The recent successful terrorist attack on the US destroyer Cole is just the tip of the tip of the iceberg of derelict that the Clinton/Gore administration will leave for the next captain of this ship of state to navigate around. The only reason the public even knows about it is that this time the breach in security was so great it resulted in the loss of American sailors. These twin bastards of decent have so decimated the hardware and the attitudes of our Armed Services that a rubber raft, not that different from the blow up swimming pools we just packed away for the winter, a rubber raft was able to kill 17 American sailors and practically sink a $1,000,000,000 US Navy warship!
Four years ago when I read Bob Woodward's The Agenda, about the 1992 Clinton Campaign, and followed that reading up with Hell of a Ride, by John Podhoretz I was saddened by these facts. All the while during the 1992 Presidential campaign, the George Bush camp was consumed by one question, "Can we actually provide what we promise?" Conversely the Clinton campaign was also absolutely concerned with one question, "If we say it, will the voters believe it?" So, dear readers, you must remember that because the major media has an infallible memory when it concerns Republicans, like his father, George W. Bush is handicapped by the awful requirement to be truthful. Conversely, an eternally stiff Albert Gore Jr., given the chance, would blithely inform Saint Peter that he has "No overriding legal authority" concerning His oversight of the Pearly Gates!
This Fall, 30 million will play 'Fantasy Sports,' but less than 20 million American's will cast their ballots in the up coming Presidential Election. Under the banner of the National Education Association, the teacher's union has carried out it's mandate well.
They've greatly expanded union membership and equipped most of our children with the firm knowledge that the United States is an evil, polluting, consuming, cancer on the gray flecked temple of Mother Earth. They've graduated the last thirty years of students and equipped them with a the codified morals of Hugh Heffner, reinforced with fifty definitions of what is to be considered normal. They have crowned socialist FDR as the greatest President of all, the United Nations as the future world government and cultivated their pupils to show more pride in their "country of origin" than in the greatest, fairest, and most generous nation ever.
Why should they vote? Utilizing their knowledge of morals (everything is okay) history (the United States is a melanoma on the crust of the planet) politics (socialism benefits everyone) it seems to them everything will take care of itself.
Our children now in school, unless there are massive shifts in the focus of public education, will be the last generation of American's to enjoy the freedoms our Founders prescribed, the freedoms for which thousands of Americans died for, the Twentieth Century freedoms which enabled good to defeat the worldwide evil of Hitler and Lenin.
