Divided: America falls
2/11/2009
One look across the American landscape finds our country in trouble. Every crisis facing us in 2009 found its origins within our United States Congress and presidents that led us into wars.
Those men and women, with their hands on the power levers, jacked this country into horrendous debt, endless war and denigration of our culture, language and national cohesiveness.
They bulldozed us into Vietnam, orchestrated Desert Storm and manipulated the Iraq War by deceit, deception and treachery.
Led by Senator Teddy Kennedy, they added 100 million people to our country in the last 40 years with prospects for adding another 100 million in the next 30 years. Human and environmental consequences accelerate by the day!
When historians tabulate the final toll-our politicians perpetrating the war in Iraq can be analogous to poking your hand into a pot of boiling soup. While you keep it in the soup, it scalds your hand, and, when you finally withdraw it, nothing has changed as the soup continues boiling, but your hand ultimately falls off from destructive damage to its ability to function.
