Alphecca says that New York State, on the other hand, is being inundated with a swarm of proposed gun control laws.

Free in Idaho wonders why he should be obligated to vote Republican just to keep a Democrat out of office, in light of the Arlen Specter spectacle.

Sebastian notes that the Democrats are 'clearing the field' for Specter now that he has switched Parties.

Texas Fred, as always, provides riveting commentary, this time on the Arlen Specter spectacle.

The Newbius Papers also weighs in on the Arlen Specter spectacle with 'A RINO Changes His Stripes.'

The War on Guns asks the vital question, 'Where do these fascist freaks come from?'

From Rev. Kharma: 'Harbinger of Things to Come.' Good reading.

All of these cases in South Carolina and around the nation have a direct Mexican connection.

Second Amendment News Roundup for 4/28/09

Focusing on guns, politics, and news of interest, here is today's Second Amendment News Roundup:

21 Guns Salute has a must-read on the practice of 'drug control' similar to gun control, which places grown adults in the position of a child that needs supervision. Great read!

Conservative Libertarian Outpost blogs on one heckuva event conducted by a true star who happens to be a fierce gun-rights proponent.

Alphecca echoes my sentiments exactly concerning that idiot, Jimmy Carter.

Bloviating Zeppelin highlights the silver lining behind the dark cloud of the Mexican swine flu problem.

Breda posts all the info on her main page concerning tonight's edition of Gun Nuts Radio.

We warned this was coming if the perfect political storm arrived in Washington--an ultra-liberal President with an ultra-liberal Congress. Read it all, and ponder what should be done.

Days of our Trailers points to more corruption in Chicago. Nothing good ever came out of there but the Cubs.

Robb Allen writes about his preparations for a big shoot coming up this weekend. I particularly like the part about smoking a cigar as part of the action. Nothing like a good stogie.

Sebastian points out that New Yorkers are still finding ways to kill each other, despite 'the Bastard's' rabid anti-gun stance.

Say Uncle issues an urgent action alert concerning a Tennessee bill on restaurant carry.

Pax Parabellum says that Fox News is reporting that GOP Senator Arlen Specter is going to run for re-election as a Democrat. Makes no difference to me.

A Rank Stench Emanating from the White House

If you have gotten a whiff of the putrid smell of something foul coming from the direction of Washington, DC, it is likely to be from the White House.

Obama's latest actions compromise the security of the country, label opponents as 'supporters of torture,' and aid and abet America's enemies all over the world.

Read all about it in my latest column at Columbia Conservative Examiner.

Texas Fred announces that his home town is going to have one big mega-Tea Party on July 4.

Walls of the City has today's MUST-read that shows us that the numbers tell the story. Read it all.

The Bobo Files posts this week's 'Carnival of Politics.' Lots of links to some good stuff!

The Rustmeister informs us of the latest anti-gun horse-shhhttt from the Commercial Appeal.

Tam lays it on the line with a good dose of reality with her 'quote of the day.'

Ride Fast and Shoot Straight informs us that the NRA is considered a non-government organization at the U.N. and comments that it's important to have them there to keep an eye on the shenanigans coming out of the United Nations.

Robb Allen makes an excellent point about the futility of banning guns.

Sebastian says that the local media did a piss-poor job at covering a Ted Nugent event in Pennsylvania.

Say Uncle notes that Rush Limbaugh is now a big supporter of the Humane Society, which is anti-hunting. As one who knows a bit of the background of this, I believe Rush got sucked into this because of his beloved cat. But I am willing to bet I love dogs more than Rush loves his cat, and I am certainly not going to align myself with a group like the Humane Society because of it. There are better ways to support the care and treatment of pets.

We knew this was coming. Michelle Malkin reports that Democrats in Congress are already blaming the swine flu outbreak on Republicans.

Hit 'Em Where It Hurts

Hit 'em where it hurts...a way to groin-kick the new Obama fascist government/big bank conglomerate that seeks to dominate our economy.

What if we, the citizens, simply refuse to play along?

Feinstein's Non-Ethics

When it comes to ethics in the manner in which she conducts herself as a U.S. Senator, Dianne Feinstein, D-CA, has none.

