I do not share your guilt-ridden approach of surrender to the enemy. Obama has definitely made a beachhead of guilt and angst in this country and sadly, many Americans are steeped in the “we’re so bad” mentality. As someone else pointed out, that was exactly the same approach the old USSR was trying to invoke. But Reagan didn’t buy it and neither do I. Our straightening out the issues that face us domestically does not preclude our standing up to the likes of aggressors like Putin.
Gott mit uns, you say.
God is not mocked, I say.
We will both probably live long enough to see which is truth.
