to come from somewhere. And it's being derived from the Hope that conservatives once had. He's like a Hope leech.
In other news, I can now die happy. That is one perfectly proportioned pooper*.
*I'm sorry, I couldn't not say anything!

I hope you didn't waste those hollow-points at the range. You might also consider picking up a nice 12 gauge, and an SKS for around the house.

Annie:
I commend to your readers a piece by Doug Giles entitled "Young Undecideds Who Love Guns Vote Your Glock"...
Here's the link.

Thanks for the reminder, Shelly.
Besides worrying about some RINO douchebag re-introducing the Assault Weapons Ban, we might have to contend with a tripartite liberal super-majority outlawing ALL semi-automatic firearms. At this rate, if things go their luddite way, we won't even be allowed to own a friggin' M1 Garand anymore.
I just hope Springfield Armory and Bushmaster survive the coming industrial purge.

6Civillian National Security Force?? Da hell??...
And they call the GOP intrusive?
That reminds me too much of Cuba, and the neighborhood Comite de Defensa de la Revolucion "informants".
"Apart from formal organizations created by the government, the network of informants also has a significant impact on the lives of Cubans. A physical education teacher in Havana said that "not only these organizations, but the people themselves" are a powerful group. Neighbors watch each other and report to authorities. He added, "Fidel has created such a [complex] system, that we cannot trust each other. For instance, State Security tells me that I am their persona de confianza and that I should watch my neighbor and report on him. At the same time they tell my neighbor that he is their persona de confianza and he should watch me and report to the police." "http://www.freedomhouse.org/template.cfm?page=384&key=126&parent=11&report=69
There had better be a loud, negative reaction to this. What people overemote about in regards to their projections upon Department of Homeland Security and the Patriot Act is actually embodied in this idea.

Oh, Annika, I'm so sorry but I am going to have to turn your blog in for this post. Look...I like you, we go way back, you apologize, swear an oath to Obama and I'll let this one slide. But act quickly, I may not be able to intervene on your behalf after Wednesday.

A Canadian Discusses Anti-Americanism After Obama
They didn't like us before Bush, and they still won't like us after Obama. Sure, there will be a honeymoon period, just like with all presidents. But after Biden's international crisis hits, and Obama does that thing that Biden warns will cause their poll numbers to drop, we'll be back to the good ole days of the "great satan," (an epithet that was coined, lest we forget, during the Carter administration).

Honeymoon? If we're the bride, I hope there aren't any "Lavender Automobiles" in the Obama motorcade at the upcoming week's riot gun wedding.
FYI, Skippy was the one that directed me to Velociman.

Sure Cas... but after you run outta dollar bills, things'll change. Oh, yeah, they'll change.

Look, about foreign anti-americanism: So many people make it out to be about who's in the administration (read: Bush, Bush Sr., Reagan...) at the time, but we have to remember that it was every bit as hostile under Clinton and Carter. This whole "Obama will heal the world's opinion of America" is just bunk. And yes, I've heard that exact sentiment uttered.
