The REAL Commitment to America

We would all like for America to be leading the world again—economically, spiritually, morally, militarily, and in decency, honor, and truth. We did that for a few centuries: the “shining city upon a hill.” And while millions of Americans still cherish these virtues and want to (excuse me, Joe) make America great again, in other words, make America a country we can truly be proud of and that others can look up to, it sometimes seems that our leaders are abdicating that role and handing it over to… Italy? Have you read the Republicans’ “Commitment to America”? I went over to the website and got lost. Click this, link here, read gobbledygook. I’m sure there is a lot of good, commendable stuff in it, but too many Americans can’t read—period— and they certainly aren’t going to take the time to wade through that mess the Republicans posted. I didn’t, and I probably would agree with most of it. Why couldn’t McCarthy keep it simple, short, readable, and digestible…something quick, strong, pithy, that the lowest-IQ Americans (i.e., Democrats) can even understand. Something that clearly delineates the difference between Republicans and Democrats.
