Feeling worse as this goes on...like my dog died or something.
Not too late, II. Only if we individually and collectively decide it is. I am about to turn 57, was disbled severelly three years ago with malignant bone cancer, which they got, but had to cut out a bunch of my spine to do it...and I am not completley cancer free yet.
I have five kids who are now raising their own families and a bunch of grandkids.
I will never give up, throw in the towel, are accept the notion that it is too late for me to do something about it and help them as long as I have breath.

I will fight as long as the Good Lord allows me to draw breath. Thank you for your inspirational words.
It is my view, that conservatives, should stand back, far back, and let the liberals, self-destruct....we are always rushing to save the day....let Obama run the ship into the rocks....that is the only way this mess can be turned around....sorry to say....

Now do you understand why I had precious little to say about the “election”? The results of this election were determined in 2008, including the faux-opposition candidate. You people who have spent the last several months breathlessly agonizing over this, analyzing fake polls and deluding yourselves into believing that this was somehow a legitimate operation are just sad. You’re like the people in Iraq who supported the opposition candidate to Saddam Hussein for all of those years. Yes, Saddam Hussein held “elections”. Regularly. That is what happened here yesterday. We had a Saddam Hussein “election”.
This can all be summed up in one simple sentence that I have been screaming from the rooftops ever since November of 2008:
These people are NEVER going to walk away.
She’s got a point. I know I failed to believe what I have thought all along. This is what Marxist do.......That said, our path before us is now very clear. Fight or fail.
You got that right. When 53% of the country hate the other 47% it is pretty scary. Funny we are th3 47%. Wow I am living in a twilight zone universe...
Such times, and the chos, social unrest, and upheavels that would go along with it will,. sadly, kill...and they will predominantly kill the poor wretches whohave bought into the idea that government is the cure of all their ills, the great provider. They may never realizie that those very government programs and dependencies which they grasp to as a way of life, are the very weapons that will destroy them.
Perhaps my bitterness is too overwhelming right now, but I say GOOD RIDDANCE! May they ALL die, and die painfully, scratching and clawing each other's eyes out fighting over the scraps their communist masters deign to throw! May they all begin the slow, long rot in Hell HERE before they take their last breath. And may they watch their illiterate, slovenly, celebrity-worshipping progeny slouching in government-approved lines, knowing they will end up the SAME WAY! Not one of them will get a moment of my sympathy, not a dime of my charity. I will spit on and kick each and every one of them.
From here on out, it's my children and NO ONE else that matters. They will learn the TRUTH about what they see as it goes on around them. And I hope to God my anger takes hold in them and GROWS, so they will never knowingly or willingly cede one iota of their time or treasure to ANY of the cretins who have stolen their future out from under them.
Screw 'em all.
It is not anecdotal. We have the same black panthers intimidating voters from the previous election. Republican election officials were kicked out of Philadelphia voting locations that ended up with Saddam Hussein vote results. This is hard core rock solid voter fraud and everyone who participated needs to have their American citizenship revoked and put on a slow boat to China.
Maybe they need one big collective shove to get them there faster?
re: “God in Heaven has answered our prayers...but not the answer we hoped and prayed for. . . But HE IS IN CHARGE, and He knows what He is doing.”
I agree with everything you said in your post except the part about blaming God for the election results. God gives us free will, He allows us to make choices. Our country made a choice - a very bad one - and, we are going to have to endure the consequences of that choice.
Yes, God is ultimately in control, but He did not choose Hitler, or Lenin, or Stalin, or Mao - man did that. God allows man to make free moral choices - God is able to carry out His will IN SPITE of those choices. Not everything that happens is what God wanted, yet His will cannot be thwarted. How He does this I don’t know, but notice what Jesus said about Jerusalem in Luke 13:34 -
“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones those sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, just as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you would not have it!”
Jesus wanted to gather the people of Jerusalem to Himself, but they refused. How can it be that His will was to gather them, but they could refuse? Doesn’t God’s will always happen? Isn’t He “in control”?
The answer is it’s because God gives us the freedom to choose that allows us to disobey Him. Does that mean God’s will is helpless - absolutely not! God always works things out to conform to His ultimate will.
God will help us through good and bad times. This is definitely one of the bad times. I heard someone say recently that there are hurtful, harmful things that God allows us to experience because of either our choices or others bad, sinful choices, but what He chooses not to remove, He will help us endure. This I do believe.
