Not since the disintegration of the Soviet Union in 1991, and prior to that the fall of France in 1940, has there been so swift an erosion of the world influence of a Great Power as we are witnessing with the United States.
The Soviet Union crumbled jurisdictionally: In 1990-1991, one country became the 16 formerly constituent republics of that country, and except perhaps for Belarus, none of them show much disposition to return to the Russian fold into which they had been gathered, almost always by brute force, over the previous 300 years.
The cataclysmic decline of France, of course, was the result of being overrun by Nazi Germany in 1940. And while it took until the return of de Gaulle in 1958 and the establishment of the Fifth Republic with durable governments and a serious currency, and the end of the Algerian War in 1962, and the addition of some other cubits to France’s stature, the largest step in its resurrection was accomplished by the Allied armies sweeping the Germans out of France in 1944.
What we are witnessing now in the United States, by contrast, is just the backwash of inept policy-making in Washington, and nothing that could not eventually be put right. But for this administration to redeem its credibility now would require a change of direction and method so radical it would be the national equivalent of the comeback of Lazarus: a miraculous revolution in the condition of an individual (President Obama), and a comparable metamorphosis (or a comprehensive replacement) of the astonishingly implausible claque around him.

The fall of France was attributable to the work of a genius, Erich von Manstein-Lewinski . The fall of America is attributable to the imbecile, B.H Obama.

The problem isn't that the US is collapsing. It is that we have a crowd of degenerates running our govt'. Like with Carter, when the filth is cleared out and common sense begins to take hold again, we will be in good shape again.

As much contempt as I have for Obummer,that's total BullBush. This really started with that fool Jim-mah Carter,and with the exception of Reagan it has been nothing but one treasonous clown after another ever since.
Obummer is merely the most recent incompetent spokescritter for the globalist internationalist bankers pushing their dream of a new feudal system under their thumbs.
