The Left won again

Let's make that win the final time.

Analyzing the win, the left won because they got their Socialist message of  "come git yo FREE shit" out better than the Romnoids got out their message of  "capitalism works, let's give it a try". This "free Shit" is the forever way that Socialism has been foisted off on nations, for the past 100 years.

The Left was better organized at the polls. As I went to bed in my Scotch fog last night, Obama had just over a 1.1 million popular vote margin, but he had over 300 electoral votes. He gamed the system and won. He got Ohio way back, three and a half years ago, by bailing out the auto industry. Free shit, he gave out government-backed auto-industry jobs for free, smiled at those auto workers and said, "remember me on November Sixth, 2012." They remembered. Romney never had a chance in Ohio.

So it went. I'm not going to sit here and moan about it. Now we have to live with the Obama agenda for the next four years.

Or do we?

Can we fight back?

Can we put some awful hurt on the Left, enough hurt to chase them back to their holes in four years?

I think we can.

Over at Say Uncle, the short but powerful post on Obama's win brought out at least one thinker, a commenter named Nevyan (at Comment #12). Nevyan proposes local action to take down the left, and he proposes how to do it legally and properly, so close those gun safes and let's follow Nevyan's system here.

After we pick a local target to "wage lawfare" on, and start gathering our information, both on suspected violations AND on the intracacies of the laws we will use, we can do one other thing.

Let's wage war on on the Left's pet system, the Green Agenda.

Instead of fighting the Green Agenda only as the left brings up new parts of it, like most of us have done, let's go offensive instead of staying defensive.

Take longer showers. Keep your lawn green in the summer, if the law allows it. Use all the water you can.

Burn all the lights in your house while you are awake on these long winter nights. Use that electricity that is there, on demand, in your wires.

We're going to deny the Left their present advantage of claiming that their conservation system works, that less is better, that composting can take the place of garbage service, etc. We're going to require them to build out the electric grid, because we are going to overload it. Rationing? Brownouts? The occasional blackout? Yep, we will have those, but who will get the blame for that? You won't. The Left will because they are in charge. Yes, it will cost you money not to conserve, but how else can you wage this kind of assymetrical war for so little money and still keep your freedom?

When the Left starts to soak up more and more of the blame for the collapsing utility infrastructure, the Government WILL be changed out, legally, properly, at the polls.

No one of us can do this alone, but in our millions, we CAN make it happen (oooooh, collectivism against the collectivists, yessss!). The Government will either yield, or they will have to become overly restrictive, and when those draconian restrictions on utility use happen, they will hurt EVERYONE, and then the Greens get blamed and get removed. At the very least, it pits the Greens against the suburban soccer moms, who also voted for the Won last night.

Take the Greens out of the fight, and conservatives have an even chance on the electoral battlefield.

The White House can be ours in 2016, but only if we wage a consistent and persistent fight. We can't win with bullets, I agree. We can win with "lawfare" (a Green tactic, BTW), and we CAN and WILL win with resistance to the Green Agenda of doing with less.

Consume your way to victory, my friends.

I didn't like the Nevyan comment. It's all about revenge. Revenge in your own town, neighborhood. It's not about any kind of achievement, either left or right. It's that mean-spirited attitude that sank your party last night. Rise from the muck, Republicans and Independent righties, and do something POSITIVE and PATRIOTIC for our country, instead of attacking the neighborhood market.

EDITOR'S NOTE: I don't see that as revenge. Since the objective of these laws is more government control over private property, sometimes for valid reasons, often not, the laws are supposed to apply equally to all properties. The fact that some of those who support the current regime use that support to expect a pass on the codes is nothing more than political corruption. As this blog sees it, political corruption ought to be opposed every time it can be discovered. Almost all the time, the property owner in violation receives a notice to remedy, and there is no fine if the remedy is applied.

As to fighting the Green Agenda using obstructionist tactics, well, I consider the entire Green Agenda an obstructionist tactic. It obstructs the use of private or personal property, and frequently, the laws are based on trumped-up claims with dubious "science" behind them.

Nope, Rivrsis, nothing I've suggested here is improper in any way. It is just a strategic reversal of tactical use.
