    You may not turn off that road but your plans will fail MISERABLY in the end ! Your world of Communism will never suceed because ONLY the power and word of God Himself will prevail !

    That is clearly the path western Europe followed with the US only about 10 to 20 years behind. We watched it collapse the USSR, we are watching it fail in Europe right now, will we be smart enough to get off that road to failure in time?

    Nixon may have failed as president, but he was an expert in foreign affairs. He noted Gorby to be a dedicated communist trying to find a way to make it work.

    It was Wilson's dream. He got this crap started. He has to be the worst, or at least tied for the worst, president in our history because of the path he set us on. His only redeeming feature is that he probably did not know better. Now there is no excuse for what the left is doing. They know that their agenda is destructive and bad for the country but that destruction is the source of their power. That is all that matters to them. They just want the power and to hell with the rest of us.
