© 2016 Jim Spence Every now and then the media will conduct a poll asking U.S. citizens if they are proud to be Americans. Sadly, the trends are not encouraging. There are only 52 percent of respondents now saying they are extremely proud to be an American. Well, I am extremely proud to be an American. However, like many other proud Americans, I am nauseated by what the Obamas and Clintons are trying to do with the attitudes and value systems that Americans have embraced for many generations. Instead of agreeing on basic ideas and embracing a common sense value system, including all of the amendments in the U.S. Constitution, the Clintons and Obamas play games of deceit.
My favorite former Saturday Night Live comedian is Dennis
Miller. Miller has a great album that came out a couple of years ago called America 180. It
is spot on in terms of explaining all the ways that progressive Democrats are screwing
up our country. And by the way, there is no other kind of Democrat than a
progressive one......because they seem incapable of grasping the fact that they are
just not wrong, they are taking us 180 degrees in the wrong direction.
This Independence Day I can think of no better example of
the precursor for what was coming than to know that the Obamas were attending
Jeremiah Wright’s church for sixteen years. Infamously, and from the pulpit,
Jeremiah Wright, who Barack Obama described as his mentor, called on the Lord. "God Damn
America," he bellowed. He also characterized 9-11 and the murders of nearly 3,000 innocent people as,
“Chickens coming home to roost.” Some mentor for Obama. If you wanted to take
America 180 degrees in the wrong direction all you had to do was vote for a guy
who would go to a church where this sort of thing was going on for 16 years. He took his wife and kids too!
There are so many ways in which America is headed 180
degrees in the wrong direction it is difficult to list them all. Perhaps the
greatest sign that we are more poorly led than at any time in history is the
fact that the current president of the United States argues vehemently that men
who,,,,,“sort of feel like women” should be allowed to pee and poop in the ladies rooms. And
of course anyone who disagrees with this absurd assertion is a homophobic bigot. It is simply madness. America 180.
The lack of reason is stretching to every aspect of our
existence. Doctors spend a decade and a half of their adult lives in schools.
They scrimp and save, work ungodly hours as interns, and often begin their
professional lives heavily in debt. The Obamas treat doctors like greedy
bastards who are not entitled to more income than people who do little or nothing
to enhance their work skills. And Americans somehow wonder why we suffer from a
severe doctor shortage while long waits for medical care are becoming a way of
life? Maybe we should stop bitch slapping our physicians. America 180.
Consider the professions Democrats reward repeatedly. Trial
lawyers, thanks to the Democrats, are provided with legal extortion licenses.
They troll for plaintiffs at every turn. In ads on television, on the internet,
and in print they look for people with a grievance. Around 85% of all trial
lawyers are Democrats. As a group they successfully lobby Congress for easier
litigation avenues. Of course doctors and other health care providers are their
favorite targets. The biggest lie of the 21st Century was, "If you like
your health insurance you can keep it." It was a bald faced lie. For people who
actually pay for their own health insurance, their premiums have skyrocketed
under the Democrats. They told us our costs would fall. Democrats lied to
people who pay their way. It is America 180.
Political skill is what counts in America. It counts so much
that Mr. Obama has used the IRS to target citizen groups that resent all of his lies and try to expose his treachery. The IRS has been caught red handed
promoting the big government agenda of progressive Democrats. Obama refuses to
prosecute. America 180.
Once upon a time the EPA helped America clean up our water and
our air. These days with its job done, the EPA pretends that carbon dioxide, the gas that green plants
need to grow, is a “pollutant.” The EPA has become the KGB. As the South Pole
experiences the coldest temperatures on record, Democrats call for the criminal
prosecution of global warming deniers. The last thing Democrats are interested
in here in the 21st century, is free speech. Freedom of speech (the 1st amendment) is reserved for
Jeremiah Wright when he is asks God to, "Damn American," during his sermons.
America 180.
Have you flown in an
American airport lately? The TSA, which the Obamas and Clintons insisted be
staffed exclusively with government union employees, regularly engages in work slowdowns. Why? They
want to extort more money from Congress for their agency. Shut up and stand in line! America 180.
When radical Islamic terrorists travel back and forth to
countries where training is available to Muslim killers, Democrats shrug and call this
sort of activity unavoidable. If these Muslim killers blow up the finish line at the
Boston Marathon, Democrats shrug and say, “What can we do?” However, if these
same Muslim killers use guns to kill innocent people, Democrats blame the guns.
America 180.
We celebrate Independence Day 2016 with a domestic work participation
rate that is sickeningly low. Democrats tell us we have been recovering economically for
eight years now. America 180.
There are things we can count on. The Clintons, who run an
international crime syndicate known as the Clinton Foundation, feel more emboldened than ever. As the FBI prepared to grill Hillary Clinton over her criminal conduct
related to classified emails, Obama Attorney General Loretta Lynch decided it
was time for her to join the Clinton’s continuous corruption parade. She tried
to meet secretly on a jet in Phoenix with Bill. When she got caught and her secret was out of the bag, she started
dancing and lying like she had been either a Clinton or Obama for a long time. America
180.
Finally, there is a column in the New York Daily News suggesting that the song "God Bless America" offends everyone. I won't bother to explain why other than to say........America 180
Happy 4th of July.
