Who Are We and What Have We Become?

These words are from sitting U. S. Rep. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.), a
fellow who has a time when he “forgets” he is an American, that he is America’s “unofficial goodwill ambassador”
to the Middle East.

Americans held hostage by terrorists, in POW camps and under enemy fire, can never forget they are American fighting men or civilians. But from journalists to politicians of the Left, we have people with American citizenship who claim to either be against what we fight for to protect innocent citizens of our country or claim to be
“neutral.”

Only during the Vietnam War did America begin to tolerate neutrality in time of war. Thank you Uncle Walter Cronkite for that insight.

I Will Tell You Hogwash

But now it has become an
almost accepted “truth” of our country today. It is hogwash, and it strikes at the very moral fiber of our nation.

Politicians leak intelligence given in closed classified briefings, and they give it their own spin to undermine our elected leaders and our warriors in harm’s way.

But even worse, we have a generation of officers in the military and bluenose operatives in government who leak, seemingly at will. This they take as their democratic right. One
has to question if some of these folks took their oath of
office with their fingers childishly crossed behind their
collective backs.

The John Kerry/Daniel Ellsberg type of military officer/government employee is sadly alive and well. Once again they are multiplying as the leftist arm of the media continues to proliferate like a great cancerous growth on the body politic. As long as we excuse treason as just another political slant, our enemies will plan to prolong any engagement until we quit like a poodle in a fight with a German Shepherd.

Don’t Tell Me ‘Exit Strategy’

Lots of whining and
yelping but not much biting by the wussy pups of this genre.
We are the Dobermans of war, and fear of even a rabid poodle
is heresy in keeping with our sacrificing forebears.

So-called “exit strategy” equals quitting my fellow citizens.

I am not today, nor will I ever be, a “citizen of the world” because I am an American, first, last and always.

I do not go back to nations I have fought to apologize to
Them, but simply to smirk in their wretched little faces over how many of their sorry, mentally captured brethren I slew in battle.

I am an infantry soldier. My very pride is built on the broken bodies of my enemies.

Old Soldiers Don’t Whine

I am not a purveyor of political ideals but simply a life-taker
and will-breaker because bringing political change is
somebody else’s job and not mine.

I am proud of old soldiers when they gather to reminisce. As they mingle, you do not hear a lot of whining, even from those who left parts of themselves broken on a foreign shore. They do talk of what might have been if some politically motivated clown act had not snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. But they do so in eternal anger and not in whining discussion groups led by those who were never there.

But I do hear a recurring theme, which says with great
Sadness, “Who are we and what have we become?”

It is rather simple, really.

We have become a wussified
group of self-thinking, propagandized whiners who believe that nothing is worth the long-haul to pursue.

“Exit strategy” has become the catchword for a nation no longer
yearning for or even seeing the importance of the simple but
irreplaceable word v-i-c-t-o-r-y. So when you mouth the phrase
“Peace on earth, goodwill towards men” this week and next, may we remember the price paid on a cruel cross to try and
achieve it.
