"You damned well oughta be afraid. But not so afraid as to not fight back."
Exactly Rodger. The same tactics have been used to every dictatorship.
1) Get the easily duped on your side. *tick*
2) Indoctrinate the young (e.g. Hitler youth). *tick*
3) Scare/intimidate the rest. *tick*
4) Dispose of the non-conformists. *Wait for it*
What I gathered from the article is what I already see. Break us down from the inside: delude the people, collapse our monetary system, control whatever was private, weaken our defense system. The world is not watching, our enemies are waiting.
Yesterday the song Edelweiss popped into my head and I began to sing out loud. I went to Amazon and ordered the Sound of Music, DVD. Why? This time around I can walk in the shoes of the Von Trapp Family as their friends and acquaintances betray one another and their homeland for the sake of "ease". The Rodgers and Hammerstein sentimental song:
Edelweiss, Edelweiss
Every morning you greet me
Small and white clean and bright
You look happy to meet me
Blossom of snow may you bloom and grow
Bloom and grow forever
Edelweiss,Edelweiss
Bless my homeland forever.
Francis Scott Key wrote of the song of our history, heart and allegiance:
THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER
Oh, say can you see by the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
How many among this infiltrated population of America understand what we are losing?
[the other three verses here: http://tinyurl.com/37futt
LIVE FREE OR DIE GOD SAVE AMERICA
*yep. it's that serious to me*
Correction: Not losing. Trampling upon and willingly throwing away.
I am ready willing and able to fight back.
Did you know that the grandson of Francis Scott Key wrote in opposition to Lincoln's invasion of the South? Lincoln had him imprisoned at Ft. McHenry, where his grandfather wrote the Star Spangled Banner. He was from Balitmore. He was just one of hundreds of publishers editors and columnist that were arrested and imprisoned with no charges brought against them.
Good ole "Honest Abe".
That make ya feel better Rog? See you in the camp.
Malcolm Gladwell's book: THE TIPPING POINT comes to mind.
The question arises in the conversation? Do we do all we can to encourage a quick, total and utter collapse of the American system, knowing full well that it will mean revolution. -or- Do we attempt to salvage the remnants of what once was, work within the inveitable building to that tipping point and have a set plan ready to initiate once that point is reached....and the whole thing falls apart.
Either way....we are headed to a confrontation on all fronts: political, sociological, ideological, and cultural. They are all driven by the monetary/fiscal collapse. That too, it seems, is inevitable given the takeover of the engine of commerce by the Federal Government.
A revolution would be the end for us.
You see if we fight each other, that would be the Que for China? Or? to stomp the living crap out of us, then own us.There seems to be no good outcome?

Xero, that is exactly where my thinking keeps taking me. There is no good outcome I can find.

As my old pappy put it, "You can't win, you can't break even, you can't even get out of the game." There is no happy outcome to what is happening with the country at this time. --Vice Sgt Boone
You can just identify the Federal Government as a failed identity and then just pull the plug. This is not N vs S, lots of NRA members up North as well.
Yes, we could legally and Constitutionally disband the federal government and start anew. 35 states I believe it is. Not a lawyer, don't play one on tv, but from what I did read it could be done
The opportunity may be upon us courtesy of the "terror attack" (uh... man caused disaster!) that has been claimed to be coming to a Washington DC near you (Latest threat from Al Qaeda). If we are lucky, it will clean out most of the career politicians and moonbats, so we can start over! Obama's pick for Homeland Insecurity is already mucking things up as only a moonbat can.
