We might restore the Republic out of the ruins of the big government nanny state, but forget about elections or democracy. We are finished.

You make excellent points. The country is finished and we'll never see anything like it again in our lifetimes. To paraphrase Reagan, we are the last best hope for freedom in the world. When the U.S. is done, where do you go? As for a Republic rising out of the bankrupted nanny state...forget it. It took the likes of Washington, Madison, Jefferson , Franklin and Adams to create this one, and I don't see any of their kind on the political horizon.

Sorry to be so depressing but I've been really down since Tues, and I plan on doing what the rest of the country obviously does, sit back, watch reality TV, refuse to be informed and just vote for whoever promises the most "free stuff".

Yes, it makes me indescribably sad. Rank and file conservatives had the heart to win, but we were failed by our so-called leaders. Now those leaders cant wait to make a deal with Obamugabe on taxes, immigration, etc... Sellouts all.

I plan to keep my head down, make as much money as I can, take care of myself and those I love, and wait for the welfare checks to stop. Only then can we think about restoring a once great country.

I’d love to say that you’re both wrong but you are only too right. My parents escaped from the Communists only to be here again. Everything you both said is true, imo.

They already came for our world’s finest healthcare and are in the process of destroying that. I fought it as hard as I possibly could, to no avail as Comrade Giffords threw her district under the bus.

I feel like one of the last people standing/working in my town and I’m not exaggerating. Half of this the town is on welfare and/or meth/crack. After, they seize my 401K and the last American jobs in my company are done, I too am turning into a looter parasite. (ok, probably not really but at least going to minimal work, just enough for the mortgage and pets)

I’ve never collected one dime of anything, am penalized for not having offspring (especially the anchor baby kind that attend all the schools around here), and have been paying in (aka taxed in their Ponzi schemes) for umpteen years. I’m over being their slave while the rest of the moochers sit around with their greedy paws out for more of our money.
