From Where I Stand

I stand to salute the flag of the United States of America.  I believe that from the beginning, we had the best foundation of any Government in our Constitution.  The three separate branches of our Government were designed to balance and ensure liberty for all who live here.

Where did we go wrong?   Why do some people think the Government is the cure for all that ails us and not a good portion of the cause?  How has our wonderful ideas to make sure the poor can survive be the tear in the fabric that is tearing down the middle class?   How can we stand having unemployed Americans and think that opening our borders will make it all better? 

Where is the leadership in Washington that inspires us to get up, stand up and work hard to make this Nation what it once was.  How can a Government take jobs away from the middle class and try to spend the poor into that category?  

I wonder where the people that hear Hillary say they were broke and now worth millions can look at her say that and not either laugh or cry?  Was it a right wing conspiracy that Bill could not keep it in his pants or doesn't it matter any more? 

I for one think the law of unintended consequences should be examined and see what effect our major changes have had on our country.  In Pogo, years ago he said, "I have seen the enemy and her are us!"  Truer words could not be spoken today.
