Wake up: We're losing America!


This week I took a moment to take a look at our country. What I saw shocked, angered and frustrated me in a way I never thought the land I love could. Here is what I saw:

Last week 30,000 low income individuals mobbed HUD workers as they handed out 13,000 applications for government-subsidized housing in Atlanta, Ga. Within moments, the crowd frantically grabbed for the few pieces of paper as if their very lives depended on it. The scene looked like a food drop to starving people in a third-world country, not Atlanta.

On Thursday I watched a couple hundred protesters line the steps of the New York Stock Exchange. Were they demanding jobs? No! They were demanding more unemployment benefits. They called themselves the "ninety niners," as in 99 weeks of pay for not working. More and more people are demanding the government pay their bills. These deadbeats made me ill.

In California, one judge overturned the will of 7 million Californians by finding Proposition 8 unconstitutional and opening the flood gates of homosexual marriage in America. Now gay, lesbian, transgendered and all the other unusual lifestyle relationships will be recognized as legal marriages. Civil unions weren't enough for the homosexual community. They demanded normal marriages to recognize their abnormal behavior.

To hear one pastor from the Presbyterian church applaud the decision left me scratching my head. She said, "After I counsel couples and ascertain that they have a loving and healthy relationship I marry them." Is she kidding me? Healthy? No wonder by this point in the week I had developed a massive migraine.

Of course, we all have been watching with great interest the federal government suing a state that wants to enforce the laws already on the books against illegal immigration. That one really blows my mind. Arizonans and a great majority of Americans want our borders protected and law breakers put in jail. The response from Mr. Obama and company is a lawsuit against law enforcement. Breaking laws if you don't like them is acceptable to the current regime in Washington.

Oh and yes, who could forget Marie Antoinette Obama as she gallivanted all over Spain while her nation, whom she claims to be proud of for the first time in her adult life, struggles to pay the bills and feed their children? Hey, let them eat cake. Right, Michelle?

So we now have 40 million on food stamps, 14 million unemployed, millions receiving free health care and a growing entitlement class who demands the government meet their every need. Mr. Obama and friends merely ignore the problems or blame it all on Bush.
The once great and powerful country called America now sits by and allows an insane tyrant Ahmadinejad to obtain nuclear weapons as the leftist in the White House takes a bow for imposing the toughest sanctions against Iran yet. Tough but worthless, Mr. President, and you better hope Iran doesn't give a bit of that radioactive material to some crazy friend who hates America. Heck, that person may be working for you! Your administration is filled with hate-America folks.

Members of this Chicago dictatorship view murderers like Mao Tse-Tung as their heroes. Saul Alinsky clones now head up many areas of government. What will become of this once great nation if this group is allowed to continue unchecked?

Have we lost our country? Are we now under a dictatorship? I am getting that very feeling more and more each day. I sense the people have lost any ability to change the course we are on. Even the media, who once protected us from government corruption, are delighted to aid in the destruction.

Congress arrogantly ignores the will of the people. Voters are now having their votes overturned by one judge. Meanwhile, the most powerful man in the free world plays footsies with dangerous and determined crackpots. All of this has me seriously asking the following question: Can we survive another two years of team Obama?

Can the elections in November honestly bring us back from a total meltdown of our nation?

I'm not so sure anymore.

Is there any doubt in your mind that many of the very people who sold this nation out will be returned for another term in Congress? Look no further than my state of Arizona for your answer.

Incumbent Sen. John McCain, famous for McCain Feingold campaign finance reform, has spent $17 million on the primary alone to dupe the people of Arizona for another six years. The same man who proposed amnesty for 11 million illegals along with his pal Ted Kennedy is now calling for the fence he voted against. He now says no more bailouts when he voted for a $700 billion bailout of the banks. He is even on tape saying, "It could come down to lying [to voters] or losing [an election]. I chose lying." Yet if the polls are right, he will win another term?

A man who lies, flip flops and plays the dangerous game of politics will be sent back by the very people he deceived, and you think the nation is salvageable? I can only hope the tea party comes to our rescue in Arizona. If left to the DNC and RNC, we will send the same liars and thieves right back for more of the same.

Again, if polling is correct, Nancy Pelosi should win in a landslide. McCain will get away with lying, and "The war is lost" Harry Reid will get six more years to make a fool of himself, our country and the idiots who vote him back in.

