America is in crisis. Her destiny is on the line, and she will survive only if we still love her.
A battle rages in the streets, in academia, in the culture, and in the hearts and minds of the American people over whether America was and remains a good and great nation.

considering that I live here there is no choice for me, I will do anything I can to save my country.
I’ve already decided a long time ago. I’m ready. Just waiting for the clarion call. My liberties and freedom are more important than wearing a mask and being shutdown. And I can’t wait to take the fight to the enemy. I know this sounds dramatic but we’re in a heap of chit now. Drastic times require drastic measures.

Not sure we need to lift a gun to win this war. We need retired schoolteachers who remember real history to go to these monuments and hold impromptu lessons about who these people were, why there were important, and why they need to be kept in place (or removed, if standing next to Lenin, Che, or other Leftists). Explain how the Democratic party is the party of slavery, KKK, Jim Crow, and that they are spiritual cousins to totalitarian Marxists such as the communists of last century. Give them power and off to the gulags we go. They can also give lessons on the lies told by the media.
It’s just like the book Fahrenheit 451. At some point when society is circling the drain, with all our history, books, and culture having been erased by the woketards, men and women of knowledge need to remind us of the value of true history.
At this point, Limbaugh’s call for moral courage is not enough. Physical courage is required as well as the Democrat/Left hell-bent on destroying our Republic and our Constitution understands and will react to only one thing and one thing only: Force.
Nice article. But the Devil is in the details.
All sides must believe that it is to their own advantage to pursue the things that David Limbaugh is talking about here.
One side has always believed that building a better, stronger nation with minimal involvement of the government is to their personal advantage. The other side believes that simply taking what has been built, with the acute involvement of a new type of government is to their personal advantage.
For too long, the destroyers have demanded tribute from the
producers and the producers paid it as a means of maintaining a civil society. But it is never enough. Ending that tribute guarantees riots and unrest.
The chasm is too wide and too deep.
“concrete limitations on government”
American governments can tax all you own and earn and give you a bolt action rifle and send you off to war.
Think again on wearing masks. Masks could become far more common for entirely different reasons.
“He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us,...whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction, of all ages, sexes and conditions.”
—In Congress, July 4 1776
The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America
Only tax and spending limitations can stop a civil war.
A minority individual observes his poor economic condition and attempts to formulate a reason for the situation. He notices that his peers are in a similar economic condition. Using his observations of the group, he formulates the idea that that he cannot be personally responsible for his condition as the entire group is in the same condition. This is an easier thing to do than a self assessment. He now no longer identifies as an individual but now as member of “the group”. He then assumes that if he is a member of a group, everyone in society must also be a member of some group, even if those to whom he has assigned to a group, do not so identify.
Once this diverse group mentality is established in the minority, any offense against an individual in the minority group, even by a single individual from the outside, is interpreted to be an offense by the entire outside group (even if it does not really exist). The response to the offense, individual on individual, is for the entire minority group to react to the entire outside group. Occasionally verbally, often violently.
Once the individuals on the outside sense the attack, in defense, they begin to band together as a group. As a group, they now resist the attack of the minority group. It is at this point, they believe it is safer to be a member of the group, than to be an individual. Now, it is group against group and now the newly formed group gets the label of racist which is now thrown back and forth between the groups with no resolution.
What I have described above are the symptoms of the conflict not the source of the disease. The source is that there are minorities that cannot or will not compete in their pursuit of happiness in a capitalist society. Therefore; they adopt a socialist philosophy expecting that society has the responsibility to provide for their “happiness”. It is never enough. So, why the “cannot compete”? Bell Curve. This does not mean they are bad people. It is what it is. So, why the “will not compete” ? Socialism is easier and does not require any individual responsibility to contribute.
The only solution is for minorities to stop identifying with their minority group and compete as best they can as individuals. Teach their children to be the best they can be, as individuals. But we all must be willing to settle and accept our own limitations and be content with what we are able to achieve, as individuals. And turning to God to make this happen is not a bad idea either.

All sides must believe that it is to their own advantage to pursue the things that David Limbaugh is talking about here.

Agreed.
The title of this article is wrong. We do not have to decide whether we want to save America, rather we need to decide HOW we will save America.
Only someone who has given up would even suggest there is a choice.

