TAPS WASTED
How sadly today must be viewed by all those souls whose blood was spent for the ideals of our country. Thousands of those who believed in standing up for a great society and fighting to give the rights of freedom to others around the world. How could they condone the fiasco and hypocrisy that is being played out in our body politic when the cause of good is spent on the theatrics of political gamesmanship? How is it that the practice of falsehoods, inuendo and word-twists has put us in the position of moving backwards in time towards those other times that we pitted brother against brother. I believe that history will see the last three years as some of our darkest hours in terms of how our elected representatives have abandoned their purpose for country in favor of party first. How our higher educational system has failed to educate in favor of indoctrination which is seeping through osmosis into all of educational strata. Finally, how the Press and news reporting is now a partisan facilitator rather than reporting fact. They now actively change wording and meanings in order to give one party advantages over the other.
I wonder just how many of those fallen for just cause would view the travesty of the last three years in which we have watched our congress pursue the folly of attempting to negate our last election by any means possible. This is being played out much the same as a sporting event pitting one side against the other when the purpose of our Declaration of Independence and the Constitution were established to give every corner of our country a voice. We are a Federalist Republic, not a true democracy where the most in numbers dictates. The founders did everything they could that would prevent governance by any small but powerful group or ideology. It makes no sense to claim the higher moral position while doing whatever it takes to chalk up a win for a political party instead of working toward the success of our country and our society.
Why is it that while our President is overseas working for our country, that we have a faction of politic working toward wounding and weakening his standing as a international leader. Why are they trying to force him out of office when our population has the opportunity to exert their freedom of choice in our electoral process. Why have they wasted valuable time in chasing the past instead of fighting for the betterment of our country. Why have they wasted the time they have had to improve our international trade agreements, our national safety, and our national economy. They have wasted our time, our money and the “TAPS PLAYED FOR OUR FALLEN WARRIORS”
