It must be said, that like the breaking of a great dam, the American decent into Marxism is happening with breath taking speed, against the back drop of a passive, hapless sheeple, excuse me dear reader, I meant people. : : First, the population was dumbed down through a politicized and substandard education system based on pop culture, rather then the classics. Americans know more about their favorite TV dramas then the drama in DC that directly affects their lives. : : Then their faith in God was destroyed, until their churches, all tens of thousands of different "branches and denominations" were for the most part little more then Sunday circuses and their televangelists and top protestant mega preachers were more then happy to sell out their souls and flocks to be on the "winning" side of one pseudo Marxist politician or another. : : Then came Barack Obama's command that GM's (General Motor) president step down from leadership of his company. That is correct, dear reader, in the land of "pure" free markets, the American president now has the power, the self given power, to fire CEOs and we can assume other employees of private companies, at will. : : The Russian owners of American companies and industries should look thoughtfully at this and the option of closing their facilities down and fleeing the land of the Red as fast as possible. In other words, divest while there is still value left.
The proud American will go down into his slavery with out a fight, beating his chest and proclaiming to the world, how free he really is. The world will only snicker.

> I may be dumbed down by a substandard education system,
> but I know the difference between “then” and “than”...
Yes, but English is your first language.
If you know any foreign languages, especially those with different alphabets and/or diacritical marks, is your spelling always correct?
This may be true someday, only above the Mason-Dixon.
“the stuff about country, loyalty, justice is just a thin shell over the lust for control and power”
To the corrupt, sure. And possibly for a plurality/majority of the kind of people there are in congress, etc.
But there are still a great many for whom those things are very real, not because they are propagandized, but because it’s meaningful.
But also it depends how you define “country”. They are trying to define America as a “country of the world” where any and all have as much right to come, simply because most people immigrated a few hundred years ago. As if the shorter period of time makes America less of those people than India is of the Indians, or China of the Chinese. And there is not currently an answer to that out there, so it remains, like the default position, because no one is countering it.
> Must read? Why? When the author knows the difference
> between “than” and “then” let me know.
When you can render English into Russian better than the translator rendered the original Russian article into English, then I will take your smarmy comment seriously.
I’d hit all three of you with an amazingly clever comeback that would make you wish you’d have NEVER pointed out the folly of my post....if I could think of one.
Where’s my Prozac™ ?
Worth repeating....God help us all.
You would think even the socialists themselves would realize how bad it was when the peoples’ educational system has to be dumbed down before the sheeple can be expected to accept socialism.
Who wants a system that necessitate stupid people in order to be successfulyl implemented?
At what point are people too stupid to govern (or not worth governing)?
LOL!
Thanks for your self-deprecating good humor and sportsmanship.
Admirable!
We need more of that spirit among us.
“But there are still a great many for whom those things are very real, “
Absolutely, and some of these are even in the leadership.
It’s the power-seekers, the ones that will reach down from the throne to flick a CEO out, that find duty, honor, pride, Constitution, fairness, and justice to be either tools or impediments.
I noticed that Pravda used sheeple, now where have I read that before (lol)? The whole article is cleverly crafted to poke the USA and spread anti-American memes.
The author: Mat Rodina - from his blog:

“Russia is the only major European and world economy that has stood up for its citizens, not bought into the Marxists Free Trade and has prospered. In this, she (Russia) gives hope to groups of oppressed conservatives throughout the West and thus posses a direct threat to the body politic of the internationalists, who run those nations.”

observation-
This did not come from a Communist state brainwashed writer, they now use stringers for Pravda. He appears to revear Putin and love “Mother Russia”. He states he is Christian openly on his website.
Is he a nationalist, that could explain his contempt for the Internationalist who are selling-out all nations of the world.
The very idea that “conservatives” in the U.S. could have anything in common with the Russians. (We did before the Communist took over, as we did with China before the Communists took over)
Although this is written in English, the thought process is Russian and at times it appears that things are lost in the translation. (which is normal)
These are truly strange times we live in.
As far as anti-protestantism, I must say that a whole boatload of pastors/leaders in the protestant church are WAY off, lining their own pockets; and goodness, how many church-goers are all up on American Idol, but have no clue that Obambi has taken over the car industry, etc.
I HIGHLY recommend reading John Taylor Gatto's new book, Weapons of Mass Instruction. The battle has been waging in schools (well, it's no longer a battle, seeing as we keep turning our kids over to the system) for decades....i.e., the battle has been LOST in schools...
Look, Sotomayer's trips through Princeton and Yale have made sure she comes out an avowed racist.
I’ve been to Russia on four different occasions, the last one being in March, 2002.
The Russians are returning to their Russian Orthodox roots.
When I asked our Russian friend, a retired Russian marine, why there were so many orphans in the streets, he said they are often the offspring of Prostututes. When I asked why the Prostitutes did not seek the free governement-sponsored abortions, he bristled and answered, “There are some things even a WHORE would not do!”
I shared with him that, by my reckoning, our American politicians have a lower moral standard than the average Russian street whore.
He at least knows two languages well enough to write coherently and insightfully; or it is the mistake f the translator.
PICKY!
Strain at a not and swallow a camel.
Matthew 23:24
We have Chinese Communist Party members telling us this, we have Communist Party Russian Federation members telling us this, we have a former KGB agent (Putin) telling us this, and we even have Hugo Chavez telling us this.
But it is a state-sponsored, state-approved piece. Maybe Putin's Russia is planning a make-over while turning the tables on the U.S.
Here’s the author’s blog. He’s a Christian. Therefor all libs can ignore anything he says since all Christians are deluded.

What? This guy has better grammar than a lot of Americans who have attended 16 years of school. And I don't imagine English is his native language. So you refuse to listen to him for grammar errors?
I Love this guy!
Look at this excerpt concerning the attempt of the sodomites to have one of their filthy perverion parades in Moscow.
Simply put, we will not kneel at your <>, we will never surrender our faith or pervert it to accept your sin. We will simply be the dark age Russians, thriving in our Russia, while the <> West corrodes and collapses. And every time you come to enlighten us with your parades, you will meet the same police wagon waiting for you.
