How many of you out there today are asking the same question? Will today be America’s last Independence Day?
After three and a half years of Barack Obama the economy is in ruins. The regulations more oppressive. The government is more intrusive. And the future looks bleak.
Think of this – Just three and a half years ago– ** In President Bush’s last year in office, 2008, the deficit reached $459 billion. Today, for the third year in a row, the US deficit is over a trillion dollars (and Obama still says it’s Bush’s fault). This is after he promised to cut the deficit in half.
** Real GDP has risen 0.8% over the 13 quarters since the Great Recession began, compared to an average increase of 9.9% in past recoveries. It is the worst recovery on record.
** On July 3, 2008 — the day before Independence Day — Barack Obama said that adding $4 trillion in debt was irresponsible and “unpatriotic.
** Obama is the worst jobs president since the Great Depression. The jobs recession is the longest since World War II.
** Government agents are now grabbing your crotch at the airport and frisking your grandmother.
An Obama TSA agent marches away after bringing a passenger to tears at a Midwest airport.
** The Obama EPA is spying on Iowa farmers in planes but holding talks with the Taliban.
** Obama blew a trillion dollars on a stimulus and downgraded the economy.
** Since the recession ended in June 2009, the number of new enrollees on disability is twice the job growth figure.
** Obama passed the largest intrusive tax in world history while lying and calling it healthcare.
Obama wants more change. He wants more control. His plans include more devastation. Can America really survive another four years under Barack Obama?
I appreciate those whowere willing to shed their blood to give us freedom. I am grateful to Jesus for the shedding of His blood to give us freedom from death.
“The Obama administration pushed the US well over the tipping point.”
True, but it was a relay race in which both major parties have participated.
Yep, but here's the rub...we're told if we exercise it we fall into their hands.
Caveat: I'm not advocating, just saying.....and the fact I have to post that is, well, all saying....
This IS 1984.
No, and is even a bit problematic we will survive even if he gets defeated. Nevertheless, we will persevere in either case.
“I have great faith in the American People. We have been hit before and came back”
That was then; this is now. The “American People” are no longer that. They’re Afro-American, Asian-American, Hispanic-American, Polish-American, etc. Everybody’s hyphenated, and the word that comes before the hyphen is where their hearts are. Young adults have never been taught American History, so they don’t “get it”, and they never will. There have been polls showing that a huge number of people don’t see much wrong with Socialism.
Yes; “we have been hit before and came back”, but people were better then — better educated, better character, etc. It’s a whole new ballgame. 2011 was American’s last Independence Day in a patriotic sense.
I hate to say it, but this election will solve nothing. Pick your socialist poison? NO THANKS.
The only patriotic course for conservatives to take now is to get the ball rolling on secession. That is the only way the red states ever hope to restore the U.S. Constitution.
You never did.
When was it legal to sell an organ?
Prostitution?
Ingest drugs for recreational purposes?
But your point is a valid one, now you cannot even be overweight, pudgy, plump...voluptuous?
Crap, sorry about the formatting ;(
It's actually very easy to tell you what is happening: the ruling classes (there are several) are disinclined to give up power, they are disinclined to be held to account, and they are disinclined to listen to mere cattle. -- and make no mistake, the ruled are cattle; why else would the IRS claim that all foreign earnings are taxible? -- It's fine if the cattle are aggravated or uncomfortable, just so long as they are part of the herd going where directed and producing as directed.
Io believe there's only two ways to get through this: #1 - Divine intervention, and #2 - Violently ousting them from their offices. (the success of #2 is dependent on god, meaning that there is only one way.)
Many countries celebrate annually a day that they won freedom from a foreign nation.
I just don't think we will be celebrating individual freedoms and liberties. Most people do not realize what freedom is. Most people do not realize freedom means individual control over an issue, not government regulation.
As government takes control over every issue and regulates it, we are no longer a free people.
But we can always sit in traffic, pay $5.00 in parking, stand in line and watch government controlled approved fireworks displays on July 4th wave American flags.
I'm sorry but I'm going to disagree; casting a vote for Romney is a signal to the Republican party that they can push whoever they want on us, this in turn will encourage them to push more RINOs on us. -- and let's quit using the term RINO, it's obvious that the true masqueraders are the Republicans that believe in a limited, responsible government. (look at the times that GW Bush was in office, and the Legislature was Republican-controlled; ask yourself what they did to reduce the size/scope of government, what they did to overturn Roe.v Wade, what they did to repeal GCA/NFA?) The republicans did not even put a token out there regarding Roe v. Wade, not even a resolution considering the USSC wrong and that the 5th Amd applies to the unborn.
