Liberalism (leftism) has been destroying this country systematically and incrementally for DECADES. Do you really think people are going to "rise up" now, after everything that has happened? I doubt it. The people are asleep and dreaming. Liberalism has doped them into oblivion and obliviousness. We few here are all that's left of the mentality and values that made this country great.
We allowed the press to become pro-leftist, anti-liberty, AND anti-Christian. Our first mistake. We allowed the leftists to indoctrinate our children in public schools over the past five decades. Our second mistake. We then allowed the leftists to slime their way into the highest office, not once, but twice now. Our last, but probably fatal, mistake.
Since November 2006, and especially over the past five months, this country has been on a rapid downslide into destruction, led by the known socialists/communists in our government. What makes you think anyone will give a damn to "do anything", much less rise up, about it now?
Unless you can think of a way to wake the idiot majority of Americans up from their la-la-liberal-land slumber, I'm afraid we are doomed.
“Do you really think people are going to “rise up” now, after everything that has happened?”
Not my point. I wasn’t discussing whether people are going to rise up now, I stated “MUST RISE UP”.
The negativism in your post reminds me of the Liberal in the sitcom throwing her arms into the air and screaming “I give up” when confronted by total insanity.
There are options such as not giving up. That is the option I will persue.
We then allowed the leftists to slime their way into the highest office, not once, but twice now.
The evolution of the revolution began with President Woodrow Wilson in the early 1900's. Next was FDR who accelerated the process under the guise of ending The Great Depression. Obama is mimicking FDR to a great extent. Then LBJ outdid FDR. Next there was Jimmy Carter and then Slick Willie before we got to where we are.
Unfortunately, this administration seems to be the Left's best opportunity and they aren't wasting it. They are no longer trying to use stealth and take baby steps, they are openly ramming their agenda through.
However, now is not the time for apathy and pessimism, as justified as they may seem. If we don't do all we can to make our voices heard and stop this now we won't have another chance short of an uprising. So, write and call to politicians, newspapers, TV and radio stations, and attend all the political events you can. Also, make advertisers and stores know your distaste when they back the Left/Democrats. Don't give them your money.
There are enough of us out here to make the difference. We just need to let the rest know it.
