Karl is greatly underestimating the lengths the liberal socialist press will go in protecting their Fuhrer.

I totally agree. The drive-bys will go to bat for this guy no matter what he does or what is found out about his past from now until doomsday (which may not be too far off).

Madoff defunded the Left, in general, and the economic downturn is putting their press out of business as well. Today USA Today (Gannett) went down.

Our ranking as a "source of news" is climbing.

Your are oh so correct. America is in uncharted territory. We've been through tough times, some much tougher than others, but we've never confronted something like this.

The new President is surrounded by people who do not like the country that elected him. They have put up with it until now only because they were convinced that sooner or later they would be in a position to change America to fit their ideas of what a country should be.

That time has come for them. And to make matters worse they have the MSM firmly behind them.

Abraham Lincoln said it well in 1838, over 150 years ago, when addressing an Illinois gathering of young men:

“At what point shall we expect the approach of danger? By what means shall we fortify against it? — Shall we expect some transatlantic military giant, to step the Ocean, and crush us at a blow? Never! — All the armies of Europe, Asia and Africa combined, with all the treasure of the earth (our own excepted) in their military chest; with a Bonaparte for a commander, could not by force, take a drink from the Ohio, or make a track on the Blue Ridge, in a trial of a thousand years.

At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer, if it ever reach us, it must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide.”

I fear it has sprung up amongst us. And the very people who for so many years helped keep it from getting a foothold in our country have now been very instrumental in bringing it to fruition.

God help us, literally.

Here's a PS to my earlier post with the quote by Lincoln, it's the audio of the speech as presented in Disney's Hall of Presidents:
Mr. Lincoln says it well!
