Can America Be Fixed?

Without mercy we have spilled the blood of our heroes upon our purple mountains majesty and amber waves of grain. The spirits of the great men who once gave life, love, and family for the ideal of freedom no longer roam this wasteland of hypocrisy they once called home. In the process of our lethargic behavior towards our leaders and their everlasting quest for world domination and all other things foul, we have disrespected and destroyed the hard work and commitment displayed by our forefathers so many years ago.

Nothing short of revolution could redeem our souls at this point. How can we call ourselves Americans and live under tyranny? Do we no longer love freedom enough to fight for it? Submission comes all too easy for those who lose their will too fight, remember that the next time a politician lies on television or a soldier dies in Iraq. The more it happens, the less we say about it, until all of a sudden our voice dies out all together. When that happens, everything else dies too.

Our great eagle is wounded, folks, stuck in the heart with an oil soaked spear. The vultures have smelt blood and begun to circle. This nation has reached a critical point in its young life. It is time to prove our worth. We are either about to see our darkest days or our finest hour. The burden to choose which path we take lies upon the people.

Action is needed, but it is sure that violence won’t work. We are not as stupid as the rest of the world thinks we are. We may be crude, ungraceful, and a tad overbearing, but we are not stupid. However self important it may sound, we are the ham in the sandwich of our society. Without us, this world is nothing but bread and mayo. Maybe some lettuce.

As much as no one would like to admit it, the fate of the world lies in our hands. If you do not believe that, just imagine what would happen if we gave Mr. Bush free reign to attack whoever he wants. It would be a bloodbath of epic proportions. No one would be safe, not even the white nations.

The real question is what do we do now? How do we pull ourselves out of this hole that has been dug? How can we win this most important battle that may never even be fought?

Don’t ask me, I’m just a writer for a small website. It is not my job to have the answers; it is my job to have the questions. The burden of answering them falls upon the readers.

So, let’s have it, great commenters of ShoutWire. Not just the Americans, but all the people of the world. Let’s hear ideas to fix things. Is it possible that a discussion on a social bookmark website could accomplish what congress can not?

Stranger things have gone down.
