"Farewell Uncle Sam"

RIP Uncle Sam (1776-2012)

***To those of other countries who read this blog, the focus of the following is upon a deeply divided America that I fear is headed for a precipice and a fall that is beyond the comprehension of her citizens.***

"Farewell Uncle Sam"

Sorry Uncle Sam, my condolences as it seems your demise is at hand. We and all who served you, salute you and all for which you stood.  

They were all there in the execution squad,

• Preoccupation with self interest over the national good,
• Not just big but now gigantic and intrusive government,
• A political class that is out of touch and considers themselves superior to us,
• A secularism that is intolerant of faith,
• Absent ethical standards not to mention decaying moral values,
• Abortion on demand,
• Economic redistribution through excessive taxation,
• Shifting blame in order to accept responsibility,
• Encouraging irresponsibility rather than accepting responsibility,
• A biased media that presents liberal editorial as news,
• Liberal education,
• A National Command Authority that not only does not like the military but disrespects the men and women who serve,
• Creating a victim mentality and thus victims where there were none,



Committee on Un-American Activities

• Class warfare,
• Revisionist history,
• Deception in the highest political offices in the land,
• Politics of personal destruction, and
• Of course there were others.

I am sorry to see you go from us. Before you go, please let me say a big thank you, I really enjoyed supporting you and serving in your military and supporting your citizens in other ways. You meant a great deal to me.  You gave me blessings that no other government has ever bestowed upon her citizens.

For a while there was hope as I watched you valiantly soldiered on even after you have been shot over and over again. But they finally got you when then attacked you with falsehood, environmental junk science, and other excesses.

I shall miss you but not for long for I am in that Medicare generation that will now face decreasing medical care and the same end as millions upon millions of the unborn.  

However, not to worry for the time tested adage, "You reap what you sow" will insure that one day "the chickens come home to roost."  What those special interest groups listed above fail to understand is that big and intrusive government will one day set its sights on many of them.

As it happened in the French Revolution so too it shall fall upon these special interest groups as well.  It will come as the very government in which they believed will intrude into their lives.  They shall then wonder what I did to deserve this?   

Should I still survive I will smile but remain silent.

My sorrow is for our children and grandchildren who will live in a socialist state with controlling, intrusive, government that bleeds them dry of hope and initiative. 

So farewell my friend, farewell. Or as we used to say when the country had a Navy, "Fair winds and following seas."

Your friend,
Alvie
