Another day passes, more innocents harmed,
But not you or yours? Then your life, it is charmed;
Yes, perhaps you are lucky – you’re not yet alarmed;
While it happens to others, no need to be armed.
Till it Strikes Home

Reminds me of “they came for the Jews and I did not speak out because I’m not a Jew….” Good one.
Thanks bard.
As soon as I read this, I thought of the same period in history as the Bard, but in a slightly different manner: The U.S., England, and France all sat by and watched Hitler enslave nation after nation and slaughter thousands and didn’t bat an eye until it was almost too late. The U.S. was the worst of the bunch, and it took Japan attacking us to finally really wake us up. But this time around, we’ve already been brutally attacked — multiple times actually — and we are still in denial —- at least the powers that be are.
And the thing that’s really scary is that we are sitting here with a totally Republican controlled Congress, yet they still do nothing! It’s like they’re all on some kind of dope.
I know it sounds overly dramatic, but I honestly think that if we don’t put Donald Trump in the white house, freedom as this world knows it is doomed. Not because I believe Trump is so great. But I do believe the Lord has chosen to use him as He has used other leaders in the past to turn the tide of the situation. And it’s not that the U.S. is the only free nation in the world. But I do believe that if we loose our footing completely, the rest of the free nations will topple after us.
Well, I’ve used your site again to make my politically INcorrect feelings clear. I need to go back home and write a post on my own site as well.
Feel free Sandra, I appreciate your comments. It seems to me, looking from this side of the Pacific, that Donald is up against the Clinton / Democrat machine, virtually all of the media, a largely anti-Trump black and Latino voter block, and many of the Republican elite – will be something of a miracle if he can pull it off.
Yes, there’s no question that it will be an absolute miracle if he wins. I am praying — and many other strong believers are praying that the Lord just steps in and makes it happen. The fact that he — as the most “unlikely” candidate in the beginning — has won the nomination and is still going full steam ahead is actually a miracle in itself. So, hopefully, we can count on one more.
