Bob Barr: Stepping Closer To That “Thousand Years of Darkness” Reagan Warned Us About in 1964
The National Sentinel ^ | 10/10/18 | Bob Barr

Danger Zone: On October 27, 1964, Ronald Reagan, still two years away from serving in public office himself, delivered one of the greatest speeches in modern American history. Delivered to a nationwide radio audience in support of then-GOP presidential candidate Barry Goldwater, the former movie star declared America at a crossroads. Failure to grasp and aggressively defend against the dangers then faced by our country would, Reagan warned, push us into “a thousand years of darkness.”

While the specific dangers about which Reagan then spoke were external, his call to action against existential threats applies with at least equal validity to internal forces tearing at the foundations of our freedom.

Looking back at the last month of insanity surrounding the confirmation process of now-Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, it seems we are standing at Reagan’s shoulder, staring directly into that black abyss.

More from the Article:

The disturbing level of irrational hatred and willingness to use violence demonstrated by those protesting Kavanaugh was outshone only by the level of contempt Democratic Senators Dianne Feinstein, Mazie Hirono, Cory (aka “Spartacus”) Booker, and Chuck Schumer displayed for their constitutional “advice and consent” duty. And, if not for Sen. Lindsey Graham slapping many of his Republican colleagues (notably Sen. Jeff Flake) back to their senses, we might have just taken that last step into darkness.

Agreed. After the election and the left is further decimated and lose more seats, everybody better be locked and loaded. It’s going to get ugly and the DOJ doesn’t seem to care. They need to start arresting and throwing in jail for a long long time, these idiots.

Someone needs to convince the crazy leftists to wear a recognizable uniform so we will know who to shoot at.

The Speech is commonly known as “A Time for Choosing”, and it’s definitive.

There is going to be blood split if the Democrat are not hammered into submission by voters at the ballot box in Nov.

Democrats will continue these crypto fascist tactics of poltical violence and intimidation until US voters punish them for it. So far they think this scumbag behavior is working for them.

No regime lasts 1000 years anymore. Socialism begins with a great bloody spasm lasting some years, then exists as a horrible police state for a few decades, followed by a systemic ethical rot, followed by a turn to some form of capitalism and limited religious revival.

We will lose the Constitution forever if we do not defend it all.

We cannot survive another usurpation.

It is still not clear if we successfully survive the Kenyanesian Usurpation.

At some point Patriots who are physically able will need to step up and put it all on the line to defend this country against these invading communist dems. It’s not their citizenship that makes them the invading force; it’s their Marxist/communist ideology.
