Freedom?

Lucky me it is 3:20 am and I'm awake and boom after looking at Drudge Report I start thinking about Freedom. The way we perceive our reality changes as we get older. So does my sleep cycle but hey this tidbit is about FREEDOM. When I was young I use to think the US government and mankind as a whole was leaning toward the good. Let face it John Wayne was always right,the good guys wore white hats and the train never run over Pauline. Dudley Do-right always got his man. Now back to reality. A good TV show to get you in the mood might be "Life on Mars" which is about a cop from the early 21st century who some how gets tossed back to 1973 and you guessed it life in the good old USA was much different then it is today,today being 2008 when the show was made. One could argue and rightly so that many changes in our way of life have occurred since 2008. Eight long years under Obama has made that change and not for the good. Now back to Freedom the main theme. Do you really believe that you have more freedom today in the good old USA or would you like to turn back the clock to say 1973 and have that kind of freedom without Gerald Ford and Nixon of course. Put Reagan in the White House if we are going to turn back the clock hell even 4 years of Goldwater might be fun? I could go on and on but the theme is freedom again and do you believe we as citizens of the good old USA have more or less these days in the year 2017. Trump is in the White House which I believe is a good thing. But every time you turn around he is being attacked by the LEFT,RINO and wanna be lefty GOP members,the media with a few exceptions and the Fifth Column that has grown on our American soil over the past couple of decades. The Fifth Column is really the problem they do include many card carrying members of both major parties and snowflakes,anarchist,commies you know the bunch of humans who want to tell you how to live your life. So long story short my gut tells me these days that this internal and political turmoil will come to a head and probably real soon. Some say civil war? I hate to say it but that Civil War on US soil is probably the direction it will take. I even think that the USA splitting up into two or more different new countries is a possibility. If so what will our children and in my case grandchildren live under in those days? Freedom and liberty like we thought we had or chains and regulations just like Orwell predicted in his novel 1984? That is the question and at this time I have no answers. That my friends is probably what wakes me up at 3am these days. Final thought I believe that the Bill of Rights as it was written is the best answer for Freedom and Liberty. It is still the law but many will tell you it needs to be written differently. You do not need a Philadelphia lawyer or any other to understand the Bill of Rights, We the people just need to enforce these RIGHTS all ten of the original and know that in 1776 people believe in those kind of rights and in 2017 or even 2217 the Bill of Rights as the cornerstone of our Republic is the "right" direction.
