I'm awake.

Know what I can do about this? Jack sh*t.

Know why? Because no one has the spine to do what needs to be done in sufficient numbers to fix what's wrong. I can go out and do my part, but I am only one man.

With that in mind, and because of that sentiment...

Voting isn't going to change this.
Op-eds aren't going to change this.
Third Parties aren't going to change this.
Law-suites aren't going to change this.

Only a thorough, and bloody, house cleaning will restore the Republic. That whole “tree of liberty” thingie the Founders prattled on about that no one actually believes in any more.

Well, other than throw-back knuckle-draggers like me.

Seems to know what he’s talking about, and it’s not very pleasant.

I can see his points across the broader spectrum, but what can we do other than vote, pray, lobby, and prepare for the worst to happen?

If somehow we could fund the start of a new free press that would be a good start but how can we do that.

I would expect Obummer and Hillary’s goons to act this way, but what is really bothering me is that GOPers are not only rolling over but defending Obummers tyrranical misdeeds.

Can’t agree more. The dumbing down of Amerika has been going on too long. There are too many people that are brain dead to what is happening to our once great nation.

If you don’t see this as the communist take over, foriegn influence ruination it really is you are blind.

The most effective way to bring the US to it’s knees is to prop up the hard core lefties that have been empowered and given the reigns.
If I were the Saudis or any other enemy of US, I would do everything in my power to put people like Hellery and the zero in office.

What can we do?

Anything less and you are just kidding yourself.

Certainly there are no quick fixes for something that’s been decades in the making. The lefties have used incrementalism to get us to where we are now and that’s probably what it will take to get us back. Unfortunately, as the author suggests, the country may well have to go through a deep valley to get there.

This article is nothing but whining.

We all know he is right, we all know there is jack we can do about it.

That whole vote them out business is crap, we can vote one out and then by the time we a couple more in, the original ones have been corrupted.

Washington DC is a cesspool of greedy, selfish a-holes and that’s pretty much that.

I don’t want to be right. I’d much rather be wrong on this.

Because if I’m right, then I really am looking at being a “dead corpse” some time relatively soon.

I’m not afraid of that prospect, but I’d rather watch my kids grow up to have kids of their own and live in peace.

This decision is no longer mine to make... Balls in their court.

Freedom dies here, it might be another thousand years before the idea takes foot again.

This Snowden thing sure is demoralizing. The guy lays it all out there and half of the people I thought would be outraged at gross Consitutional overstepping he detailed are calling him a traitor.

This after everything else we've learned about this administration.

I agree, we need to prepare for the worst.

Don’t sweat it so much. God told us this would happen. And it’s not forever, and when it’s all over things will be better than they ever were. Unfortunately we’re all going to have to go through the fire first. It’s actually a very interesting time to live in... if you can keep your faith and perspective about it.
