The House is Burning, and Many are not Concerned

The global barbarians are at the gate, the economy is full of contradictions and uncertainty, crime is rampant across this nation, our two national political parties are locked in on leadership in the form of two terribly flawed elder politicians (NOT statesmen), and every day that goes by without a positive step towards improvement of these dynamics drives us deeper into the chasm of confusion and danger. 

 

I think that many people are waiting for that moment or event that will signify some type of resolution to this upside/down world is dawning...or at the very least…possible.  But that moment or that event has not yet arrived.  Even more concerning, it appears more apparent every day that the moment or event will not be engineered or planned, but will instead have to be some type of organic and spontaneous happening that somehow snaps this nation and this planet back to some form of sense and sensibility.  May God be with us.

 

Many folks have simply surrendered to the status quo; thinking that all things shall pass and that this too shall pass.  They are comfortable in their belief that our democracy is sufficiently durable and that good will prevail over evil.  We must all hope and pray that these people are correct.  For if they are not, and that epiphany of a return to some type of logic and common sense does not occur soon, then our tomorrows would appear likely to be much dimmer than our yesterdays have been.

 

The Democrat Party has sold its soul to the radical liberal element in our culture and society and has mortgaged its foreseeable future to sustain a tired old man who hardly knows what day of the week it is, much less the business at hand.  The Republican Party has allowed itself to be conquered lock, stock, and barrel by an egomaniacal narcissist that has somehow sucked all of the oxygen out of its political organization.

 

It is tiresome to continually bitch and moan about our government and our nation’s ills when there is so much good, so many blessings, and so much positive potential present all about us.  But until that wealth of positivity can somehow coalesce and effectively mitigate the madness that has become its polar opposite, there is little choice but to shout at the delirium in hopes of bringing the salvation forward.

 

The blind loyalty of the Democrat Party, the mainstream media, and the liberal community of America to the Biden Family Enterprises is baffling.  Notwithstanding the shame of the blatant dual justice system that is currently being administered by the Biden Administration and all of its allies, the fact that they continue to escape any type of scrutiny whatsoever from our left-leaning journalistic and academic communities is dumbfounding.  Joe Biden is not simply an imbecilic, foolish, arrogant sham of a President; he is also a thoroughly corrupted politician.  Tick … tick … tick …

The incompetence and general inefficiency or our U.S. government has been steadily growing in a bipartisan sense for several decades now.  The Biden Administration has somehow managed to accelerate that devolution to warp speed mode.   Best described as a house of fools doing foolish things for foolish reasons, the Biden Administration and its progressive allies continue to shovel forth their liberal nonsense, oblivious to the terrible consequences, both present and future, that these actions entail.

They manage our economy as if it were some kind of a drunken, fraternity monopoly game.

At a time when imported terrorist threats are at an all-time high, they persist with an insane open southern border strategy.

Our schools and national education in general have lost their sense of purpose and have become a petri dish of social experimentation.

Their “Alice in Wonderland” foreign policy continues to estrange our allies, embolden our enemies, and generally confuse anyone who might be trying to make sense of it.  They have frittered away all international credibility and respect.  The Middle East is burning and they are fiddling…frittering and fiddling.

If our leaders…and we as individuals…are incapable of calling out the pure evil of Hamas as illustrated by their attack on Israel, then we have surely desensitized ourselves to the point where our morality is lost.  There is no moral equivalency between self defense against attack and indiscriminate slaughter of innocent civilians.  If we are incapable of making that distinction, then what have we become?

They continue their inexhaustible pursuit of more power and a supreme autocratic government.  Their agenda tramples individual rights while demanding pure allegiance at the expense of independent opinion and thought.  They repeatedly rise to challenge the constitutional premises upon which this nation was founded.

Their constant promotion of the Green New Deal and DEI makes no common sense whatsoever, wields discrimination under the guise of combating discrimination, reeks of rank hypocrisy, and does nothing more than perpetuate the partisan, ideological, and racial divides that haunt our nation.

The Republican Party has become an example of political incompetence with its disunity, dysfunction, and blind loyalty to Donald Trump.  At the moment, it is a valid…but “less than desirable” alternative to the Democrats.  The selection of Mike Johnson as House Speaker can go one of two ways: It will either plunge an inexperienced legislator into the deep end of the pool which is well over his head and thus lead to further chaos…or…it will signal a new direction for House Republicans and usher in the beginnings of younger leadership with fresh and focused perspectives.  I will hope for the latter.  As for the Donald Trump problem…he still seems inevitable, but hope springs eternal as long as the nomination is not yet official.  As amateurish as the Republicans appear to be, they are still far favorable to what we have seen from the Democrat Party that has been commandeered by liberal radicals, rogue ideologues, and a fairy tale logic that pervades all of their policies and rhetoric.