Remember that this is the woman who admitted that she carries a handgun for protection, although she would deny that right to tens of millions of Americans. And this is the woman, who, as the ranking member of a Senate panel that awards government contracts on behalf of the military, made sure that multi-millions of dollars of government contracts were funneled to her husband's business.

Now, it seems, the Senator is at it again:

On the day the new Congress convened this year, Sen. Dianne Feinstein introduced legislation to route $25 billion in taxpayer money to a government agency that had just awarded her husband's real estate firm a lucrative contract to sell foreclosed properties at compensation rates higher than the industry norms.

Mrs. Feinstein's intervention on behalf of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. was unusual: the California Democrat isn't a member of the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs with jurisdiction over FDIC; and the agency is supposed to operate from money it raises from bank-paid insurance payments - not direct federal dollars.

Of oourse, never once has the ethically-challenged Senator been investigated by the Senate for corruption. Since 2006 her cronies have controlled Congress.

"There Will Be Blood"

Harvard author and financial crisis guru Niall Ferguson has landed with a thud in Ottawa, spreading messages that could make even the most confident policy makers squirm.

The global crisis is far from over, has only just begun, and Canada is no exception, Mr. Ferguson said in an interview before delivering a presentation to public-policy think tank, Canada 2020.

Policy makers and forecasters who see a recovery next year are probably lying to boost public confidence, he said. And the crisis will eventually provoke political conflict, albeit not on the scale of a world war, but violent all the same.

“There will be blood.”

The entire article, published in the Globe and Mail, takes a rather grim approach to the chances of economic recovery this year, contrary to the rhetoric of late by Barack Obama and some government economists.

With GM on the brink of bankruptcy and shutting down most of its factories for the summer, and with Chrysler definitely headed to bankruptcy, Ferguson's prediction seems to hold merit.

"The End of the World as We Know It"

Obama's first 100 days in office have signaled the end of the 'era of American exceptionalism.' No longer is America as a concept or as a nation viewed as any more special than, say, Castro's Cuba or Chavez's Venezuela.

This dangerous vacuum of American leadership is discussed in my column today at Columbia Conservative Examiner.

Give it a read, and pass it along. Thanks!

More on Controversial Civilian National Service Bill

The comments keep rolling in on the new law creating a massive civilian national service corp. And the controversy continues, as well.

My new article at Columbia Conservative Examiner has it all.

This is a follow-up to yesterday's article.

Thanks for clicking on the link and reading. All comments are welcome.

Second Amendment News Roundup for 4/24/09

Focusing on guns, politics, and news of interest, here is today's Second Amendment News Roundup:

Nicki cactus-jacks a 'gentlelady from Florida who is a hypocritical sow.' Take a look!

Days of our Trailers comments on Obama's new national youth service act, and he disagrees with my assessment that the bill forbids opposition. I will grant that the intention is to prevent participating organizations from opposing this law or organizing protests, but it just added hundreds of new organizations that are forbidden from exercising their rights. Maybe just a matter of semantics, but I still see this as an assault on our liberties.

Conservative Libertarian Outpost posts a statement from the NRA stating that Americans don't need the NRA to tell them Obama is a danger to their liberties...the citizens are telling that to the NRA!

CNS News is reporting that the Defense department is reversing its ammo directive due to public outcry.

From Mike Vanderboegh: 'Leave Us the Hell Alone or We Shall Not Leave You Alone This Side of Hell.'

Mindful Musings alerts us to a new knife company the owner of which is a big supporter of the 2nd Amendment.

Walls of the City updates us on the story concerning Napolitano's claim that the 9/11 terrorists 'came through Canada.'

The Rustmeister has important news on Netanyahu's assessment of Israeli relations, or the lack thereof, under Obama.

Insight on Freedom reports that Obama is set to sign the ominous 'Law of the Sea' treaty, which has been rejected by every President, both Republican and Democrat, since Ronald Reagan.

Mike McCarville posts a certificate that's suitable for framing. I want one, and I think you will too!

Armed Citizen provides a MUST-read entitled, 'Apologists.'

Alphecca has some good news from North Carolina concerning guns.

The Wandering Minstrel shares the quote of the day on guns from the greatest of all--President Ronald Wilson Reagan.

Traction Control points to essential reading concerning what Obama is pressuring the mainstream media to say about his first 100 days in office.

Sebastian informs us of some rather interesting pro-gun editorials of late. Take a look.

