Never Let a Crises Go To Waste...
« on: January 10, 2013, 06:09:00 PM »
Never Let a Crises Go To Waste...I think that is what obama is doing now...look how the talk about the economy has disapeared off the front pages of the news. Ever since the Sandy Hook School shootings the only thing we hear about is gun control.

Looks like obama is going to get away with raising taxes, raising the debt limit and getting more control over our 2nd amendment rights. Later people are going to lok back and say how did he do that?

Americans have such short attention spans.

We get the government we deserve.
"We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst. We castrate and then bid the geldings to be fruitful."

C.S. Lewis

A community may possess all the necessary moral qualifications, in so high a degree, as to be capable of self-government under the most adverse circumstances; while, on the other hand, another may be so sunk in ignorance and vice, as to be incapable of forming a conception of liberty, or of living, even when most favored by circumstances, under any other than an absolute and despotic government.

John C Calhoun, "Disquisition on Government", 1840

Didn't say that.  Giving in to the left over the years, incrementally, and allowing them to spew their bile among us has brought what we are seeing now.  We, as all Americans, have squandered our birthrights and have subsequently gotten what we deserve.

Whether or not it stays this way remains to be seen.

As for the taxes and debt ceiling stuff, yes we will yawn and piss and moan about it then be off to the next outrage, but for the second amendment part I don't think we will stand for it.

I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

Agreed.
"Timid men prefer the calm of despotism to the tempestuous sea of Liberty." - Thomas Jefferson

"All you have to do is look straight and see the road, and when you see it, don't sit looking at it - walk!" -Ayn Rand
 
"Those that trust God with their safety must yet use proper means for their safety, otherwise they tempt Him, and do not trust Him.  God will provide, but so must we also." - Matthew Henry, Commentary on 2 Chronicles 32, from Matthew Henry's Commentary on the Whole Bible

"These anti-gun fools are more dangerous to liberty than street criminals or foreign spies."--Theodore Haas, Dachau Survivor

Chase her even when she's yours.
That's the only way you'll be assured to never lose her.
