Many care, they just don’t see how anything can be done about it. Would you have them storm the capitol and evict the occupants? Voting doesn’t seem to change much of anything.

And the sheep of the US electorate care not as long as the feedlot is well stocked. What happens when the opiate of nearly endless subsidies, EBT cards, and wealth redistribution schemes of boundless variety bring the house down on their simple little minds?

I hate to even admit this, but the Marxists know it, and that’s why they own all the networks.
unless brian Williams leads his broadcast with a slow and solemn pronouncement, the people will not regard it as important.

The IRS scandal is not a standalone issue but comes at a time when the Democratic party is seeking to radically expand the power of the federal government to regulate political speech; we can safely assume that the same people who were using the IRS’s political-speech regulations for political ends will have precisely the same motives and precisely the same opportunity to use other political-speech regulations for precisely the same political ends: to benefit their allies and persecute their enemies.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Its a planned evolution towards the establishment of a fascist state. This is where Obama is going with all of his initiatives.

This has been predicted for years:

Its actions in this matter are not only inappropriate — they are illegal. Using government resources for political ends is a serious crime, as is conspiring to mislead investigators about those crimes...

People in DC are being fed lies... the people behind the lies are the one's we need to expose.

“It may be that the American public simply does not care about the issue; it is always difficult, if not impossible, to predict what issues will seize the electorate’s attention, or to understand why after the fact. It may be that the public does not understand the issue, ...”

The democratic public DOES NOT care if elections are fraudulent because they are confident that fraud will continue in their favor. Why would they worry and who will stop it from happening?

"Elected officials and public servants of both parties take an oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States and to faithfully discharge the duties of their office. "

My disillusion with the U.S. Federal Government became complete when I realized that President George W. Bush had no intention of enforcing U.S. immigration laws.

For one thing—voter fraud is widespread.

I was accused of drinking the kool-aid yesterday for pointing that out. It shouldn’t take an advanced degree from the school of the bleeding obvious to see what is happening.

Rome during the empire period collapsed. Byzantium lasted about 1,000 years longer.

Maybe one should investigate why.

Rome-high taxes, public welfare, corruption, unsustainable spending and debt.

Byzantium, wars upon wars, defeated by islam in the end.

So is the US Rome or Byzantium?

I think enough of the sheep might wake up, so long as they are given a real alternative to the status quo, but even many of those who claim to be Conservative are working hard to prevent that.

When your supposed allies are in the enemy camp, there are few alternatives left.