From Ride Fast and Shoot Straight: 'How Empires Fail.'

Codrea's Gun Rights Examiner describes a clear danger to gun owners everywhere in the present political climate.

Hofmann's St. Louis Gun Rights Examiner alerts us to the fact that Oath Keepers would fit that idiot Napolitano's definition of 'right wing extremists.'

And now, for your Friday reading pleasure, An Ol' Broad's Ramblings presents the finest political cartoons on the Internet. These fall under the heading, 'Head Weasel.'

Bill Quietly Becomes Law That Forbids Opposition! (UPDATE)

Note: Scroll down for an important update!

Have you ever heard of legislation in the United States of America that forbids any opposition to it?

Well, we now have it, and it is the law of the land, courtesy of the thugs in the White House and Congress.

Read all about it in my column at Columbia Conservative Examiner.

Thank-you.

Update notice! I went to the Thomas site and downloaded the entire bill from top to bottom so that I could examine it myself. Indeed, the amendment that prevented opposition was included in the final document as a provision to prevent employees in these agencies from engaging in partisan political activity while on the job. I stand corrected.

THIS POLL IS PATENTLY FALSE!

In a blatant attempt to snowball the American public into believing Obama has overwhelming public support for the direction he is taking the country, the AP issued a poll today that is patently FALSE--particularly in the manner in which it is portrayed.

Using Obama's personal approval rating of 64% as a supposed indication that Americans overwhelmingly support his policies, the AP poll failed to show his skyrocketing negative numbers.

In addition, they merely stated that 'a majority' of Americans agree with the direction the country is headed without providing the exact numbers and percentages.

A majority by how much? How many? What is the percentage?

One had to read down to almost the end of the article to discover the exact figures of this supposed 'majority.' And guess what? It's not a majority at all, but only 48 PERCENT!

Not even half of those polled agree with the direction Obama is taking the country, yet the AP reported it as a 'majority.'

Here is the article.

Want to see how Obama is REALLY doing with some accurate polling numbers? Try this!

Obama's negatives stand at 44%. But the real clincher is when you compare those who 'strongly approve' with those who 'strongly disapprove.' In that equation only 6 percentage points separate Obama's positive numbers from his negatives.

Hardly a resounding endorsement from the electorate!

Tam points to a handy Terrorist/Not a Terrorist chart, just in case you're having trouble telling them apart...

Insight on Freedom provides essential reading entitled, 'Clean Energy is a Dirty Lie.'

Conservative Libertarian Outpost says that the firestorm of controversy over the DHS report on so-called 'right wing terrorists' is growing.

Days of our Trailers reports that the Leftwing 'League of Women Voters' (are they still around!!??) held an anti-gun 'forum' in Illinois.

From John Jacob H: 'Geese Are Evil and Need to Die!'

Blogstitution has a great read entitled, 'Why Not Release ALL the Memos?'

Free in Idaho has the quote of the day. Take a look!

By the way, what did YOU do for 'Earth Day' yesterday? Not being one to pass up a celebration, I lit up a few cigars, let the pickup truck run idle for over an hour, topped off my gas tank at the filling station, and turned the air conditioning up as high as it would go. I started to deliberately break one of those newfangled light bulbs that are supposedly enviro-friendly, but the gub'mint told me it was poison if you break one. So I took it outside and broke it. Hope the mercury from one of those safe, environment-friendly light bulbs didn't kill anybody.

Napolitano Ignites Yet Another Firestorm

As if it were not enough to issue a report that refers to most mainstream Americans as 'potential homegrown terrorists,' DHS Director Janet 'Veterans-Are-Terrorists' Napolitano has done it again.

This time her mouth has caused somewhat of an 'international incident.' Read all about it in my column today at Columbia Conservative Examiner.

Writing for the Examiner has been a life-saver of sorts for me in light of recent health issues and the accompanying expense. I am paid according to the number of people who read the column.

Thus, it is vitally important that you click on the link and read. This is most helpful, and I deeply appreciate all you have done thus far in this area. Please continue.

The Department of Education has signed an agreement with Chinese Communists who put dissidents in 're-education' camps!

Rev. Kharma highlights Obama's laughable 'budget cut'--if you can call it that with a straight face.

