SIT DOWN AND SHUT UP

SPECIAL POST

Here we are, bellyaching about what is going on in the Ukraine; here we are with out backs up, threatening Iran, Syria and North Korea to stay in line.  Well, just what are we going to do about it, and with what? 

We've already announced that we're decreasing the size of out military to the smallest size it has been since before World War II.  Never mind that our armies, our air forces, our marines, our navies have kept us secure in our homeland through countless threats to our national security; our illustrious leaders in the White House and the Congress have decided that we're going to try something new. 

Well, if Putin sends forces into Ukraine tomorrow, we're going to do the only thing we can; sit down and shut up.  We're going to watch it happen, and we'll watch as Georgia, Poland, Hungary, Czechoslovakia... as they all fall in the rebuilding of the Soviet Union.  What else can we do?  We'll watch when Iran nukes Israel and as the Middle East erupts in fires of Biblical proportions. 

The very fabric of our own society is broken.  We have a President who openly flaunts the law and a Congress that is beyond dysfunctional; yet, all we seem to be able to do is bellyache... even the press and media don't care to rise to the occasion.  If we, as disgruntled Americans, don't have the love of our country, the affection of freedom and justice, the yearning for democracy that we are willing to get off our butts and do something about it, then why should we bother to waste our breaths bellyaching?  

If that truly is the case with us, then we need to blindly follow our leaders; sit down and shut up. 

Illegitimi non carborundum.

That's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
