My. God Orwellian does not begin to describe this. I have a very good friend involved with a militia in North Carolina based on the premise that the country is going to Hell rather quickly. Her firearms collection is...impressive.(All I have is an SKS moded to take regular AK mags and a Tommy Gun) I have been sceptical of 9/11 "truther" stuff( I still am) and not really hip to training in the NC woods for the next revolution. What I can't do at this point is say it's all paranoia. We have a very, very large problem here, and the National security State seems to be a permanent fixture. Piss off a cop? Enjoy your pepper spray and tazing...if you are lucky enough to not get shot. Campaign worker for Ron Paul carrying cash contributions in the airport? Don't even <i>think</i>about asking for your legal rights. When did being a conservative turn into being an apologist for turning our country into a police state, btw? Just wondering. Oh. My. God

Yes. Trying to find anyone whom wants to be involved with politics and run for office has to be suspect. Seems they all come up with a hidden agenda or some group, person starts pulling their strings. We need reset back to the Constitution as it was written and "We the People" need to do a lot better job of holding our elected representatives accountable and that includes booting their asses out of office!! Reset. Yes.

But power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Send a common sense grown-up to congress, and eventually that person will be as bad as the ones that are there now. Term limits would be nice, and might solve that problem, if it wasn't for the fact that it's the corrupt pieces of garbage that would have to enact it. I hope the reset button isn't necessary, but it's looking more and more like it will have to be. I’d like to think we aren’t either. But power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

If we can install some common sense grown-up types congress critters, maybe we can begin to steer this Titanic sized monstrosity back towards a center right course. I am truly scared that if that doesn't happen, we'll have a socio-economic collapse that would drive the world back into the dark ages. I’d like to think we aren’t there yet.
