Back in the Clinton era, I thought that , if necessary, we would fight tooth and toenail for our freedom[s]. Time has proven me wrong. Not only have we not fought, but a majority of voters demanded, via their votes, that a muslim have the rule over them. I no longer hold the illusion that we will defend our freedoms by any method necessary. I now only hope that the status quo can be maintained until I leave this World. I wish that I could tell you that we will tolerate no more loss of our freedom, Bob, but I can’t. The only thing I can for sure say is that I will not go into a Government Camp. If they come for us before I die a natural death, I will die fighting them in my front yard.
I’m with you on that- I was very disappointed when obama won the first election- but chalked it up to a naive country ‘wanting change’ - and figured they would see the light and vote him out once he began to ruin the country- they didn’t- and my heart sunk- I had lost quite a bit of hope after first election, but the second election really drove a steak through hope- especially after the fact that the prices of everything rose so much, gasoline was over $4 gallon- anbd traditionally, the people never voted someone back in when prices soared like they did- and the threat of unconstitutional acts against the public by the president- I thought sure America would finally get it- but nope- they didn’t- A quick story durign htat time to illustrate why I felt America had perhaps permanently lsot it’s way
A Fox reporter asked a woman why she voted for obama, and she got this crap eating grin on her face, shrugged her shoulder, and said “So i can get me some of that obama-money” and when he asked her where she thought that money would come from she got the same crap eating grin on her face, shrugged her shoulders gain and said “It’s just free, that’s all”
I knew then that Americans were willing to give up their freedoms for a chance at that ‘obamamoney’- thinking he’d take care of them- Sure, they got obamaphones, and they got perhaps a hundred dollars or so- but what they had to pay in higher prices, skyrocketting fuel prices, and now healthcare costs far outweighed what little they ‘got for free’
It’s just very sad that they aren’t smart enough to figure this out- they get a hundred ‘for free’ but lose a couple of thousand, yet still think they are ahead?
A Republican winning helped restore a little faith in America’s ability to do the right thing, but we’ll see how the midterm elections go- IF America doesn’t kick the liberals bums out then we could be in trouble in the next election- we’ll see how the midterms do- hopefully the pendulum has swung back to the right-
