I told myself and you that when I came back to blog, I'd try to keep my posts mostly personal, family stuff without all the political hub-ub. But as a semi-rational, thinking being it is SO difficult not to SCREAM day and night about the country we love.
What are we doing to America? It makes me so sad to think that my grand babies will not grow up to know the America I knew. Heck, no, it wasn't perfect, but America aimed for perfection. The current state of affairs and the future that looms before us makes me sad and mad and it makes me want to hold someone accountable.
I try to think historically. I try to remember assaults on our freedom. Those assaults have primarily been from outside our country. Americans united and fought and bled and died to overcome any would-be power that tried to make America less. That is not the case today. Our country is going to hell in a hand basket and it's our "elected officials" that are carrying the basket, opening the door and pushing us through it.
