We Have To Quit Being Civil & Respectful To These GOP Pricks. They Won't Listen. [View all]

If we have to be publicly mean to them to get their their attention so be it. Resistance is not enough. Defiance and political combat will be necessary in the end. Their true agenda is now boldly out in the open. Unless we become combative and challenge them personally they will run over us.

And we have to go after the press to do their job.

Standing by will no longer be possible because they will dismantle the country.
