Or slingshot. "He didn't realize it was loaded."
Sorry, can’t agree with you. The takers outnumber the makers and the taker rolls continue to grow. We’re outnumbered and the situation is getting worse daily.
I see no indication that those of us who pay attention are ready to do anything other than point out the problems. Oh we vote, but that stopped being a viable method of change a long time ago.
The Republicans are the flip side of the Democrat coin. Politicians represent themselves and their own lust for power and money. We The People are not even an afterthought to them - until they lie and pander for meaningless votes, playing the ‘election’ game.
If the future is in our hands then there is no future. Two terms of Clinton, two terms of Obama, and an impending two terms of the anointed Hillary, most likely followed by two terms of Michelle is proof enough to me. We have the government we deserve - the best government money can buy - and no election is going to change that.
As for God, I believe deeply that when we sat back and allowed Him to be thrown out of the public arena with hardly a whimper...well He loves us as people, but I’m not so sure He loves America so much any longer.
Your opinion is yours and you’re welcome to it, I pray that you’re correct and I’m wrong but that’s how I see it.
We all have to be a little careful methinks! (chuckle).
“Don’t Blame Me - I Voted For Kodos!”
Too many FReepers are ready to throw in the towel before they've done anything other than pi** and moan online about how bad things are. Or more to the point, how bad we've allowed things to get because we're too lazy or scared to do anything about it.
Ron, your FEMA camp is waiting. Maybe if you go ahead and turn yourself in now, rather than make them go to the effort of arresting you and loading you onto a cattle car, they'll let you have first dibs on cots.

- John Adams, a devout Christian, helped choose the bald eagle as the symbol for America. I believe it was an inspired choice.
- The bald eagle has come roaring back from near extinction.
- An eagle's youth is renewed as it gets older as researchers continue to discover and as the Bible tells us (Ps 103:5).
- Interestingly, the flying eagle is one of four faces described throughout the Bible (Eze 1:10,10:14; Rev 4:7) of "man-like" (Eze 1:5) creatures that surround the throne and ceaselessly say "Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come" (Rev 4:8). Well many believe that these four faces represent the four main characteristics of Jesus with each of the four gospels emphasizing one of the four. The flying eagle is thought to symbolize Jesus as the Son of God, emphasized in John's gospel, who will fly back to us in his second coming.
These are all very hopeful symbols and aspects that point to America's having "a new birth of freedom" and remaining until Jesus returns for his bride. (All bets are off after that.) I also have some personal reasons why I think America's freedom and prosperity will be renewed because of clear promises of God's blessing and greatly prospering me and others for the next 60 years or so before I go to Heaven.
We are living in the last days, described very well by Jesus in Revelation 3:14-17. Lukewarm self-sufficiency is the overall state of the church and the world. But there are many in America who are not in that group who are described very well in Revelation 3:8-10. How many people did it take for God to forgo judgment of the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah? (Ten is what we know, but I believe Abraham stopped too soon - I think it could have been less.) I think America has at least that ratio of those that love him ad faithfully trust him for renewal.
I'm with you - I hope I'm right but my trust is in Him, not man.
OK. Now that’s what I like to hear!

Lies My President Told Me Article from 2012- Lots of great links!
(article) read the comments following, they are really educational.

And the democrats are importing a large army of illegals to be their shock troops. Their loyalty is to the government handout, not the nation.
Baraq is not going to leave in ‘17.
He and his party have been setting the table for either a financial crisis like the one in 2008 or another terrorist attack on US soil or both. One of their operating principles is to never let a crisis go to waste.
He has shown outright contempt for the country and our constitution since day one. What would make him honor the law of two terms as a president?
And even if we have a presidential election and Hillary “wins”, why should he leave? He would just tell Hillary to go get stuffed. What could she do about that?
Amen.
Though I can never resist trying, and I’m sure you feel the same, the certainty for all to see, is that God has wholly been rejected by most Amercans, as we stood by as spectators and did not muster. Even those of us who are left to claim His Name, largely hold no candle whatsoever to the devotion held by our forefathers to the Christian faith, and to all of its then common practices, to its devotion and happy obedience.
These were the caliber of Christians who gave us the Constitution that blessed us for so long, that we frittered away, falling into this— our present sorry state.
That kind of Christian today is largely gone, or thought a relic.
We marginal Christians, relative to those of yesteryear have too long compromised our faith with the secular world and modernity, no longer willing to fight for, or with, our lives, our fortunes, or our sacred honor.
The truth on us is pretty much exposed. The word is out. Thus, all the advances of pure evil befall us.
This is why I tied so hard to convince people to vote against 0bama in 2012. Instead, too many voted against Romney.
Against 0bama was the correct vote to cast in that election.
Yeh its pretty much come to that. Now its just a matter of what are we going to do about it.
Really? This was the best you could do?
FYI, I’m and Oathkeeper and I’m committed to returning this country to it’s roots as a Constitutional Republic. But I’m also realistic in that when I look around I see a lot of people what don’t give a rotund rodent’s rectum. I see a small number who care deeply (like Jim Robinson), and I see quite a few that (as my late father used to say) ‘talk a good game’.
There are a lot of people who know things are going off the tracks and the train is headed downhill picking up speed. What I don’t see is too many who want to lead as the Founding Fathers did.
I don’t know you. You don’t know me yet you vilified me and condemned me to the FEMA camp for disagreeing with you. Tell you what, the only way I’ll go to a FEMA camp will be to free the citizens being held there. Only you can choose if that will be you, but it damn sure won’t be me.
Wonder why we can’t beat the progressives, folks? We turn on each other for disagreeing with us. We have a common foe but it’s far easier to belittle those who believe like we do. JMHO.

Here’s the thing...I don’t have to prove anything to you or anyone else. I know what I believe and what I do as do my friends of like mind. I’ll say it again, I don’t know you so my OPSEC radar lights up when someone challenges me to ‘prove’ who I am. What is it you’d have me say or do that would constitute proof to you?
Had you read carefully and closely you might have noticed I basically agreed with you - just disagreed with the outcome. There aren’t enough people who would put “their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor” at risk today. America is done until there are a sufficient number who stand up - and not just on FR - and say, “that’s enough”. I don’t see those people - yet. My fear is they make their choice far too late.
