Actually, the last thing I worry about is another election.
It appears what ails the US extends across party lines.

The US is diseased, and it appears the sheeple think the only cure is free stuff.

Whoo hoo!

But I was having so much fun watching Titanic, Deep Impact, and reading Lucifer’s Hammer and No Blade of Grass and On the Beach and especially enjoying watching Red Dawn a couple times.

Spoil sport.

Grumble, grumble.

we’re not doomed but a lot of babies will be as a result of Obama’s unlimited abortion policy.

I'm kind of getting tired of hearing this. Unless you are a fortune teller you can't know this. I'm not trying to pick on you or your opinion, I'm just getting tired of people saying things with no proof.

Just because he changes the policy/law does not mean that women are going to flock to abortion clinics! I'm not defending OB or his Administration, I'm saying that you have to trust the woman not to take advantage of the policy/law. And, let's not forget that no matter what policy/law they pass, if we educate (whomever) the policy/law can't control or hurt us.

And, let's not forget one historical fact - Babies don't die from a policy/law, they die by a choice. They've been dying regardless of the policy/law.

FDR put every obstacle to Republican elections in place from 1932-1944

So that was obviously after he went on TV in 1929 to console America over the market crash. ;-)

Thanks for the insights, LS.

Sophistry. I noticed you've already been born.

Amen, time to stop complaining, and time to put on your “big boy pants”, the Democrats are beginning their undoing as we watch, sit back and watch the train wreck, it will result in the next Reagan.

Excellent. Thank you. I’m just as concerned as anyone else, but some of the hand-wringing on this site is embarrassing. If it’s just policy differences, we can easily weather that—we did with Clinton for 8 years. If it comes to a shooting war, make sure you’re armed. Constantly ranting “Woe is us!” ain’t gonna solve a damned thing.

I'm not buying into the "We're doomed" mantra. However I am working my hardest at trying "not to be seen" fiscally and financially for the next few years. I'm practicing my "power shrudges", Altas style...

Thanks, Larry.

I fell asleep last night thinking that we need someone to TALK SUCCESS for the Pubbies, and here you are. What the democrats haven’t yet done to hurt this country, the DU invaders on this site are busy trying to demoralize us. Your thought is well taken—we’re our own worst enemies if we don’t believe we CAN FIGHT!

Many are in total denial even here. The country did not end under Jimmy Carter, or Clinton and there will be a United States even under hussein.

But, the thing that few acknowledge, is that even under Eisenhower, Nixon, Reagan, Bush, Bush - even when we had control of Congress - the United States has never rolled back liberalism/socialism. The best we have ever done is slow the amount of change to socialism away from Liberty ad capitalism.

My point is not that the country will end in four years. My point is that even with a Palin win in 2012 and even if we take back control of Congress in 2010 or 2012, the best we can hope for, based on history and human nature, is to slow the move to full blown socialism. We have no evidence of ever repealing large portions of socialist law, and getting the judiciary to honor the constitution.

To me, the only way we can get our Liberty back is to start over. We can never get 100% of the US to do this, I wish we could get about half of the US to secede and start over, to return to the constitution, Liberty and capitalism. Staying in the US will never produce a move back to Liberty - it has never been done before and I cannot see a way for it to happen in the future. Half or more of the country will not allow it, and all of the media will not allow it. Therefore, people who love Liberty need to face reality - we need to leave, or, we need to quite complaining and talking about freedom, because slowing the move to socialism does not get the job done and that is all we have ever done in the last 100 years and all we will ever be able to do going forward.

I’m not making light of loosening abortion laws.

Ok, I’m not either. All I’m saying is that even with all the laws on the books to-date, women still have abortions. Women need to be educated about alternatives to abortion so that they no longer choose abortion.

hmmmmm..interesting that over half of your citations also screamed ‘We are doomed’...so maybe the clarion call of doom really does work. LOL

We are doomed if we do not contain the democrat socialist machine. Most of us are ready and willing to stand up and fight but nobody wants to fight for republicans that refuse to fight for us.

Hey, the Great Depression is coming and will take hold *big time* in 2009. But, that’s not bad news, because we made it through the last Great Depression, so we’ll make it through this one... LOL..

***The only way a Democrat even won the White House for 100 years was to either a) pretend to be a Republican (Cleveland-—DINO); or to get the Republicans to fracture into two parties (Wilson in 1912).***

Another excellent point. The trolls from DU are working hard right now to toss out the Republican party and split it in two.

Lenin got money from Germany for less than a year. After that, he was on his own.

There was just no cohesive force to oppose the Bolshies. They also demonstrated amazing spirit and dedication.
