"There's a common thread held by the viewers and the listeners
of those I've named. And it's not Sean Hannity's, or Rush's
extremist Republican bias that I want to draw on, it's the
underlying common thread of their listeners and viewers.

And that common thread is the simple basic values that this
country was built upon. And those core values, like clinging
to our God, and our guns, are under attack.

As is sound money, capitalism, free markets, our legislative
process, and our most basic rights like free speech and privacy."

OK I see your point. And I think it is a good idea to hone in on the core values that have made America great.

I just don't believe you that it can be taken for granted that Rush or Hannity et al's listeners share those values. I think the one thing they for sure share is an appetite for extreme polemics. I see the Rush's of the world who have held the soapbox for the last decade as the abetters and enablers of the rush to centralized power. If they are to take a stand it is because their political masters will tell them to do it, not because it is the right thing for the country. In other words they are in a different camp and it is wishful thinking on your part to think they will resonate with your cause. Just my opinion.

I appreciate the links to informative videos etc. I am downloading them and will watch them when I can. The soviet thing is already down on utube but available on bit torrent.
