A gallon of gas is costing $4 a gallon, millions of illegal and undocumented aliens moving in and out of our countries borders unchallenged, our children continuing to fall further and further behind school children of many other countries and school drop out rates are at a seldom mentioned crisis level. Thousands of tons of illicit drugs and other contraband continue entering our country along with many of those illegal immigrants. Major U.S. business corporations fleeing the U.S. like rats from a sinking ship and our governments insistence on issuing visa’s to foreign workers, allegedly to fill our nations own shortage of skilled (read more expensive) workers.

   The establishment of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) agency which was supposed to bring connectivity and better focus to many other federal bureaucratic agencies but which has in fact just added to the utter chaos and bureaucratic malaise that all Americans have come to know and hate, even as our tax dollars continue supporting this madness. Our government still inspects a miniscule number of the containers shipped into our country while refusing to enforce our border security, even while ensuring that every single passenger (at least the ones who use public air transport) goes through the ridiculous security charade at every major and minor airport in the country.

   Our government continues secretive meetings with other countries on trade agreements (I wonder why they have to be secret?) while allowing an ever increasing number of frivolous law suits from illegal aliens suing American schools and other American institutions for their “English only” policies to those anti-American “civil rights” groups like the ACLU. You know the group that is quick to sue any bastion of American history and traditional moral values. Children used to pledge allegiance to their country, engage in brief group prayers and actually learn the three R’s that have always been the foundation of all education at the public schools level. Teachers used to actually be held accountable for their demonstrated teaching abilities and spent more time on teaching history than they now do teaching “revisionist” history which might have been found offensive to the odd person here or there. Our education system has been turned on it's head more times than I can remember but Congress keeps making the process sound so complicated, which it certainly is not. Unless you don't want to hold anyone accountable that is.

   But where is the ACLU when Muslim groups insist on “female” only times in public pools, gyms and other public (read our taxpaying dollars built and supported) to the exclusion of the vast majority. Where is the ACLU when Muslim’s hold Arabic prayer sessions in our public schools in class rooms with the drapes drawn and the American flag covered? How is it that groups like the ACLU not only survive but thrive in our country? I don’t blame the ACLU but our Congress. Regardless of whether you believe in a supreme deity or not, what was the harm in raising our children to at least understand that they may be held accountable for the actions of today in the here after? Look what has happened when they have no reason to believe in anything but those material possessions they can aquire and the way they treat everyone around them? It's not that they are bad kids but that through the wonders of our rapidly changing technologies they are able to have less and less real contact with other people while being exposed to depictions of violence never seen in human history at younger and younger ages. Remember that not to long ago there was a movement in this country condeming those Bugs Bunny, Road Runner and Yosemite Sam cartoons, but look what is now allowed through the medium of games and movies where every blood splatter and exploding head looks so very real through enhanced high definition.

   How do we account for the fact that there are at least 20 Muslim governed countries which forbid American non-Muslim religious leaders into their countries even as we continue to allow hundreds of their own Muslim religious leaders to travel into the United States, and despite the factual knowledge that a surprising number of these “religious” leaders have direct ties to numerous terrorist organizations. Oh, and did I mention that two of those Muslim nations include none other than Afghanistan and Iraq? You can read for yourself here: http://www.jihadwatch.org/dhimmiwatch/archives/022253.php  

   And since I am on the subject of those “religion of peace” Muslims, how else do you explain the fact that our government is seriously considering paying our newest ally Moammar Gadhafi of Libya, for the Reagan era bombing of his country! He committed horrific atrocities which our government not only knows but can prove, but we will pay him to continue to be our “moderate” Muslim ally.

    How else can you explain that our Congress continues to pump billions and trillions of our tax dollars to foreign countries, while we maintain tens of thousands of our military forces in more "allied" countries where we pay those countries for the privilege of helping to defend their anti-American governments; even as Congress continues to bicker and argue about the 1.5 trillion dollars desperately needed to repair and replace our aging roads and bridges?  

   There is only one group consisting primarily of only a few hundred Americans that are directly responsible for the current state of our nations affairs; the United States Congress. Yet when it comes time for taking responsibility for any of these things they continue to point the finger of blame at anyone or anything but themselves. Like the old saying goes; Only in America!
