Ditto Ditto...I completely agree with you.
Americans have no greater worry than their pervasive ignorance and their tolerance of the very enemy these citizen soldiers fought against.
The old adage, “if don’t learn from history, you are doomed to repeat it”, is being played out in spades in this country.
I wonder if there is still time to turn it around?...I truly do not know the answer to that question.
Thanks for a great post.

Thank you, Blessings.
As a religious man, I think in terms of God. I believe that when a nation pursues God and morality to at least some degree, God will bless that nation. And one of the ways He blesses such a nation is to protect them from themselves.
You think of all the “little things” upon which history turns. Great battles that hung in the balance and could have gone either way “but for” some small event that happened or didn’t happen.
My prayer has often been, “Lord, please don’t give us the leaders we deserve.”
Personally, I look at the Obama presidency as a sign that God has withdrawn that divine protection to keep us from screwing up. I see all the things that happened or didn’t happen during the campaign (including the economy tanking, which I think was a staged event designed to help Obama) and shake my head.
It’s NEVER too late for a person, or for a nation - if they turn to the Lord. But will we? Or have we reached such a point of moral velocitization (by which what was immoral yesterday is accepted today and “moral” tomorrow), and such a point in a vicious cycle, that we have just shut ourselves off from the God who made this nation great to begin with.
