Not as long as we keep the Second Amendment, without which we have no hope of keeping the remainder.
The reality, and one thing political leaders can count on, is that those who have lost a freedom previously granted to their forefathers, but lost to their generation before they were born, too young to know, or through ignorance, have little chance to ever fight successfully to regain it.
Long live Texas ... and Merle Haggard.
THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS CURRENTLY SHUT DOWN! Id say things are looking up!
Anyone under 55 has not lived [adult] during good times.
LOL this is called the "pig in shit" syndrome. Look at those pigs living in mud and a barn yard full of shit, wow, hey, Mr Pig, how would like to come out here where its nice and dry and clean. 'I am happy here why would I want to come out there were its dry and there is not shit to wallow in.'I beg to differ. I think life is what you make it. Everyone thinks their turd stinks the worst. I made my mind up early to enjoy my ride through this life, and for the mist part I have.
Every generation can lay claim to bad times and good. The key is that folks need to recognize a messed up situation and do something about it. I like what the Tea Party is doing, but there have been times I liked some things the Dems did (though nothing lately comes to mind).
How about that. My glass is still half full.

Is this bad? Well not really. Its how POWs survive and many folks in between as they face the challenges presented.
However when a govt uses it then its wrong: The govt has no desire to really lower the unemployment rate, Obama is establishing the new normal. Do this long enough and people will adapt to living in shit and think its great...
