''Our military is still the strongest and best in the world. Using our military power where and when appropriate is not arrogance. It's common sense. Pip-squeak potentates in smaller and weaker countries would like to reduce us to their level by promising to sit down and sing kumbaya.''

A daily overdose of bad news about our economy, military casualties and bad legislation being rushed through Congress by the Democrats would make it easy for someone to be ready to pronounce the death of the United States.
Nothing could be farther from the truth. Despite all of the attention devoted to negative stories about the recession, jobs, the wars and what the liberals are trying to do to this country, we are not dead yet.
The operative word is yet.

Our Constitutions is not broken. It is simply not being enforced, and it is being misinterpreted by some people. The First Amendment to the Constitution says that government cannot impose religion on the people. It does not say that religion cannot be exhibited in government.
Liberals ignore this fact as they try to eliminate religion and faith from our culture. All of our currency is inscribed with "In God We Trust" for a reason. http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=117456
