The one thing I do believe is that 43 believes he is doing the right thing and has the stones to stick with his convictions. He has good character.

Unfortunately, good character is not a description I would give to Pelosi, Frank, Kennedy, Schumer, Reid, Dodd, Biden, Obama, and on and on. The American people as a whole will pay dearly for allowing these folks to stay in office this long and cause so much damage, some irreversible as well.

We are where we are. The ignorant electorate has spoken. I don't mean that everyone is stupid. I just mean that they are ignorant because they have been lazy and not paid attention. They let the lying politicians and MSM tell them what to think.

The solution is long and painful. Forget Republican and Democrat parties. Start voting out ANYBODY who does not show strength of character, real caring for this country and its sovereignty, and moral values that many have long since trashed via political correctness. PC is just another term for Godlessness in my opinion.

True, getting this first part done will take more than just a few election cycles. But in that time we must grow leaders with these basic principles who will govern as in service to this country and not to get rich. Service is serving, not taking.

It will also take years to get our colleges and education system unscrewed. Our young people need to learn critical thinking. The ones that are being turned out now for the most part are drones who can spew out the PC gibberish. If we don't get down to this folks, soon we will be gone and then all will be lost. Our children and grandchildren will reap the hell on earth we can't even imagine.

Freedom and liberty will be things only mentioned in history books.

Think about it. No commentary necessary. But think about it. Self assessment doesn't hurt every one in a while. We are not perfect. But we can DO better.
