The Founding Fathers said we have given you a Republic if you can hold on to it. In the midst of the financial ruin, the corruption of our leaders, the endemic voter fraud and the worldwide destruction of the faith in America, we are done. The open abuse of the press has violated the very foundation of Freedom of the Press and is nothing more than a propaganda machine geared towards abject socialism for this country.
President Reagan's policy destroyed the Soviet Union by crippling their economy and bringing them to their knees, is it unrealistic, to see this is exactly what we are now seeing in America? The only factor missing is who is behind our destruction. Is it the reemergence of the Soviet Union? Is it Communist China? Is it the Nation of Islam, Iran? Or a combination of many exterior forces including the useful idiots of members of our own Congress? The face behind our destruction and defeat is a shadowy figure that will never be seen until our country is on its knees. The useful idiots will be brushed aside and the face will be revealed for all to see.
I have always been a person who has looked at the glass as being half full, I have taken heart in our small victory's of revealing political malfeasance in office only to see them remain in power. I have seen the people we have elected and believed in, go to Washington and become nothing more than washed out shell of why we elected them.. I have been naive in believing that our country would always be on the side of right and our that our Constitution would never be abridged. I, naively, believed that if we were on the edge of destruction, true patriots would emerge and fight back and save our nation. I have seen none, they are not there, all we have are politicians with their main goal is self, clutching to their power as a child would of his security blanket.
The final nail has been driven into the heart of our Republic when the our Congress, the protectors of our Constitution, the only fire wall we have to protect this Republic, bowed down on it's knees to the alter of socialism. They have ripped apart the very essence of the Constitution and rendered it just ancient paper with words of Patriots with hopes and dreams for our Republic. We have betrayed their trust, we have stood by silently and watched the incremental destruction of our country and put our future in the hands of the spineless, the power hungry, the undeserving and the corrupt.
Now that we are at our most vulnerable with our economy in shambles, the faith in our government shattered, the shadowy figures that harbor hatred towards our way of life can strangle the final breath out of this Republic.
Flame away but show me any light at the end of the tunnel because right now I need it.

Thank you. America had problems before and will get through this.
And if anyone else from this thread, armed and ready, thinks that you will get enough people away from “American Idol” and “Dancing with the Stars” to fight with you, you will be sorely disappointed.
Nice thought and I’ll get my dad’s little 22 out of the closet to help, but there are a lot of Americans who are comfortable with the situation right now.
The tv, lottery tickets and football games are much more important to them.
Maybe. Worth a try, let’s see if they get the message. Just cancelled my net-to-bank direct deposit. Now I just hope there will be someplace left to cash my paycheck.
Getting flamed by the Bushbots. (..though I have to correct the "8 years ago")
I cannot imagine these ‘crazies’ having productive lives beyond their keyboard fantasies.
[productive lives]
That sir, just might be coming to an end if our government is allowed to nationalize our banks and hijack our whole economy and put in their control.
Hmmmmm. Let's see:
verity hasn't created an about page.
verity has not added any links.
verity has not provided contact info.
And judging fromm all your recent posts on FR your raison d'etre is running from thread to thread and calling everyone else crazy. If it bothers you so to read other's opinions why don't you just go away. Like to DU where I'm sure they won't sound as crazy to you.
I am very frustrated as how to stop this train wreck. Calling and writing our reps and president has had no effect. It seems we have no alternatives aside from voting the bast***ds out of office, which will never happen. We need to come up with a legal plan of action. Any ideas out there?
I'm afraid we can only voice our opinion. In the meantime, the actual draft bill is available now for reading.
I'm off to study, no further comments until then

I knew there was a reason why I stopped religiously browsing FR.
Have some of you people been through a hyperbolic writing course taught by Chicken Little?
“where were all the principled conservatives 8 years ago when the GOP controlled all branches and spent like crazy?”
They were getting shouted down by GOP toadies who attacked anyone critical of the “conservative” Dubya.
Sigh.
We must at all times endeavor to persevere.
Imagine the difficult times others went through. The Great Depression, when the only serious intellectual thought was of socialist management of the economy.
Detente and Cold War, where it was felt inevitable to live in a half-communist world.
Never fear. The enemy is at the gates, but we can turn them back.
I sometimes wish we could split the country, one half for people who believe in the Constitution and the other made up of squishy country club RINOs and their lib cousins. I can dream, right?”
UH, this country is 20% real Constitution believers 40% squish RINOs and 40% liberals. Dont throw 80% of the country to the dogs. Better plan: Educate the squish believers to understand what is REALLY going on!
