In a speech receiving the Liberty Medal US Senator John McCain (RINO-AZ) said, “We live in a land made of ideals, not blood and soil. “ and he opined that the US needs to lead the world. On the other hand, he says we should be globalists because he also said, “"To fear the world we have organized and led for three-quarters of a century, to abandon the ideals we have advanced around the globe, to refuse the obligations of international leadership and our duty to remain 'the last best hope of earth' for the sake of some half-baked, spurious nationalism cooked up by people who would rather find scapegoats than solve problems is as unpatriotic as an attachment to any other tired dogma of the past that Americans consigned to the ash heap of history.”
My grandfather, my father and his brothers, our cousins our nephews, etc. who served in WWI, WWII, Korea, Viet Nam, etc. did not do it to protect the world but for the nation. My friends who served in Iraq and Afghanistan did it to protect their families, the nation, our homes and our way of life. I imagine there are some who did it to benefit the world first, but other than John McCain I know of no one else. Half-baked spurious nationalism indeed.
I give him his honor and due for being a POW. In my mind, he has soiled that sacrifice by lying to get elected and has downright abdicated honor by advancing globalism that benefits the wealthy and oppresses the masses.
But then, I’m just a little guy. What do I know? I am one of the unwashed masses with no standing and even less understanding. An idiot peckerwood that stands for the national anthem and recites the pledge of allegiance.
Maybe you guys can explain it to me.
