Perhaps it is altogether fitting that America's death spiral should be piloted by a collection of terrified old men, quaking from fear in their pajamas, as the nation spirals down into the graveyard of history.
The "greatest deliberative body in the world," led by Harry Reid and his minority of 44 Democrats, successfully scuttled the huge Republican victory of 2014, in which we gave them 54 seats, and they gave us Mitch McConnell.
Perhaps you are like me and would have preferred nuclear annihilation while the nation stood for human freedom and dignity in the world? But it is not to be. Here's why:
- Institutionalized treason. What else can you call Hillary Clinton's State Department, the Benghazi lies that began before our soldiers were even dead and the Clinton Foundation's overflowing gifts from foreign governments so Hillary's campaign
coffincoffers could be filled to overflowing? Or maybe it's a president who can't decide if he's Muslim or Christian, or whether the constitution is living or dead. - A forced
indoctrinationeducational system run by the teachers' unions, for the administrators, and let the parents and children be damned (which they now are). Three generations never learned that the Soviet Union collapsed because equality of outcome can't be produced. A dumbed down learning system created so the lazy can succeed poisons the economic well for future generations. Just ask the one still living at home with their parents after college. Looking after the less fortunate is the function of churches, religious good works and charitable foundations. - A Christian church that has grown tired of waiting for its betrothed's return has no interest in the planned wedding, and now seeks its joy from union with the flesh, the devil and the world. But don't take my word for it:
"I know you inside and out, and find little to my liking. You're not cold, you're not hot – far better to be either cold or hot! You're stale. You're stagnant. You make me want to vomit. You brag, 'I'm rich, I've got it made, I need nothing from anyone,' oblivious that in fact you're a pitiful, blind beggar, threadbare and homeless." – Revelation 3:17 (The Message)
Like Air France Flight 447 that encountered turbulence and disappeared six years ago, crashing into the Atlantic and killing all aboard, the crew we elected to give us safe passage through the turbulent storms of the next two years and fly us high over dark waters of the grave doesn't know which end is up. America has an insane executive who believes he is no longer bound by the Constitution, simply because no adverse consequences attend to him for using that precious document as toilet paper. The Senate advises and concurs – promising to fund America's destruction by our self-appointed king.

It is indeed frightening to think that John Boehner, as speaker of the House, is America's last chance to escape the graveyard spiral, before the nation is buried in its own crater and we take the West to our grave with us. He has the power of the purse and can end the madness – but does he have the courage?
Regarding the inscription on the stone tablet to be placed above our grave, this little bit of history from an anonymous writer in the Pennsylvania Journal, December 1775, carried the day:
The rattlesnake also has sharp eyes, and "may therefore be esteemed an emblem of vigilance." Furthermore,
"She never begins an attack, nor, when once engaged, ever surrenders: She is therefore an emblem of magnanimity and true courage. ... she never wounds 'till she has generously given notice, even to her enemy, and cautioned him against the danger of treading on her."
The markings on our tombstone will be divinely simple, and the inscriber once well-known to us. He brought America into the world, and I suppose as the attending physician at the end of her life it is most fitting that he see us out:
"Don't tread on me." – Jesus Christ
