Are you nervous about our future?

I got this in my patriotpost newsletter, I hope it helps some of you.




"We should never despair, our Situation before has been unpromising and has changed for the better, so I trust, it will again. If new difficulties arise, we must only put forth new Exertions and proportion our Efforts to the exigency of the times." --George Washington

PUBLISHER'S NOTE
Fellow Patriots,

Tuesday, 4 November 2008, is a date which will live in infamy. While most presidential elections are followed with calls for unity by both candidates, Barack Obama issued no such call in his speech last night, with the possible exception of his observation, "I may not have won your vote tonight, but ... I will be your president, too."

Of course, none was expected -- liberals have elected a Socialist with deep ties to cultural and ethnocentric radicalism, and his executive and legislative agenda poses a greater threat to American liberty than that of any president in the history of our great republic.

Obama has twice taken an oath to "support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic" and to "bear true faith and allegiance to the same." He has never honored that oath, and, based on his policy proposals and objectives, he has no intention to honor it after again reciting that oath on 20 January 2009. Obama seeks to, in his own words, "break free from the essential constraints that were placed by the Founding Fathers in the Constitution."

For that reason, this morning, the symbol of our national heritage of liberty, the American flag atop the 35-foot mast at our editorial offices, was respectfully lowered, inverted, and raised to full mast as a sign of national distress. It will remain inverted until next Tuesday, when we right it in honor of Veterans Day.

Today, at least 55,805,197 Americans are concerned for the future of our nation's great tradition of liberty. Some 63,007,791 Americans have been lulled, under the aegis of "hope and change," into a state of what is best described as "cult worship" and all its attendant deception.

One of our editors, a Marine now working in the private sector, summed up our circumstances with this situation report. It aptly captured the sentiments around our office: "It's been tough, fellow Patriots; tough to stomach the idea that more than half of my fellow citizens who vote, have booted a genuine American hero to the curb for a rudderless charlatan. What a sad indictment on our citizenry that some are so eager to overlook his myriad flaws -- his radical roots, his extreme liberalism, his utter lack of experience or achievement. Barack Obama is the antithesis of King's dream: He's a man judged by the color of his skin rather than the content of his character. If it's God's will that Barack Obama is our next president, then so be it. We Patriots will pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and wade back to the war front, intent on liberty or death."

This battle is lost, but the war is not. Let's roll.

Read Joshua 1:5 and Daniel 6:26.

The future is dark. But God will protect His people.

Great article.

And yes, I am VERY worried about our futures.

[Char]

Yes, I even have a sort of 'sick' feeling... not sure, but, almost a fear.

[speedygirl]

No, I am not nervous nor fearful. I am hopeful. I am tired of living my life in a panic over the last several years due to things that were not in my control. The best I can do is to make choices that that are best for our family and pray that life takes a good path.

[Char]

I have not had many fears since 2001... At least Bushy let the world know that the USA would no longer put up with any BS... I can guarantee you, that fear they had of Bush has kept us safer, to some degree, since 9/11/01

[DBackFan]

I just had to give it up to a higher power. I am not afraid but I don't think things are going to be very easy for awhile.

[LuvBigRip]

I have also handed my fears over to a higher power, but that inner feeling I get is to prepare for the worst. I will trust that inner voice, it has served me well over the years.

I don't things things are going to be very easy for awhile either and they might get worse before they get any better. But I think it would have been that way no matter which man got elected. (I didn't vote for either of them)

[Anig2u]

I think a lot of people's fears are coming from the unknown, and also because of the downward spiral we have been in for a while now. There is only one thing to fear and that is your God...so say some.

I posted this reply in the gun thread but it applies here as well with a bit of tweaking.
"We've been stocking up on ammo,handguns and rifles (both for hunting and home defense)and such for the last 6 months. I also have extra veggie seeds I figure since food prices are sure to rise handily it wouldn't hurt to be ready. I also bought a pressure cooker, jars and lids for canning and have a vacuum sealer and dehydrator to preserve food. We should be ok for the next 4 years. Hopefully by then people will see what he's done/ doing and we can try again." I also am moving the 401K investments(such as they are) to safer investments for a while.
