It is time for the next Revolutionary War to begin. It is time to water the tree of liberty with the blood of tyrants.

I read one book by Peikoff that I liked, but he seems to have devolved into infantilism.

Like they did with the word “torture”, the Marxist DemocRATS have changed the meaning of “Land of the free.” Now it means, “free” housing, “free” healthcare, “free” food and “free” money.

I just don't see it this way. I see a citizenry that is as aware of what its government is doing and is speaking out on it as much as it ever has.

“I see a citizenry that is as aware of what its government is doing and is speaking out on it as much as it ever has.”

What planet are you posting this from?

Americans aren’t doing squat to fight this.

We’ve had a family outing at the park (Tea Parties).

Uh, let’s see...well, that’s all I can think of.

The rest has been a sick kind of acquiescence and passivity.

Americans seem to be taking their hard-left medicine quite well, of late.

And a big thanks to all the republicans who voted for 0bama because he was “cool” and black. Thanks for the effort and the thoughtful consideration of our POTUS commie.

I don't see the word "fight" in my post.

Russians have a bad habit of malevolence.

Old comparison example, contrasting Russian with other outlooks:

American: "My neighbor just bought a fine new horse. It's an impressive animal. I want one just like it."

Russian: "My neighbor just bought a fine new horse. It's an impressive animal. I hope my neighbor's horse dies."

This comparison was offered by a Russian.

“America is no longer The Land of the Free, but The Land of the Ignorant and the Enslaved”

I would not go around repeating that too loudly!

That sounds poetic, but what does it mean in practical terms?

Actually, you’re right for a lot of reasons... America has become and will continue to be a land of the poor voting in their largess. That means that the Democrats will continue to rule and push the rest of America into the doldrums. Assuming that the 20 million illegal immigrants get voting privileges, we are lost.

In the long run, that will mean either Fascism or Socialism - either on will be the eventual death of America as the founders envisioned... Yes, I do feel sorry for my son...me, I won’t live long enough to see it - thank goodness...

” I would not go around repeating that too loudly!” AND THAT’S THE ONGOING PROBLEM, EVEN ON THE GOP SIDE! TOO MANY, PRESENTLY IN THE GOP, HAVE NO POLITICAL SPINES, AND THEY ARE JUST “POLITICAL WUSSIES” WHEN DEALING WITH “EVERYTHING LEFTIST”!

. . . . and is speaking out on it as much as it ever has.

Agreed. Which, unfortunately, is not at all.
