With ObamaTRADE, the GOP heralded to SCOTUS,
that they just DO NOT CARE.

What followed, has been the imposition of all things Romney.

You’re not wrong. The only question that remains is my tagline. That’s all I want to know, and yet, no one has been able to answer it thus far.

I don’t disagree with the conclusion, but the reason we are being destroyed is that we let the crony corporatists seize control of the Republican party. There is no opposition party to evil now. Voting for the “lesser of 2 evils” has over the past 20 years, left us with nothing but evil.

You’re not wrong.

We elect republicans to control the senate and the house. Yet, it doesn’t matter.

We recently lost on ...

obamatrade (thanks republican leadership and chamber of commerce)
obamacare - supreme court ruling rewrites the law again.
illegal immigration - they’re dumping so-called “refugees” on us now too.
everything is whitey’s fault - list is too long.

We’re spiraling quickly down the tubes.

I desperately want to say you are wrong...

You are right; I continue to cling to a ragged thread of hope that we get a conservative fighter as POTUS.

Boldly battling the enemies without and within... CRUZ 2016!

You’re not wrong, just late to the party. IMO, the republic died when the Commerce clause was interpreted to empower the federal government with total control. Others may cite even earlier events. We live in a nation-state spending itself into oblivion.

Democrats fought like tigers filibustering judge nominations they didn’t like.
Too many Republicans rolled over like kittens to Democrats’ judge nominations.

So you’re right, and here we are with a command health care system and homosexualists having it their way, thanks to our RINO Uniparty “champions”.

This administration has been beating down America since day one. Today, it struck her death blow. Embrace husseins’ hope and change. It was well executed and we did nothing to stop it.

The reelection of FUBO signaled to me this country’s downfall. Everything that follows is just confirmation.

This Republic fought a war and survived. I don't agree with the SCOTUS decisions or Obama AT ALL, but put things in perspective.

The US survived revolution, Bleeding Kansas, Civil War, several depressions, Roosevelt, and even Woodrow Wilson.

You’re right and the first war this week had the usual south haters gleeful

It’s no accident it’s all at the same time

Well, we could decide to fight, for a change. We can wring our hands like fools, or we can fight like our survival depends on it. Mark Levin’s book on a states convention would be a good starting point. And tomorrow would be the right time to begin.

Major defeats inevitably tempt us to despair, but despair is foolish in times of defeat just as is excessive celebration and confidence in times of victory. Ultimately, conservative principles endure and rise again after defeat because those principles are grounded in lasting truths about human nature.

In addition, political matters are subject to changes of fortune as reaction sets in to the effects of bad policies. Thus Jimmy Carter and an era of economic decline and perilous retreat during the Cold War led to the election of Ronald Reagan and an extraordinary roll back of the burdens of taxation and government, a renewal of the American economy, and victory in the Cold War.

In simple terms, as bad as things are, we are but a few good elections away from reversing defeats into victories and setting a new course for the country.

At this point there is no political solution.

Vote R, vote D, don't vote at all - none of it will change our trajectory.

The republic is dead, what comes next is not entirely certain - I just hope it doesn't come with concentration camps for straight white males.
