Obituary of the American way of Life as sent to me in an email

I beg you please pay attention to what is happening.
We live in a country that is the best the world has ever seen.
It will soon be gone if we are Apathetic to what they (The ruling class) are doing.
We need to pay attention to details and little things.


Subject: Obituary-very interesting
In 1887 Alexander Tyler, a Scottish history professor at the University of Edinborough, 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.

If you are as concerned as I am please pass this along. 

My reply follows but I'd like everyone to weight in, cuz I'm so tiredof seeing Obama villanized. What are you going to do with all the illegal workers anyway? yes give them amnesty, let them pay taxes, cuz now they are living for free. We pay the Mediaid, the bills, they pay nothing. Time for someone to do SOMETHING. Amnesty is not a bad idea, they are gonna live here anyway and have for over 50 years. I like that plan. Ok here is my reply to the above email. BTW Iam not talking to anyone in particular, just MY opinion, so please weigh in.

This is very interesting about the democracy and apathy and all. As far as Obama and McCain go,I could not disagree more. McCain would have kept us in bondage like GW Bush did, the illegal war costing us well over 3 TRILLION dollars so far. Again I say illegal war. We had no right to invade Iraq, there were no WMD's per NATO and none have been found as of yet 10 years later.

He should have concentrated on Bin Laden. Obama got him. So with the right wing supporting and twisting the facts, if McCain had that much more voting stuff, he would have won the presidency. The middle class pays for this country. The rich, McCains people as well as the Republican party's people pay next to nothing and they can afford it. We can't. I owed over $12,000 to the IRS this year after I already paid from my paycheck. So bullshit on the Obama/McCain comparisons. McCain would have everything as GW Bush had set it up. Did we need 4 more years of that? Talk about apathy, look at the Katrina incident.

At least Obama is trying. Yep, he got most the black vote,also the middle class vote. McCain got the rich vote and some middle class. Now would you actually want Sarah Palin in that VP position? She is an idiot. Her father is school teacher and she says and I quote "Oh Paul Revere, yeah, he went to, to, to tell the English they could not have our arms." Really Sarah? Your dad must be so proud. What a moron. She thinks Africa is a country. Seriously a moron. she cannot take criticism at all. She must be praised all the time. She has proved that over and over. She would be in line to be President if something were to happen to McCain. No way. Too stupid, too greedy and too much of a media whore.

I totally agree with the democracy cycle tho. I think we are in apathy now. Obama did not put us there. If you believe everything the right wing fanatics tell us about him, he is the Anti christ, the doom of America, etc. Nobody can undo what GW Bush did to this country in a 2 term presidency. it is going to take at least 6 presidents in a 2 term presidency to fix this country after Bush. he destroyed us, sold us to China and cared naught for the middle class.

Obama has had to make concessions to the primarily Republican house and senate like extending the tax breaks for the wealthy and signing the Patriot Act for another 4 years just to get his legislation passed. Political blackmail. Sad. The wealthy just want to be wealthier and the middle class is paying the bill. Look at property taxes, other taxes just to keep us afloat.  


So Blogger followers, do you agree Obama has screwed this country more than Bush or any of the hype the right wing extremists are spouting or do you think he is trying with a very hard position of having a Republican House and Senate? We went from "Yes We CAN" to "Not a CHANCE Mr. President." with the last election of primarily Republicans. 

Look at Donald Trump. Really dude? Are you serious? YAY you got the long form Birth Certificate that Hawaiian law forbids because the state dept had already checked his eligibility. You are a moron Chump, but a very wealthy one. Way to go. But you have money to burn, so the time it took away from government things happening was well spent huh? Now, like Obama says, let's concentrate on important matters of state and forget the Birth Certificate bullshit. Like Obama said to you during the White House Correspondence Dinner. What REALLY happened to Biggie & Tupac? WAS the Moon Landing Faked? What's REALLY in Area 51? those are really important, just like that birth certificate was. 

Would you have demanded McCains Birth Certificate? He was born in Panama. A territory at the time, the Canal zone, as was Hawaii.

So Chump, you arrogant bastard, spend some money on finding out those important matters the president asked you about.

So check out this link if you have not seen it yet. Too funny and we know now the Pres has a sense of humor. The Chump however does not. 

So here is my post for the day, let me know what you think. I'm really interested and all opinions are as valid as mine.
