Poem
IV. And when they speak of America it’s a sputtering wall of hate, the great country that shelters them they can never appreciate. They point to all its past mistakes, taken out of context of time, ignore others who did much, much worse, try to make us ‘uniquely’ malign. Forgetting that we fought those ills, and ran them all done, one by one, That we’ve brought people more liberty that ever before has been done. They can’t look to our history without finding reasons to hurt, but then cuddle up to China, who’s orders of magnitude worse. They look at free people’s errors as an unforgivable sin, then excuse radical Islam, and the horrors they do to women. They hate the freedom and free trade, and say that it hurts all the poor, yet it’s lifted standards of life for tens of millions and more. The ideas that we have built here, all the freedom and the success, seem to annoy professors more then genocidal socialists! Perhaps they think, being so ‘smart,’ that they should be running the show, that the rest of us aren’t fit to lead, they’re ‘above’ us, and ‘in the know.’ Self-proclaim aristocracy in a nation with no time for that, so the ideas that we value they decry as selfish and bad. All our liberties mean less to them then their egos and points of view, they’d kill the goose and the golden egg, your professors are lying to you.
