On the Home Front
Much of the turmoil in the USA probably is part of a greater turmoil in the entire world. But in the same vein, the turmoil here at Home may be more acting than reacting. In the dog and tail wagging analogy, just is the USA dog wagging the world tail, or otherwise? The reported evidence suggests arguments for both. And all the enhanced connectivity throughout the world enhances the dog and tail wagging analogies.
Most USA people are too busy with work or families to even worry or think about all this. So the discussion is probably more limited to those that care, and have the time to think and act. While the percentages may be small, the demographics are large on a USA Home Front. And while many claim expertise based on intelligence and homework, many claim expertise based on experience. Hence one can focus on the USA Home Front, since most USA citizens have experience mostly at home, and based on their experience in their lifetime.
The oath most USA politicians and many others, as in the military, take, is to the Constitution, and not any individual or cause. The oath always mentions enemies, foreign and domestic, also. I always thought the domestic enemy idea was silly, even in the last few decades. Now the recent minor examples of sedition, criminality, and cult-like behavior have prompted a rethink of my earlier thinking. The examples are the military recruitment center treatments in Berkley and New York City, the burnings of many homes in Washington State because they did not meet some peoples’ definition of environmental purity, and the USA cult-like behaviors tolerating political correctness while encouraging nanny state governments that have always failed so far, and taken a lot of our money along the way. On the latter, one can say we are throwing good money after bad in pursuit of nirvana. For the conspiracy minded, someone got that money, just not the intended.
Most unnerving is what our society has done with educating our children, our future generations. That some of these children choose sedition and anarchy over reasoned arguments and voting is appalling to me. And I don’t blame the older generations, a relative idea if there ever was one. But that some find it appealing or nifty or cool to burn down someone else’s house or throw a bomb at a military recruiting station or suppress free conservative (many would say smart) economic ideas because they disagree is a symptom of some underlying disease that, like all diseases, must be eradicated ruthlessly. And most probably assume a certain small percentage of any population will be anarchists and self anointed religious police, or just plain retards in their own way, but it seems we in the USA are making or attracting more than our fair share these days.
The courses of action are obvious. We kill the disease, and we attack the symptoms and causes. The war on malaria in the USA is a good historical example, though the politics of today’s courses are complicated because humans and politics are both the disease, and the cause. And sorry Mom or Dad if your kid, or my kid, gets caught up and eradicated. They are playing dangerous games that will not be tolerated. And there are other safer and so American courses of action.
I for one, on the Home Front, have little patience for attacking the symptoms and causes as the main course of action if it means the anarchists and other retards are allowed more time to take us down on the Home Front. There is enough evidence that our way of life in the USA is being attacked domestically, and we need to use basic Small Wars and third world practices to “kill the disease” while we also attack the symptoms and causes. It has been tough to say this, but there we are. Hard to believe, isn’t it?
If the present friction over the southern border control problems are any hint, then the present politicians’ of both national parties unwillingness to do the “will of the people” also applies to the wink and a nod attitude towards the tolerance of the anarchists and seditionists and all other domestic retards. So there we are again.
The difference between many, and the anarchists and the seditionists and the narcissist retards, is a socialist idea, and an oath, as to defend a Constitution, against all enemies, foreign and domestic.
It should be interesting to see if the two national parties, democrats and republicans, will rise to the times in 2008. Probably not for the most basic status quo motivations. But as they arose in our not too distant past, those involved at the time were so excited. Now that is another course of action that is so American!
What is so hard to guess is: will we come up with one or two new national parties in our future? Much change is in the air, and long called for. Only time will tell.
