Profundity from my friend Jim Green, who after a nightmare from hell
motorcycle trip, where damned near everything went south, has taken a flight
back to Maine; first flight in years.
Aside from the mental image of Jim going through the modern commercial
flight nightmare, and the amusement that evokes, Jim made a very good
observation, following the byzantine navigation of “security” at the terminal.
“Too bad getting across the
border and into the country ain’t as difficult as flying from one state to
another in America”.
And that is the truth. And it is not only air travel, but in most
things these days…….we treat Americans like Americans do not belong in America.
You can run across the
border, repeatedly, and voila! But we
cannot travel by air without the full body cavity search, and increasingly a
passport or other federally approved ID (don’t try using your concealed carry
permit as your ID…….that merely arouses suspicion).
We are sending at least ONE
actress to jail for bribing her daughter into college (the smart one; she took
a plea….the other one is all in on a court trial….expect her to get at least twice
the time), yet we have entire states
willing to give illegal immigrants free college tuition.
Across this nation, leftists
are freaking out….I mean LOSING THEIR MINDS, over states passing the “heartbeat
bill”, prohibiting abortion past the point of discovery of the heartbeat…..roughly
around 4-6 weeks. In Indiana, a black,
female state legislator penned an amendment to that bill, exempting the black
unborn, and allowing them to be aborted right through the 20th
week. I have NO idea what black
democrats have against black babies, but I am certain that the very idea
conflicts with the idea of “anchor babies” that allow for illegals to stay in
America because they had a child….here.
If you get a moving
violation in any state, ANY state, and do not get it resolved, you will not get
a drivers license in ANY OTHER STATE…..but if you live in CA, and increasingly
OTHER states, you can show up still wet from crossing the Rio Grande, with NO
verifiable background of anything, and not only get a drivers license, but
register to vote.
Our government, and I am
painting with a broad brush, because it is really the democrat party, treats
Americans like they simply have no place in America. And it didn’t USED to be like that. The democrats, historically, and at least in
public, was all about the common man, the blue collar worker; despite the American
lefts’ habitual alliance with communist and socialist ideology. So, we gave them our major cities, and now
people are shitting on the sidewalk, if they can afford to live there. We gave them, in conjunction with the
socialist based unions, our major industries, and they killed steel, and
energy, and damn near killed the car industry, along with every other thing of
economy they touched. We allowed their
ideas to permeate the military to the point where winning wars is a second
consideration for the military. They now
focus on killing babies in the womb, and sometimes out of it, spending money on
every social program they can even IMAGINE; a war on poverty that has left more
in poverty than before the great society…..they have failed America on all
fronts.
So why not turn to new
territory and new people to fail? I
think they are confidant that we wouldn’t notice….because for Americans, we are
just accustomed to it. Jim Greens’
comment was spot on……it is too bad that we are not as good as everyone who is
not us.
Like King Longshanks said in the movie Braveheart: "The problem with Scotland is that it's full of Scotts!"
