Decline of American Greatness

Image
For the last 72 years I've watched America's greatness decline. Born at the end of World War II, I arrived on the planet at the epoch when America was great. Not just merely great , but the greatest nation on the planet. Without the men and women of America, fascists powers of Germany, Italy and Japan would have subjugated the entire population of the globe. Tom Brokaw's testimonial book, THE GREATEST GENERATION , tells us why that generation witnessed the slow decline of America after WW II;  “A common lament of the World War II generation is the absence today of personal responsibility ”   They married in record numbers and gave birth to another distinctive generation, the Baby Boomers.

He's back. As soon as I opened the dryer door a vortex sucked me into one of those small black holes at the back. I never paid much attention to them before this.

15 Reasons I’ll be Your President By Donald Trump      (…as told to The Meddlesome Priest who self-identified as 'The Donald' and wrote this in a dream) 1.                I’m not a politician. I don’t think, speak or act like one, and that’s the real reason you’ll vote for me. You’re sick of those fools from both parties. So am I. You have been forgotten by them for a long time. When I'm President you will be forgotten no more. Your country will belong to you again not to the Washington politicians. 2.              I’m rich and successful. You want to be rich and successful. I build and I create. You want to build and create.  I’ve created thousands of jobs in my huge real estate empire and I will create more jobs and more economic security for you as president. Bernie and Hillary have never ...
