The die is cast

We are moving toward a dictatorship-type of government. Obama is enacting controls that are beyond what other Presidents have enacted (i.e. climate change executive order) and I have some serious doubts as to whether we will have another Presidential election. Whether we do or do not is irrelevant, the GOP mainstream is on board with what Obama is doing. Tea Party and Libertarian politicians have been soundly discredited and put into their place (low on the totem pole or not on it at all) by Mainstream. Mainstream (both parties) have us going in exactly the direction they want us to go. Romney and McCain (opponents of Obama in the last two elections) would have done a few things differently but the direction would have been the same.

While I don't agree with it, I would rather comply and see how it turns out than try to change it at this point. Those committed to changing direction have come out looking foolish. Resistance is futile. My personal freedom comes from within, comes from God and no laws or edicts will change that so it is well with my soul and I hope that all of you find a way to adjust to the New World Order or whatever the whole thing is eventually called.

However, I no longer wish to identify myself with the Republican Party. I do not identify with the Tea Party or Libertarians and certainly not the Democratic Party. I'm not a "registered Independent" either. None of the existing parties at this point speak for me, so I am a moderate conservative with no party affiliation. I will go along for the ride commenting occasionally. It's for the best. That said, I have even less tolerance for abject stupidity, so take that any way you wish.

Have we walked away from our Constitution?
Are we about to do that?

I've never called myself a Republican or any of the rest (especially Dem!). I'm also very conservative, so of course i tend to vote any was but Democrat. I think many have gotten to the point with both parties that they want to disassociate themselves with either one. I'm sure there are some Dems that aren't completely up Obama's butt, but they're hard to find.

I also have thought about the next election.....if there really will be one. I think nothing surprises me anymore when it comes to what our government will do. I really think at least something really big will happen just before the election, and that will either guarantee a Dem will again be President, or......no election at all. I pray God has mercy on us.....

I signed on to be a Republican in 2005 when I moved to OK. There is a closed primary here and I thought I would want to vote in the primary elections. I do want to do that, but it's not worth it.

I am personally VERY conservative. But I think the country should be governed a little more toward the middle than where I sit in my person life.

I haven't seen any Dems that aren't completely up Obama's butt. I'm sure there's one somewhere.

I think we've been sold out by both sides. Not sure how this is going to turn out but it's not looking good. I know who is in control......and so do you......... so though I don't understand, I know all will be well.....somewhere, sometime, some place.

I wanted to comment on this second half of your post. It's hard to believe that we can even entertain the idea that there may not be another election, but I think things are being set up now by executive order and other laws (maybe some things hidden in Obamacare, I don't know) to make it "legal" enough that nobody can really stop it once the decision is made to make it happen.

Several years ago there was talk of civil unrest that would be necessary and civil unrest seems more likely with each passing day. I agree with you that the "October Surprise" in 2016 may be particularly nasty and could result in a change that is huge and unexpected.

I pray daily for God's mercy. I don't even ask for blessing anymore........ we're past deserving that. But we need God's mercy in a huge way. I also realize that what's coming down may be the way it's supposed to be........in the Greater Plan.

Your last sentence is the big thing....we know whatever happens is all in His plans.
