When you announce publicly that your primary goal as a public servant is to make sure your president fails, you are not a patriot. Nor are you truly a public servant. Republican and Tea Party spin may not be the only reason six people were killed at a political rally in Arizona last Saturday, but it cannot be overlooked either.
Sarah Palin had gun sight cross hairs pasted over 2010 democratic candidates on her website. Arizona Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords was one of them. She was shot in the head on January 13, 2011, along with 16 others. Six were killed, including a nine year old girl.
Republican leader Mitch McConnell, along with other outspoken conservatives, have spent the past two years blocking Obama Administration appointments, and every piece of legislation and they can by using the filibuster more than any other legislative body in a generation.
This what America has become.
We are no longer a nation striving toward self-improvement. We are a land of power-mongers who will stop at nothing to seize control of our government. Their goal is to redistribute wealth, and only protect those who can afford to buy their own protection.
America is on an untraveled road that is taking her into a dark forest. In the dense shadows, our freedoms are being dealt away, because the power-mongers are willing to harm many for the gains of a few.
