If at first you don’t succeed, try making failure your goal. That’s basically what the President and our illustrious elected politicians have set as their goal — FAILURE! Since when have we not been able to accomplish whatever we set out to do? It’s very apparent that “the powers that be” are not interested in accomplishing the task at hand and what the majority of Americans demand be accomplished — which is securing our borders.

Pat Buchanan brilliantly points out the fact that we, as Americans, have gone above and beyond in exhibiting our potential to accomplish whatever the task may be, no matter how difficult. I’m appalled that our elected leaders WILL NOT do what we’ve put them in office to do — defend this great country of ours! They continue to deny us secure borders in spite of our overwhelming numbers demanding that they do so.

This reminds me of an article I read earlier on this website, The Myth of Democracy — Popular Vote, with regard to voting and how the process is not so democratic as we’d like to believe it to be. It makes one seriously question whether we indeed have a voice and a vote in our government or whether it is merely smoke and mirrors, a fraud??

Here’s the bottom line as noted by Pat Buchanan:

“Given the manifest will of the people that this invasion from the south be halted and rolled back, the 2008 election is shaping up as yet further confirmation that American democracy is a fraud.”

Very frightening indeed! We all need to stop talking about what’s wrong with America and start doing something about it before it’s too late.

Read the entire article if you have time. Buchanan documents the amazing ability of our nation to accomplish desired goals:

Katrina Nation
by Patrick J. Buchanan

When Woodrow Wilson went to Congress to ask for a declaration of war in 1917, the U.S. Army was ranked 17th in the world, behind Portugal.

On Armistice Day, 19 months later, there were 2 million doughboys in France, where they had helped to break the back of Gen. Ludendorff’s theretofore invincible army in its final offensive, and 2 million more in the United States ready to march on Berlin.

No other nation could have done that.

After Japan attacked Pearl Harbor in 1941, FDR demanded that a disarmed America “build 50,000 planes” — a seemingly impossible number, but one America met and exceeded.

Starting from scratch in 1941, the Manhattan Project at Oak Ridge and Los Alamos designed, built, tested and detonated three atomic bombs by August 1945 to end the war.

After Sputnik humiliated America, Wernher Von Braun and the boys at Redstone Arsenal had a satellite up in three months. In 1961, JFK declared we were going to the moon and would be there before the decade was out. Cynics scoffed. This writer was at Canaveral to watch Apollo 11 lift off in the summer of 1969.

Whatever became of that can-do nation?….

If we could put men on the moon in a scant eight years, why can we not secure our borders?
