Well.

I've read this thread twice, trying to digest what I'm seeing here.

I completely understand feeling demoralized and even somewhat hopeless over what has unfolded this past year. I guess I'm not clear on exactly what is it you are trying to accomplish with these posts? Are you saying, everyone shut up and go home? Forget even trying to spread the word and take action? I think you're mistaken if you assume the rest of us here are wearing rose-colored glasses; I'm pretty confident most of us realize the seriousness of the situation. But barring the continuation of our efforts, what is it you propose? Curling up in the fetal position and saying "have it me, Marxists?" Sorry to be snarky, but really... what is your plan/suggestion?

I did not see anyone here jus wanting to give up at all. My point is to try to alert on a situtation that I am afraid a lot of Americans don;t realize because they never saw that before and cannot accept the idea that it is happening in America. That's all I am trying to do, with my own experience. And hoping that it will help to tell people that they have to wake up NOW...not to go back to bed..we never said that.

This was on American Thinker a while ago:
Anti-Western ideologies have penetrated the very core of our societies at the same time as we are under siege from outside. This is clearly not a sustainable situation and it will need to be resolved if our civilization is going to survive this century. Regardless of who wins this November, the West is in for a bumpy ride. What this election tells us is that America voted for change because America is in the process of changing – not just demographically by becoming less white and more diverse, but as the result of a culture war in which western civilisation is losing out to a far-left agenda which has become mainstream, teaching American children to despise the founding values of their country and hijacking discourse by the minority power-grab of victim-culture. So now we are promised a change in America’s fundamental values. And they really will be changed. Obama has said in terms that he thinks the US constitution is flawed. America’s belief in itself as defending individual liberty, truth and justice on behalf of the free world will now be expiated instead as its original sin. Those who have for the past eight years worked to bring down the America that defends and protects life and liberty are today ecstatic. They have stormed the very citadel on Pennsylvania Avenue itself. Millions of Americans remain lion-hearted, decent, rational and sturdy. They find themselves today abandoned, horrified, deeply apprehensive for the future of their country and the free world. No longer the land of the free and the home of the brave; they must now look elsewhere.

Never forget lessons of history or it will repeat itself:

First they came for the communists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a communist;

Then they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist;

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist;

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew;

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak out for me.

The plan is to let this version of the USA die. Cop out & prepare; it's not going to be much longer. There is no way this situation can continue.

The fate of nations always comes down to money ... and we don't have any. It's why the fedgov needs to come up with $4 trillion in 2010 alone to roll -over $2T in short-term debt and finance another $2T in deficit spending.

The orgy of looting is out in the wide-open for all to see. Multi-trillions of our money is being diverted to current consumption by favored constituents, rather than being invested in new, wealth producing economic activities.

It cannot continue. Thus, be prepared for the reset.
