Crush Liberalism

9/11/2001

To those of you on the left: Feel free to Google that date if it doesn’t ring a bell for you.

It’s hard to believe that it’s been seven years since that fateful day.  All of us remember what we were doing when we heard about the attacks on the WTC and Pentagon, as well as United Flight 93 going down in Shanksville, PA.  The face of this country changed forever.

See, gone were the days of Clintonian capitulation.  Gone were the days of Reagan’s scamper out of Beirut.  Gone were the days of bombing an aspirin factory in the Sudan, or trying to serve an warrant to Osama bin Laden or reading him his rights.  That fateful day marked the turning point in this country when we looked at the backwards savages who slaughtered in the name of their god and said “We will hunt you down like the couscous-sucking dogs that you are and snuff you out, for however long it takes!”  We meant it, too.

At least, we meant it back then.

You see, we’re at another turning point in this nation.  We seem to live in a short-attention span society, where more people can tell you who won American Idol rather than who Al Qaeda is.  We’re in a time that seems to expect, if not demand, quick answers, preferably those that can fit on a bumper sticker, regardless of whether or not such “answers” are even feasible.  When President Bush said seven years ago that this war against an enemy that will stop at nothing to destroy us will take several years, including well after he is gone from office, we all said “So be it!”

Apparently, for many, they’re now saying “Are we still at this?  I mean, 24 is over in an hour, so why are we still trying to crush the Islamic zealots seven years later?”  It’s as if some people are content with the fact that we have foiled every attempt to attack us since then, thinking that we’re immune from future attacks.  Don’t these folks realize that Social Security reform, health care, unemployment, mortgage defaults, energy, etc., are all meaningless issues if we’re friggin’ dead??

This year, we have two choices for our president.  We have a choice between an imperfect man who knows fully well the evil that lurks in some cretins’ black hearts, having personally experienced said evil; a man who is willing to do whatever it takes to obliterate our sworn enemies; a man who has spent his entire adult life dedicated to protecting and serving our country, and has to prove to no one how well qualified he is to be leader of our armed forces.  In short, a flawed man whose chief desire is to serve country over self.

The other choice is a self-absorbed, petulant, serial liar who wants to Mirandize Islamic terrorists; a man who thinks that terrorism is a mere law-enforcement issue, not a multi-faceted issue (military, diplomatic, financial approaches); a man whose heart bleeds for Islamic terrorists (but not for infants who survive botched abortions, whom he deems “not persons”), and whose primary concern is that bloodthirsty camelhumping jihadists get access to an ACLU attorney; a man who has spent his post-law school days trying to pad his resume and further his own ambitions, with little substantive achievement to show for his efforts; and a man who is as ignorant of the Constitution (despite being a “constitutional law scholar”) as he is of economics.  In short, an empty suit whose chief desire is to serve self over country.

Al Qaeda may have hit us with a sucker punch that stung mightily, but because of our resolve, they didn’t destroy our way of life.  We will be voting for the leader of the free world this November.  While I strongly advise you to choose wisely, I also remind you of this:  the winner will be whomever God wants to win.  God has allowed this country to be blessed with great leaders (George Washington, Abe Lincoln, Ronald Reagan), and He has allowed this country to have poor leaders (Herbert Hoover, Jimmy Carter, and Bill Clinton).  While leaders are incredibly important, it is foolish to put all your faith in a man instead of in God.  Do your part, and let the chips fall where they may.

To use a phrase that is sure to torque Rev. Wright: God bless America!
