Old Pat Buchanan, long-time Republican, Conservative war-horse, and occasional guest speaker on MSNBC's Joe (the progressive RINO) Scarborough's show, where old Pat is basically treated like some prop for the amusement of the Leftists there, has just written a book which basically says the America that we've grown up in is dying. At my age, when i look around at what's happened to my country, i don't need a book to tell me it's dying.
As a life-long conservative, i can't help but feel both sadness and great anger at what this country has become. I no longer have any faith in many things i was taught to respect, such as our political system, one that is based entirely on lies and corruption, our judicial system, where gods in black robes play with hundreds-of-millions of lives, and our megalomaniacal elected officials who, for the most part, couldn't care less about the people. These are the people we choose to represent us, but in fact, they rarely represent anything other than their own pockets, friends, and political ideology.
It seems to me that one of the most important concepts about our country to be killed-off was the beautiful first words in the Constitution, We The People. In reality, it should read, We The Sheep, We The Worker-Ants, We The Bill Payers, We The Fools. And, IMO, it's not the elected lying crooks who are to blame. It's We The Above...
Sorry. I'll now put my soapbox back in the garage...

Sadly, it seems so.
(my days are numbered)
Someday, i believe history will look back at this time in America and ask, how could a people who had so much allow it all to be taken away without the slightest bit of resistance.
I can't find fault with ANY of what he says, that's for damned sure. It could be worse. We could live in some other English speaking country where gun ownership is very tightly controlled, where people are dared to defend themselves. And I know we're half way there.
But there are places, like where I am, where they are re-establishing and re-codifying the Castle Doctrine.
Origin of Left And Right:
I have often wondered why it is that Conservatives are called
the "right" and Liberals are called the "left."
Verse in the Bible:
"The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left."
Ecclesiastes 10:2 (NIV)
You are right on target here, Schteveo. Perhaps America was too successful, leading to the complacency that is bringing us down. We have always assumed freedom and prosperity, and are too self absorbed to notice that those things are rapidly vanishing.
A society gets the government it deserves.
Just a coincidence I suppose.....
The Solar thing just got a little more interesting.......REALLY!
The Tonopah Solar company in Harry Reid's Nevada is getting a $737 million loan from Obama's DOE.
The project will produce a 110 megawatt power system and employ 45 permanent workers.
That's costing us just $16 million per job. One of the investment partners in this endeavor is Pacific Corporate Group (PCG). The PCG executive director is Ron Pelosi who is the "brother to Nancy's husband."
