Well, I know we are all down today, but I do believe in Gd and know that He always has, of all paths available, at least one Right Path. There is never no right path. There MUST be a way to get the truth to the Americn people, to counteract the Jon Stewart mocking.

Maybe we need to capture the public’s attention with some “free goodies” of our own.

The only one I can think of is to create a freedom or constitution party out of the ashes of the republican one, and tell everyone that our platform is FREEDOM OF LIFESTYLE for all, with focus on conservative, small government principles, strong military, low taxes. Drop all our focus on social issues. The only one remaining in our platform would be pro life — for all. The elderly, the unborn, the handicapped. But freedom of lifestyle means people are free to marry cats and dogs, and people are free to live lives according to their religions, cults, gurus, or fancy. They are free to add as many different genitalia to their bodies as they wish. But we live according to the constitution.

I am a believer as well. I strive daily to put my faith and trust in Him. I am secure in my salvation (and forever grateful for it), I'm just a bit peeved (and when you really come down to it, being a bit whiny today) about the conditions that I will be living out my earthly life in, and how terribly deprived our children (and potential grandchildren) will be of experiencing the level of freedom and liberty that we had at least for the first couple of decades of my life.

For myself, it took me well over a year to get over the profound guilt that I experienced when I finally woke up and got my head out of the proverbial bucket of sand. I realized that I was living “fat and happy” in a very selfish and self-centered (and IGNORANT) existence. I count myself among the millions of us that have failed this country, and our children. I still do, but have come to realize that guilt (and all of its terrible burdens) does not come from Him, but rather the enemy. So for now I am pursuing a bit of a dual path, trying daily to work toward laying up my treasures in Heaven, and doing what I can to make the rest of our days on this Earth as painless for my family. That's about all I can do at this point.

The kind of Freedom/Constitution-based party that you mention would be great, basically it should be a party that works continually to guide this nation back toward its Constitutional roots. I guess that is what I see being necessary after a hard reset, if it could happen somehow before a reset, that would be wonderful, I just can't see it taking root at this point in time. I would greatly love to be proven 100% wrong about that!