So take a good look at your country, America. I have said it before. I thank God that my father and father-in-law, who fought valiantly in World War II, are not here to see what has been done to their country. They are both in heaven with tears running down their cheeks as they watch fellow citizens who hate America tear apart the country they loved and fought for.

I will remain optimistic for that is my nature, but without a miracle from heaven we will lose this country. We may already have.

Over 40 years of dumbing down students in public schools has paid off for liberals/progressives at this point not sure the public can awake to what is taking place, many don't understand some simply don't care, my ancestor's who fought in every war since this country was born would be ashame.

A man who lies, flip flops and plays the dangerous game of politics will be sent back by the very people he deceived, and you think the nation is salvageable?

Ditto! The problem in this country is not obama, mccain, reid, pelosi and every other traitor currenty occupying positions of leadership, it's the IDIOTS who continue to vote for them while being lied to!

Those that continue to defend obama and his policies are a lost cause, who haven't the ability to see this thug and his administration for what they are. They will continue to defend obama and his delusional policies under the guise, it's all george bush's fault!

And I'm not convinced there are not massive amounts of illegal invaders voting in our national elections, casting votes for these traitors who continue to promote amnesty on their behalf!

Someone's voting for them! Can there be that many stupid Americans running around?

Im starting to wonder if they actually ARE voted in! If Pelosi gets to keep her job, there should be some sort of investigation! Somethings gonna stink to high heaven, because she is, without a doubt, one of America's most despised politicians these days.

we will lose this country. We may already have.

"We the People" lost control of our government 140 years ago. When we understand that, then maybe we will have a chance to take it back.

Fluff and stuff, media spin, an old game, has been successful at keeping the wool pulled over the peoples eyes.

It is said that all politics is local, yet we continue to be mesmerized by the big guns at the Federal level. Why watch the minors when you can have tickets to the majors?

When times are good, people tend to pay attention to their SUV, bass boats, NASCAR, wide screen boob tube, and enjoy life in the seat of a Lazy Boy............ahhhhh.....life is good. Surely those in the Lazy Boy are thinking about the fact that liberty is eternal vigilance?

Were the people's fortunes, liberties, freedoms and lives stolen from them, or bought on the cheap?

Just an observation. The older books blow the newer books out of the water. While Hitler was busy burning books, America was busy placing them on obscure dusty innaccessable shelves. Out of reach, out of mind.

Lev.18:22
Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.

Lev.20:13
If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

Rom.1:26-27
For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature. And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

People always try to argue that Christianity is a religion of "love and acceptance", true, it is, but.....God has clear definitions about what is wrong, and what is acceptable (as seen above). This is in both the Old Testament and the New Testament. It is obvious that people want to justify their sins, all sins, but when God calls something an abomination, then that is a definite point, a sin above all other sins. I cannot, nor should anyone who believes in the Bible as Gods final word to us, accept homosexuality as "normal", it is not, no more than the guy who spend his days on the computer viewing pornographic material, they are both perversions and altogether sexual addictions.

When our nation began allowing this kind of behavior openly, as well as adultery and fornication (look at TV, it's everywhere), we began a downhill slide, and it has gotten faster every decade. Those in the liberal camps would love to make those who are against it all, out as nothing more than excessively puritanical (as though it was some sort of throw away moral) who were simply out of touch with current times.

Then again this is what happens when a nation moves away from God thinking they can do better on their own.

Pro 26:12 Seest thou a man wise in his own conceit? [there is] more hope of a fool than of him.

When wisdom, and God, are left out of the equation of one's reality, then all sorts of evil will step in to take over.

THAT is what has happened to America, a nation that was built (literally) on God's wisdom within His Word.

The good part?

America is ALIVE with action, conversation, and "all American" FIGHT against those who have assumed they have a right to take America as their own - no matter who that might be, from within and/or from without.

Thank You GR, a great post.

Not only have we already lost parts of America--Cameron County, but also the damn U S post office on South Padre Island and Port Isabel--quit losing our damn packages!

This the U S--not Mexico.

We have signature confirmation for a reason! I used it and still no one knows what happened?

Please important some real Americans to run our mail service down here--it is bad enough all the jobs are taken by illegals; our country is soooo lost.

Please send down the troops.
