America's failure to...........ourselves
As I listened to a NPR program the other day Zalmay Khalilzad, our esteemed ambassador to Iraq and the U.N. came on to say the U.N. needed to do more to help stabilize Iraq. This is coming from one of the members of the Project for the New American Century who screwed it up in the first place. Did you know that prior to our invasion and occupation of Iraq , they never in their history had a suicide bombing there? Think about that for a minute would you?
Now this administration is trying to make it sound as though the U.N. would not help in Iraq from the beginning of this mis-guided and apparently illegal war. I recall this administration saying they did not want anyone’s help because they knew just what to do. It seems to me they have screwed this up so royally it will be years before the Iraqi people will be able to sort this mess out.
But it will be the Iraqis who have to straighten it out because we cannot tell them how to run their country. This country had to fight a war between its citizens in order to determine the path it wanted to take and so will the Iraqi people. It is unfortunate that we, the American people sat back and watched this happen. I cannot believe there are some in this country who are still blind to what George is up to.
They have destroyed our constitution and our freedoms and yet some continue to support this insanity. Congress just let him walk all over the fourth amendment to the Constitution by expanding the warrant-less wire tapping of Americans. This is supposed to be the congress elected in 2006 to put an end to this and they rolled over and gave him more power. Are they in on it as well? Are they more concerned with maintaining their power than following the will of the American people and the United States Constitution?
People, our freedoms are being destroyed. Are we going to continue to wait on a spineless congress to do the right thing and impeach the entire lot of criminals currently in the White House? If the congress will not follow the law of America then we must, we are responsible for ensuring the laws of this nation are being implemented.
Read the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence and you will see where it gives the responsibility to the people and not to governments. The reason this is so is because they knew the people in government becomes corrupt and drunk with their so called power over the regular people. Well, they are not elite and this no such thing as a “regular" American in the sense they want to impose on us. They will have you believe they are our superiors and we are just the poor little creatures they pity and shower with their kindness.
I say it is far past the time to break that mindset and stand up and be AMERICANS, the kind of people who can stand on their own and do the things for themselves the government has no business meddling with. If we do this together we can make America what we want it to be and not the aggressive war starting and military occupation entity these individuals want it to be.
I can’t speak for anyone else but I know my ancestors did not make the sacrifices they did so these people could use America to further their twisted view of the world. I am against this cabal who would use every one of us to benefit themselves only. I am for us, the United States citizens, working together in our communities to straighten out the problems we face. I know we can do it and I am ready to commit myself whole-heartedly to this idea.
Are you?
