These topics always allow me to get on my soap box about the waning of the America I remember......by the way....not too different from Australia or any of the other countries that do not subscribe to permissive pacifism or catering to special interest groups or lobbyists or that disgusting catalyst called PC (political correctness).

And the most important ingredient of all for this waning, whining and deterioration...the majority of this country who seem content to just let it happen.

I hope in my remaining years as a proud resident of the USA, unafraid to be standing up and be counted when and where needed.....that I see what ever it may be that will turn that around. I won't use the word change as it has already been watered down to a political concept that has little or no meaning!
