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.
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.
You are so correct. Amen.

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.
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.
You and I seem to have a acheived the same level of ‘pissed-offness’.
Been saying that for years now (see the tag line.) Preach it my brother from another mother! Maybe a few more will wake up.
The Capitol will be a battleground someday in the not too distant future at the rate this country's going. Not that I relish that statement (I do not..) it's just that it's painfully obvious to some of us what it's actually going to take to put this country back on the right course.
The sooner it happens, the better IMO. (Again, I don't say that with any glee, I say that in the most sober and somber of ways.)
