November is Coming

Where do you stand?

Normally at RedState we post a brief description of any videos we post. But this one … you just have to watch it.

November. It’s coming.

Video created and produced by Ben Howe.

    Sorry, had to throw that in. I read a huge amount on Versailles in high school & college, did my college senior thesis on his intervention in the Russian Revolution, requiring me to spend endless weary hours in the library with his presidential papers. What a feckless racist SOB.

    • aesthete

      that was genuinely good or American? While we’re on the topic, let’s reserve some hatred for Oscar Wendell Holmes of sterilization supporting “three generations of imbeciles are enough” and “fire in a crowded theater” jailing of political protestors fame. And of course some scorn should be heaped on William Jennings Bryan: one of the first actual bottom-of-the-barrel populist “there should be law” progressives.

    • JoeG

      Unless it is was under Wilson. Wilson jailed many anti-war people for sedition, most for decades.

    • hardwired

      Woodrow Wilson signed the Federal Reserve Act, which puts all of our country’s wealth in the hands of a few big banks.

    Tell Ben it moved me, like it did for everyone else.

    I posted it here.

    Hopefully, it’ll stay on the frontpage, top right in the headlines throughout most of the day. :)

    God bless America.

    You and I have a rendezvous with destiny. We will preserve for our children this, the last best hope of man on earth, or we will sentence them to take the first step into a thousand years of darkness.

    If we fail, at least let our children and our children’s children say of us we justified our brief moment here. We did all that could be done.

    This is the challenge and the responsibility that 46 years later has now fallen to us

    Whoever makes these things does fantastic work. Kudos!

    With the Constitution.

    November is only the beginning; if we want to return the U.S. to the original intent of the Founders we cannot afford to ever again forget them.

  • Mary Beth

    …and that rendezvous includes not just winning here in 2010… but obliterating.

    The task that is upon us now is not just to win more seats than “the other guys”…but to give them a spanking so bad that they walk away from the field, beaten, battered, demoralized…defeated both body and soul.

    That rendezvous includes us continuing this into 2012… by electing more Constitutional Conservatives to the House and Senate and of course the White House…

    …and then BEYOND. We MUST see our task as one that will not end with a new President. We must understand that we have decades and DECADES of both Democrat and Republican policies and programs and agencies…statist policies and programs and agencies… that MUST be defunded, dismantled and thrown to the ash heap of history.

    Our rendezvous with destiny is to return our government to its Constitutional limits and to restore the power back to the people.

    This is not a two year task. This is not a four year task.

    This is a war for the very soul of our Republic. And just as we must win the global war on terror against the Islamofascists who wish to destroy us from without…we must win the war against the totalitarian statists who wish to destroy us from within.

    This is not just an UNDO of 2008.

    This is the GREAT UNDO… of many decades of our neglect and many decades of their corruption.

    This November, we are sending our first major volley. This video reminds us of the history and the stakes.

    What side will you stand on?

      When can we see it in a diary of its own?

        …it would make a great diary though.

      We The People, specifically We The Conservatives cannot, as we did after Reagan, as we did after the Contract With America, go back to our lives.

      We cannot declare victory and go home again.

      We must hold the ground until we are relieved by the next generation of Conservatives.

        We, you and me, must train them to counter what they are being taught, from as young as three years old now, paid with tax monies, no less, that the truth is not the yearnings of the “Grasshopper” (“Kung Fu” anyone? Their subtle misdirection is everywhere.), rather, it is in the pragmatism of the ant. That despite the wonderful sounding phrases of the left, we cannot afford to give away the store in order to feel compassionate about ourselves. As I put it: “That was a slap on the “axx” [posterior] the doctor gave us when we were born – not a guarantee”.

        • realvoice2010

          Myron_J…You are right on. Our educational (leftist propaganda) system must be radically changed, but we should not wait for a generation to start those changes. One way is to attack the teacher’s unions (not necessarily all teachers, but some of them follow the “party line” and I don’t just mean the democratic party). Yes, we have let this abomination happen to us, particularly since the 60′s, when our youth started to follow the phony flower power philosophy and radical lefttism of the hippie “culture”.
          Thanks to you Myron, for bringing the good shaolin sayings to red staters. Folks just google “grasshopper kung fu” and you’ll see what I mean”.

          • realvoice2010

            Myron_J….I apologize for recommending the shaolin sayings. Upon a second reading of the text of those sayings, I see the “subtle misdirection” you referred to. This kind of thought is not recommended.

    Outstanding.

    • throwback59

      This is like a trailer to a blockbuster thriller. Too bad “Independence Day” is already taken.

  • shaitra

    I’m just sitting here grinning after watching that awesome video. Well Done!

      And tingles running up my leg. Fantastic work!!!

  • boats48

    That said it all! There’s nothing left to add! Extremely well done video!

  • JoeG

    I’m not sure how he would fit in all of this, but he is a former RINO who now is out.

    Just loved it. Going to have to steal a high def version of that to keep on my iphone.

  • zollistar

    …it made it clear that we hold REPUBLICANS who vote to increase the size and reach of government just as accountable as we hold any Democrat.

    In short, we understand the meaning of our constitution and insist that our elected officials either know that meaning or learn it and, most important, VOTE ACCORDINGLY.

    We’re not trying to populate the House and Senate with individuals simply because they sport the letter “R” behind their names.

    Saw this over at Townhall. Way to go!

    Congrats Ben! This really is going to go truly viral.

    Well done!

  • joayn

    I just watched it at Ace and had to get over here and say, THANK YOU! It is freakin’ superbly unbelieveable. Ronald Reagan – he would be proud.

  • pragmatic

    The sleeping giant part reminded me of Admiral Yamamoto’s quote after Pearl Harbor. “We have awakened a sleeping giant and have instilled in him a terrible resolve”. He understood the resolve and abilities of the American people, having been some sort of attache in DC, and correctly predicted that the might of America and her people would rise against their quest for power. It’s happening again. We are wide awake and our resolve is strengthening every day.
