OMG! Palin was right.

Well...you can say that about just about anyone. One thing is certain, our country wouldn't still be mired in a recession, a shrinking middle-class, shrinking household wealth, the poor getting poorer. Nor would we be seeing the foreign policy failures, one after another.

Only libtards are happy with obummer because their aim is to destroy America. obummer is not a failed president. His goal was to destroy America and he, and his ilk, are succeeding at that.

But, Americans are a resilient lot. We are at our best, when things are at their worst. We will survive this attack on our great nation, and we will rebound to greatness.

The last election was very disheartening. We knew what Oabama's goals were and still re-elected him. I think this country, as designed by the Constitution, is over. It will have to be restored after the total financial collapse.

I'm not as negative as that. I believe in America and Americans. Some Americans need to be hit in the face with a wet mop before they wake up and accept reality. But, wake up they will. There will always be that segment of our population that yearn for a socialist state; the willing benefactors who are little better than sheep or cattle, suckling at the tits of the gov-mint pig, and the "pigs" of Animal Farm that prosper as poverty pimps i.e. democrap party politicians. But, good Americans, which is most of us, have got to come together and renew "AMERICA," and the true promise of America where anyone can be anything they want, and which is why so many people from other countries want to come here.

They won't wake up. They are becoming more and more sleepy and disinterested. Too many Americans (over half) are asking what the country can do for them and not what they can do for the country. I think it was Benjamin Franklin who said we will have a Republic until the people realize they can vote themselves money. We are there. The Democrats are Santa Claus and the Republicans are mean. Americans are not mature and responsible enough to vote for fiscal responsibility, imo.

[Woof!]

I agree.

I would have stopped the sentence at "vote."

Want to do some Russia spotting?
The island of Little Diomede, Alaska (foreground left)
and the island of Big Diomede, Russia (rear right) are situated in the Bering Sea.
The International Dateline runs between the islands.

This adds a new dimension towards Russia's actions to me.

Interesting article. It reminds me of a book I am reading, one chapter is about Social Proofing. When a public figure commits suicides, suicide rates go up. But here is the interesting/disturbing thing, fatal car wrecks and plane crashes go up also. Car crashes are 3 times more fatal in the 2 months following a very public suicide. The theory is that these people are really killing themselves while trying to save face with their families/friends. Commercials about teen suicide actually increase teen suicide. So, it appears if you are surrounded by depressing thoughts and surroundings, it not only causes more direct suicides, but also indirect. I cant think of a more depressing place than Russia.

What a country and life is like without God and Christ permeating the majority of a society. It is dark and disturbing and you can feel it in the air. And yes Palin was right about this as well.

What's the name of the book?

We spent 10 days in Russia back in 1997, adopting our daughter. That was in January, so it was cold and dreary, but beyond that
was an obvious melancholy among the people.

Our translator, Yuri, quipped to me, "The first thing you Americans put on every morning...is your smile." His observation says more about Russians, then it does about us.

If it's ever restored. This is not the same people that defeated the Nazi's and empirial Japan, America is mostly full of people with their hands out, who know nothing of sacrafice or hard work. Most kids I know today can't even carry on a friggin conversation.
