What Have We Here?

As we transition from one month into another month, it is only fitting that I mention other transitions that are taking place in this country...  and, I could have said this great country of ours but I no longer see it as great.  Yes, it is the best place to live and offers the freedoms that other countries do not, but that does not make it great.  LEADERSHIP makes it great...  and right now we have piss poor leadership because we are more interested in playing party politics than doing what is right for the American people.

In other words, what is right for the American people is the following:

• A strong and growing economy
• A strong and powerful military
• Leagal Immigration Only
• Plenty of available jobs
• Low sustainable inflation
• An elite system of education
• Protecting our resources
• Protecting our intellectual property
• Protecting our technology
• Adhering to the rule of law

While this list may seem to be unattainable...  it once was the soul and heartbeat of this country.  It was the bedrock of this country...  our foundation on which we built GREATNESS and became the LEADER or ROLE MODEL for the rest of the world.  That is no longer the case.

We are just seen as a wealthy arrogant nation who wants to tell everybody else what to do and how to do it and when to do it...  

We no longer respect ourselves, so why should we respect others?

1. Our country is in crisis
2. Our country is in turmoil
3. Our country is seriously divided
4. Our leaders perpetuate this division

My question is WHY?
