We Have Been There Before.................


And so it goes.... We Have Been Here Before
It was a time of economic panic.

The government had first caused a economic downturn and then meddled until the economy completely collapsed.
The people demanded change.

Along came a glib, smooth talking newcomer.

He had no governing experience to speak of,
but promised the change his people sought.

He also promised free health care, strict controls on guns
and a massive redistribution of wealth from the few rich to the many poor.

The people praised him, the press extolled him and vilified his opponent.

Children sang songs about him and university students chanted his name.

He was elected, and all the changes came to pass........ but not as most had expected.

Because it was Germany, in 1938.
If that scares you, it darn well should!

  6. Wow! That is frightening!! We were so disappointed when we woke up this morning and found out who won. I wasn't surprised, though, because the "sheeple" are such idiots in this country--dumbed down and comatose. The next four years are going to be the longest, most excrutiating this country has ever endured:( But, I was reading some Associated Press articles on the web this morning (and they are really liberal), and they are already attacking Mr. Obama--I was surprised and pleased:)

    I guess all we can do now is take care of our own and continue to pray and ask for God's help.
