“keep poking the bear idiots and one day you will get the backlash from the American people that you deserve”.

You know, I have tried my best to remain above the anger and disgust I feel for the left. I actually believe in a two-party system, and I have always thought myself tolerant of the differing political opinions of my countrymen and women. We are all Americans I thought, so no matter our differences, we will always put our country first, because if we lose our country nothing else matters. All our arguments are for naught. We disagree, but we agree that we are Americans, that's the thing. We work to make our country better, and we never lose our love of country, or our optimism that the better days are yet ahead.

Over the last few years, I have changed my mind. I now believe that the left has gone too far, and that there is no leadership on the left that understands that this whole “America is bad” deal CAN get out of hand. And that if the pressure grows beyond a reasonable meter reading, something really nasty is likely to happen. Too many people are getting fed up with the constant tearing down of our country by our left leaning countrymen and women.

I think that we need to understand that those that play with fire often get burned. And I recall a Thomas Jefferson quote about the Tree of Liberty.

These are dangerous times we are living in Ladies and Gentlemen, not only in the larger world, but perhaps in our own backyards.

I see a bit of danger is the climate does not calm down a bit.

Am I wrong?

Unfortunately not

I'm a bit of a reactionary.But the left has waged war on the very fabric of american society.When groups like the ACLU use their undue influence in the courts and pervert the Constitution to get child molesters and rapists ect off.
When the media deliberately disclose classified info that could get US troops killed and deliberately dissimulate enemy propaganda and call it free speech.

When you have left wing Timothy McVeigh types like William and Ward Churchill, as tenured professors in major collages and protesters like the so called RNC welcoming committee using violence to prevent the right of political assembly and calling that and destruction of property and domestic terrorism "free speech".
we are heading toward the breaking point
I won't go into CAIR or George soros and his deliberate attempts to undermine our democracy or our efforts against terrorism . But such things as all the above could eventual lead to a civil war and military takeovers

No, you're most emphatically *not* wrong. We thought we were getting close during the Clinton years, but now? It's escalating, and escalating fast. Nobody knows what the touchstone is going to be, but the tinder is quite dry, and the resulting conflagration will be tremendous.

Insanity appears to be ruling the day, and "The Crazy Years" may well be just around the corner...
