The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the presidency. It will be easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to an electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails us. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The republic can survive a Barack Obama It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president.” — Author Unknown

Brings to mind the moral cesspit that Germany was in the 20s and 30s - fertile soil for Hitler and Nazism.

America, in the greater scheme of the ages of civilizations, is rather young, similar to a smartalek teenager. The Teen think (s)he knows everything; smarter than the parents.
In the case of America, this so called Teenager of a nation is not listening to the “Parents”, those nations who have tried socialism and can tell anyone willing to listen, that it does not work.
What horrible growing pains some of these elite liberal idiots are taking this nation.

Very well put.

I was part of Cynthia McKinney’s district for several years. I was redistricted out of Newt’s old GA-6th and unceremoniously dumped into Jihad Cyndy’s GA-4th. It was a sad time, to be sure.

As I liked to say, it didn’t bother me much that a Cynthia McKinney existed. What bothered me greatly was that there was a Congressional district full of people who would vote her into office over and over.

Over the long haul, as you say, it is going to take much more than just taking back a majority in Congress to set things aright, that is only the start. Education is the key, and the one ray of hope is the increase in private schools and especially home schooling. The theme I really believe in is separation of School and State. There’s a concept that really causes Liberals serious alarm.

You post the truth. The problem is ignorance about our form of government as opposed to others. I am starting to believe that Glen Beck is a prophet. He is trying to give America a crash course which, if he can reach enough people, will be lifesaving to our way of life. He suggested recently that if each of us could reach only ten people with the truth, it could spread across the country. It is time that normal people get together in homes..Direct people to sources of good information and know how to explain to others what you believe. And, never, never support the left with your dollars if you can help it.

You are right about that. I told my friends when Clinton won a second term as president, that our country had developed a serious problem. The election of Obama proves that problem, a huge chunk of either “dumbed down” or welfare electorate.

Yea, that’s a good quote. I’ve read it here before but it needs to passed around far and wide.

I agree with you. The psyche of this country is so damaged that a man like Obama could be elected is more scary than Obama himself, he is just the figure head.

I would like to know where you found that. Profound statement that sums up our peril perfectly.

Yes, a nation of fools elected Obama. How did it happen that we now have so many fools in the nation?

Yuri Besmenov warned us in the 1980s. Our nation is not utterly "demoralized". Next step: Destabilization.

Yet...Conservatives consistently fail to have a rational plan to RE-moralize the nation!

Hint: Any RE-moralization plan better include shutting down the government K-12 schools and getting the nation's kids into private conservative schools that will weave Judeo Christian principles and our nation's founding principles into the very fabric of their entire school day.
