The GOP Establishment and the Reckoning

I recall that scene in Tombstone, where Val Kilmer says "It's not Revenge he wants. It's a Reckoning."

That's what the Tea Party is about. That's what the anybody-but-Romney crowd is about. I dare say that's what your post was about.

So if Romney gets the nomination, when comes the Reckoning? Because come it will.
People are fixated on get Obama out of office at all cost. They're missing the Reckoning:



And so we come yet again to the stupidity and short sightedness of the Elites. Do they really not see the Reckoning, after the rallies and election of 2010? Really? If they really ram Slick Willard down everyone's throats, do they not inflame this feeling, rather than tamping it down.

  1. I think we've come to the point that the good people of America are no longer gonna just roll over and let "the party" make all the decisions.

    People aren't going to forget what is going on today.

    We got lazy and allowed the party too much power. Hopefully we have woken up and won't allow it to happen again.

    They aren't taking us seriously. They still believe that they are the ruling class and that they have all the power.

    I'm afraid that it's gonna get ugly. We are very, very close to the tipping point. This is probably the very last chance to correct the wrongs that ail this country.

    Tick Tock, Tick Tock...

  2. I only hope it is not too late but I am afraid we have already begun the slide to an inevitable confrontation with the Powers that Be. As for the masses I am afraid that most of them will be sitting dumb founded asking what happened after the fact. As to a Reckoning sometimes it comes in this world as well as the next...

  3. Obama and crowd are gleefully looking at the destruction of the RINO party.

  4. Well let them enjoy their moment in time because they may just not be so pleased with what rises from the ashes of its destruction.

    "We have held the subject up in every light of which it is capable; but it has been all in vain. Shall we resort to entreaty and humble supplication? What terms shall we find which have not been already exhausted? Let us not, I beseech you, sir, deceive ourselves longer.

    Sir, we have done everything that could be done to avert the storm which is now coming on. We have petitioned; we have remonstrated; we have supplicated; we have prostrated ourselves before the throne, and have implored its interposition to arrest the tyrannical hands of the ministry and Parliament.

    Our petitions have been slighted; our remonstrances have produced additional violence and insult; our supplications have been disregarded; and we have been spurned, with contempt, from the foot of the throne. In vain, after these things, may we indulge the fond hope of peace and reconciliation. There is no longer any room for hope.

    If we wish to be free -- if we mean to preserve inviolate those inestimable privileges for which we have been so long contending -- if we mean not basely to abandon the noble struggle in which we have been so long engaged, and which we have pledged ourselves never to abandon until the glorious object of our contest shall be obtained, we must fight! I repeat it, sir, we must fight! An appeal to arms and to the God of Hosts is all that is left us!" Patrick Henry