Second Amendment News Roundup for 4/21/09

Focusing on guns, politics, and news of interest, here is today's Second Amendment News Roundup:

Codrea's Gun Rights Examiner covers a lot of ground today on various issues. Take a look!

Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership provides interesting reading today that's worth attention--'Jews Still Get It Wrong.'

Open Carry has a good discussion going on their forum concerning the ruling of the 9th Circuit court panel yesterday on incorporating 2A.

Tam posts a timely reminder that although the decision by the 9th Circuit is limited, it IS a major step forward in the right direction. I agree.

Ride Fast and Shoot Straight has a somewhat different take on the ruling. Particularly note the part about guns being allowed 'only in our homes.'

Alphecca provides more insightful commentary on the issue.

Hofmann's St. Louis Gun Rights Examiner maintains that, in light of yesterday's ruling, the incorporation of the 2nd Amendment nationally is in sight. I hope he's right!

Way Up North posts some shocking figures on the plummeting crime rate in Anchorage.

2A Musing has some ammo for sale!

21 Guns Salute writes about some mail he received from a writer at WaPo and the response he offered to the writer's article. Good reading.

Days of our Trailers points to the template the media uses in their bias against guns.

Conservative Libertarian Outpost reports that a group of scientists in Britain are claiming that 'fat people' are destroying the earth. I kid you not.

Notoriously Conservative has the complete story of the beauty queen who got cactus-jacked for speaking her mind about the definition of marriage. The underlying message? Exercise your right to free speech, and the speech police will punish you severely, even in America. There has to be a special rotisserie in the hottest part of hell reserved just for these worthless swine.

Speaking of worthless swine, Bloviating Zeppelin shows us THIS 'collection of dolts.' Take a look.

A Cautious Approach to 2A Incorporation Ruling

While the ruling of the 9th Circuit Court is a major victory for gun rights activists, the ruling is limited. Much more needs to happen before the 2A is incorporated nationally.

And this is my topic today at Columbia Conservative Examiner.

Remember I still need you to click on the link, read the articles, and pass them along. This is very important.

And thanks a million for your help!

GUN ALERT! 9th Circuit Incorporates 2A!

The Second Amendment has been incorporated by a panel of the 9th Circuit Court, which is seen as a major victory for gun rights.

Eugene Volokh of The Volokh Conspiracy has the story.

But, as Volokh goes further to warn, this may not be the resounding victory gun rights advocates had hoped for. Gun shows lost out as Volokh cites here.

And then there is the broader issue as to whether or not The Second Amendment is incorporated against state and local governments, in spite of the panel's decision.

Volokh goes further to cite the actual wording of a concurring opinion on the panel, which further creates at least some doubt as to the consequences of the Panel's ruling.

Second Amendment News Roundup for 4/20/09

Focusing on guns, politics, and news of interest, here is today's Second Amendment News Roundup:

Mike McCarville reports major news today that Obama has caused a severe divide in the nation among voters. Take a look at his 'strongly disapprove' numbers and his 'strongly approve' numbers!

The Newbius Papers posts essential reading on the 10th Amendment and state sovereignty from Founding Father James Madison.

Texas Fred reports that he is going to be on the radio April 24. He also makes this important announcement that may be true about a lot of us in the era of Obama!

David Codrea notes that this is the 10th anniversary of the Columbine tragedy, and comments that we still haven't learned our lessons.

Kurt Hofmann has another article on Columbine that shows how the gun control lobby is still trying to exploit that tragedy.

Sipsy Street Irregulars points to a MUST-read, indicating that the 'April monster still lurks.'

Western Rifle Shooters Association cites an important milestone for an important resource!

JR provides an update on the status of a bill in Texas that would allow concealed carry on college campuses.

Michelle Malkin provides a riveting update on the continuing fallout from CNN's coverage of the Tea Parties, the reporter who argued with a participant, and the network's attempts at covering up their glaring errors.

RECESSION!

The current economic downturn has impacted different areas of the country in different ways.

But today's article at Columbia Conservative Examiner takes a look at how one Governor is holding steadfast against a federal government that wishes to mandate how funds are spent in his state.

It's a classic battle that pits a Governor against not only the Feds but his state legislature as well!

Take a look, and pass it along. Thank-you for your support!

Barefaced Lies About Current Unemployment Rate

The mainstream media is reporting that the latest unemployment figures have reached historic proportions, particularly in California, where the jobless rate stands at 11%, supposedly 'the highest ever.'