I posted this a couple of days ago. Fits here too:
Our traditions, that are very important indeed, are to celebrate Columbus Day in honor of the man most people in this Country see as having “discovered” America. History is often a bit hazy, and the days celebrated not an exact replica of the original events, but they are nevertheless very important to the traditions and customs of this Country and have been for years and years. If new U.S. hating immigrants from third world countries, dissidents, terrorists, anarchists, Muzzies, socialists, and general haters of our Country do not like the holidays this Country has chosen to honor, then they can get the hell out and find another host country with more freedoms than ours.
Such as one where they will have the freedom to choose their own holidays, maybe Black Lives Matter” Day, or erect a statue of George Soros. Good luck finding such a country. I want a “White Lives Matter” Day, but I’ll be dead before I ever see it. This Country fought a Civil War to end slavery, and that war was fought primarily by WHITE men. But the “original sin” of slavery, commonplace in the history of the world at that time, long after most prejudice has been wiped out in this Country, is still continually used as a cudgel against “Whitey” in order to obtain more and more privileges and perks. Many of them against poor white men and women who get lesser access to federal and state grants, loans and awards to White students at colleges, and have lost job opportunities only because they are White. My how the pendulum ever swings. How do you think minority overlords will treat a White minority, hmmm? The same way as those they continually accuse of prejudice now? You bet they will once in power. Payback time.
If all things on a resume are even only somewhat equal, the default is to hire the minority, regardless of skill sets. I know what I am speaking of here firsthand from where I worked (a major State University where I was involved with the hiring process in my Department; and also I was in the private sector for many years). Whitey is the endangered species here.
Blacks are about a 14% minority in this Country, but recently you would think they are an 80% majority. They aren’t, they never will be, and many hate that, along with many of them just hating Whites, period. Those Whites who have bent over backward to right wrongs over many years now. And do you know whom I blame for the current turmoil in the Black community?
It’s white communist/socialist elites stirring the pot, along with elitist tech companies infected by White guilt and the corrupt MSM, this year in particular because it is an election year and they hate Trump who has been busy overturning many of their Obama Admin socialist policies, rules and regulations, perks and freebies, and improving our economy to the best it ever has been prior to the coming of the Chinese Coronavirus.
Trump will do it again if his enemies’ numbers are not quite large enough as a voting block yet, or this Country’s recent demographics haven’t nullified the dreaded White man’s majority yet. That will happen soon enough, but maybe not quite yet, if Trump is lucky.
White elitists and anarchists jumped on the BLM bandwagon, hijacked it, and appealed to an irrational mindset among too many Blacks that there is systemic racism in this Country. But both the White elitists and BLM have pushed way too far, and the racism that had pretty much been eradicated will probably make a comeback because of the actions of this year’s illogical, irrational protesters afoot throughout our land, and the attempt by these domestic terrorists to destroy our customs, tear down our statues, and ruin our melting pot culture so they can remake our Country in their own commie/socialist image. They hate us.
I for one am sick to death of it, and I will arm myself and defend my personal castle and our Country’s traditions against these traitors and their brainwashed, stupid, emotionally based pea brain followers. May they all rot in their own personal versions of hell.
This once wonderful Country is on the precipice of internal destruction, one election away from being a socialist hellhole like Venezuela and Cuba. You need go no farther for examples of what socialist dictators can create in their versions of Utopia. Maybe this Country needs for Biden to win so they can get a bird’s eye view of how a thriving economy and culturally mature Country can go downhill in the blink of an eye.
If Biden wins, our way of life will be destroyed so quickly it will make one’s head spin. I’m older; I won’t be around that long to view much of the crumbling of our Country, but I feel very sorry for the younger generations who will suffer under the yoke of socialism/communism and a dictatorship of the Left, not by their choice.
Actually, the elitist Libs had better sleep with one eye open because the perpetually aggrieved minority, once in power, will come for them next.
Agree totally ...thank you for the post.
When one side only wants to scream, yell, threaten, and use force and violence to get their way, and are ruled by mob emotion, talking is not an option - BECAUSE THEY WILL NOT TALK NOR WILL THEY LISTEN.
No war was ever won when violent attackers were met by people who wanted to talk. The violent attackers will always win.
And a seque that is related: “All Religions believe in Justice” There is some truth in that, but the other side of that coin is, “All true religions believe in mercy and forgiveness.” That side of the coin will never be accepted.
And it is interesting that those crying for “Justice” only want their concept of justice ON OTHERS, but no justice for their own deeds and acts. I.e., hypocrisy - the core element of leftists.
Both parties abrogated the Constitution on Usurpation Day, January 20, 2009 when they swore in an ineligible usurper.
Obama is not a natural born citizen.
That's right. This is the choice:
Trump's re-elected with Republican majorities in both houses of Congress: America is saved.
Democrats are elected: American is destroyed. (Watching American cities burn is merely a preview.)
“No war was ever won when violent attackers were met by people who wanted to talk. The violent attackers will always win.”
That reminds me of something Dean Acheson, Secretary of State under Truman, said: “No people in history have ever survived, who thought they could protect their freedom by making themselves inoffensive to their enemies.”
