Every step is to personally ready my home and family to live as long as possible while under a physical state of siege. Keep family and friends close, store supplies and defense items, pray that God allows America to remain a Free Republic, but be ready to defend what is precious. As Sarah Connor says at the end of “Terminator”, there is a storm coming.
I bought a 13 acre farm in central Kentucky last year. I can be self sufficient there. Although I originally agreed to the purchase back in 2008 as a place to retire, part of the reason (maybe 15%) was to have a place in case of meltdown. By the time I closed the deal last August it was 80% of the reason.
Other than that, I watched the first two installments of the HBO special John Adams last night. These times are looking to be almost as interesting as his were. But I don’t want to be hanged by King George.
I am sharpening my pitchfork and gathering tar and feathers.
I’m still searching for a rail large enough to accommodate all the criminals.
To clarify, I believe this thing will collapse of its own wieght. I want to be there to help the Phoenix to rise from the ashes for my progeny. I don’t believe there is a thing we can do to stop it. It is simply too big. It is also international.
So what are you trying to say? I vote and try to vote for good candidates or the lesser of two evils. I vote for fiscal conservatism and social conservatism because to do otherwise leads to fiscal malpractice. Again what are you trying to say?
I don't believe that opportunity is going to present itself.
I'm praying these are the end-times.
If so, cling to God, family, and to what America once was.
“or the lesser of two evils.”
There’s your mistake. “Lesser of two evils” = evil.
it’s not a mistake, the only other option is to not vote.

Well, I will continue to take what actions I can. Sometimes the situation limits your choices. For instance, in 2008 we had a damned poor choice of candidates after Fred Thompson dropped out. I agreed with Jim Robinson and Rush Limbaugh that a vote for McCain was better than third party or letting Obama win, especially after Palin became the VP choice, because I saw exactly how bad Obama would be. But we were stuck with McCain. He certainly wasn’t our choice.
There are a variety of things that can be done. But I think the first order of business is to pray to God that He will come to the rescue of our country in its difficulties.
There will always be SOME corruption in politics. There was some even at the founding. Our problem today is that the whole culture has become morally corrupted and hijacked by fascists and leftists. There’s a difference between politicians taking a few favors and politicians trying to destroy the entire economy so they can have more power. There’s a difference between sinners in a basically Christian society and sinners who now argue that their way is the best way and the Christian morality has to go.
So. I have always prayed that God would enlighten our political leaders when I go to church. Now I pray that He will come to the rescue of our country and convert our people back to a proper sense of right and wrong. Because you can’t have a sound political system as long as perhaps half the country no longer really knows the difference between right and wrong, and have let political correctness caste them adrift from the needed foundation of reality and truth.
Vote for someone else other than the two evils.
I’ve experienced the frustration of realizing that people don’t care what’s true and what’s right. We who know different have to remember that we don’t embrace truth and morality because it wins us friends (or elections) but because it’s right, and there is no moral alternative-even if we’re damned in this life for doing so.
Drowning Pool has an effective remedy to this problem.
Things are changing. Remember, THEY LIE! When they say “I have the votes” they are not even close. Then they say “no new taxes, THEY LIE! Don’t believe anything they say. Obama is in a bubble where everyone tells him he’s great, he’s wonderful, he’s right. I’m sure that the Czar of Russia heard the same from his advisers, until he was overthown. I’m sure the king of France was the same. Maybe even Saddam Hussein. Look what happened in all these circumstances. I think Obama should take the notion of history repeating itself seriously, otherwise overthrow is iminent. The will of the people, if strong, eventually prevails.
all I have is to call the various congress critters to voice my concerns, talk to average folks to push the grass roots, and protect my earnings in order to weather the storm that is coming
me and mine come first.
country second
Again, one more time.....What are you trying to say?
Oh boy, thanks for the insight.
You have to vote your conscience. If there are two evils running against each other even though one of them may be the “lesser of two evils”, I vote for someone who I know is not evil. That’s all I meant. I vote independent or Constitution Pary or whoever is not evil.
By voting for the “lesser of two evils” you are just perpetuating the corruption and abuse.
I sleep well at night knowing that I did not vote for evil.
Evil is evil, period.
