The elitists have long sought a republic run by their ilk to replace our constitutional one, and they are almost there.
The pattern they're seeking to duplicate, to overrun the will of the people, is a copy of what happened in the Social War of the late Roman Republic. At its end, Marius and his Senate bestowed citizenship on his non-Roman Italian allies Mexicans and Islamists. Sound familiar? (Only there is no record of the ancient Romans having been betrayed by a Tri-lateral commission that early. The Triumvirates came later.)
It took a Sulla to bring an end to him. But the damage Bush and Obama Marius had done could not be undone. Rule by caesar was coming.
Other than that, FReepers: Have a nice day. :)
History might not repeat, but it sure rhymes a lot.
