Wussies To
The Left Of Me Wimps To The Right
Marine Corps legend, Chesty Puller, when informed in the middle of a
fierce ground battle that his troops were completely surrounded, said
words to the effect of, "Good, now we can shoot at the S.O.B.s
in any direction".
"Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead!" "Praise the Lord
and pass the ammunition!" These are the words and deeds of brave
men who stood for what they believed in even if it took their last drop
of blood.
America has always won against far superior forces, simply because our
people have always had the tenacity and the courage to spit in the face
of an enemy's overwhelming strength and never give an inch even when
their backs were to the wall.
American history is full of accounts of bravery and valor that reaches
far beyond the pale of any simple call to duty to a place of rarified
air only visited by the bravest of the brave and the boldest of the
bold.
How would you like to go to war with Eric Holder guarding your left
flank and Janet Napolitano guarding your right?
How would you like to get in a bar fight with Harry Reid watching your
back?
The schools in this country are teaching revisionist history to our
children, belittling or even omitting American heroes and reducing morals
to a gray area with no absolutes and even denying the omnipotence of
the God who made the very earth they stand on, the ACLU standing by
with bated breath, eager to sue at the mere mention of His name.
Part of the Supreme Court thinks the Constitution is only a list of
suggestions, and from the looks of things that attitude will only worsen
with the recent appointees.
Our President lies with impunity and criticizes an immigration bill
he admits he hadn't even read, while taking every opportunity to smear
the country that was silly enough to elect him President.
Our Attorney General is more concerned with extending the rights of
a full-fledged American citizen to a murdering scumbag Islamic terrorist
than he is in seeing justice carried out. He also hasn't read the immigration
bill that he is criticizing and threatening to bring legal action against
it.
Our Director of Homeland Security is seriously not up to the job and
only the grace of God saved the lives of untold numbers of Americans
in New York recently when an Islamic terrorist who had flown to Pakistan
something like thirteen times without making the no fly list left a
bomb on a busy Manhattan street and scampered to the airport where he
almost escaped aboard an Arab airline. She is also criticizing the immigration
bill that she hasn't read.
That's three
of the most powerful people in the U.S.A. lying about and distorting
legislation they admitted they haven't even read. It's insane.
Our Democrat-controlled Congress and Senate, realizing that they will
probably not have a majority in both houses after November are feverishly
cramming one catastrophic spending program after another down the throats
of an Obama weary America.
There seems to be a pervasive attitude of "If ya can't beat 'em
join 'em" as state after state gets ready to legalize certain drugs
and there are those who say that we just can't do anything about our
southern border.
I have one word for that, "baloney".
We can do something about anything if we would only go about it the
right way. We just simply don't have enough real men in power who are
willing to stand for something besides their next election and the political
party they belong to.
They think no more about betraying America than they do of swatting
a fly, a pitiful bunch of limp-wristed cowards who blow in the wind
like a limp rag, lacking the guts or the integrity to pay the cost of
doing the right thing for America.
Anybody with a mere semblance of a brain has to know that what Barack
Hussein Obama and the Democrats are doing can only have a bad ending,
in fact, in my estimation, bad is a much too mild a word to describe
what's going to happen when Obama's crippled chickens start coming home
to roost.
And yet there is not one strong voice on Capitol Hill who is willing
to risk the wrath of the media to say, "Hey wait a minute, this
President is ruining the economy of our country for generations to come
if not forever!!!"
Not one has the gonads to stand up and shout, "No you cannot grant
citizenship to twelve million people who came into this country illegally
just so the Democrats can stay in office for the next hundred years!!!
Whatever happened to the men who had the guts to stand for what is right,
no matter how unpopular, no matter what the personal cost?
What ever happened to the American citizen who would stand up and say,
"Hell no, don't even think about taking my guns away and I demand
school vouchers for my children so they can learn what I think they
should learn instead of that socialist crap the teacher's unions are
supporting. I'm tired of paying taxes and having my money given to support
the socialistic laziness of a nation like Greece. I want to hear my
President and his administration call an Islamic terrorist an Islamic
terrorist and I want the ones we've caught tried in a military tribunal."
It seems that America's pioneer spirit has all but evaporated in the
steamy morass of political correctness and compromise that is taking
more backbone out of each succeeding generation.
I'm so sick of the empty suits and milksop scoundrels on both sides
of the aisle in Washington and the state capitols.
America is looking for a few good men and women; spineless sellouts
need not apply.
Wussies to the left of me, wimps to the right.
It's sickening.
What do you think?
Pray for our troops, and for our country.
God Bless America
