Groundhog Day in America

Quick--who was our Ambassador to Teheran in 1979? I don't remember, either. But I do remember that our embassy was violated and American diplomats held hostage for 444 days. And that fact decided the election of 1980. So, yeah, it matters. An embassy is sovereign U.S. soil. When it is attacked, the United States is attacked. People do care, but, dare I say it? Those who report on the news are not "people"--they are "journalists".

Sad to say, but this election cycle proved that the voters that matter now did not build anything in America, no businesses. They are the Takers. They outnumber us now. They are not the Americans of even 20 years ago. After the destruction of the educational system and turning it into Comsomol HQ, this is the predictable result. I hope John Bohner's recent comments(only hours ago) aren't really what he intends. Although instead of out there campaigning for Romney/Ryan and exposing how the Dogeater has treated those who did not vote for him, he was AWOL until the last day. Revenge is sweet, sayeth the Dogeater. After the truth, the Bill Of Rights will be the next casualty of his War On Us. Just wait for it.

Like I said, you don't know the name of the Teheran ambassadore. His job was to keep peace between Iranian interests and American interests. He failed, -- ya can't win 'em all. But, you can stop whining, and get on with the job. It was heroic of the first guys on Omaha Beach to not whine, forget the photo ops, and get the job done.
Barack Obama won a moderately close victory over Mitt Romney on Tuesday. But oddly, nothing much has changed. The country is still split nearly 50/50. There is still a Democratic president, and an almost identically Democratic Senate at war with an identically Republican House, in a Groundhog Day America.

Obama's win did not really reflect affirmation of his first term, given that the president made only halfhearted efforts to defend Obamacare, the stimulus, huge Keynesian deficits and his attempts to implement cap-and-trade. So if there is a second-term agenda, even Obama supporters don't quite know what it will be.
