A Pox on Our House

Benghazi Schmenghazi

The title is not exactly Shakespearean, but it serves the same purpose to describe what has happened to our once-great nation. There is something seriously wrong with America, and it must be changed, lest we go the way of Ancient Rome.

America was founded by great men who put their trust in God, fought valiantly for their freedom, and were ultimately victorious, thence enjoying the blessings of God for nearly two centuries. Then, we had to muck it all up.

For anyone who still believes that folks like Jane Fonda and her entire hippie entourage are responsible for the so-called "great changes" made to this country since the peace revolutions, I suggest you take a look around you. Where is the free love Utopia of which you dreamt? Where are the positive changes you think you fought so hard to achieve? All I see is a Godless nation of miserable people still wandering in search of relief like a dehydrated blind man. None of what any of you envisioned back in the 1960's has come to fruition; you've only brought misery and a cold shoulder from the Lord.

Don't get me wrong, because I am the farthest thing from an Evangelical you're likely to find, but I still believe in God and the ways to remain in His favor, even while acknowledging that we are all sinners to one degree or another. The point is to keep it to a minimum and be contrite -- genuinely contrite-- as often as possible. (You want to thumb your nose at God, be my guest. I'll check your condition later, from my cloud.)

But we have grown very adept at breaking one of His greatest commandments: Thou shalt not lie. Or, if you prefer, "thou shalt not bear false witness". Yes, it was the ninth commandment, but like our Bill of Rights, there were ten, and it is included, so it is Great. We as a people have become dependent on lying, and at great lengths, none more so than our politicians.

We have reached a point in our history where text books can be rewritten over and over again to suit the whims of today's liars without question. In fact, it's gotten so bad that our own journalists -- charged with reporting history as it happens -- have begun the revisionist process in real time. Yes, I'm talking about Benghazi. These alleged journalists seek to change history as it is occurring, despite what we already know and find to be obvious.

Susan Rice lies on television

We already know that the talking points were altered (revised rewritten), and that the people on the ground in Benghazi on September 11, 2012 knew the attack was terrorist related, and that no demonstrations were taking place, and that no YouTube video was responsible. We also know that Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice went on five Sunday talk shows on September 16, 2012, and repeated the lie about the alleged video outrage. We know the Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton spoke of the same lie at the funerals of the deceased from Benghazi, and we know that the president spoke of the very same lie before the United Nations two weeks later.

Now that the Congressional hearings are under way, liberal "journalists" are trying to sway the American people into thinking that this is some sort of witch hunt, when the truth actually still has some value to most people. Some, though, are easily bought and sold on whatever the main stream media tells them.

America has been co-opted by a liberal minority in control of everything from our early education to our later information sources, and that minority is going to be the ruination of us all. We've turned away from God to pursue our earthly desires and shunned the very thing that got us this far, and we wonder why it's all going to Hell?

The devil is happy with table scraps.
