Rising from the Liberal Squat
I was so pleased tonight to receive an email from my sister, Darcy, in Richfield, MN, USA. She told me about her latest foray into the volunteer fields and I was thrilled. She epitomizes much of what is happening to Americans lately and it gives me great hope for the future of this great nation. Check out http://www.operationiraqichildren.org/ and tell me what YOU think of it. I think it's one of the best kept secrets of the war on Islamic terror today...a secret because you don't hear about it on the alphabet media outlets at all...not that I've seen anyway. Americans volunteering for the future of a people that they only recently got introduced to but who they feel great compassion for. What is even more touching is that these folks are doing what no politician can do with government aid. They are giving a personal touch to the love that is shared between all freedom-loving peoples.
As I noted in an earlier entry, I had a very troubling time after returning to the States from Viet Nam where I spent 1968-69 as a young Marine sergeant. It was a time when I came of age but it was also a time when the Liberal Left in this country was in a heavy squat delivering the most pungent bovine scat imaginable. Their self-loathing was expressed in violent America-hating and resulted in immeasurable harm to those of us that had become lovers of liberty and justice and had volunteered to serve our country. We had learned it from a healthy study of our country's origins and had formed strong commitments to it and a love for it. We weren't ashamed, but many were. Michael Savage (http://www.homestead.com/prosites-prs/index.html) calls them "Red Diaper Doper Babies". They were primarily products of the parentage of communists of the 30s when this country struggled with the Great Depression's demands on capitalism to reform. Pure capitalism had to reform, but it certainly didn't have to go to the extremes of the Stalinists or Maoists to do it. We blended in a little socialism and fixed a few loopholes. Laissez Faire Capitalism was unrestrained opportunity for abuse and human nature being what it is, there were abuses. It's just a good thing that we didn't get a full-blown Soviet system out of it.
It is indeed time for us to rise up and wipe the bovine scat from ourselves and tack toward a new era of loving what America stood for at its inception...takes some education, but it would be worth every hour spent.
