We are no doubt a long ways towards the situation that brought about Communism in Russia and the Nazi in Germany, but we have a few things they don’t: A Constitution that gives us freedom of speech and the guns to back it up. While many would say the Constitution is being stomped on, and it is, the one thing needed is the moral high ground and we have that.
We have the moral high ground with teh Constitution, and it’s a hill worth dying on, but our side won’t win if we don’t fight back. Obama is using a slower version of Hugo CHavez’s formual: push the limits, and when you are not stopped, go another step. The process accelerates as you know. It’s time to throw stops, or get steamrolled.
