“One thing is for sure...the USA is not remotely the country that it was before the 1960s....when a nation declines it does not do so in a straight line. We certainly had a semi-revival in the 1980s with the election of president Reagan, but since then we find ourselves back on the road to perdition.”

Yes. That election where GWB won over Gore seemed to be the tipping point. It’s where the left went permanently insane, stopped trying to even hide who and what they are, and decided that anything and everything is okay as long as they end up with more power. The world turned upside down with “hanging chads” and “dimpled chads” and ever since then it’s gotten even worse.

Here it happened when anyone who did not pledge to support same-sex marriage was purged from the Democrat Party.