That statement is blatantly FALSE.

Read my column at Columbia Conservative Examiner to get the real story.

Here's a clue. During the Great Depression of the 1930s, the unemployment rate went to 25% nationwide. So how can a jobless rate of 11% be deemed 'the highest ever?'

More mainstream media, partisan BULLssshhttt, that's how.

Why We Are Not Governed by Majority Rule

'Majority rule,' the simplest definition of 'democracy,' is actually dangerous!

It's a good thing we are not governed by majority rule in this country, although many citizens erroneously believe we are.

This is the subject I examine today in my column at Columbia Conservative Examiner.

Thank-you in advance for clicking on my daily links to the columns I write at the Examiner. You have been very helpful, and I deeply appreciate your reading the articles and passing them along.

Napolitano 'Clarifies' But the Die is Cast

Despite Janet Napolitano's 'clarification' on Fox News that she didn't mean to target veterans in that libelous and slanderous report issued by Homeland Security, she actually did very little to assuage the fears of growing numbers of Americans that the Obama administration exhibits a distinct disdain for at least half the population.

This is the subject of my article today at Columbia Conservative Examiner.

ALERT! National Guard Told to Consider Tea Party Protesters 'Terrorists'

First, it was Missouri Law Enforcement.

Then, it was a Homeland Security document.

Now, we find that the Obama administration instructed the Maryland National Guard to consider Tea Party protesters as 'potential terrorists,' particularly those who carry copies of the U.S. Constitution!

The Obama administration even referred to the Constitution as 'political paraphernalia!'

My dear readers, I do not wish to engage in meaningless rabble-rousing or sensationalism. That would be counter-productive. But what I am witnessing is one of the most frightening attacks on American liberty we have seen since the days of the Revolutionary War.

Read this complete report!

CALL HOMELAND SECURITY TO PROTEST!

Let's bombard the Department of Homeland Security with phone calls of protest over the 'Right Wing Extremist' report they issued, where they disparaged, insulted, and labeled veterans, gun owners, Constitutionalists, pro-lifers, and small government advocates as 'potential terrorists.'

Click here for the DHS homepage where you can find all of the pertinent phone numbers.

Remember, it is important to be respectful, focused, brief, and to the point. A great deal of damage can be done by those who call the Department and rant.

***SPECIAL LIBERTY ALERT***

This is a special Liberty Alert.

Barack Obama and his Department of Homeland Security have taken direct aim at the nation's conservatives in a scathing indictment of anyone who basically disagrees with the liberal agenda.

Under the guise of issuing an alert concerning 'rightwing terror groups,' DHS has in effect painted 70% of Americans as potential terrorists.

Be sure to carefully read this report provided by Michelle Malkin, which highlights the dangerous nature of this DHS report--which is a drastic departure from its past practices.

In addition, this special alert became the top-of-the-page headline on The Drudge Report today.

Further, Pamela Geller was one of the first to issue this alert when the story first broke over the weekend. Read it all.

My friends, Obama's war on the American people has begun. THIS IS NOT A DRILL.

Human Liberty Thrown Under the Bus

I hate to break it to you, but your friends, family, and co-workers who may be Socialist in their thinking are more than willing to sacrifice all of your rights--that's right, throw ALL of your liberties under the bus--in order to achieve their goals.

Take a look and let's celebrate this one major victory in an ongoing war against government corruption.

"Economics, Population, and Abortion"

Our guest blogger today is Rev. Kharma of Kharma Futures.This is a thought-provoking read that deserves your consideration.

Economics, Population, and Abortion
by Rev. Kharma

I have read many different articles over the last few years addressing economic trends. In the last year they have focused on the housing bubble and it’s relevance to our current economic crisis. Inflated housing prices spiraled out of control, and eventually collapsed which created a chain reaction throughout the economy of the US and the world. Often we are told that the economic problems we face will not settle out until the housing market rebounds. When we begin to buy houses again, at re-inflated prices the US economy will re-inflate and we will back at our old pace once more, spending money we don’t have.

This afternoon I opened my newest issue of First Things. It sat on my desk for several days, I have been apprehensive about reading it. The original editor and driving force, Fr. Richard Neuhaus died earlier this year. The journal has inspired and educated me for more than a decade since I read the first issue I encountered. His passing has made me wonder just who is capable of picking up the banner he so ably carried during his tenure.

