I’ll Take Freedom
Is The Cost of Freedom Too High? Totalitarian Socialism is Much Cheaper!
by J. D. Longstreet
Just a snippet:
So, you want to leave win the war, any war? Use the nuke arsenal. It would be quick, efficient, very effective, and there would be no question as to the victor. Leave the offending country a radioactive pile of debris for the next few thousand years.
We have the material, the methods, and the means to take out any country causing trouble for us in the world. I must tell you, those atomic weapons, as costly as they are, would be more cost efficient than placing a couple hundred thousand troops on the ground, in a troublesome region, and supporting those troops while forcing them to fight handicapped. And that is what we are doing, currently!
Hey, I’m tired of all the bellyaching, all the bitching, and moaning, coming from the very people who could not screw up enough courage to defend their own shadow. I’m tired of good, loyal, American men and women spilling their blood and laying down their lives for a whole segment of our society who have no respect, nor love for the country nor their fellow Americans. I’m tired of the useful, idiots our enemies find, in abundance, in the governing bodies in Washington.
What you will, my fellow Americans, but we have become two nations, again, much as this country split in the 1860’s. I’m not talking about a North/South split… I’m talking about a “Love America/Hate America” split. The last presidential election did nothing to bring us closer together. In fact, it appears Obama’s election has driven us even farther apart. We are hopelessly split apart and the Union, though it appears as one on paper, in reality… it no longer exists. Neither side has any interest, at all, in rejoining the other.
The “Hate America” and the “Blame America First” crowds (one and the same) have sapped this country of its will to survive. Any medical practitioner will tell you that when the will to survive is gone… all is lost.

Not all change is good change. The change we are seeing is definitely NOT a good change. Over the past few decades, we have been pushed into a place our founders never envisioned. Over the past 10 months, we have been on a speeding freight train heading into a stone mountain. End of the line.
Is that really what we want? For our children? For out country? I love America. I love the idea of America. I was brought up on God and country, and family first, and foremost. Social programs don’t solve the worlds problems, they create more and bigger problems. Protesting wars doesn’t stop the war, it prolongs the death and destruction.
American is not to blame for the world’s ills. The world has managed to screw itself up quite nicely all on it’s on, caving to the PC, or allowing murderous thugs to rule, or turning a blind eye to mass murder, all across the globe. And yet, there are those, right here in the country who actually praise such actions? 60, or even 50 years ago, those people would have been shunned. Today, they are hailed as heroes? I’m sorry, but no overpaid actor is a hero, of any sort. Only those who stand up against tyranny deserve to be called heroes.
As horrible as it is, I agree with Mr Longstreet. Use the weapons we have, and put an end to the whole mess. At least allow our brave young men and women the means to do their job, and win. We were always a nation of winners. Now, we’re just a nation of whiners. I don’t like that much at all. And neither should you.
