Yesterday, Moe wrote a short diary on activism going into 2010. It was a simple point, aim to misbehave. In that spirit I present a video done by our own Erick Brockway, with limited contributions from yours truly.
Enjoy, and consider this an open thread.
Conservatives Victorious in 2010/2012 from Erick Brockway on Vimeo.
So what are you waiting for? Download a good tune, open up windows movie maker and crank out some videos to share.

Oh YEZ.
Mike (Diary) Tuesday, January 5th at 12:53PM EST (link)First of all, Moe has awesome taste in movies. Firefly was still better, though. DVDs, people, watch the series or you don’t get the movie.
Second: Brockoway makes a pretty solid video. I especially love the fact that he’s co-opting Muse, one of the furthest-left bands out there. Srsly, one of the songs on their latest album was reputedly inspired by Zbigniew Brzezinski’s latest book.
Third, I still love Muse. When you’ve got talent oozing out of every pore, glowing from the footsteps they leave on the ground…I don’t care what your lyrics are, they’re a bloody amazing band. They haven’t had a bad album yet, and that really says something for a ProgRock band.
YEAH BABY YEAH YEAH YEAH!!!!
AceInTX (Diary) Tuesday, January 5th at 1:08PM EST (link)Brings tears to the eyes…a new fighting spirit to the heart and a will to defy this pinheaded phallic organs to the end!
Hey Barry….Not just NO! but HELL NO!!!!
Glad I was not the only one to feel a tightness in my chest.
penguin2 (Diary) Tuesday, January 5th at 1:23PM EST (link)Powerful and incredible and many other adjectives as well.
My favorite frame: the Eagle with the Bill of Rights, gets me every time.
Strange how the music has a hint of Blondie from time to time, which I am fond of.
Thanks you guys, and as you said Ace, a fighting spirit is aroused. We have our theme song for 2010/2012. Victorious indeed!!!

Rock On!
Mike Friesen (Diary) Tuesday, January 5th at 1:15PM EST (link)Thanks for the great, inspiring video montage! I am so frustrated with representatives who do not hear, leaders who do not lead, and so-called Americans who do not love this country. God bless the USA and we will take it back to be run with responsibility, morality, justice and freedom.
Best regards,

Steele Has To Go. Again.
IJB Tuesday, January 5th at 1:15PM EST (link)This is inexcusable.
This guy is not ready for Primetime. He’s got to go.
Steele has got to GO!!! he SUCKS!...
JadedByPolitics (Diary) Tuesday, January 5th at 1:20PM EST (link)How dare he beeyotch about the NRCC money and somehow relate WINNING to their pathetic funds. WE are going to WIN on the ground and in the bank accounts of Conservatives….WE don’t NEED NO STINKING NRCC!

I've been in the, "give Steele a chance camp since he won....
AceInTX (Diary) Tuesday, January 5th at 2:04PM EST (link)but when I heard what he said on Hannity this morning I ended up apologizing to my youngest son because I blurted out an expletive that he shouldn’t have heard….
This is the last straw for me…Steele is an unmitigated disaster amongst a whole gaggle of unmitigated disasters that is the Republican Leadership…he needs to go…and he needs to go soon!!!
leaving his comment aside that the Republican Party won’t take back the House this year…he also said he hadn’t been looking at polls so he couldn’t predict how the Republican Party will do this year…
Can you [b]PLEASE[/b] tell me Michael…just what the hell have you been doing that you haven’t seen the polls enough to know how we’ll do? Just what does the leader of the RNC have to do besides read the polls in individual races and decide how to allocate party funds based on those polls. Maybe…just [b]MAYBE[/b] if you concentrated on that and shut the hell up you wouldn’t be hopping around on one leg because you have your other foot in your mouth!
We’re so screwed!
Steele was on Hannity last night talking nonsense
antisocial (Diary) Tuesday, January 5th at 2:29PM EST (link)while promoting his book. He was telling us he was not sure how Republicans are going to fight. This guy needs reeducation. Maybe a Cheney or Fred slap-down.

izoneguy (Diary) Tuesday, January 5th at 1:52PM EST (link)The point cannot be made often enough: Modern liberalism, as embodied in the Obama presidency, is the defender of the status quo. And the status quo is a road to economic ruin. Political forces cannot redistribute the wealth that the economic system does not produce.
Awesome. Thanks, Aaron. I needed it. /nt

Obama was singing Christmas carols?
obamafailblog Tuesday, January 5th at 2:45PM EST (link)NYT is claiming Obama was singing Christmas carols when told of the Christmas terrorist attack.
“Mr. Obama was singing Christmas carols with his family at their secluded Hawaiian beachfront getaway on Friday when a military aide interrupted with news of an attempted terrorist attack aboard an American airliner, an aide said. Mr. Obama excused himself to get on a secure telephone line installed just for his visit in case of emergencies like this.”

REALLY? He must’ve looked ridiculous wearing sandals and shorts and singing Auld Lang Syne. Wonder if he was using a teleprompter.

gekster (Diary) Tuesday, January 5th at 5:46PM EST (link)My dog sleeps about 20 hours a day.
She has her food prepared for her.
She can eat whenever she wants, 24/7/365..
Her meals are provided at no cost to her.
She visits the Dr. once a year for her checkup, and
again during the year if any medical needs arise.
For this she pays nothing, and nothing is required of her.
She lives in a nice neighborhood in a house that is much
larger than she needs, but she is not
required to do any upkeep.
If she makes a mess, someone else cleans it up.
She has her choice of luxurious places to sleep.
She receives these accommodations absolutely free.
She is living like a queen, and has absolutely no expenses
whatsoever.
All of her costs are picked up by others who go out and earn a living
every day.
I was just thinking about all this, and suddenly it hit me like a brick
in the head,
Holy crap, my dog is a liberal democrat!
They say Republicans are for the rich, Democrats are for the poor.
If they need more voters,
then they have to make more of who they are for.
We are there in the various Tea Party groups, leaderless, but not rudderless.
We steer always toward the Constitutional principles this nation was founded upon.

I was laughing and reading it out to the family,

YouTube Open Letter to Dems: Counter Controversy
Ausonius (Diary) Tuesday, January 5th at 6:22PM EST (link)Here is the video: nicely done:
http://www.youtube.com:80/watch?v=HiyqvuTxaEs
There is a rumor going around that the counter for number of views is frozen for some reason.
Glitch or something more sinister? If they wanted to limit popularity, they would simply delete it, or so it would seem.
“Sinister” comes from Latin for the l e f t hand!
Ausonius: 310-395 A.D. Teacher, Poet, Consul, General, Farmer.
Personal Tutor to the future St. Paulinus of Nola and to young Gratian, heir to the throne during the turbulent final years of the Western Roman Empire. When his former student Gratian was assassinated, Ausonius threw up his hands and retired to his farm in Gaul. Rome was captured by barbarians 14 years after his death.

“Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.
