Well said and well understood. At some point it simply feels good to stop hitting your head against the wall.

The best way to get out of this funk is to take action. Move beyond yourself and get involved; not just with FCTP (though it's very important we re-energize out commitment and involvement) but also with a group that is dedicated to Speaking out to get the truth the media won't cover or sanitizes in an effort to help President Obama.

As most reading the Blog are veterans and family or close friends of veterans I think you will find Special Operations Speaks (SOS) to be an organization you'll want to join up with and support - -
www.specialoperationsspeaks.com

SOS was initially started by a small group of Retired and Honorary Discharged Operators from the Navy SEALs, Air Force Air Commandos, Army Special Forces and Marine Force Recon and Special Ops Command. To our knowledge this is the first time all four Branches have come together to work for a common mission - the complete and utter defeat of President Obama.

We initially grew by tapping into the thousands of Special Operations warriors and have recently been registering Veterans, their families and friends and now have begun adding supporters with no military background who share our passion for "Speaking Out and Speaking the Truth" as to why Obama is Unfit for the Office, Unfit for Command and why he must be defeated.
In just under 1 month we've enjoyed the support of just over 700,000 people and need to surpass 1 million to be seen as a serious source by the media and by the Political Parties. If after reading what's on the site now (the first draft with a new one in development) and want to join the fight at a national and local level then please register.

SOS will begin speaking out within the next few days. As part of the team you can then become a valuable resource for the FCTP and regain your enthusiasm and energy to rejoin the battle.

Tom - I think we all have fought so hard on all fronts - city, state and federal - but we are feeling a new surge of energy to ensure the November election is a positive one for our country.

Thanks for your comments and your hard work for FCTP, Jacksonville, Florida and the USA!

Fortunately, energy and activity is not displayed on an even keel and this last year has been a manifestation of that oscillation. We are starting on the up side now which will peek with the election that is coming up in November. We all need some inspiration and I have a strong feeling that the great surge is coming between now and the November election. We need dedicated leaders to step forward. As for me, I promise to cover my precinct here in Arlington in these coming four months. I will make a difference by contacting as many of the Republicans and Independents as possible during that time. I will get as many citizens registered and active as possible that will support Mitt Romney and other Conservatives.

I have a friend who is returning to Afghanistan for the fifth time. That makes me weary.He has a daughter who will be 19 upon his return, counting call up he will have missed 6 years of her life. That makes me weary.

Being involved in one's community should not make anyone weary, it should revitalize. It is the minimum price of admission. The more you give the more you get. Always has, always will. Now if you are expecting something back, or expect someone else to do the heavy lifting, then you lose.

This should be joyful. That it is less than that it is because of partisan bickering. The end result should be a better country, no matter the outcome of an election.

This movement has brought together so many people from such a wide swatch of society.  If not for the current president, our paths may never have crossed.  The journey has not been short on its frustrations, challenges, as well as victories and the combination of very strong willed individuals and circumstances has, at times, brought out characteristics better left in a television movie or novel.  That said, we all recognize the exigent nature of this election cycle and beyond.  The devil is at work all around us in this battle of good versus evil; we will rise above, work together, and become better for all the experiences.  I say this with a fresh "humble pie" baking in the oven.

Thank you for "reinspiring" the troops, Patsy. I'm certain we will soon see evidence in the community of our caring, patriotic Tea Party - the people who said we were gone are SO WRONG. This election cycle is critical to our country and we may be weary but we're not surrendering!

Amen to your blog, Patsy. Thanks for saying it for all of us! We are tired but it is not time to dispair. Our country, our new born, our seniors, our disabled, our teenagers, and all of those who have died for it's freedom are depending on us to save her.Go FCTP members! Come help when you can. Think of all the fun you will have getting to know new wonderful people!

Excellent post Patsy.  Just absolutely excellent.  I have been doing a lot of thinking about some things that bothered me, and this helped.

Good thoughts and I know all of us have felt these emotions. You are right the fight is still in front of us there is no time to turn inward! Thanks for the wake up. Lew Walker
