We will have saved ourselves ... only to have lost ourselves.

It depends on what "ourselves" means. The America which is the America of the past decade or so is ended like it or not. Liberal, politically-correct, squishy America is destroyed, it may not realize it yet but that America cannot win this war. If America is to survive, it will be the former version or even something else.

**** Liberal, politically-correct, squishy America is destroyed,****

I go back and forth on this. Yes, on the surface, it would seem so. But the greater, monumentally so, evil of geo-political PC seems more entrenched than ever. Indeed not only is it entrenched it seems supreme.

Very true .... I have made note that a new generation is following behind us ... one that will have been nurtured by the Patriotism and commitment which has swept through large portions of our land since Sept. 11th ...

I do not think we will see again a monopoly of squishy liberals whose idea of patriotism is to quickly write a sappy song and then sing it under protective cover ...

Pearl Harbor was many things ... but it wasn't a wake-up call to morality and Patriotism ... most of them were awake, back then ... only now are we being re-awakened ...

As far as I can tell, the PC crowd is now well out of favor with the mainstream since 9/11.

It's ironic - the terrorists meant to destroy America. They may well have ended up saving America.
