It brings a tear to my eye to realize how far we have fallen since "Tear down that wall."

Somewhere, somebody remembers how America got to be a great nation. We fought for independence, we fought for the freedom of the world. But now, according to most of our elected officials, we should just stop fighting and sit on our thumbs. You don't get to be known as "the land of opportunity" because you waited for it to happen. You went out and you fought, sacrificed and died for it. But over the past 10-12 years, this has become the land of the vocal pacifist (how ironic is that). Heck, one of our own bombed the federal building in Oklahoma. And let us not forget 9-11 was not the first attack on the World Trade Center. "Those who do not know history are doomed to repeat it."

Switzerland hasnt fought a war in 200 years and they seem to be doing alright and have given their citizens plenty of opportunites. Same with Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, etc. Those countries are the safest in the world and highly industrialized with similar costs of living.
