Angered

Last night, I watched a show on tv that made me angry. I'm not just talking kind of angry or annoyed. I'm talking yelling-at-the-tv angry.

Actually, the last couple of times I've watched this particular show, by the time I turn the tv off, I'm sure my blood pressure is high and my cortisol level is through the roof.

Glenn Beck, at 5 pm on weeknights, gives Fox viewers something to think about, and something to get angry about. He has helped to expose corruption and Progressivism in our not so distant past administrations and also in the present one. I'm angry about what the politicians and the movers and shakers in this country who aren't politicians, are doing to my country. It appalls me to hear that they would be so self-serving that they would knowingly tear down the pillars that have made this country great.

They are destroying our economy. On purpose. They are printing more money instead of tightening their belts and spending less.

They are shutting off our natural resources. On purpose. President Obama stopped all oil-drilling in the Gulf of Mexico. "Don't waste a crisis." It seems that I've heard that somewhere before.

They have ensured that the truth about our Founding Fathers has been left out of our public schools' textbooks. On purpose.

Did you know that? Did you know that for about a hundred years Progressives have been working to overtake our country with their ideas? Did you know there were many black Americans who fought for freedom in the American Revolution, including Peter Salem who was the true hero of the Battle of Bunker Hill? Were you taught that in school?

They have told us that we are too stupid to understand all of their complicated, thousand-page laws and policies, and that we should leave the handling of such things to the intelligent, governing elite. OH NO YOU DIDN'T!

But they did. Thus, the yelling at the tv.

Now, I willingly admit that I do not know full details about all of these issues, and I know they can't be understood fully just by watching a couple of tv shows. Some of these people may actually be doing what they think is best for the country, but if they do think that, I'd like to hear their reasoning - it sure doesn't make sense to me in the light of history!

What I do know is that the political climate of the United States of America is not where it should be. We need to take back our country before it's too late. Those who would work to that end, myself included, must understand from the beginning that it will not be an easy thing. We've got to be researching, investigating, reading to inform ourselves. But we must begin on our knees, asking God, the Divine Providence who oversaw the dawn of our nation, to oversee this, America's"Re-Founding," to borrow Glenn Beck's phrase.

I don't know exactly what that would look like, but oh, how I would love to be used by God to that end!
