Stolen from a friend...........
Scary Obituary
In 1887 Alexander Tyler, a Scottish history professor at the University of Edinburgh ,
had this to say about the fall of the Athenian Republic some 2,000 years prior:
"A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent
form of government.
A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover that they can
vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury.
From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates who promise the
most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally
collapse over loose fiscal policy, (which is) always followed by a dictatorship."
"The average age of the world's greatest civilizations from the beginning of history, has
been about 200 years.
During those 200 years, these nations always progressed through the following sequence:
From bondage to spiritual faith;
From spiritual faith to great courage;
>From courage to liberty;
From liberty to abundance;
From abundance to complacency;
From complacency to apathy;
From apathy to dependence;
From dependence back into bondage."
The Obituary follows:
Born 1776, Died 2012
It doesn't hurt to read this several times.
Professor Joseph Olson of Hamline University School of Law in St. Paul , Minnesota ,
points out some interesting facts concerning the last Presidential election:
Number of States won by: Obama: 19 McCain: 29
Square miles of land won by: Obama: 580,000 McCain: 2,427,000
Population of counties won by: Obama: 127 million McCain: 143 million
Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by: Obama: 13.2 McCain: 2.1
Professor Olson adds: "In aggregate, the map of the territory McCain won was
mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens of the country.
Obama territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in low income
tenements and living off various forms of government welfare..."
Olson believes the United States is now somewhere between the
"complacency and apathy" phase of Professor Tyler's definition of democracy,
with some forty percent of the nation's population already having reached
the "governmental dependency" phase.
If Congress grants amnesty and citizenship to twenty million criminal
invaders called illegal's - and they vote - then we can say goodbye to the
USA in fewer than five years.
If you are in favor of this, then by all means, delete this message.
If you are not, then pass this along to help everyone realize just how much is at
stake, knowing that apathy is the greatest danger to our freedom..
This is truly scary!
Of course we are not a democracy, we are a Constitutional Republic .
Someone should point this out to Obama.
Of course we know he and too many others pay little attention to The Constitution.
There couldn't be more at stake than on Nov 2012

Congress had set things up nicely for him. They had blown all the money the US had. They had gotten us deeply into debt, and were not interested in changing their spending habits. Obama ordained that a universal health care plan MUST be written and passed, and such was done by shutting the Republicans out. The bill was passed without any Republican approval. Every day under the man who saved us from George Bush sees more and more and more of our liberties disappear. More and more people are losing jobs, more and more jobs are leaving the states, and more and more Chicago hoodlums join our government, I suppose to make sure we like what they ...

We now have "hate crimes" and "hate speech", anyone caught smoking is labeled a criminal, those going to church are terrorists, and only rednecks want guns. We have spy drones in our skies. And our government wants to control what is on the internet so that we never know the truth. Who dares call this AMERICA? It most assuredly isn't the America I grew up in.
What is that for? To keep the serfs in line??
We have BHO; doing whatever the Hell he wants; and what does anyone say?
NOTHING!
It's bad; it is really bad...
But when this POS leaked out information about Israel's possible strike on Iran...I knew what I'd though was right..he is here for one thing; to divide and conquer...
