Has America Been Defeated Without a Shot Being Fired?
My Nightmare | Sept. 26, 2008 | RetSignman

Posted on 09/28/2008 9:26:02 AM PDT by RetSignman

The Founding Fathers said we have given you a Republic if you can hold on to it. In the midst of the financial ruin, the corruption of our leaders, the endemic voter fraud and the worldwide destruction of the faith in America, we are done. The open abuse of the press has violated the very foundation of Freedom of the Press and is nothing more than a propaganda machine geared towards abject socialism for this country.

President Reagan's policy destroyed the Soviet Union by crippling their economy and bringing them to their knees, is it unrealistic, to see this is exactly what we are now seeing in America? The only factor missing is who is behind our destruction. Is it the reemergence of the Soviet Union? Is it Communist China? Is it the Nation of Islam, Iran? Or a combination of many exterior forces including the useful idiots of members of our own Congress? The face behind our destruction and defeat is a shadowy figure that will never be seen until our country is on its knees. The useful idiots will be brushed aside and the face will be revealed for all to see.

I have always been a person who has looked at the glass as being half full, I have taken heart in our small victory's of revealing political malfeasance in office only to see them remain in power. I have seen the people we have elected and believed in, go to Washington and become nothing more than washed out shell of why we elected them.. I have been naive in believing that our country would always be on the side of right and our that our Constitution would never be abridged. I, naively, believed that if we were on the edge of destruction, true patriots would emerge and fight back and save our nation. I have seen none, they are not there, all we have are politicians with their main goal is self, clutching to their power as a child would of his security blanket.

The final nail has been driven into the heart of our Republic when the our Congress, the protectors of our Constitution, the only fire wall we have to protect this Republic, bowed down on it's knees to the alter of socialism. They have ripped apart the very essence of the Constitution and rendered it just ancient paper with words of Patriots with hopes and dreams for our Republic. We have betrayed their trust, we have stood by silently and watched the incremental destruction of our country and put our future in the hands of the spineless, the power hungry, the undeserving and the corrupt.

Now that we are at our most vulnerable with our economy in shambles, the faith in our government shattered, the shadowy figures that harbor hatred towards our way of life can strangle the final breath out of this Republic.

Flame away but show me any light at the end of the tunnel because right now I need it.

“A Republic if you can keep it.” Ben Franklin

Our Founding Fathers would weep.

"Revolt With A Vote"?

Looks like Communist Party USA thinks Obama is someone who can deliver a 'bloodless' revolution.

From Rules for Radicals, Alinsky outlines his strategy in organizing, writing:

"There's another reason for working inside the system. Dostoevsky said that taking a new step is what people fear most. Any revolutionary change must be preceded by a passive, affirmative, non-challenging attitude toward change among the mass of our people. They must feel so frustrated, so defeated, so lost, so futureless in the prevailing system that they are willing to let go of the past and change the future. This acceptance is the reformation essential to any revolution."[2]

I firmly believe we have been infiltrated economically and politically in this Country. It has been a slow and methodical process. Look at the scandals that have hit us in DC and outside of DC in politics. When we see politician voting for the very issues they fought to change it makes me wonder if they have been bought or blackmailed.

I also believe that the media has and will carry the water to a socialist form of Government. That has been the first step in my opinion of changing this Country. The second was Universities...
I hope we don’t get there, I hope we have enough to stop it.

What we are seeing are the seeds of a new bloody civil war that could end up taking place thanks to the socialists.

Satan’s plan at the end of the Bible is here. Remember what Jesus said, “Let your heart not be troubled.” Everyone get down on your knees and pray, “Thy will be done.”

In addition there is amnesty for illegal aliens - both Obama and McCain support it. That will also do it. Our country is being invaded and the politicians not only want amnesty for the invaders but special perks. I have read McCain's proposals for illegals - and it's insanity, a sell-out of our country.

This bailout might turn out into a horror story. Then there is the power accorded to judges to break the laws and make the laws as we slide towards a dictatorship of judges - a krytocracy.

"The Roman Republic fell, not because of the ambition of Caesar or Augustus, but because it had already long ceased to be in any real sense a republic at all. When the sturdy Roman plebeian, who lived by his own labor, who voted without reward according to his own convictions, and who with his fellows formed in war the terrible Roman legion, had been changed into an idle creature who craved nothing in life save the gratification of a thirst for vapid excitement, who was fed by the state, and who directly or indirectly sold his vote to the highest bidder, then the end of the Republic was at hand, and nothing could save it. The laws were the same as they had been, but the people behind the laws had changed, and so the laws counted for nothing.”- Teddy Roosevelt on the Fall of the Republic

“Since the general civilization of mankind, I believe there are more instances of the abridgement of the freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments of those in power than by violent and sudden usurpations.”- James Madison - 1788

"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to be feared." -- Marcus Tullius Cicero

We're screwed, either way- and we have only ourselves to blame.

In the midst of the financial ruin, the corruption of our leaders, the endemic voter fraud and the worldwide destruction of the faith in America, we are done.- It opens the door for a “Strong-man”..a Dictator to take over when people call for order...I believe at least one candidate is a true ‘tyrant’..?

Of we can take courage in the knowledge that God is in Controll (and for those that follow Him, nothing can harm us (at least take our souls).. It’s time for America to turn back to her Savior..!

I sometimes wish we could split the country, one half for people who believe in the Constitution and the other made up of squishy country club RINOs and their lib cousins. I can dream, right?
