(I wrote this shortly after Obama's 2012 election to this disastrous second term)
I haven’t slept well since the alleged “election”. Last night, it finally came to me how the last gasp will come.
But first, some personal history.
For over 50 years I’ve been watching – and doing all I could to resist – the infectious rot of fascism, socialism, communism, progressivism (or whatever the name loony left plasters over their insane totalitarian/utopian social engineering scheme for perfecting mankind).
My family and I – and a handful of others it has been my privilege to know – have invested precious and finite time and resources in the struggle to bring those around us to understand that if the left succeeded and captured our major institutions (the media, the courts/legal system, the churches and the schools and colleges), most Americans would not like the outcome. I predicted that if more Americans didn’t join the fight to halt that process, many of them would wake one morning to a very different nation. That morning came the day after Obama’s election in 2008. The situation became even more grim on November 6th, 2012.
In the last 2 decades, it became clear to me that we were losing that struggle as those major institutions gained ground among the growing class of those either employed by or dependent upon the expanding welfare state. My way of emotionally coping with that was to tell myself that if the majority did, indeed, lust after a socialist welfare state, well then, let’s bring it on and let them have it good and hard. Rub their noses in it. Shove it down their throats!!
At the same time, I continued to foolishly tell myself that there were still enough honest-to-God adults out there who, once they had a taste of a totalitarian command state regime, would reject it. I refused to consider that so many citizens (and I use the term loosely) would come to love and embrace the thing enough to sustain it and prolong the economic and personal agony history teaches always attends such despotic systems.
Alas, I was wrong.
The question now is how far will this go? And, if it DOES result in the death of the IDEA of America set forth by the Founders and most of us 70 somethings knew and loved as kids, what will it look like?
Here’s how I see it going down…and I MEAN GOING DOWN.
Thanks to the critically thought impaired youth and adults and welfare constituents (not to mention massive voter fraud), Obama has another term in which to continue his ongoing destruction of the private sector economy begun in 2009. That process will be nearing completion around the same time thousands of American troops will be returning home from the Middle East. They will be coming home to a decimated economy having no PRIVATE SECTOR jobs for them. Most of them will join the ranks of the millions of unemployed civilians already drawing government “benefits”.
It’s anyone’s guess how long it will take, but these returning military – especially those with families they are unable to care for – will reach a point of desperation they will find intolerable.
Comes then Obama with his militarized version of FDR’s Works Project Administration, offering them jobs (paid, of course, in depreciating Federal Reserve notes, but, hey, since they got them first they still had some value) in what may be called the “National Defense Force”. (My choice would be the “Brown Shirts” but it was taken many years ago.) To support themselves and their families, many of those troops will eagerly sign on. As ex-military, they won’t need much training for their new duties. But they WILL need a fair amount of “re-education” (aka indoctrination).
And here’s where it gets sticky: Although these folks did swear a solemn oath to God to defend the Constitution, most of them, as it was when I did so when joining the Air Force in 1962, have little or no knowledge or understanding of that document or its meaning. It was only after I left the service that I began my study of the Founders’ vision for us. Those who understand the Constitution, once signed on, they will be subjected to a subtle or not so subtle brainwashing that the Constitution is no longer the governing American document and they will be required to “follow orders” from on high and insubordination will be dealt with most harshly.
Now whatever will these folks be used for? Might I suggest you go back and review the history of Germany after the 1919 Treaty of Versailles? That treaty and the impossible war reparations imposed on an economically destroyed Germany for its role in WWI drove the German people to their knees and made the rise of Adolph Hitler or someone just like him inevitable.
Now come forward to today and Obama’s purposeful destruction of the American economy and full on efforts to drive the American people to their knees and you will understand how possible, perhaps inevitable, will be the coming cries from a huge segment of the population here to “do something” to restore us to more normal lives.
And that’s when it will move far beyond sticky: At that point, many Americans will physically resist Obama’s thrust to finalize the tyranny George Soros and his other socialist backers and his welfare constituents put him in the White House to produce here!
But, say you, American troops wouldn’t fire on their neighbors? Go back and study the War Between the States. Some of that was brother against brother. And Obama and his thugs are at least as cunning as the Soviets when they crushed the Hungarian, Czech and other revolts: You simply send in troops from thousands of miles away so they won’t have to shoot their neighbors. Now you know why fedzilla has ordered millions and millions of rounds of HOLLOW POINT .40 cal and 5.56mm ammunition!
Folks, this promises to get very, very ugly. Modern weaponry and military technology will make unpleasantness with King George look like a brief skirmish compared to the coming “trouble”.
If this scenario unfolds in anything close to what I’ve predicted, we’re going to be in a time for choosing sides.
And it may be upon us far sooner than any of us believe.

BUMP!
>> All those of us who DO THINK and REMEMBER the America we have allowed to slip into the abyss of tyranny had better SHOW UP and VOTE.<<
Prepare for “I ain’t gonna vote for no gol-darned eGOP gay-loving, abortion-supporting Republican no matter HOW BAD the Democrat candidate is and how badly it will hurt the country!”
Followed by the arithmetically-challenged statement “no vote at all or a vote for some 3rd party is NOT a vote for the opposition!”
Despite the damage 2012 (and probably 2008) brought us from just such “thinking.”
Just warning you ahead of time.
I’m all about taking down the GOPe but saving America is more important.
I want Jefferson but my choices are Ford or Stalin.
I’ll vote for Ford.
At least they didn’t take the bailout

Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping!
To get onto The Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping List you must threaten to report me to the Mods if I don't add you to the list...
Ferguson x 1000
You won't even be able to watch it on TV, because the mental midgets that control the media.
Really?
Even when the majority decides that enough is enough?
have little or no knowledge or understanding of that document or its meaning
I did my best while I was in. I gave a copy of the Constitution to all my Soldiers and quizzed them on it periodically.
>> Modern weaponry and military technology will make unpleasantness with King George look like a brief skirmish compared to the coming “trouble”.
Asymmetrical civil war could make for some gross unpleasantness on “their” side too. For one small example, “they” have families, staffs, friends, associates, etc. and with the rise in social media, those relationships are discoverable.
I don’t want to see it come to that. I’d prefer to see a widespread Christian revival that increases the character of our Low Morals Electorate to the point where we throw the scoundrels out.
But if it comes down to civil war between a federal tyrant and a population armed with a billion (!) guns, it’s far from a slam dunk, no matter how many apache helicopters they have at their disposal.
Yes, I believe we're living in the end times --- at the very beginning, but the end times nonetheless.
American troops wouldn’t fire on their neighbors?
Also remember the bonus army after WWI when they routed out of DC.
I think, if we had that kind of a ‘majority’ sentiment in America... there wouldn’t BE a Ferguson.
yep, the mental midgets watch and read themselves into their death throes. Will be a fitting end for they and theirs. A beauty that the People will not grieve.
You have captured and expressed my thoughts completely and succinctly...Thank You!
I want Jefferson but my choices are Ford or Stalin.
I’ll vote for Ford.
Exactly!
Look like? Pretty much been in them since 1970’s ...
TYVM!
