"It’s not “we”, who has done these things. Jeesh, identify the enemy"

I didn't write the article, just posted it as I felt it might interest the good folks at FR.

But if you can single out the enemies for us all . . .

You are not the only one feeling apprehensive.
I have noticed a few news stories on the sudden rush to buy firearms. Apparently the gun shops are seeing record sales.
I suppose “fear of the unknown” is mostly the driving force but heck, what we do know doesn’t give me any warm-fuzzies either.
I have to admit, the hair is standing up on the back of my neck, too.
My guess is that all those things that the Dims have been raising Holy H@!! about; like domestic wiretaps, and secret military ops will be embraced by ZeroBama and used to wipe out his enemies.
As long as he doesn’t piss-off the MSM (I’m not holding my breath), we are in for a very un-civil, civil war.
Well, I must shuffle off to the gun store now. I just don’t know what else to do....pathetic, I know.

“I hope that’s ‘all’ there is to it...”

Blue, keep in mind also the re-institution of the “Fairness Doctrine” is coming: the suppression of the free speech of the loyal opposition.

Count me as concerned!

Extremely suspicious that the Fed would loan Two Trillion and then not tell where the money went.

Economic blackmail by _______ (name country)?

That make sense. Also explains the hush.

I am not sure from where you think you can draw such a ‘simple’ conclusion but it ignores the law and the recent provisions of the FDIC.

The fact of the matter is there is no oversight set up to monitor the decisions regarding taxpayer’s money. Oversight, although written into law, is not yet assembled and therefore there is no accountability. The ‘emergency’ has blindsided the public and their elected officials. This is indeed unsettling as a minimum.

Unless you have some factual basis (you don’t) to back up your oversimplified post, I will add you to the pile of those that post ignorance and add to that problem.

Both pictures have nearly all women. The bottom one in particular reminds one of the early screaming teenage Beatles fans. Almost enough to make one reconsider the 19th Amendment (grin)".

Hitler? Or Stalin? Or worse?

Take the time to watch this video. We were warned about this.

Some One very important is coming!

I brought this up to a friend who is far more knowledgeable in the Bible than I am and he now thinks I'm nuts. I think your correct although it's going to be a few more years. There's other pieces that will fall into place and those pieces will further distract those who do believe into turning a blind eye to the truth.

We are not finished yet. We have four times more energy than the Saudis. We have 4x in the lower 48 in shale oil, coal diesel, and North Dakota oil. We also have in the Alaskan permafrost clean gas crystals (see Investors Business Daily editorial posted here yesterday). Frozen natural gas crystals of hydrate.

http://www.ibdeditorial.com/IBDArticles.aspx?id=311472581618807

“Officials say the frozen gas accounts for 11.5% of the volume of known recoverable gas in the U.S. and could heat 100 million homes for a decade. The country currently uses 23 trillion cubic feet of gas a year for heating, agriculture and industrial uses, but will see demand rise 20% in the next decade, according to Energy Information Administration estimates.”

Thanks to Sarah pushing the pipeline, this fuel can be transported.

So we have the energy, the ability to grow more food than we can eat. This is all any country needs. Lower energy costs mean we can rebuild our manufacturing base. Dem policies have damaged this country. Look at O’s pals who are slumlord looting taxpayers and leaving AA people in misery.

We need to get criminal RATS voted out of office. Sadly we will have to wait until 2010.

If you have time, go to Leo’s web site and write a letter to SCOTUS - see samples under comments.

“”Call me a redneck, but I am proud to be one of those who cling to my gun and my religion. My prayers and my ability to shoot straight may be the only protection I’ll be able to offer my children in the coming dark days.””

Don’t be misled or baited by Hussein, he chose these words to berate his opposition very carefully. His idea is to undermine the opposition will by painting them as low-lifes. This is an age-old sneaking trick used since ancient times.

We can only hope!

(Not criticizing you personally...)

This is a key part that concerns me. Way too many people on both sides are shouting "bring it on!!!", are looking for a fight, are looking for a "they started it!" reason. Too much like WWI sparked by Duke Ferdinand. Too much like WWII sparked by Reichstag and Krystallnacht. A lot of people, otherwise undirected, looking for a fight ... with a few very clever people in the right place at the right time ready to take world-conquering advantage of them. Some nut takes the first tiny step over the line, and all he11 breaks loose - because so many want it to.

There's a reason post-WWII USA was so uplifting and productive: people had just been reminded what a he11 war is. Unfortunately, seems it's time to repeat just to get it all thru peoples' heads again.

How much ignorance can a country stand? There have to be terrible consequences when it reaches a certain level. But what level? And with what consequences, exactly? The answers to these questions are unknowable. But can we doubt that if we persist on the path we are on that we shall, one day, perhaps not too far into the distant future, find out the answers?
