Happy Independence Day! Alas, on this July 4th, we are continuing to turn our freedoms over to an ever growing gummint encroaching on our freedoms and on many other parts of our lives. Sadly, we have more and more Americans who depend on gummint for all of their needs. They want the gummint to take care of them rather than they taking care of themselves. A prime example of that are our inner city blacks who are poor and uneducated but keep voting for those (Dimocrats) who have kept them that way as long as the gummint checks keep coming.
If the Founding Fathers were to return today, they wouldn’t recognize the Republic that they built. The level of taxation would amaze them compareed to the level of taxation that was the cause of the Revolution. Those taxes were a pittance compared to what the populace (or at least half of it) pays today.
We have a ruling class that looks on the Constitution not as a blueprint for gummint but as an impediment to growing the size of gummint and turning our country into their vision of a socialist utopia. Even though socialism has been an abject failure everywhere it’s been tried, these buttheads believe it’s because the right people haven’t been in charge and they (Obungler, Horrible Harry, exSpeaker Blinky, and Thunder Rodent Thighs) are the right people and by golly, this time they’ll make it work. Just wait until scamnesty is passed (Thanks Rubio, McRINO, and McRINO’s Mini-me, little Lindsey Graham), Dimocrats will achieve a permanent majority in this country and the rest of the country will turn into California. Goodbye Republican Party. You can thank the above idiots for making you into a permanent minority party.
Year by year there is more dependence and less independence. In a few more years we may as change it to Dependence Day.
I weep for my beloved country.
I weep with you. Who even knows about the 10 Amendment these days?
I take comfort in knowing that The Father knows exactly where we all are, and is watching it all with a never sleeping vigil. He’ll call the big game eventually.
((HUGS!!))
Tick-tock, Denny. Time to stop weeping and enjoy what is left of our Republic. The in office idiots you thank for shitcanning this nation along with the declared Progressives in the DNC were placed into office by the idiots you see daily as – neighbors.
Although, Bill Whittle, is more optimistic than I, as he believes Dependance Day is reversible: http://youtu.be/mqZkTsmv4kw
Good luck with that. One lone Senator Cruz, does not a Party make.
Shit. *Dependence
Makes me sick to my stomach too. Sad thing is that many young people don’t listen to talk radio or read web blogs either. They are too hung up on their own self serving activities so they are completely unaware of what this country used to be.
Listen to what this guy has to say about the USA.

That’s from the first episode of The Newsroom, written by liberals about a newsroom with a “Republican” anchorman who is what liberals wish Republicans were like, Dimocrats. He sez he is gonna report the news without any bias and immediately, he goes after the Tea Party and the Koch Brothers whom he calls much worse than George Soros. I started watching it but the liberal bias became just a bit too much.
Yeah, when that little piece of drek was aired a couple of my facebook friends put it up as though it was inspirational —— Bleh ! —- I , in a nice way, pointed out that, that dialogue was created by some unknown writer on the staff, approved by a producer & mouthed by a brain-dead actor, a piece of fiction! Nothing more . Then I put up JFK’s speech at the Berlin Wall as an example of Non-fiction. —– When I hear some dumb-ass say how bad this country is, I always inquire as to their example of where their “Nirvana” is.
Although I’m pessimistic, I’ve no choice but to carry on with my life and testify to the truth when the opportunity arises. What more can we do than try to be positive influences in whatever small ways present themselves? The world is a lot bigger than us, but God is a lot bigger than the world. I take comfort in that thought, and aspire to live as if it’s true, whatever the nature of our reality may be.
I to weep for this nation. It is a former shell of its great self. In a few more years it will be but a shadow of itself, and no one will recognize it, not even the young people who are so self-absorbed with their smart phones. What a shameful, pitiful end to a former great nation.
I can sure identify with that statement, defshepard. I can’t even share the info of what’s really going on with the young people in my world. “Don’t want to hear that kind of crap! O’s changing this country for the good – finally!” Find myself just sharing with like-minds, and not influencing those who need to be influenced.
Makes me weep some more.
Take hope. We, historically, have always prevailed. The American people are indefatigable despite the heaps thrown upon us. The supprt system will collapse and only those who can make a “real” living will survive.
