Jan 2013

I said after he was elected the first time and I will say it again; If Obama fails, if these forces of darkness and hate manage to defeat him, that will signal the beginning of end of this nation.

I know it sounds drastic to say that but there is a crisis in this nation that has been building for many years as right wing extremism and hate have been growing like a cancer.

That cancer has focused on Obama and if it can succeed with its disregard for the truth, its appeals to fear and bigotry, its constant obstructionism, it's putting party over country and it's divisions and hate and sense of self pity, then I just dont see how we can continue as a nation..We will be two different peoples with drastically different values living in the same land area..a true house divided..
