Following up on my shame

In a previous missive, I wrote the following:

For years, since leaving the Democratic Party as a voter and supporter, I have tried my very best to maintain an image of optimism, that somehow America is the still the greatest Nation on planet Earth and that somehow, no matter what the progressive Democrats did, that somehow this Nation would still be able to overcome. I now realize that this was nothing more than foolish folly on my part.

After going back and rereading that, and seeing the reactions of some of my readers and looking at the darkness on my blog. I realized two things; one, I allowed myself to fall into the trap of cynicism and defeatism. Two, I allowed my emotions to get the best of me. I apologize to my readers for allowing that to happen.

My friends, I still love this Country and I still believe that the idea of a free Republic is still a very good idea and one that has served this Country well since its founding. However, let me be very clear; I am extremely disappointed in the Republican and Democratic Parties in their handling of this fiscal cliff. Both of these parties are using this cliff for political gain and we the American people are going to suffer bitterly for it.

The best idea that the Republicans have at this moment is, just walk away and let the Democrats have their mess. The Democrats best idea is to allow the fiscal cliff to happen, so that they can blame the Republicans. My friends, this is not in the best interest of America and its people; this is nothing more than political posturing and it is doing nothing for anyone, but the political players themselves.

What is the solution? My friends, at this point, outside of prayer for our Nation; there is no real quick solution. We are a civilized society here in America and we settle our differences, not with guns, violence and mayhem; that is idiotic anarchy —- we settle them at the ballot box. The Democrats may have won this round, but 2014 is coming and it will be when the America people will be able to vote those out, who acted in their self-interests and not in the interests of the American people.

In conclusion: I have brought back the earlier blog theme. Although, I believe I will forgo the American Nationalist look and keep it more basic this time. I will continue to write for love of Country, God and American values. I will try to keep my emotions in check and not allow myself to be drawn into the darkness that is cynicism and fatalism.

Again, I thank of you who e-mailed me and expressed your genuine concerns that I might have fallen into depression and given up. I will never give up on freedom, it is something that will drive me for the rest of my days; if only to undue some of the idiocy and misdeeds of my youth.

Freedom’s best days are ahead and I am here for the duration.
