Specialized skills fell aside as sustainment skills became critical. Artisans and artists were replaced by the jack-of-all-trades.

This will be the moment I was born for...

In other words: Our Freedom.....Our Society.....Our Way of Life.

No biggie to the Anti-Military, Anti-Constitution, Anti-America RATs that infest our country.

If we are to survive the terrorist threat, Iran must be obliterated by whatever means necessary and it must be very soon! The ghost of Neville Chamberlain rides before us!

Thomas Cahill has a book, 'How the Irish Saved Civilization,the Untold Story of Ireland's Heroic Role from the Fall of Rome to the Rise of Medieval Europe'.
This article states some of the exact points Mr. Cahill made is his discription of Rome's failures.

Loss of trade is not an issue for a nation that has the one resource that everyone needs, and enough of it to be self-sufficient.

There is no doubt the terrorists are the modern day barbarians. I think maybe we should consider liberating their oil before somebody gets hurt.

I just turned down an all expenses paid trip across the fruited plain because of terrorism fears. Having 6 incidents with US flights on Friday pretty much forced my decision (well that and the fact that it looks like All Out War in the Middle East is now all but inevitable). I have decided to cancel all my nonessential flights. What the author describes may already be occurring.

Screw artists and artisans. They tend to be left-wing wackos who are greasing the skids of America's fall.

Not all of them obviously but by and large.
