Amen brother. I had been to Nam. Got hit and spent four months in hospital. Got out of the hospital and spent a few months on Kelly Hill at Fort Benning and off to Germany, where I was on the East-West German border pulling border patrol. I saw communism from a hot war to a cold war and the only difference was people in East Germany were dying slowly instead of fast as in Nam. Those people were still in the 1930s and 1940s, riding tractors made even then. Then I looked back into West Germany and saw men plowing their fields in brand new 1970s model tractors. Even some of the people on the East side of the border were using horses and mules to plow their fields. You could see at the end of the growing season the bounty that the West side was harvesting and the little gain the people on the East were yielding. Dying slowly, poor food, poor health, early deaths in the East. All the same. Under communism, you are ruled with an iron fist. The leadership get the best of the yield and the people starve. It is coming here. Even our local Walmart store’s shelves look like some of the pictures from the old Soviet Union’s store shelves. This past Monday we went to a local store in the city next to where we live. A larger Walmart than our store. On many aisles the shelves were nearly empty or were empty of products. I made the comment of such in the hearing of a Walmart worker and he said that they simply do not get what they order any more. They order and it is hit and miss if they get what the put in for. Mainly now, it is a miss. They may get half of what they order. Then people seeing what is happening, start hording, fear of severe shortages. It is COMING here. COUNT on it. If we do not get rid of this criminal mob in Sodom on the Potomac, we are going to be the next Venezuela!!!

My wife grew up in the former Soviet Union and was a Lenin Pioneer. Now she is a rightist and sees clearly what is happening here. I’m reading August 1814 by Alexander Solzhenitsyn and before Russia fell into the abyss, the colleges and universities were dominated by radicals. As I point out continuously, the hardcore Leftists dominate 99 percent of the colleges and universities in this country even here in Alabama. We are in a world of hurt.
