The degeneration of the Swedish state has been the subject of repeated post at the Gates of Vienna, particularly by the blogger Fjordman. As Sweden has gone down the road to socialism, they have been lulled into complacence by the promise of cradle to grave welfare and most especially of unlimited, unrestrained sexual license. The State Church of Sweden (Lutheran) has been totally compromised and has bought into this hook, line, and sinker.
Laurel, I think the quote you were making is more along the lines of “If you don’t stand for something, you will fall for anything.”
This is precisely what is happening to the USA right now, because we are being told that we must not stand for anything. It is no longer acceptable to stand for traditional American values and American rights. They are deemed racist and discriminatory, and it is just not politically correct to stand for what our country has always stood for. This is precisely Obama’s message. He will CHANGE America, he will make it into a totally different country, one where you and I have no place at all. The problem is, John McCain will not do much differently. We are truly stuck between a rock and a hard place.
