Possibly, and perhaps with a bit more granularity, the blue dogs were the ones who initially promised support for stronger enforcement, but Iran-contra forced the blue dogs cover to ultimately side with the progressives.
Welcome to the party. Better late than never. Where have you been?
Some of us have known for a long time now that America is all done but the crying. It has been baked into the cake for a long time now.
PC, feminism, rampant immigration from 3rd world cesspools, the complete takeover of the K-12 schools and universities and government unions and Hollywood. I could go on an on. Consevative rural America is being drained while big liberal cities are growing by leaps and bounds.
Poorly educated hispanic immigrants used to be confined to the southern border states. Now they are everywhere. Half of all California K-8 students are Hispanic. In 30 years, half of all Califorvians will be hisbanic and they will dominate state politics, and they vote Democrat.
Look at all the formerly conservative states that have turned liberal, like Colorado, Washington, and Virginia. Even Montana and Wyoming are starting to fill up with California liberals.
Most Democrats believe America should be a socialist nation.
Half of all Americans are dependent on the federal government for at least some of their income.
Baby, the writing was on the wall 2 dwcades ago when the Rapist in Chief Billy boy and his sinister wife Hitlery were running roughshod over the nation, and half of Americans THEN didn’t care about their destructive path of heinous crimes.
We are screwed. Done. Toast. Put a fork in us. The fat lady is going through her scales.
My only goal is to find a conservative city in a conservative state where I can watch the slow decline and fall from afar as it eventually surrounds me, if I live that long. I am hoping to die before my retirement city bears the full extent.
Trump has been an absolute Godsend to slow down the coming socialist utopia. He has fought a rear guard action that gives me hope I wont see the full socialist implementation if it is delayed now until after I am dead. That is my only goal, brcause I did nothing to contribute to this problem, and Ican do nothing to fix it.
The UN, the New World Order, the global government are all in destroying America ans I guarantee it is going to happen. I is just a matter of when. It has been baked into the cake for a long time.
Glad you can finally see it. Or maybe I am sorry you can. Ignorance truly is bliss.
In 2014 about 77 men grabbed their rifles and went to another bridge near Bundy Ranch with nothing more than hope in God to confront the largest army on earth. We won that day, but since then spineless corrupt quislings in high places have squandered the righteous momentum.
Every day that passes without arrests is one day closer to civil war. Freedom ROTS without justice!
I pray for peace, but know that freedom>peace.
Well said. I had to learn that Love of Jesus had to come long before love of country.
Still, it is sad and frustrating to see the amazing goodness and greatness that America was, and its gift to the world, being destroyed from within by the New World Order. So sad.
But God the Father, Christ, and the Holy Spirit are all that truly matter. Then family. The tragedy of my declining nation is a distand third.
George Bernard Shaw was jealous of G.K. Chesterton's optimism. Shaw didn't admit it was anything else, but he knew the optimist wins the day.
Through ALL the SHTF scenarios we have faced in the past, call it, 20 years--I have never been as pessimistic as I am now.
Well said.
Let me be clear: I am NOT personally conceding the fight to retain humanity. I am undergoing a couple of projects, in fact, to attempt to stem the tide as much as possible, though I feel I’m figuratively part of the crew of the Alamo before the final battle.
The first project is the Every Real Vote Counts effort, which is a necessary redundancy play on words to the oxymoronic “Every Vote Counts” farce that projects manufactured votes as votes that need to be “counted.” I will be expounding on this in the near future once the site is up.
The other project is the Class Sponsor project, which will promote local and parental effort into returning the school curricula back to rational, science- and historical-based factual narratives, as opposed to the globalist, anti-Western Civilization mantra that most students have been indoctrinated with for over a generation now.
But if my seeming diatribe has pissed you off, then GOOD. Call me a “soy boy” (or “soi boi” if you want to be gender-neutrally “with it”), but it still does not deflect the overwhelming mindset, and now constitutionally-supported attack on the constitution, and the ensuing results.
Travis McGee is probably point man from Free Republic with his take, in my opinion. Straight Line Logic, Cold Fury, and others along the same lines also have their agreement with this analysis. So understand it’s not a whine, but a warning of things to come.
If you were still in Washington, you wouldn’t be able to legally walk within 250 feet of those streams!
Only the darkest times if good people do nothing
I’m dredging gravel out of one of them for my 1/4 mile long driveway. ;)
I wouldn’t wipe my ass with this defeatist propaganda. Get a different hobby.
I did the same as you, except in AL, and 10 years too late. I may have missed the window to avoid the coming unpleasantness. God be with us all.
Regardless of what each of us deems to be the situation we’re in (on a micro or macro level), if we’re dissatisfied we need to turn inward and ask: “What am I willing to do about it? What am I willing to do to improve my situation and/or the larger situation at hand?”
Then act on it.
For some, the action is to flee. For others, the action is to fight. Or proselytize to bring others over to the right side, or vote or run for office to enact positive change from within the system.
It looks like you’ve established the parameters of the situation from your perspective, so the next step is to determine what your course of action will be. If you truly believe America is irretrievably doomed, you may want to consider relocating (to where is the big question). If you believe we still have a chance, you should consider what your ‘fight’ options are to (legally) vanquish your foes and defeat the destructive ideology that they believe and promote.
And always remember, President Trump is a winner and he never has a defeatist mentality. We would all do well to emulate his “winningness”.
As I posted earlier, I am actively working on two projects that I was hoping to have a bit more time on, but have now put the afterburners on with regard to voting and school curricula. Hobbies? Since I’m not being paid yet, perhaps, but I’d much rather turn them into movements.
That said, the “defeatist” attitude is more a lament on historical trends, and propaganda is, by definition, lies pushed as truth. Please provide context into “lies” I may have projected.
We have a saying in our Bible Study/Sunday School Class:
“I’ve read the last chapter. We win.”
Good. Fight. Your kids and your community defend on it.
That said, the following sequence must happen.
1. The truth of the current political and societal situation must be laid bare. I have done so with as much detail as I could in a Free Rep. post.
2. The trends of such truths must be coldly assessed with historical trends as a guideline.
3. Finally, solutions MUST be proffered that avert the negative consequences of the political and societal situation. If solutions are readily available, or easily countered based upon not just current law and political will, but TRENDING political winds, then they are NOT solutions, and the progression of the trend lines continue.
Trump is positive, I agree, and his movement was the biggest single reason why this country has postponed its fundamental transformation from Western Civilization’s greatest beacon of hope to that of 3rd World dystopia from 2016...until now. But we are in a rapidly deteriorating numbers game, and less and less of us exist to maintain this hold. Hence my Alamo reference.
That said, a positive attitude I do NOT have, from an emotional standpoint, though in a full analysis, I do have to provide emotional content, either to accentuate the truth, or to motivate others to ACT, and not just HOPE.
I like the analogy.
