When things start getting to me as they frequently do these days, I feel the same way you seem to.

None the less, we have or will soon come to a tipping point where we are left with only one choice. Not that the buggy whip industries of today won't fight our making that choice, but what will it matter if people simply quit wanting buggy whips.

We're almost to that point now, with obama, and to some degree the good ol' GOPe, representing the buggy whips, and who can blame them for fighting the inevitable?

But it won't matter in the end. It will just make the transition a bit harder, but no less inevitable.

Personally, it's the transition and people fighting to maintain the status quo of failure that scare me.

All that absolute power they've enjoyed for such a long time has done exactly as predicted and a quick check of the weather radar says this could be a very rough squall line to fly through.

Buckle up and cinch it down tight!

Thanks for the great reply and thanks for the quotes on your home page. Particularly those from George Washington. I have much of his farewell address on mine, especially the parts concerning political party's.

It seems both entrenched political party's have a death grip on acquiring and maintaining the power and wealth that comes with it. I hoped the American people would figure that out, but unfortunately and I misquote directly from Benjamin Franklin, this republic with government of, for, and by the people will only last until the people can vote themselves anything they want.

Have I lost all hope? Not all simply because I place my ultimate faith in God, but I have little faith left in the men that lead and would lead us.
