I thought I was the only one with thoughts this dour. I literally fear for the continued existance of this country. Of course, I am branded a whacko if I express it.

No country lasts forever. That's an inarguable fact. It's true. Once upon a time, there was a place called England. One day, it just vanished. It was near the spot where the ancient nations of France and Spain and Portugal and Holland once stood. All gone. I woke up this morning, smoking hole where Canada used to be.
It's spooky, man.

What a great stupidity from Bob Newman. There is significant difference for America and the previous fallen governments, which are the barrier of the seas. If any country would attempt to invade America, they will face billions of militias that are armed ready to resist any invasion. The only two countries on the border of America does not have such a power to defeat US. Terrorism? You can't defeat a country by external non-state based terrorism. His comparisons are nothing but comparing oranges with apples, and nothing but a communist day dream.

I would agree if the title were "End Of Days, When CBS Falls"

[No country lasts forever. Thats an inarguable fact.]
I'll argue against that statement.
It's non falsifiable (forever hasn't arrived yet) so it cannot be a proved fact.
Just thought I'd throw my two cents in.

... the enemy within ... the most insidious and deadly ...
too many different sources or groups making a clamor and demands against the good of the nation. We are in a very dangerous time and the fragmentization is increasing. God help us.

Wow, I have been gone for only 6 months. Did the population grow THAT much? Hmm, I thought the total was only 300 mil, and much of that is brain dead.
Yes, I can see the US going to pieces.
I am sure that Rome had the same confidence that you have.

Pray and work.
Work and pray.
Take back control of your kids, take back control of your own life, take back control of your schools or build new ones. Take back control of your party or build a new one. Talk, write, work, pray.
And, just remember, the kids over in Iraq and Afghanistan are the finest soldiers we have ever fielded, and they are all coming home to take their place in this society. That will mean something, although we don't yet see it, as they each transform their piece of the world, just by being in it.

The end won't be a great cataclysm but rather a small sigh as the door is closed on my cell. Liberty will die to the applause of the masses, for to many good men and women are doing nothing to defend it.
There will never be an external enemy strong enough to over power us , but we will and are willingly giving away our freedom everyday.

America's current state of decline is readily explained, but not irreversible. Our founders established a system which affirmed and relied upon Natural Law to minimize the need for the codified laws of government.
We have abandoned, if not virtually outlawed the notion that there is such a thing as Natural Law. Society has been led to marginalize those that cling to such antiquated notions as moral absolutes. Our founders envisioned a society where the people were self governing and capable of correctly disposing of coarse, offensive, and immoral behavior through its intolerance of such. Now, the intolerance of immorality is the offending behavior that demands exile. During our descent we have been told that we must reject the notion of a higher authority. Now we are told that disbelief is no longer adequate, but fashion demands we act in open defiance of the same higher authority we were told does not exist, and nobody sees the absurdity of this.
As soon as we reject the notion of moral absolutes, we reject the existence of the rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, and undermine the very pilings on which this nations was built.
We have met the enemy and he is us. God save us from ourselves.

Have been reading Allen Drury's Advice & Consent series for the past two weeks. What was inconceivable when he wrote (and we were reading) in the '60s is almost commonplace now. I swear today's democrat talking points come right from the mouths of Frankly Unctious, Fred Van Ackerman, Ted Jason.
