As I dusted the table tops this morning, my blog post for today became apparent. Our American Eagle's wing was broken. Not sure how it happened, or when. But as soon as I moved it to dust, the thing just fell off.
It Made me think of the countries current situation. Like that ceramic wing, America is broken. Much of the government is shut down, and we are about to extend our debt ceiling once again. We have no money, and owe China our backsides.
I feel we are so far gone that the only thing to turn us around is a total economic collapse. Maybe some folks need that. Perhaps suddenly being launched 100-200 years into the past is what is needed.
Those who voted for this, Those who even did it twice. I compare them to the loyalist who sided with King George during the Revolutionary War. The loyalist were promised gold, and land if they took up arms against their own countrymen and fought for the crown.
Today it is the voice of a benevolent dictator, and the promise of free cell phones, free health care, free housing, and free money that keeps his loyalist loyal. If he asked them to take up arms against those who oppose him, I have no doubt they would.
With a little super glue I fixed the eagles wing. Aw if it were all only that simple...
She looks like nothing happend, she looks better, but underneath she is left more fragile then before. Her wing forever compromised. Another drop, or being mishandled, and she will once again be broken........
