When I think of blaming the gov for not telling us the truths of what is happening, I take a minute and realize that the American citizen does not want the truth. The truth to them is what is happening in sports and the movies.

I'm still pretty young, and I just recently figured this out. A few years ago when I was a bit more naive and idealistic, I thought I could wake people up by trying to show them the "truth". It turned out that I just came off like a raving lunatic. I ended up alienating a lot of good friends and family because I came off as so smug, superior, and self-important to them. I regret what I did, but I have learned a valuable lesson. Almost everyone wants to stay asleep. Trying to run around convert everyone like a frothing street preacher just pisses off those who are most important to you. I've found the best thing to do is to just be a good listener and you can make more positive progress that way. You cannot change anyone, but you can nudge them in the right direction if their heart is already open to a new path.

The local FM music stations are owned by the same company.

Thanks to the RINO members of the FCC commission, the rules governing ownership percentages in broadcast markets were severely relaxed, allowing Clear Channel to get their hands on almost 50% of the stations. I suspect this will only get worse, and we can expect broadcast media to be mostly controlled by one megacorp. It pretty much is already, because CC owns the biggest and most popular stations in each market. I just pray to God that the Internet can remain fairly unregulated. Although I seriously doubt that will happen either.

Somehow, citizens have to face the fact that we are in a fight to the death, for our country and indeed the entire world.

I don't know how bad things are going to have to get before Joe Sixpack realizes this, but it might have to be a literal invasion.

I think of the young lady, who had married a Pakistan man and told me that her mixed blood children were the future of the world, she truly believed that to save the world, we need to be one race, not the many we have now. Those old papers at etext.org tell the entire story, the communists say that the borders of the United States must remain open, that America needs the different races.

With all due respect, as someone who is mixed race and the son of a legal immigrant, I have to disagree. Race is not the problem. Culture is the problem. I'm all for people of any race legally immigrating to the US, but damn it, they need to assimilate into our culture, not try to turn us into their little turd-world country (to borrow from Savage). We are having culture wars, plain and simple. I'm am American first and foremost, not a Hypenated-American. We need to retain our American culture, which is where we derive our strength. The libs/commies are eroding our culture at an alarming rate, same-sex marriage is a case in point. "Tolerance" and getting us to accept all of these other cultures is just another way to run the USA into the ground. Look at that picture of the Shi'a who cut his baby's head with a sword. Are we supposed to let that happen here in the US because it's a part of this person's culture?

I nut cut and paste with this machine, so will refer to your last paragraph.

Race is not the problem Culture is, that is very true.

My family is also of many races, I have no problem with "natural race mixing", I do have a problem with people who have been brainwashed to the point that they think that it must be done.

I would not care to live in a world that was only one race.

One of the joys of my life, has been in learning about the traditions of other cultures.

What is happening to our country is so unreal to me, that at times I have trouble even understanding what I do know.

It is good that you are the son of a legal immigrant, that is what built this country in the beginning, to me they are the backbone of America.

I can even understand the illegal immigrant, as a mother, I would hope that I would have attempted to flee Mexico or Cuba and bring my family to America.

It is the communist need to rule the world that I object to.

It is even the type of person who would follow the communist path that scares me.

In attempting to understand the "Not wanting to face the truths of today", I am reminded of a friend, who was told by a neighbor that her husband was out with another woman.

My friend said to me " I wish she had not told me, as I will not leave him, I married him for life and will live my life with him". She did over 50 years. But it does describe the average person, they do not want to know.

It is not only the radio stations, do a check on almost any type of sales company and you will find that in the past ten years, all the companies have come under one ownership.

Breakfast cereals are one that comes to mind, Gas companies are another and our household utility companies.

We are coming under subtle control.

Yes, I have a bad name in my family, always yelling about the commies and being told "Reagan defeated them, the wall is down".

If I could get out, I would be tempted to go around posting the communist manifesto on all the local bulletin boards.

Worth repeating. A great post!

Great posts as always. As far as: I don't know how bad things are going to have to get before Joe Sixpack realizes this, but it might have to be a literal invasion.

Unfortunately, I'm afraid Joe Sixpack is too fat drunk and stupid to realize that invasions can be fought quite well and countries can be brought down without weapons, as you and I and everyone here already knows. The prospects aren't bright.

Good post! The public education system has taken this tolerance of the absurd to a new level with it's indoctrination.
