I used to be proud to be an American. Never let the flag touch the dirt, rah rah. We are the greatest, rah rah. America, land of the free, rah rah.
There was a time when this nation deserved my loyalty, my fealty to its leaders, my trust in the principles of it’s Constitution, it’s justice system and courts of law.
Not anymore. Now I’m less valued as a citizen by what passes for a government than one of the lice-ridden trash running in across our border. Almost everyone in elected office today is on the same side of this government and they aren’t there to promote principles of freedom and human dignity, they’re there to enrich themselves and hand off the nation to Globalism.
In truth this has very little effect on me and my life, if any at all. I’m only commenting on it because it’s true and the change is striking if you make the leap from then, the past, to right now and ignore the in-between.
It’s when changed is gradual like this that people get used to it, and don’t pay it much attention. Which is how it was able to happen, of course.
