Could it all be a bad dream or a nightmare?  Is it my imagination or have we lost our minds?  

It’s surreal. It’s just not believable. A grand absurdity. A great deception. A delusion of momentous proportions.

Based on preposterous notions and on ideas whose time should never have come - Simplicity grossly distorted and complicated. Insanity passed off as logic. Grandiose schemes built on falsehoods with the morality of Ponzi and Madoff.

Evil described as virtue. Ignorance pawned off as wisdom. Destruction and impoverishment in the name of humanitarianism.

Violence the tool of change. Preventive wars used as a road to peace. Tolerance delivered by government guns. Reactionary views in the guise of progress.

An empire replacing the republic. Slavery sold as liberty. Excellence and virtue traded for mediocracy. Socialism to save capitalism.

A government out of control. Unrestrained by the Constitution, the rule of law or morality. Bickering over petty politics as we enter into chaos.

The philosophy that destroys us is not even defined. We have broken from reality – a psychotic nation.

Ignorance, with a pretense of knowledge, replacing wisdom. Money does not grow on trees nor does prosperity come from a government printing press or escalating deficits.

We are now in the midst of unlimited spending of the peoples’ money. Exorbitant taxation. Deficits of trillions of dollars spent on a failed welfare-warfare system. An epidemic of cronyism. Unlimited supplies of paper money equated with wealth. A central bank that deliberately destroys the value of the currency, in secrecy, without restraint, without nary a whimper.

Yet cheered on by the pseudo-capitalists of Wall Street, the military-industrial complex and Detroit, we police our world empire with troops on 700 bases and in 130 countries around the world.

A dangerous war now spreads throughout the Middle East and Central Asia. Thousands of innocent people being killed as we become known as the torturers of the 21st century.

We assume that by keeping the already known torture pictures from the public’s eye, we will be remembered only as a generous and good people. If our enemies want to attack us only because we are free and rich, proof of torture would be irrelevant.

The sad part of all this is that we have forgotten what made America great, good and prosperous. We need to quickly refresh our memories and once again reinvigorate our love, understanding and confidence in liberty.

The status quo cannot be maintained considering the current conditions. Violence and lost liberty will result without some revolutionary thinking. We must escape from the madness of crowds now gathering.

The good news is the reversal is achievable through peaceful and intellectual means and fortunately the number of those who care are growing exponentially.

Of course it could all be a bad dream, a nightmare and that I’m seriously mistaken, overreacting and my worries are unfounded. I hope so.

But just in case, we ought to prepare ourselves for revolutionary changes in the not too distant future.

A bit too much sensationalism, but I would have to agree with what he's saying. Hear hear!

The problem was not due to rampant capitalism.
it was leftard actions and lack of genuine capitalism that was any problem.

Ahhh, if only Obama had delivered that speech. If only Obama was a republican candidate.
It's such a pity that Ron Paul's version of honest capitalism didn't quite gain enough support. Now there's a man that you could trust.

helian - fanny mae and freddy mac are both US govt run organistaions.

there is NO way ANY privately run company would lend money to people who could not pay it back.
