I think right now everyone is reacting to Herman's dropping out of the race. Everyone needs to take a deep breath and gather their thoughts; too many are venting or getting anxious and/or depressed. If necessary shut down the computer and go take a walk or do something w/your family ...or whatever you do to relax.

I grew up in a military family; father was a career officer in the Marine Corps. I spent 37 years working as a civilian for the Army and worked w/green suiters every day. The military are professionals; they respect the law and will defend the Constitution as they are sworn to do.

I know you are anxious and concerned; however, now is not the time for panic. Herman dropping out is disappointing; but, it is not the end of the world. Have more faith in yourself and the American people.

Right now I don’t recognize the American people. And I’ve seen a system that shoves crap sandwiches down the throats of the American people even if the people DO burn up the DC phone lines in protest, DO give the biggest landslide to oppose the current regime (but then the people they voted in cave as if they didn’t have a mandate), etc.

And I’ve watched the military leadership screw the underlings to do whatever lawless thing the corrupt leaders wanted to get done.

I see Issa investigating Holder and finding him totally lawless and corrupt - but then Issa saying that it’s up to OBAMA to decide whether a criminal can stay in office!

Every “hero” has failed us. Every one. This system eats heroes for breakfast so it can have strength to spend the rest of the day scattering the rest of us.

Your advice to get away from this is well-taken and I’m going to do that. I came back on to see if anybody had any advice about a firearm to protect the family with, but had meant it to be just a quick check and then I’ll put up our Christmas tree or something that reminds me of things I really can count on. Right now it feels like everything I hold dear is dying. I loved America. I don’t think she can survive this cancer that’s eating her alive, body and soul.

Thanks for your post, it is sane, measured, logical and very appropriate.

I admit to being disappointed with this turn of events, but until Herman Cain announces that his campaign is OVER and not just ‘suspended’, I will continue to support and stand with him. That isn’t being a zealot, that is doing the right and honorable thing. Herman Cain has been falsely accused. No evidence has ever been produced which actually proved a damn thing. Just a pack of lying whores enabled and encouraged by the lamestream media, ‘Rats, RINOs and other assorted dirtbags.

What has distressed me more than Herman Cain suspending his campaign, was to witness the blatantly racist comments which have been posted in this forum, comments that can only be interpreted as reflecting some sadly bigoted souls behind the applicable keyboards that have generated such crap.

Now you Ozy, coming from a Marine family will most likely know of the man I’m going to mention next, a man that I would like to see drafted at the convention as our nominee just as Eisenhower was drafted in ‘52, former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Peter Pace, USMC. I know of no finer man, no more honorable man, than General Pace.

Unfortunately the good General has (up to this point) expressed little if any interest in running for elective office. I suspect he is simply too damn honest for it. But I would love to see a grass roots campaign begun in an effort to try and bring him into the race, be it write in, or whatever. But that’s just me. General Pace would very likely be attacked and savaged by the ‘UniParty’ of ‘Rats and RINOs and establishment statists, just as they went after Sarah Palin and Herman Cain.

Irregardless, thanks for your words, FRiend.

Good and accurate thoughts. Only a few nagging minor things could throw the cliff closer as the cliff does draw ever closer due to those who want America over the cliff. Would our politicians choose to take America over the cliff? If one is logical one knows they would, if they (our politicians) could hold onto their power. What would be their goal? Some believe highest bidder and am tending to agree, or are those trade treaties working out as was not intended? The dye does appear to be cast, and total global collapse could happen. So what happens in a total global collapse? Reboot or something different? Not knowing here (in this corner) and not knowing how the world would react leaves extremes open to do the extreme, perhaps. Still praying this cup is removed from America's lips for those currently leading may have followed both forks in the road, or the third fork to the extreme.
