In every war, you lose some battles and you win some battles,until you WIN THE WAR. Expect losses and keep a positive mental outlook. Positive thought begets positive action. Let’ say our prayers and keep up the good fight.

[itssme]

So, what are you going to do? Just sit there and list all the issues we have to deal with, wring your hands and mourn the death of this country as you see it? Do you not understand that the tide can change...we don't’ have crystal balls so we don't know the future. But we do know that those of us who live this country will not let her be destroyed. General Eisenhower in WWII had doubts, fears as he planned the strategy that eventually won the war. George Washington also experienced the same doubts and fears as he fought and lost battles, until he WON the war. A
Fear, doubt and losses are part and parcel of wars. Accept that thought and keep going, keep fighting in any and all ways you can. Acknowledge your doubts and fears, and then get to work on taking back our Constitution, our freedom and liberty. Keep a positive outlook, because negative thinking is a waste of good energy that can be put to better use. This is what I do to keep me going...I have my moments of sadness and extreme frustration, and then pick myself up and I keep at it. And I say a prayer.

TROLL. Peddle it somewhere else.

[GeronL]

I am definitely with Ted Cruz and I will follow him into battle

[itssme]

I, too, am for Ted Cruz..he is our best hope.

[wardaddy]

If we rebound its temporary

This nation tilts non white majority as predicted by everyone in 40 years and its stick a fork in it time

Not to mention it gets harder in the meantime

I agree folks are so repulsed by Obama that we look good in the fall..no question

Another issue though is the GOPe has declared war on us too

And they won 80% of these primaries

Ironically Cruz is the opponent who likely scares them most

[wardaddy]

Nice platitude but realistically carbon steel is quite right

The Latino voting bloc is going to crush us literally within one generation

Its too late to stop it.

Maybe God wants western civilization....white European culture...whatever description doesn’t offend the sensitive

To die off.

I hope not.....we brought more civilization and religious and tech and medical and comfort advance to humanity than any other group ever did

And then it and our guilt over being top dawg allowed us to self destruct

Willingly.....at the hands of lesser peoples

Our descendants will consider us of our time disgustingly weak

[stanne]

You got a cello dirge to go with that?

[VRW Conspirator]

The LIVs have not felt sufficient pain yet.

And when that happens, the LIVs are pre-programmed to put the blame in the wrong place, such as those mean-nasty republicans, or corporations, or Tea Party people or anyone-but-Obama.

[VRW Conspirator]

Also, I'm sorry that freepers don't like that I don't necessarily trust Ted Cruz.

I am with you. There is one nagging bit of information: His wife is a managing director at Goldman Sachs, I read. It could mean nothing, but...he sounds great and says all the right things. We shall see.

[Amendment10]

"There is one nagging bit of information: His wife is a managing director at Goldman Sachs, I read."

This is why I don't trust Ted Cruz. What do the people listed below have in common?

• Ted Cruz

• Ruth Bater Ginsburg

• Barrack Obama

• Chuck Schumer

All the above government "leaders" attended Harvard Law School.

[Amendment10]

Mea culpa. I mispelled a name in post 71. Here's the correction.

Ruth Bater Bader Ginsburg

I don’t have a problem looking at things realistically. I’m as pro-Cruz as anyone here, and I would support his candidacy enthusiastically. I believe he would be able to help turn some things around....put a finger in the dike, so to speak.

But we have to realize that it’s very possible God is giving us what we deserve. The country kicked Him out a while back, to the point that people scream if you mention the name of Jesus in public.

As for that old chestnut “Demographics is destiny”, well, it’s more than just that.

[stanne]

Yes there are people who allow the liberals to remove God

Nothing but anger and bullying gives them the right to do so, and the constitution gives we the people more rights than we are willing to take, and someone comes along with position and credentials and says he’ll help us get back to a healthy place, it makes some kind of sense to tell him to quit it and for others to forget it and ignore him.

It makes more sense to a lot of people to whine about how the libs are in charge and to wait for them to become conservative. I just think that the only thing that will make them convert is a demand to convert to islam, or, heck, just a suggestion. Hmm maybe I have too many European associates. That’s where they are

[Ohioan]

wardaddy: While things look very bleak at the moment, you are too easily resigned to what is certainly not inevitable.

Demographic trends do not irreversibly run in one direction. If you go back through the decades and look at old projections, you will see that point, even without considering the specific causes for the present trends that seem to be fatal--and hence consider the possibilities for reversing them.

Even if the trends are not reversed over the next couple of decades, we need to attack the idiocy that implies that the suffrage can only be extended, as it has been over the past 190 years, since the mid-1820s. There is an indefensible conflict of interest involved in allowing people who receive unearned benefits from any level of Government, continuing to vote for that level of Government--i.e., voting for those who bribe them.

Certainly, God has not inspired the refusal to defend the civilization & culture that honored Him in all its formal declarations; has not promoted the degeneration, which we witness today, both in principles of Government & in such fundamental concepts as the Fifth Commandment. America--as a rooted people--can yet wake up; but, of course, it will not happen so long as many, who claim to be "Conservative," begin their campaigns and speeches by apologizing for the heritage that once enabled the greatest success in the shortest period of any people in recorded history.
