This is a great read, InTheKnow.
Personally, I won't go down without a fight. Have the next generations to consider.
Thanx for putting this up and acknowledging your inspiration for your article.
Like an old penny, I will turn up again to read more from you.

You can add another one
to your list. Once Totally unfettered abortion is in place,we can expect nationwide legalization of assisted suicide to follow. With the gov't involved in universal "health care", and benefits limited more than ever, why keep the severly handicapped, the terminally (who aren't choosing suicide and the old and infirm around?
Can we say "Eugenics". We are playing with fire and we're gonna get burned. Even the idiots that put Ocimmie in office.
Great work, ITK. BTW, are you active Military?

You might want to add
Reparation to the list. Already R Reich and C.(Criminal)Wrangle are talking about creating jobs, but excepting white men in favor of poor "minorities". News Flash!! the vast majority of "poor minorities" don't want to work. Work is outside their comfort zone. they're more comfortable watching TV until their gov't handout arrives in their mailbox. Taking care of the "poor" is what got us into this financial boondoggle in the first place. Can't expect the dims to "get it" tho. Facts trigger severe allergies with these "leaders" of our country. They break out in Bush hatred rhetoric, their eyes glaze over, and the hysteria of denial cuts of all worthwhile communication. These bricks for brains DC creeps need to be charged, tried and convicted of treason and either hung or shipped to Europe never allowed to return.
Did I say that? Was it Politically Correct? I hope not.
Good work, ITK
OOps, I notice that my first "comment" that didn't want to"take" has finally appeared. Since I've written this, I will go ahead and post it anyway. Sorry if I'm carried away.

Hopefully the next generation will have the same freedoms and opportunities so many gave their lives to give us.

Don’t let the opposition get you worked up. They aren’t worth your ire.
Cultural issues notwithstanding, the distinctions between private and public domains of authority will become even blurrier in the coming years. Using tax dollars to perform abortions by unwilling doctors is only the beginning.
There seems to be no cure for the Bush Derangement Syndrome. Don’t expect the left to quit hounding the poor man until they find another whipping boy. It’s the classic victim mentally at play; “Not my fault”.
Thanks for posting.

I’m sorry, but I missed your question about my military status. I retired in 2005 from the USAF. I also have prior enlisted time with the Marines.
The Uniformed Code of Military Justice (UCMJ), which covers all active duty personnel, strictly prohibits members from making disparaging remarks about any elected government official.
Fortunately retirees are not bound by the UCMJ. So I can voice what most of my active duty friends and colleagues think but cannot say; Obama sucks!

ALL IN THE NAME OF "CHANGE"
Well, the voters wanted change, and they're going to get it. Great post that sums things up nicely. We're about to embark on a little sleigh ride to Hell, I only hope the country, as we are still able to know it, will survive until the sun will once again shine down.

can you say socialism?
I knew you could :o)
Comrades, the dawning of a new socialist utopia is upon us, Dear Leader Obama will show you the errors of the capitalist system.
Capitalism hasn't given us much has it?
So what if it turned America into an economic powerhouse and lifted millions out of poverty by the sweat of their brow? Who cares if it has made America the greatest country on earth for over 200 years?
Dear Leader says we must change, so we'll change.
Say it with me Seig Hei.... er I mean, Yes We Can!
Great post INTHENOW

First of all, thanks for your service. Second, great post. We need more folks over here to hear what is really happening in Europe with their medical care, immigration policies and the rest of the DS platform.

We’ll probably see the demise, not sure we’ll live long enough to witness resurgence. I hope I’m wrong and it only turns out to be a speed bump.
Thanks for dropping by.

“Who cares if it has made America the greatest country on earth for over 200 years?”
To the liberal elite and their followers, America’s strength was built through exploiting minorities. The evil white man’s boot always on the neck of anyone of color.
While there’s a grain of truth to that overstatement, the left purposely ignores the cultural mindset of yesterday with today, and by doing so perpetuates victimhood. Which is just fine with those who make a living off exploiting the race game. Like getting elected president.
In the name of “change”, the baby goes out with the bathwater...namely the capitalist system.
Thanks for the kind words.

It’s akin to standing on the sidelines watching a train hurl toward an open chasm. In this case, the conductor is Obama and the Pullmans are packed with a naive adoring crowd.
Unfortunately, the locomotive is also pulling the unwilling...to include future generations.
Thanks for stopping by.

Only way to stop DS America...
...is to turn the GOP 180 degree's from the downward spiral its now in. I continue to believe that if that is done then there are more than enough conservative voters to provide a win. And we need that win in 2010 more so than 2012 in order to stop the Obama DS steam roller.
But, like you, I don't see that happening. DD

Sage comment. Republicans, Independents, Libertarians, moderates, conservatives, et al, MUST find common ground, or 2008 will be repeated again and again.
Perhaps the anointed one himself will unwittingly provide the catalyst we need.
Thanks for posting.

They are so gung ho to open the borders, so they can get those votes too. When does it end?
I for one am tired of giving so much of my paycheck to the government.
In Italy during the 70's and early 80's, my dad was running a company over there connected to TRW. He had some health problems and being a top executive they always got him to the best hospitals and to the front of the lines.
Thank you for your service to the country!

I saw part of a "documentary" the other night by the inimitable Michael Moore on the health system in Canada and GB ...maybe more but I forget. He never had one complainer!! Every single person he had on raved about the health care. Even if I didn't think he was a liar from the word go, I would doubt this show. There is no way everyone could be deliriously happy with a govt system!!
But he didn't even TRY to get another pt of view.
GEORGETWIN! I just read about the accents! Had to roar. It's amazing that so many people who hate the US system come here from some other place.

If the reprieve doesn't come before 2016 I may not be here to see it!!
But to be honest I don't believe I will be here to see us get over what is being done to the country. Those growing up will accept the status quo and not know any other way and the liberal teachers and professors will make sure they never learn. I never thought I would see the day the country started its downhill slide. I wish I hadn't.
Good post, inthenow!! glad I came.

Like you, I’m doubtful this train can be turned. Middle America is too dumbed down, and as you mention, the youth get their daily dose of indoctrination from school.
I’ve never wanted to be more wrong with a prediction.
Thanks for commenting and please stick around for as long as you can. America needs your voice and wisdom...now more than ever.

There are many voices with more wisdom than I have who are not being heard, or listened to when they are heard, unhappily.
All of the sensible, intelligent economists are being ignored in the effort to transform this country into a socialist nation. The fact that socialism has failed time after time is ignored.
I wish I could see some "light at the end of a tunnel" but it's a long way off.
