The New America?
Just read the following commentary from John C. Davis, President of the KSRM Radio Group in Alaska. He makes excellent points.
"So…Has America become the land of the special interest and home of the double standard?
"Let’s see….. if we lie to the Congress, it’s a felony and if the Congress lies to us it “just politics”; if a white person dislikes a black person ,they are a racist and if a black dislikes whites, it’s their first amendment right; our government spends millions to rehabilitate criminals and they do almost nothing for the victims; in our public schools you can teach that homosexuality is OK, but you better not use the word God in the process; you can kill a living unborn child, but its wrong to execute a mass murderer.
"We don’t burn books in America, we now just rewrite them; We got rid of the communist and socialist threat by naming them progressives; we are unable to close our border with Mexico but have no problem protecting the 38th parallel in Korea with our young men; if you protest against President Obama’s policies his staff calls you a terrorist, but if you burned an American flag or George Bush in effigy it was your 1st Amendment right.
"You can have pornography on TV or the Internet, but you better not put a nativity scene in a public park during Christmas; we have eliminated all criminals in America, they are now called sick people; we can use a human fetus for medical research, but it’s wrong to use an animal.
"We take money from those who work hard for it and give it to those refuse to work; we all support the Constitution, but only when it supports our political ideology; we still have freedom of speech, but only if we are being political correct; parenting has been replaced with Ritalin and video games; the land of opportunity is now the land of hand outs; the similarity between Hurricane Katrina and gulf oil spill is that neither president did anything worthwhile to help.
"And how do we handle a major crisis today? The government appoints a committee to determine who’s at fault, then threatens them, passes a law, raises our taxes and then tells us the problem is solved so they can get back to their reelection campaign. What has happened to the land of the free and the home of the brave?? Sounds like it is gone and may never return. In retrospect, the voting policy of some to never ever vote for an incumbent now sounds like a pretty good idea. Think About It!!"

For those who say such things make it clear that they are seeking a country of their own. And indeed if they had been thinking of that country from which they went out, they would have had opportunity to return. But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God; for He has prepared a city for them." (Excerpted from Hebrews 11:8-16 NASB)
