My thoughts exactly.
Start thinking in terms of 1775.
That's right and Obama is King George.
“south africa is the future”
Meh, think that is overstating it. We are on the road to being another failed Western European social democracy. We’ve been heading in that direction for years. Reagan interrupted things for a bit, but even he couldn’t cut spending or any major programs. Socialism is like a deadly, addictive drug, and once it takes hold in the people it is very hard to kick. Even with Republican victories in November, it will only be a temporary setback to the left. The US has to suffer a major economic calamity in order to persuade a true majority, in their heart of hearts, to give up their freebies. Also, taking the free stuff away may result in a fair bit of violence, so things could get nasty.
Anyone that surrenders deserves their future
Constitutional Amendment
Term limits for congress critters and the right of recall,and then strip the federal government of its powers except for what is outlined in the bill of rights
Which nations do you put in this category?
Can it be? It has to be...at all cost. It isnt a question.
I like that quote - which is Star Wars Episode I (The Phantom Menace). It’s been my Facebook quote for the last year or so.
Civil Disobedience.
One patriot
One patriot
Uh-huh! And where would that be? New Zealand?
No.
Very bleak.

You know there were warning signs...
I kept telling people when Bill Clinton slithered in to office, and clung to it, despite all the scandals, and Impeachment itself-- He's just a symptom. Like a fever is of a disease- there's something wrong with America.
Like Popular Culture- look at the magazines-- I call it thugs & jugs, or which Pop Tart is popping out whose baby this week?
Or Katrina- ever seen so many people milling around with their hands out, when they should have been helping themselves?
We did it to ourselves, and The New, Improved Black Jesus is merely a symptom.
All civilizations have a shelf life- once enough citizens figure out that by electing the right representatives, they can use the power of the government to pick the pockets of others,
...it's all over, except for the details.
Well, we're in the details, now.
Meanwhile, I have to figure out what Miss Emily and I do with what's left of our lives, and bush hog her Mom's old place in the country, because City Life isn't going to be worth living from here on out.
I'll catch you all later...
...maybe...
