Nomad99 448 Posted May 2 On average, empires survive 250 years.....we are coming up on 248. Signs are there. We will beat the average but the writing is on the wall. It's not unusual for the decline to be self inflicted but ours will become a case study. Future generations will ask their teachers if they are telling the truth......because the truth will be so unbelievable that it deserves questioning. Their faces will show the shocked disbelief but the facts will speak for themselves. It will tell like a bad joke but it will be fact. History will remember us as fools. The morals, intestinal fortitude, good will, foresight, unity & patriotism of our Forefathers will have been wasted. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

weepaws 2,499 Posted May 2 Forefathers believed in a Godly society, we have taken God Away, And people throw up their hands and ask, what happen. It’s a very easy one to answer, so things that are forefathers stood for have already gone unappreciated and have been pushed aside , have been mocked, and forgotten, people now trust in their votes to change things, oh those silly people. Stop trusting in man, put your trust in the Lord God Almighty. Amen. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hardcore troubadour 12,884 Posted May 3 I wish I could go back in time and tell Eisenhower to put FDR in the stockade and send our boys back here. Europe wasn’t worth saving and we lost a lot of good bloodlines over there. Also nuke Japan as soon as you can. The Nazis could never hold europe and neither would have the Russians been able to. Saving europe for Morracans, Libyans and Algerians. Brilliant. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
