Join the Resistance

I spend a lot of time in the vehicle. And while I love music and listen to a LOT of it, I frequently need a change. So I kick on the AM radio and listen to conservative talk radio.

My station of choice is 560 WIND out of Chicago. The morning starts with John Howell and Cisco Codo-who are local hosts and talk about Illinois and Chicago politics, along with national stuff. Then Dennis Miller is live for 3 hours, then 2 hours of Mike Gallagher, and finally 3 hours of Michael Medved takes me till 5:00. After 5, the station get too staticy to be able to listen. I have even bee known to listen to these guys via internet streaming radio while at my desk.

Anyway, Mike Gallagher (who is probably my favorite of the 3 syndicated shows) has been running adds about joining the resistance. Grassfire.org has an online petition they are collecting signatures on to present to President-Elect Obama.

The Resistance States:
As an American citizen, while I will show respect to President-elect Obama, I oppose the far-Left and socialistic elements that comprise the centerpiece of his agenda. I recognize that it will take a patriotic and resilient Citizen Resistance to block implementation of this agenda and I join with others who oppose these threats to our liberties.

Specifically, I Resist:

Socialistic wealth redistribution including any and all tax increases and big-government welfare programs. Silencing conservatives through the Fairness Doctrine and other efforts that restrict free speech.
Open border anarchy including amnesty for illegal aliens and promotion of multi-nation “unions”. Government-run health care that weakens our system and imposes more tax burdens on citizens.
Weakening of our military through rapid pullback from Iraq, defunding our troops and overall disarmament. Social liberalism including radical pro-abortion agenda, the end of marriage and the homosexual agenda.
Liberal court activism that undermines faith, family and liberties while expanding government control. Post-American globalismthat diminishes our global role and threatens our national sovereignty.
Environmental extremism, the CO2 tax,
undermining coal and nuclear, and bans on
exploration.
Weakening the 2nd Amendment through unconstitutional gun laws that take away or penalize us for owning firearms and our right to defend our family, our property, and ourselves.
I signed the petition. I hope you will, too. Go to www.resistnow.com and sign and share with your friends.