I realize many may not agree with me on this, but I just feel God gets blamed for a lot of bad stuff that we do - not Him.
Great post. I am sick of all the defeatism I have been reading and hearing from our friends.
As for me, I am going to fight these leftist traitors and dupes every way I can. I will not comply. We must fight them intellectually, spiritually, and on the streets with protest and civic actions. We must keep faith with our brothers and sisters where ever they live, especially those patriots in the most democrat-controlled hell-holes of our Republic. These are truly the times that try men’s souls and I am no sunshine patriot. We will prevail. “Don’t tread on Me” is our pledge and our watchword.
Oooh talkin' tough on the internet. That's real heroic. When you finally pull out a victory wake me up. In the meantime I'm looking for a 3rd party.
My thoughts exactly!
MARK LEVIN: We conservatives, we do not accept bipartisanship in the pursuit of tyranny. Period. We will not negotiate the terms of our economic and political servitude. Period. We will not abandon our child to a dark and bleak future. We will not accept a fate that is alien to the legacy we inherited from every single future generation in this country. We will not accept social engineering by politicians and bureaucrats who treat us like lab rats, rather than self-sufficient human beings. There are those in this country who choose tyranny over liberty. They do not speak for us, 57 million of us who voted against this yesterday, and they do not get to dictate to us under our Constitution.
We are the alternative. We will resist. We’re not going to surrender to this. We will not be passive, we will not be compliant in our demise. We’re not good losers, you better believe we’re sore losers! A good loser is a loser forever. Now I hear we’re called ‘purists.’ Conservatives are called purists. The very people who keep nominating moderates, now call us purists the way the left calls us purists. Yeah, things like liberty, and property rights, individual sovereignty, and the Constitution, and capitalism. We’re purists now. And we have to hear this crap from conservatives, or pseudo-conservatives, Republicans.
I am not blamimng God. We as a nation made this choice.
We prayed, and worked our hearts out, and sought His help...and I believe He gave it...just not in the way we imagine. That’s all.
He allowed us to make this choice and did not intervene. He has intervened at times in history...but we are not ready for, or His plan does not call for it now.
So, I hope you understand my stance. My point is that whatever case, we have to accept God’s will and work with it and progress from there. He is not molded by our desires, we are modled by His and once we as a people turn to those rightous desires He has for us, we will see progress as a people.
In the mean time we do not falter. We continue to work our hearts out for the day that becomes a reality.
Amen. Spot on.
Have we so soon forgotten about our victories in 2010 after the thumping in 2008!?
I’ll tell you what I tell my kids; “never, ever, quit on yourself!”
In life we can always choose to be the victim or the victor. I know my choice, do you know your’s!?
Jeff,
I respect you greatly. But I look at what America has wrought for itself, and I cannot help but think the country now really does deserve the unethical, amoral government it chose. A majority legally chose this government - TWICE - over the objections of the rest of us.
It is my opinion that we are now at the point that only the act of tearing down the edifices built by over half a century of liberalism will serve to undo the evils. And to accomplish that will now cost the lives of millions.
The rot is too deep. The dependent class, who contribute nothing to this country, will not ever be off the dole until forced off. THEY OUTNUMBER US NOW.
We are going to lose cities before eyes are opened.
Cynical? - you bet. Who would have EVER believed a majority would vote for pie in sky incompetence of the Obama administration? I went right into the election confident that a goodly majority of Americans would vote for ethical, moral excellence in government. Silly me.
So much has to come down before it can be righted.
This is the first FR post I have read since the election. Right now I can’t keep up the good fight - for what end? All politics is local is my new focus. ‘Let the cities burn’ feels like the appropriate response to a country dead set on dependence.

Excellent piece, Jeff. I see you as a very remarkable man and it will take such men to turn this battered ship into the wind and to get her through this storm.
Regrettably, I do not see a safe harbor ahead, nor calm seas on the horizon. Our ship is made of strong wood, but she is taking on water, has lost her steerage and the pounding seas remain merciless. Although things are not well and our ship is not fit...... she still floats. ;>)
When you spoke of those that came before us and GAVE THEIR ALL in battle after battle, war after war, I am reminded of a question that I often ask myself - “Am I living a life worthy of their sacrifice?”
It’s going to take me a bit to put myself back together, as I am in a very bad mood.... but in due time I will.
What our enemies fail to comprehend is that some of us, many of us, would sooner die fighting, than allow them to steal our Liberty and force our grandchildren to live a filthy Godless life of their design.
Those who seek to do harm to me or my loved ones - they should bring guns.
Push on, yes, we must push on - to do less is to surrender.
