America needs to wake up

What has become of this once unrivaled nation we call America? I'm as patriotic as anyone, but I don't like what I see going on around me. We've become a nation that caters to our enemies in the Middle East, while forsaking our own homeless and poor here. Those who don't want to work don't have to. They can sit home while those of us who still work pay for them to sit home. If you genuinely need help, in most instances, you can't get it.

We are training soldiers of Middle Eastern countries who have for generations hated us and Israel. Many have forgotten that Osama bin Laden was one of those young soldiers that many years ago trained at the hands of the the American military, only to use our own training against us on September 11, 2001. Now, we are training a whole new generation that can just as easily turn on us down the road.

Our veterans are not accorded the respect they deserve. Many of them struggle to live on welfare with little help from the nation they protected and sacrificed for. They deserve better, America.

Congress won't let us drill for oil on our own soil. Instead, we buy oil from overseas, supporting countries who shake our hands but stab us in the back by funneling oil revenue into the hands of terrorists.

The liberal Congress we unfortunately elected believes they know better than we do what is best for our families. The great Ronald Reagan believed that the money we earned is ours to allocate and spend as we see fit. Our current president believes that he and Congress should tell us how to spend our money.

Thomas Jefferson warned that a government big enough to give you everything you want is big enough to take everything you have, and in this era, that's more truthful than ever. Our government is slowly taking us into the realms of socialism and communism, and the sad part is, the majority of our citizes are letting them do it.

When are we going to say enough is enough? When are we going to take a stand for Biblical, honest, Christian values and shove these godless, atheistic, false prophets out of office?

George Washington said America has but one King. His name is Jesus Christ. It's the job of the president to watch over the land until He gets back. With that being said, our current president is doing one sorry job of watching over things until our Lord and Savior gets back. May God have mercy on us.
