This week went from Rino collaborators to the Republic’s death knell(Tell me I’m wrong, PLEASE)

*Weapons grade sarcasm*

Isn’t great that we can witness history in the making? Many times people don’t realize what is happening at the moment is historic because the are living it. We weren’t at the birth of our Constitutional Republic or at it’s major moments in becoming the greatest country on planet earth.

But now we have the great honor of witnessing it’s death knell..
Of the two decision by the Extreme Court this week, the Obamacare was the most egregious because of two very ominous reasons:
1. The national Socialist left can now try the ‘You have a right to ____’ with anything they want, meaning they have the right to enslave people to provide that right (like healthcare)
2. The Extreme court has now taken to reinterpreting the meaning of words and laws to whatever they want them to mean.
Welcome to the slippery slope Sheeple!

Consider the following quotation (I’m not sure of it authorship but it frames things nicely)

“A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world's greatest civilizations has been 200 years.”
And this:
The Fatal Sequence

The historical cycle seems to be:
From bondage to spiritual faith;
From spiritual faith to courage;
From courage to liberty;
From liberty to abundance;
From abundance to selfishness;
From selfishness to apathy;
From apathy to dependency;

And from dependency back to bondage once more.

Henning Webb Prentis, Jr.,

Can someone disagree with may conclusions here?
Please!

With ObamaTRADE, the GOP heralded to SCOTUS,
that they just DO NOT CARE.

What followed, has been the imposition of all things Romney.

From Dependency Back to Slavery (Under a Dictator or Worse).

Social media can be so proud of all their effort to decimate civilization.

You’re not wrong. The only question that remains is my tagline. That’s all I want to know, and yet, no one has been able to answer it thus far.

I don’t disagree with the conclusion, but the reason we are being destroyed is that we let the crony corporatists seize control of the Republican party. There is no opposition party to evil now. Voting for the “lesser of 2 evils” has over the past 20 years, left us with nothing but evil.

You’re not wrong.

We elect republicans to control the senate and the house. Yet, it doesn’t matter.

We recently lost on ...

obamatrade (thanks republican leadership and chamber of commerce)
obamacare - supreme court ruling rewrites the law again.
illegal immigration - they’re dumping so-called “refugees” on us now too.
everything is whitey’s fault - list is too long.

We’re spiraling quickly down the tubes.

I desperately want to say you are wrong...

You are right; I continue to cling to a ragged thread of hope that we get a conservative fighter as POTUS.

Boldly battling the enemies without and within... CRUZ 2016!

You’re not wrong, just late to the party. IMO, the republic died when the Commerce clause was interpreted to empower the federal government with total control. Others may cite even earlier events. We live in a nation-state spending itself into oblivion.

Nothing. It’s a lesser evil. People got the evil they voted for and should now quietly sit down and not complain about the logical outcome of their actions.

Democrats fought like tigers filibustering judge nominations they didn’t like.
Too many Republicans rolled over like kittens to Democrats’ judge nominations.

So you’re right, and here we are with a command health care system and homosexualists having it their way, thanks to our RINO Uniparty “champions”.

You know, I used to vehemently disagree with that sentiment…. 5.. 6 years ago.

It’s becoming quite clear that is the case these days… my apologies for not waking up to that fact earlier..

Not to go ‘off-topic’ but all of these events seems to be interconnected. (not in a conspiratorial way, but in the sense of how events interact)

Could one major reason so many are displaying untold hostility to the Confederate battle flag and the CSA in general is that many see the country going towards CW 2.0 and the whole issue this week was a ‘preemptive strike’ at that concept?

It’s beginning to dawn on me that we should use the term Collaborator for RINO’s - Collaborator in the sense of the word from the people who ‘cooperated’ with the national socialist Germany…

This administration has been beating down America since day one. Today, it struck her death blow. Embrace husseins’ hope and change. It was well executed and we did nothing to stop it.
