Sad To Have To Say This Just After The D-Day Anniversary

There is a difference between the desirable and the feasible. If America had the strength, as in _overwhelming_ superiority that _nobody_ could even begin to challenge.... and if we retained the moral integrity to assure that such strength would NOT be used to enslave others for our own gain.... then it would be a _great_ idea for us to overthrow a series of dictatorships all over the world, bringing freedom to billions of people. No, this _wouldn't_ inevitably have to mean we were being a greedy imperial power. America-bashers don't like to admit it, but Japan was quite literally made _more_ free by being _occupied_ for a time by us; it was _America_ which gave Japanese women the ability to vote.                  


Unfortunately, we have been weakened to an extent which probably is uncurable. Communist infiltration -- and I remind skeptics that _Russia_ has confessed that the Soviet-era infiltration _was_ real -- has eroded our will to resist global dictatorship. Various U.S. administrations have wasted our strength on counter-productive interventions; I leave it open to discussion _which_ interventions were the most ill-advised. Our nation and its citizens have done monumental deeds of charity and compassion for needy people worldwide; but those who selfishly envy our success have labored to ensure that we _don't_ get any credit for this. Our economy is being drained by parasites, domestic and imported. And our technology, which was our greatest material advantage for war, has been stolen from us, chiefly by China.                            


Our gun is about out of bullets, and the rowboat has a dozen holes in its bottom. It was never _inherently_ wrong for the United States to be the strongest nation on Earth, but between one thing and another, we've dropped the ball -- both losing our strength, AND losing our moral worthiness to lead. We've missed out on many of the fine things we could have done and been. And as a sad irony, we _still_ have Americans who think that the "cure" for our ills is to INCREASE THE DISEASE: more welfare entitlements, more appeasement of evildoers, etc.                            


If God does not see fit to intervene for us, the whole North American continent will almost certainly be in bondage under some form of absolute dictatorship within the next five years OR LESS. Then all the delusional Democrats who thought we would be better off without that icky Bible and that icky free enterprise, will _experience_ exactly what life is like without the Bible and without free enterprise. Then they'll wish they _hadn't_ been so eager to saw off the branch they were sitting on.
