REBORN AMERICAN: Continued

The annual saga of 9/11 continues, when we all pause to remember that horrible day in the history of our nation. Those of us who were in the know would pause to reflect, when the shock died down, that it was the pacifist stance of the Congress and the Clinton Administration which created the lax national security atmosphere where the enemy felt obliged to take advantage of the situation.

Here we are, eight years later. We’re reading terrorists their Miranda Rights. We’re providing free legal counsel to the terrorists who were captured or arrested in the aftermath of 9/11. We’re investigating the CIA agents who dealt with the terrorists after 9/11. We’ve made it illegal to profile terrorist suspects. We’ve got a President who wants Americans to contact the White House immediately if they suspect that their neighbors or co-workers might be spreading negative “untruths” about his Health Care package on their blogs.

We have a President who has said that the citizens who showed up at Town Hall meetings to protest his edicts are “political terrorists,” who had better "shut up and get out of the way." We have a media that hides and twists the truth. We have a Congress that turns a deaf ear to what America is saying, and we have Members of that Congress who refused to meet with their voters, some of which openly said that they don’t care what their constituents think.

I now believe, all things considered, that the terrorists of 9/11 were far less dangerous to this country than what is going on inside our country right now. They only killed 3,000. What is happening to our country with our existing leaders right now is killing our history, our entire democracy, and our future. The ugly, spiteful, spewing words of Jeremiah Wright reverberate in my mind, because they seem to have become the Mission Statement of the day: “God DAMN America!”

Let’s do something about it, before it’s too late. We can, and we must.

That’s MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
