The good news is I am also amazed at the growing awareness of some of these lifelong democrats. Some of these people are starting to get it. This awareness seems to be taking place at a painfully slow pace.
I fear that some will awaken far to late for their own good, or the good of their children/grandchildren.
Myself, I would prefer that if someone has to fight and die to regain our freedom, let it be me, not my son.
