Non-Liberals Need To Stand Up For Themselves

The majority of the online community of conservatives has lost all drive, compassion, and respect for their political party.  The online social venues are being overrun with liberals who make it a point to suppress the opinions of conservatives and libertarians.  I am sick of the quantity and quality (or lack there of) of the articles that push the liberal agenda that make the front page of these social avenues.  Two very popular avenues are digg and stumpleupon and the liberals are mobilized on both these sites.  And I will give them kudos for being passionate about something for once … they are passionate about suppressing anything that they don’t agree with.  In order to combat this and make sure our voices are heard we need direction, passion, and open minds.

We need to make it a point to help the greater good by actively participating and defending conservative and libertarian content.  You may not agree with all the conservative or libertarian opinions out there but we need to fight the bigger war here.  This country is already well on its way to a political disaster, and if we lose anymore red states we are in for a long hard fight that we are not likely to win for quite some time.

We can start by keeping open channels of communication with like minded people.  Comment on blog sites instead of the social networking sites like digg and stumble.  Continue to digg and promote the articles on the social sites in order to give them exposure.  Even if you dont agree with the content promote it so we can make our voice against the liberals heard. Develop relationships with the communities that exist in the blogosphere.  Participate in discussions on Twitter.  I welcome any suggestions and discussion on how to mobilize and give focus to the collective non-liberal community regardless of individual political opinion.  There will be more in depth articles like this to come.  Please comment below.

I Can Haz Welth?!

A few days ago Ron Paul on Bloomberg TV said in a few different words that it was immoral and unconstitutional to transfer wealth from productive to non productive members of society.

This opinion paired with the paragraph buried in Obamas Mortgage Modification Plan about forgiving second liens has got me all worked up.  Dr. Paul is absolutely correct in thinking that it’s immoral and unconstitutional to force me pay higher taxes to fix a problem I did not cause.

I live within my means, I went to college, I own a home, I pay my bills on time every month.  Sometimes I am not left with a whole lot to entertain myself with but such is life.  I’ve struggled in the past - but I NEVER asked for a handout.  I was given the same opportunities as a child that every American is given.  I went to public school where I was not forced to learn but chose to learn.  Hell … I even donate to charities and give unused household items to the salvation army to help those who are down on their luck.

The majority of mortgage fiasco has not been caused by people who are down on their luck, its been caused by ignorant citizens who over spent their means.  Evolution is centered around the concept of survival of the fittest, same concept applies here.  It is not my responsibility to bail your sorry ass out because you needed a 4800 square foot house for you and your dog, or because you needed that addition to your home for the indoor pool.  Let them all fail, teach them a lesson.  Don’t give them a clean slate, make them work for it.  Have some money stashed away for a rainy day, don’t blow your savings on that fancy 70inch flat screen to hang above your twin bed.

Failure is recoverable, you will be back on your feet with some hard work, you can even be successful if you work hard enough.  Look at Obama he failed at life and hes now the president.  Turns out he is failing at that too but that’s neither here nor there.
