A Frank Exchange of Views [Updated]

"The Secret Service had better be wearing parkas on Thursday, because things are going to be absolutely icy in the Whitehouse when the two presidents pose near Mr. Bush's new portrait (a portrait which Mr. Obama fought vehemently against because it is 'oil-based')." -- Hope n' Change Cartoons

Updated with Scott M's Comment on A Frank Exchange of Views

"Ah yes, Obama had better fear that the man that never defended himself, or his side, during 8 years as POTUS will do something hostile. He might cross his legs, away from his host, while sitting for a photo-op. Or he might pretend not to hear his host while talking to another guest. I mean it could become nuclear war.
"Conservatives remind me of the well-dressed Jews in the movie Schindler's List. They keep hoping and acting as if they look like the least threatening and most rule-following of all it will keep them safe. It won't. Doing this just makes sure you are the most frequent victim and get the least respect. If the ghetto teaches us one thing, it teaches us you had better "mad dog" or be ready to fight any and all at any moment. Being nice is precisely how we have become second-class citizens in our own country. Getting approval from the other second-class victims isn't the same as defending your self or your country.
"Remember the contempt you had the first time your grade school teacher told you about the British Redcoats marching into battle in red coats, shoulder to shoulder, with no cover? Remember the anger you felt during Vietnam when our side was playing by WWII strategy and doctrine and the VC were hiding in spider holes and laying booby traps? Conservatives are fighting and losing their country because they will not recognize that the old rules no longer apply. The Left took over this country because they recognized the rules could be changed and the first one to the fight would usually win.
"Wake the Hell up and stop being the best little "Jew" at the trains station. Nobody but you thinks that is a way to win. You must change your comfortable ways. "Get in their face and punch back twice as hard." It's worked for decades. It will even work if we do it. But we are irrelevant until we make our opponents do things. Reaching a logical conclusion and then resuming your chores doesn't work. Listening to conservative radio hosts tell you how outraged they are isn't working. All that matters is "get in their face and punch back twice as hard." You won't be respected until you are feared, no matter how nice you tend your lawn. Action Today."

I'm reminded, once again, of Moldbug's warning that leftist tactics can't work for the right because you don't enjoy the support of the authorities. Leftist activists can break the law with impunity, you will get a long stay in federal prison.

How about GW sitting back with that insufferable smirk on his face, the smirk that says to everyone "Okay, hotshot - I ran this - let's see what you do."

And he still smirks while hotshot face-plants himself everywhere but the course that GW already ran.

"Ain't as easy as voting 'present', is it hotshot?"

I understand and agree.
It is time.

I'm looking forward to Obama in jail - with no Presidential pardon.

Start with the arrest of Holder. I swear, I SWEAR by all the bile that is boiling and raging within me, that if Romney just wants to let bygones be bygones and just move on, I will scream. We need to have mass arrests at every level of the Obama administration.
No more nice.

Jewel, Romney won't even mention Rev. Wright. Romney was like the Tasmanian Devil while running against the GOP, and now he's reverted to the normal John McCain manner of campaigning.

Everyone needs to understand every time you hear someone give advice to Romney on what he needs to do to win that is tacit recognition he isn't doing the things to break out of the GOP mold of losing like Ward Cleaver. We had a chance to nominate a fighter, and the GOP voters nominated this year's Bob Dole or John McCain. The GOP voters were warned and they pretended we've not tried the "next man in line" strategy before

Scott, I share your sentiments. However, I have seen some life in the Romney campaign recently. Yesterday, Instapundit had this rundown on Romney's Solyndra visit (http://pjmedia.com/instapundit/144079/). Of course, the MSM termed it "nasty".
