Friend, you have your opinion and I mine. I respect you for your opinion. But, I firmly believe most of what we are experiencing now is OUR inability to deal with these things decades ago. While the progressives went into the schools and colleges and started doing this to our children, we sat on our butts thinking all was okay. We allowed this to happen because we were not diligent to what was going on. After Vietnam, everyone was just happy to get out of the war. Everone thought we were all going to big fat and happy. Then Watergate. Then Carter and his mess. Reagan did a lot to fix it. But then the progressives saw the threat of Reagan and the conservative takeover and they went into ballistic mode. We got Daddy Bush, a failure, and Klinton for two terms, another colossal failure and then GW for two terms that may have had good points, but his spending at the end started us down this Obama road. Now they are ruling and I see no hope to ever get it back under control. Not when 48% are on free stuff. They have that 48% vote. All they need in any election is 2.1% and they win, 50.1% to 49.9%. They win. There simply are not enough of us to fight this good fight. That is why I do not place my hope in man. I place my hope in my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. ONLY He will fix what ails this world. Repentance is what this nation needs. Without it, His protective hand continues to be withdrawn. That is how I see it. And, to all respects to other opinions, you have yours and I have mine.
