Yes, sir - and as we say in these parts, "there's a long row to hoe" - a whole lot stacked up against us. The media - in all it's manifestations, the sort of curriculum in our K-12 schools, the institutions of higher learning that are determined to churn out socialist automatons year after year, the decades-old problem of the flood of money being laundered through "non-profits" to support un-American activities - case in point, if you haven't seen it already >

There should be more, always be more. I know life has many, many responsibilities that take up time and treasure, but anyone who considers him or herself a citizen, has a duty to do what they can whenever they can to try and promote and preserve the unique and precious way of life we have here in this corner of the planet. Places like this FR site contribute much, even if it's just folk like me sitting on my butt in front of a keyboard, but information is shared, things can always be found to do.
The communists, socialists, leftists, et al are a patient bunch, piece by piece by piece like the Fabians prefer, is the way our lives are being eroded. Reformation could counter their "revolution", but is there even any way that realistically could be done, and anyone who could do it anymore. And if there is, the opportunity is slipping away with each passing day.
You and the Mrs. take care, too.
