The problem, Peggy, is that for 8 decades the Democrats have been rushing to the Left. They control the MSM, education, pop culture and a large part of the church. The Republicans, desperate to compete, got caught in their wake and followed behind them.
Now we find ourselves as a nation with a Soviet-style authoritarian government coming to power. Those who love what America has been and remained through her various inner and external conflicts, no longer have a party they can turn to. It truly has become “us” (liberty-loving patriots) against “them” (statists/totalitarians/communists/socialists).
We also have alternative communication (the Internet) where many experts who would never have had a voice 20 years ago now analyze and state their opinions. Those who care about what is happening are intelligent enough to weed out the truly objective, knowledgeable bloggers from those just seeking recognition. Those experts are spreading the truth about where we are economically.
We also have talk radio and Glenn Beck's program spreading that truth.
And it really isn't that hard to understand.
Our economic system (controlled by a socialist, central bank we call the Federal Reserve), has done exactly what they always planned to do, which is the exact opposite of their stated mission. They planned on stripping of America and Americans of their wealth, stealing that wealth for themselves, while at the same time weakening America as a nation by destroying the middle class.
Their goal has been the same as the totalitarians that now run the government: a two-tier social structure with the rulers and the serfs.
And THAT, Peggy, is the despair that Americans feel. We feel that we are about to lose and that not only America but all the world is about to be cast into a new Dark Ages where the overlords oppress the serfs for their own benefit and crush their spirits so that they no longer desire liberty.
But Peggy. There is something you should know. You are only seeing the despair. And the tone of your article is almost pathetic because it displays how you are only viewing the situation out of one eye.
True Americans will not “go gently into that good night.”
This could get very, very ugly before the Dark Ages.
That should alarm you far more than despair, which is actually a last glimmer of hope before people believe they have absolutely nothing left to lose.
I pray it doesn't come to that. Because that would be all the totalitarians needed to say, “it's time to stop handling them with kid gloves,” and to crush us violently.
I pray it doesn't come to this, but history yells at us from the dark abyss of the past that this is often the course of human action.
I cannot for the life of me understand how after all the Obaminations, 54% still approve of 0’s performance in office according to the latest FoxNews Dynamic Poll. Perhaps, we just may have crossed the Rubicon.
We have a totally corrupt executive branch, judiciary and largely corrupt legislative branch.
We have been sold out to the Saudis, China and Indonesia.
Thank corrupt judges like David O. Carter, Judge Land in GA and others.
Beck and the other radio and TV talk show beauties can only be trusted up to a certain point.
Remember, please, that Fox News and nearly every other radio talk show host has completely ignored Obama’s eligibility as a natural born citizen. Beck and the rest nearly completely ignore the bullying done by the homosexual lobby, and only superficially cover government stories when they are so outrageous they can't be ignored. ( Just to give a **few** examples of what they ignore.)
Yeah! All of these guys are useful, but we must remember that Beck ( and the rest) are **entertainers**! When the tyranny looms, **all** of these guys will willingly use their talents to support and uphold the oppressors. They will spit shine the jack boots crushing our necks. ( Peggy will too!)
