I'm going to return to politics in this post and as I often do I'm adding a disclaimer of sorts at the beginning. Politics cannot get us out of the mess we are in! The damage done to us is irreversible... as I have written a number of times. The America of the textbooks of our youth is no more. God's judgement upon us is sealed. What is not known is the extent of that judgement. Surely His manifold mercies are there to be given but those mercies concern an America after it has faced the wrath of its creator. These comments may shock a new reader but I have expressed this feeling for quite some time. Our national defense as it pertains to vigilance has been decimated by this current president, and our enemies are now enabled and motivated as their window of opportunity slowly closes. Simply put, there are too many Americans with no discernment whatsoever to overcome our troubles.
These thoughts do not endear me to fellow conservatives for they think that I am defeatist and have essentially given up. That doesn't bother me at all because I know the problems ahead and they are so enormous that criticisms will be gone from the memory when the judgements begin to unfold. Yes, I say 'begin to unfold,' for this future societal earthquake is still at this time but a rumble miles underground. Nothing short of a national repentance will save us....nothing.
In my younger days I enjoyed CYO (Catholic Youth Organization) softball and we had a pretty good team, in fact a real good team. Now fall came and some of the players were determined to form a basketball team also. I wasn't a part of this because my college semester had started. I do remember their first and only game though, and our top scorers. The first and second half scores were identical....40 to 2. They had lost 80 to 4!. Tom and Dave were our top scorers with two points each. Now I am here to tell you, had I been on that team it would have been at least 80 to 6! And I can tell you something else, as the minutes of that game expired I would have been diving at balls.
We are not to quit this nation that so many gave the full measure of sacrifice for. We failed to be vigilant for a long time and are responsible for what has happened....I've written that often.....but they get no more points.
Having said this....here is what we are looking at on the political scene: We came out of our slumber years ago and have been forced to watch and listen to the most vile distortions of truth and what America is supposed to have been that one could stand. It has been a nightmare as we watched a Marxist schmooze his way into the White House and taking further advantage of a mortally uninformed public, proceeded to dismantle the foundations of our republic. The Democrats can claim insanity, I'll sign on to that diagnosis, but the Republican elites have no such crutch. They are the true culprits through their gross inaction and deception which continues to this day!
Then along came a man named Trump and he gave us a voice. That voice shook the poles (polls) of their big tent and sent the Democrats scurrying into the forest like the disoriented zombies that they are. Remember this though friends......for politicians can change quicker than Hillary can change her Mao pantsuits......it was the trumpet sound that reverberated across this nation and not necessarily the name Trump.
