Thanks for the great comments, the truth of which are undeniable. And when you look at where we reside on that repeating cycle, it’s quite chilling.

I was taking a guy to task last night for trashing Santorum for addressing abortion, homosexual marriage, and contraceptives.

I wouldn’t address contraceptives like Santorum did, but I do believe our culture is destroying itself, and promiscuity given cover by the availability of contraceptives is part of the problem.

Abortion? Homosexual marriage? He’s wrong to address them?

It makes you ask yourself, who do we as Conservatives actually believe here? If this guy is wrong to address these things, then I better start morphing me belief system.

Not gonna happen.

I appreciate your comments. You take care.

"I do believe our culture is destroying itself, and promiscuity given cover by the availability of contraceptives is part of the problem."

I understand your point, and it is part of the problem. However, nowadays, I don't think contraceptives is what's really lowering our standards. I'm somewhat of a libertarian when it comes to that, Harvard Law "students" notwithstanding...har. I believe that our pop culture that we are bombarded with daily by the MSM, Hollywood, acadamia, and advertising to be the real culprits in lowering the bar.

Personally, I don't think we will ever get back to the moral equivalence of the Founding Fathers. You know how hard I've tried (VetsCoR), but I've given up of late. I'm awaiting 4 more years of bambi and hope he pisses Joe-six-pack and Soccor-moms off enough to open their eyes and join us in a new, hopefully peaceful, revolution. Unless that happens, our great experiment in self-determination is going to end.

On an up note. Some European countries are starting to refute their socialist political systems. Maybe, when Greece, Italy, Spain, et al learn their lesson, they can provide some insight to the average American how socialism will just not work. But then, we have some 49% of Americans who don't pay fed income taxes and want more stuff so who knows how long the above would take?

If the average Joe/Josephine doesn't wake up soon, I will be looking to move to Arizona (cutting edge 2nd and 10th amendment state), or maybe even out-country to Costa Rico and hopefully escape the failure of the western political system.

Yes, there are places that even the most powerful will not interlope...Costa Rico, Cayman Islands and others. There are many that the regional/world fights would not affect, due to elites needing safe havens for their money.

Sorry for the rant, but I'm done if bambi gets another term. I'll fight against that SOB, but I believe he will get 4 more...the gimmes want him and they grow by the day.
