My country right, my country wrong, still my country
In George Washing's farewell address to the Nation, among many things, he also addressed party
politics such as: "...I have already intimated to you the danger of parties within the State..This
spirit, unfortunately, is inseparable from our nature, it exists under differ shapes in all
governments...but in those of the Popular Form, it is seen in its greatest rankness and it is truly
their (our) worst Enemy...It serves always to distract the public council;s and enfeebles the
public administrations. It agitates the Communities with ill-founded jealousies and False-Alarms....IT OPENS THE DOORS TO FOREIGN INFLUENCE AND CORRUPTION...Thus the policy and will of our country are subject to the power and will of another."
Earlier, in this address, he stated the following: "For this you have inducement of sympathy and
interest. Citizens by birth or by choice of a common country, that country has a right to
concentrate your affections. The name of America, which belongs to you in national capacity,
must exists in just pride of patriotism more than any application derived from local discrimination's."
Now as than, the comments of George Washington could not be more timely! His foresight, one
one could rightly say, uncanny. Today our nation is as divided we were prior to the Civil War.
We are today divided as were than. Why has our nation as it stands today, so divided- The
question should be, when has it become so popular to be disloyal to ones .country. Well for
one thing, many of our citizens of today, are unwilling to be assimilate into our system of
government, they prefer to be called Hyphenated Americans. Those that choose to be looked on
as hyphenated Americans, can only be looked on as having a certain grudge or in fact an outright
hatred of this country. Today, we have been called a mean country, an oppressor nation, a mean
country and yes even in church our country has been called Goddamn America.
Many of these citizens also think we stole this land from the Indians and/or that we stole
the Border States, from the Mexicans--none of which is true--you cannot claim land or
property without first having possession. The Indians, never seem, as a people, perhaps more
or less, ten percent of American. They never settled even one percent of this great land. The
Mexicans never owned the Border States--They were owned by the Spanish and as such were
the Spanish Border Lands. In the Mexican-American war, we defeated the Mexicans and
in the process we conquered this land. Still we also, paid Mexico, as great sum of money for
this land.
Today, many of the Black Race, are crying out for Reparations, because their forefathers were
Brought here as slaves. Thomas Sowell a black professor put it this way, "If the bench mark
of today would be used, be the standard, than one would have to conclude that the descendants
of former slaves it might be concluded, would own this nation for bringing them to this land, and
or in words to that effect. Today, every time this subject is brought up, the fact that our nation
was never a total Slave State, if it was, then I ask, who fought the Civil War. Today, as in the
past, the White man, who founded and built this nation, is by all two many, blamed for
the ills of others. Others that feel they, even in this day an age, cannot make it on their own.
If otherwise, please explain why all these Socialistic freebies occupy your minds and your
value systems. I Guess Freedom is no longer the objective but Freeloading is.
Today, the Socialist Democratic Party is a party based on a constituency now 40 percent
Dependant on Welfare in one form or another. This, today, is why we are divided by the
Red States vs The Blue States. For the Most part, the Blue states have a larger population than
the Red of a class of citizens that are now being served their freebies off the backs of the
Productive members of our Nation. Every time a Democrat says he will give them something
it has to free. Do not get me wrong, there are many, in all of our citizens, who are still the backbone of this country, love this country are willing to defend this country and are
handworking people. These are still the Loyal and Proud Citizens of this Nation--They are Loyal and Freedom loving Citizens! The Messenger.
