    I hope it passes. All you guys who think you can stop this country's descent into madness are crazy. The Hindenburg is lit and is going down. It will take a hard crash for people to realize that these 'lofty' progressive goals and ideas are nothing more than a national suicide pact.

    We are still the largest influencer on our fate, but this nation is lost. When the chief law enforcement officer in the land wants to make it illegal for you to defend yourself. When a state prosecutor will not accept the verdict of a Jury. When people blame a man for defending himself, when it is the very thug culture and lack of respect for others that they one one hand deplore and on the other call their culture that is responsible for his death. When the govt doesn't respect the law, know the law and uses the law preferentially against citizens and sees real civil rights as threat to their vision of community rights- that is all wrong.

    Like that cargo 747 that had the catastrophic weight shift, we have had a shift in this country that has set in motion our ultimate crash. And it is only in this crash that blame can be justly fixed.

    Keep arranging those deck chairs. I'm making sure my kids get in a lifeboat.

    Sadly I believe that there is a lot of truth to what you're saying. I believe that we can still turn back from the brink, but I do not see the guts to do so.

    I don't like being passive aggressive, but when most people don't see the problem or think the problem is actually the solution- what can you do? You can't help a drunk until he realizes he has a problem.

    Obama knows this strategy. Obama care isn't to 'fix' health care, its designed to accelerate the destruction of the current health care system so we have to put a single payer in place.

    You mean you don't understand that was an analogy, one that relates to his desire to prepare his children for what are now almost certain even greater societal problems in the not so distant future?

    I guess I don't get the analogy. I don't see how putting them in the Titanic's lifeboat is preparing them for the problems he believes they will be facing.
