America is perishing in an orgy of self sacrifice, and political correctness. There was a time in our recent history when America was the Shining city upon the hill. The last beacon of Mankind's virtue.

For those who have forgotten, or liberals, who, with their public school education, have never been taught about America's greatness, America is;

The country who has been the most generous in the history of mankind.

The country who has spent it's own blood and treasure to free the oppressed all over the world, asking nothing in return, but a modicum of respect.

The country who has invented most of the word's life changing inventions( the telephone, the car, the radio, the light bulb, the airplane, the computer, the internet, etc.)

The country who has developed and lived by a Constitution of the people, showing the world how to respect man's innate value, and lifting the standard of living of the entire world in the process.

The country who with the help of the British, ended slavery.

The country who showed the value of a man, versus a king, by declaring our independence from the greatest empire on earth, at the time.

The country that won two world wars, ending a fascistic reign of terror.

The country, that freed 26 million people in Iraq form a brutal dictator.

The country, that freed 24 million Afghani's from a terrorist regime mascarading as a religion.

A Country that has never been an oppressor of people, never an imperialist power, never been a conquerer, but a liberator.

The country where anything is possible, where the son of a sharecropper, can become a supreme court justice, where an immigrant landing on our shores with $0.12 in his pocket can become a self made millionaire, where a college dropout can become the wealthiest man in the world.

Yet this is the same country that the libs are telling us can not beat terrorists, with neither flag nor country.

This is the country we are told that can not educate it children.

This is the country that can no longer tell right from wrong.

This is the country that can not access its own energy.

This is the country that can not do anything right according to Michelle Obama and her ilk.

Well, I prefer to believe that Americans can accomplish anything, and will when it is needed.

If we were running out of oil, the incentive would exist to seriously work on a replacement.

If we can educate our neaderthal liberals friends to the fact that we can do for ourselves without government help, then we could have affordable healthcare, low taxes, low oil prices, privatized social security, you see the remedy is the same in each of these issues....

GET GOVERNMENT OUT OF THE WAY!

Exceptionalism presupposes inequality, and to liberals that is intolerable. Above all else, everyone is equal, and that equality is enforced at the least-common-denominator level. Ergo we have an "educational" system that rewards ignorance and penalizes superiority. And now the products of that dumbing down are in charge.

It will only get worse.

Wow, that was a fatalistic reply! LOL

Fatalistic? Perhaps. Realistic? Certainly.

Exceptionalism has become a bad word thanks to the thought/speech-controlling Political Correctness Police.

As Doc said, it means that some people are better than others, that some try harder than others, therefore, deserve more than others. Can't have that. What will Europe say?

That is precisely why we conservatives need to educate the masses as to their history, accomplishments, and possibilities.
