The end of bipartisanship - GOOD!!!
At this point we need extreme (radical?) solutions to our financial problems. Bipartisanship will not get us there. I am not interested in a compromise of the debt only going up by $400 bn per year instead of $500 bn per year.
The freshman Congressman quoted above is top notch.
Here is another good quote:

I hope good guys like Allen West can make a difference. Wish we had more like him. I hope it doesn't have to happen, but sometimes I think the only solution to saving the Republic as we know it is the one thing we've been taught to fear the most. This country is like the Titanic. While the ship sinks, the passengers are numb and the crew is fighting amongst themselves what to do. Meanwhile the ship continues to sink and the band play ons.

Nothing is going to change until the last dollar is spent, and there's no more coming in, Then and only then will the reality of the situation set in...and I don't think that day is too far off....What's happening up in WI is just the start..There's a trainwreck coming,(IMO) and it's going to make the crash of '29 look mild...

That's fine and dandy, but in congress one person doesn't make a difference.
Why people get excited by this stuff is beyond me. When you have a majority saying the same shit than I'll care.

He ain't off to a great start, supported the extension of the Patriot Act.

Most of your GD posts belong on a blog, not a technically oriented gun forum. You're preaching to the choir for the most part here and on a blog, you would have to do more analysis and discussion than you do here.
So yeah, you're overdoing it and need a blog.

Come one now, how could any freedom loving guy not support something that has the word patriot in it...
Edit: A number of tea party big shots voted yes on the reauthorization of the three provisions. :\

I'll go as far as to say that I think it's counter-intuitive for most to see the Patriot act as we do ("we" being Constitutionalist and Libertarian types). I'm outraged that they passed the extension, but I can honestly see why they might. I'm not supporting it or watering down the utter stupidity of doing so, I'm just saying that to those who haven't read or don't understand the Constitution and are more concerned with safety instead of liberty, it makes sense for them to do what they did.
Going forward, I'll personally be letting them know they won't be getting my vote again. I voted them in because they said they believed in returning our country to what the Constitution outlines. I'll be voting them out because they proved they don't.
