Are things going OUR way? Well, let's take a serious look at the way Americans waiver in their thinking!
Shortly after 9-11-01, all of the polls showed that President George W. Bush had a 90+% "favorable" rating for the way he was conducting his job. What is it now? Somewhere in the 30% level! Add to that, shortly after 9-11-01, there were American flags flying EVERYWHERE, and there was actually a shortage of them for sale! How many American flags do you see flying nowadays?
Just before the invasions of both Afghanistan and Iraq, the majority of our society was FOR the invasions, and that included most of the DEMOCRAT "representatives" in government! Now? Well, let's just say that the "popularity" of war has dropped off considerably, and many of the Democrats who were FOR the invasions are now "politicizing" along party lines!
While things SEEM to be going OUR way right now, just wait a few months. Everything will calm down, people will forget VA Tech, and the anti-gun organizations (and the news media) will AGAIN start up with their agendas!
My mother passed away when she was 89 years old. Oh, she was sharp as a tack about the past, but her short-term memory was gone! I went to see her the night before she passed away, and she recognized me, but when I went to use the restroom and then returned a few minutes later, she didn't realize that I was already there! Very sad to see her in that condition! It's also very sad that our society lacks short-term memory!
