We want to take America back from the socialistic forces that are consuming her. We talk about it amongst ourselves and wonder what can be done to stop the enemy that is no longer at the gate, but has assumed power. We must do all we can. I recently sent this email to someone within our movement:

We not only stand to lose our way of life, but our heritage. History is being rewritten, the Constitution shredded and our way of life potentially lost forever in our lives. I have no doubt that those of us who dare resist and stand up will be dealt with in much the same way other totalitarian regimes deal with dissenters. There is not room for dissent under such a government. Some will have to go underground. Some will go along, to get along, and some will fight to the bloody end. The winds of change blow cold across the American plain and a stout heart and mind is what is needed now. There can be no fear, no going back, only pressing forward to preserve our way of life. My father fought to establish a great country for me and my family and now I am cast into the fire, in order to do the same for generations to come. Everyone has a destiny and this is mine. I shall not shrink from my calling and shall not leave my brother to do what I must.

Do I sound passionate? I hope so, because I am. There are some simple things we can do to help in our mission, things most of us overlooked as we got madder and madder about the direction America is going. Things we should promise ourselves and each other, that we will do every day:

PUT OUT THE FLAG: Every day, not just on certain holidays. Remember what our neighborhoods looked like in the days after September 11, 2001? They should look that way all the time.

WEAR A FLAG ON YOUR LAPEL: Why not? It is still old glory and wearing it has not been outlawed yet. Show people who you are and what you value by wearing it every day.

REFUSE TO BE TOLERANT: What? You cannot do that you say. Yes you can. Tolerance is for people with no values. If I do not like your stance on abortion, I can respectfully disagree with you. I do not have to “tolerate it” and look the other way while you speak favorably about it. Freedom of speech means we can agree to disagree. It does not mean that I have to shut up because you do not like my point of view. Lord knows the liberals won’t shut up about their point of view and I don’t like it.

SAY WHAT YOU MEAN AND MEAN WHAT YOU SAY: Simply put, do not talk the talk, walk the walk. Do not complain and do nothing. Write your Senator and Representatives; call them, visit them and do not let up until they realize they work for you, not the other way around.

CONFRONT LIBERALISM: You do not have to be mean and nasty about it, but you do not have to idly sit by while someone preaches the liberal talking points to someone who is afraid to speak up. Confront them with the “W” questions: Who, What, Where, When and How. Who did you hear that from? What drives that thought? Where did you get that idea from? When did you begin to believe that? How come you think that way when the truth is so much different?

These are just a few ways to start taking back America. But, think about it, if we all did this what do you think would happen? Our neighbors would ask why we have our flags out, co-workers would ask about the lapel pins, and we would have many more opportunities to talk about conservative values and being conservative. We would also make it more comfortable for others to speak out with their values. There are more of us than there are of them and we need to show unity. Fly your flag and be proud of America.
God bless you all in your lives and struggles during these trying times.
