A Hope?

This is the last post for America is Lost.I believe if you look back to when this blog was started in October you will find many topics addressed that should provoke thought and concern. It is well worth taking the time to read and consider the facts presented in these 50+ entries. It is my hope that those who have read what I have to say will at least become more aware of what is going on around them.I am still dumfounded when I hear and read things said and written by people who I believe are more intelligent then myself. For instance,in the wake of the near disaster that almost occurred involving a muslim man who attempted to blow up a plane headed for Detroit, there has been resistance by the media and many politicians to accept two necessary courses of action. The first one seems simple enough,describe the man for what he is,a terrorist. Strangely,our president won't do so despite the overwhelming evidence that this man is one. Secondly,due to the consistant similarities among the people who have committed terrorist acts since 9-11,there has finally been a call for increased attention given to potential passengers who fit the profile of what a terrorist is,you know,those who are male,middle-eastern,african,etc.,you get what I mean. It only seems logical doesn't it? Yet,if you watch or read the news you have already witnessed the outcry of many in the media and in Washington against doing this. It sort of reminds me when after the Fort Hood murders, part of Time magazine's coverage of that event included an article about muslims in the U.S. fearing "retaliation". Retaliation? Was there any retaliation after 9-11? Has there ever been any? No! So why is Time magazine writing an article sympathetic to muslims after one of their brethren just committed a terrorist attack? Don't the apologists in the media and government realize that by their actions,or inaction, they are undermining their own safety and well being?
So, is there hope for this country? If there is it's up to the American people. It's up to the American people to rise up and have their voices heard.There has been a hint of this in the form of "tea parties" and the outcry against the immigration bill George Bush attempted to enact a few years back. But, there will have to be a whole lot more people becoming involved before the powers that be will take notice and respond. A WHOLE lot more!
I close with this: read and remember who the forefathers of this country were, read what they believed in and what they did in response to those beliefs.
Wake-up America,it's later than you think!
