I agree. As far as how much time we have left? If we lose the White House in 2012 and 2016, it's over. Obama is simply a puppet who would be replaced by another puppet if necessary. Holding Congress past 2016 won't matter. The leftist White House occupant will stack SCOTUS and it won't matter what legislation passes. They'll overturn it.

We have six years before it all hits the fan.

and that is why I'm thankful I got back to my home state and into the boonies long ago.

But I worry sick for my kids and grand-kids - and generations beyond. I fear a 80 year siege like after the Bolshevik Revolution

but I also hold up hope in that WE are not a country of 'gunless' people. Despots have, heretofore, always had to disarm the populace before the takeover.

Lord knows they've tried - but alas. it seems the ONLY thing this regime has been good for is the sale of guns and ammo ;o)

An armed country - particularly one as big as America - will not be easily put down. And the number of people who are preparing for hard times - including gov't control of food (and they are on the brink of that, I could tell you how - but that's another story) - there' WILL be many people who will not bow down quietly.

It's already "hit the fan." And now we've just had a tectonic-shift of an election last November, and our new control of the House is going to result in what? A measly $100 billion in cuts -- out of a $3 trillion budget!!!

And that's the best our new "leadership" can do, at least until the next election cycle. But there is simply no more time to wait for 2012, no escape. What lies before us now is default on our debt or hyperinflating our way out of it. We'll be well down the road to either one before the 2012 cycle.
