Keen observations, NE. Several excellent quotes in your article. Thanks for the link. Here's one I like:

"Americans should remember that, although we are the land of opportunity, those opportunities -- especially economic rewards -- come with sacrifice, not entitlement." Selina Zito

I don't have the resources, but I think we need a website for the CNGO that focusses more on solutions apart from what we can expect government to respond to. They know the truth of the matter, that the Republic may be history in a few weeks or months, but seem powerless to stop the erosion. Because of their low numbers and non-key positions, I'm sure.

Certainly work to put more conservatives in government, but that is going to take a long time. The panic people are feeling now -- and writing about, may be a sign that time has run out for remedy through the political process.

We're talking the survival of our national Sovereignty here. And perhaps our personal survival as well, for there are a number that will not go blindly into the night.

It's upon us, and I'm sure the uglies in California (and elsewhere across the nation) don't think what they are doing is just street theatre. It's just a warm-up before the 'games' to test their numbers and solidarity.

Glad you liked, if you want check out my other 'stuff' i was embedded on the Border last month and wrote about it, acutally have written a lot about the Border and the Immigration issues which is interesting since i live in Pittsburgh, but i contend what happens on the border does not stay on the border, it affects all of us

Certainly I'm all for doing what can be done.

Optimism has been proven to be much more successful and productive than pessimism. But hope in human effort will not succeed over the coming traumas and challenges.

I'm convinced that human efforts will ultimately prove to be grossly inadequate, at best.

Still, it's important to always do the best, most right thing one can . . . and, I think, to work as though we will succeed more than it appears that we might.

But hope in human effort is doomed to fail big time. The only fruitful, durable, productive hope will be that placed in God and His leading, Power, Spirit, Person.
