Don't you wish we had a reset button? We made it to 2011, no small feat when you consider the obstacles our country has had to endure; Collapsed real estate markets, bailouts, cities and towns on the verge of bankruptcy, the plunging dollar, the rising cost of food, oil and basic needs, it's really quite amazing. Our republic has been challenge from the inside in a way that it makes it hard to defend ourselves. I'm not saying Republicans or Democrats are enemies, but the socialist attitudes that at times resemble Marxism and Communism are prevalent in our government. The progressive movement has been building almost as dramatically as the Tea Party movement. The progressive agenda is a bit more covert, they prefer a quiet backdoor approach.
President Obama still lives in a whirlwind of conspiracy, a presidency that started out as a fairytale for some and a nightmare for others. The one question we as a country have to ask ourselves is; Are we better off now than when Obama took the Presidency? Yes, he did inherit some of the problems, but every president has, and going on to 3 years I think that excuse has been worn out, these are his problems now.
2 years ago Fox News commentator Glenn Beck said that "you will not recognize your own country in 2 years", and quite frankly, he was right. I can't help but wonder what our country will look like this time next year. Or an even darker though, will we have merged into the "global" Community and economically be on the same level as some 3rd world countries. This socialist agenda being forced upon an entrepreneurial society will only result in uprising.
Can our republic withstand the destruction of it's foundation from the inside? We have to dig deep and recognize that sometimes wrong is wrong and we have to stand up against it, the Tea Party has. In essence those of us that want to protect our way of life are the Tea Party.
I remember someone saying to me when the McCain/Obama 08 campaigns were at full swing, they said "McCain represents the old way, we need a fresh new way, we need Obama, we need real change" and my response was 'Change for the sake of change isn't always a good thing".
One thing for sure, we got change, now most of us are hoping and praying for a change back.
