    Where Did America Go And Who Took It?

    Anyway, I had a call in the local shopping mall yesterday. It happened to be in the Best Buy store. Anyway, the patient, that was there spending my tax money decided to have a grand mal seizure, but this is all besides the point. What I did notice was the amount of buying going on. Tons of high end, high tech devices. After the call I told my partner, who is in her late 20's, about "Pancakes for Breakfast". It was a book that I used to read as a child. From what I remember this family goes to Grandma's house for a few days for Christmas. All the kids could think of was Grandma's pancakes. Day after day goes buy and no pancakes. Finally, on the last day of their visit Grandma made pancakes, and the kids were overjoyed. My partner thought it was crazy that anyone would wish for pancakes. Norman Rockwell's America is dead. Too bad as I think it was a better one.
    When dealing with liberals, always attribute to malice what would ordinarily be attributed to incompetence.

    America died in 2008. But it was on life support for a long time before that.

    I prefer waffles myself.

    Stu, good thread regardless of how truthfully sad it is. What happened to our country? The change has been gradual over the recent years as we change from a democracy to a socialist state, all without a bullet being fired. Unfortunately or fortunately depending on your view we are seeing the beginning of armed confrontation. The "Occupy" movement is the beginning and gives dissidents a platform to act as a magnet to draw those who don't work, don't like democracy and don't like those of us who do work or who have worked. I believe they call themselves the 99%ers which comes down to the haves and the have nots. Those that don't work and don't have want what those who have worked and do have and sooner rather than later will attempt to take it by force. You say this sounds impossible, stock up on ammo and stand by.