In this issue there is an essay, dealing with economics and families. I have seen bits and pieces and hints about this, but Daniel Goldman had fleshed out and given life to the ideas as no one has ever done. He describes the theory that it is the distribution of young and old that has continued to refresh and renew our economy for generations. The young families have need of houses and all the accessories which would accompany that. The older members of our population have need of investment and growth of financial security. This has worked for generations, providing a continuous cycle of growth and expansion, opportunity and advantage for all concerned.

The demographics since the late 1960’s have begun to erode this model. Increasingly families are smaller, fewer children means fewer and smaller houses. As happens more and more often, there are single parent homes and homes with no children at all.

Make no mistake here, I am not, and never will criticize someone who has a small family, or even no children at all. Not everyone is cut out to raise a family.

The problem here is not the occasional small family or childless couple. The problem is a society that has devalued the family entirely. We have created a new ethos where having a family and raising children is not only removed from the primary role of a society, it is now frowned upon. Those who have a family are regarded as outlaws, and the green movement had demonized them. We are no longer sustaining our population. Societies are aging. We hear over and over that the US Social Security program will be bankrupt due to a lack of wage earners paying to support those receiving benefits. Virtually every Western nation is moving toward demographic extinction. In his article, Mr. Goldman displays a chart which shows the age of ‘Advanced Nations”. In 1965 the population aged older than 65 was approximately 10% of the general population. Those under age 4 made up about 8%. Projected for the year 2050, the trend shows a remarkable shift. Over aged 65 is projected to be more than 30%, while those under age 4 show less than 5%. Clearly this presents an unsustainable strain on the traditional economic cycle.

What is it that could account for this? Mr. Goldman’s article is not meant to address this.

However, as I read it a number kept presenting itself to my mind. I kept thinking of a number I have heard over and over. That number is in the range of 50 million.

That number is the estimated number of humans who would be current Americans had they not been aborted. Our culture of death has wiped out the hope of our generation.

All the economics lectures, and demographic analysis ever written cannot erase that fact. The Culture of Death that has enveloped our society has caused a devastating erosion to our ability to fund our own nation.

We can debate deficit spending, socialism, and capitalism, democrats and republicans in government, but we face a stark reality.

America is rapidly aging. We are aging as a nation because we have become essentially self-centered. The inconvenience of bearing and raising children has been alleviated by the simple answer of eliminating the children considered such a burden.

This is certainly one of a panoply of factors which include delaying marriage, reduced size of families, and many other fractured and altered family structures. However the fact remains, that had fifty million children not been murdered before they were born, we would be facing an entirely different demographic today. Perhaps individual wealth would not have grown so fast. Individual self fulfillment might not be such a sought after goal. We surely would not have a society which faces extinction simply because we are growing older and are not able to fund our expansion. One may debate the morality of the issue, and many do. The straight economics are simply numbers. We are dying, and we are not replacing our dying members. There are many ways to look at it, but there is simply no way to see it differently. We are paying the price of convenience. We are paying now for the elimination of a generation which we never permitted to exist.

The culture of death has created a wound in our society and the infection continues to weaken us. Combined with the unlimited demand for government payment for individual needs we are facing a bankrupt nation. America, we are paying for our choices, no matter if we decide to face it or ignore it.

We can look at so many of the dangers we face as a society and point back to the devaluation of live embodied by the abortion culture. The devaluation of life spreads and creates an ethos of total selfishness which infests and debases every aspect of our world today. The total self absorption, the movement toward the importance of the self and the instant gratification which has been exalted as the pinnacle of achievement all flow logically from the mindset which decides that one individuals life is more important than any other consideration. We are no longer looking toward self reliance, but rather to self preservation.

The nation which was formed with a minimal government to protect basic rights is now a nation which wants a strong government to provide everything at the expense of others. Instead of a generation willing to go to war to save the world, we have a generation which seems to want to beg the world to save them. Instead of raising children and providing for the future, we want to have the government raise and provide for us.

We have taken the dream of the founders and turned it on its ear. We have perverted the original republic and corrupted it to a democracy which feeds off its children instead of protecting them.

That cliff is getting closer and closer and the nation is sliding faster and faster into the abyss.