NO. America is not on the brink of collapse! I would remind you that if, percentage-wise, you were allowed to run up the kind of debt America now has incurred, your household would not only collapse, the creditors would be owning your accountable possessions!NO. Things now are not worse than they have ever been! In one sense, we are not at the great depression state, but in many ways we are far worse off, because so much of our wealth as a nation is now owned and controlled and regulated by the globalist agenda lovers that the means to recover from a depression state are not available as they were to come out of the great depression. Even a significant war, since our heavy manufacturing industries are now 'out sourced' would not work as it did to come out of the great depression.
NO. Democrats today are not the most radical and nasty than they have ever been! Sorry, that is just magic thinking. Not only are Democrats more nasty than ever before (have you listened to Nancy Pelosi lately?), they are more bold in their hatred of the America of the founding fathers, and the racial strife they lust for is more likely than ever before on a scale you don't want to contemplate for reasons of avoiding mental depression, with community organizers actually training dependency youths to come to rob and radicalize on call.
The Democrats have succeeded in degenerating our military standards, are implementing sexual degeneracy education your parent's generation would have shot people over, and the amount of debt now upon the average tax paying citizen is approaching bankruptcy levels, with banking powers able to slide their exposure onto federal programs like Fannie and Freddie, so the banking interests remain powerful and insulated from the mischief they have wrought, and we have a subPreme Court now siding with lawless governance.
The media which programs more than 50% of the American voting population is far more insidious than ever before since the taboo structure which restrained their wholesale degeneracy is now so full of holes that sexual degenerates run the networks and their ilk are protected in the streets as they parade their degeneracy in 'parades to celebrate diversity'.
This same herding media lie boldly to the sheeple whom they program and there is no feasible way to stop them!
The state of this Republic is so bad presently that people are in denial of the real catastrophes about to arrive. That of course is human nature, it was the same in Argentina not many decades back, to shift into denial when it is so bad that it is 'unbelievable we could get to this stage in destruction'.YES. It is likely that Republicans are going to be in charge of both houses of congress after the next election, even if the POTUS is a liberal Republican. And far more of these congressmen and senators will be REAL conservatives, not RINOs! I would remind you that a Soros owned Spanish company is counting far too many of the American votes this cycle, so the likelihood that voters will be allowed to depose enough enemies-of-America democrats in close races is fading fast with the dissonance factor we see raving even at Freerepublic. The majority of Soros owned vote counting has been arranged in red states, so getting those bastards out of office will be near impossible unless a trunout of conservative voters is so large that the cheating of count will be exposed. I don't see that turnout coming givent he noise being raised to reject the opposition candidate to little barry bastard commie.
YES. The bureaucracy is going to be taken down a bunch of pegs, and money will be flowing back to the Pentagon. Watch the vote counting, and see if races are close, because those are the ones the democrats will steal right before your eyes and there isn't a thing short of armed insurrection which can stop them where red state vote counting is handled by the Spanish company owned by an enemy of We The People.
YES. There is going to be full scale energy production again. The price of oil and gas will drop, coal will likely be re-legalized, and even nuclear energy will get a shot in the arm. Again, magic thinking, because the democrats are not going to lose control of power if the elections are close at state levels, and we know what their approach to energy production is ... regulate, control, shut down, build the dependency class numbers while loading the federal employee and government handout numbers to collapse the system ala Cloward-Piven strategy.
YES. This will do wonders for the economy and lift us out of the “Obama depression”. SO ENOUGH WITH THE NEGATIVE WAVES, ALREADY! I do hope you are enjoying your bout with magic thinking. It must be a comfort to you on this fourth of July.
And if you act right now, you get, absolutely free, to annoy the hell out of the leftists and Democrats, by showing the stars and stripes to everyone you see, and crying out “God Bless America!” Oh how I love to annoy the leftists and democrats among US. That is one of the few real joys to the soul left to US as the collapse rushes toward US. ... And yet, as I pray 'God Bless America' I am reminded of the tens of millions of alive unborn Americans who have been slaughtered because We The People did not soundly reject the evil of the Re v Wade era. I find it hard to believe God will bless us at this stage in our rejection of His blessings. But I'll join you in trying yet again to plead with The Almighty to cleanse our land and bless US again as He has in past eras.
Your mileage may vary, but check to see that it's not magic thinking in which you're counting to make US prosper.
Yes. Beginning next year the 4th of July will be known as "Government Dependence Day".

There is much truth in what you say.
LLS
No. If I'm wrong, it will be my last Independence day.

Both parties have used the slaughter of alive unborn Americans as an empowerment scheme: the democrats have demanded no restrictions on the slaughter, while the Republicans have used token opposition to the evil as a measn to fire up a duped base. We even have a man at FR running for president who has used the issue as his means to empower himself, by opposing any bill which would limit abortions in one way or another just because these efforts —in light of Roe v Wade being the law being— do not ban ALL abortions. I call it the all or nothing empowerment scheme where it is a given that what he demands is not going to happen because a law on the books is the means for both sides to exploit the evil.
