The Dirtiest Campaign of All[1]
As I listen to all of the different opinions this election season from my friends and family, I’m struck by how dirty this particular presidential campaign is. It seems to me that it’s the worst mud-slinging nastiness I can remember. One would think that a couple of criminals were running for president, since nearly all of the campaign rhetoric I hear is nothing but personal attacks of the worst kind ever.
Which totally ignores the real issues bombarding our beleaguered nation.
Our economy is the worst since the Great Depression with nearly as many people out of work now than there was total in the United States at that time. Our military is but a shadow of itself which has emboldened China to grab vast stretches of the South China Sea, North Korea to develop nuclear tipped ICBMs, Iran to kidnap our sailors for huge ransoms, and Russia to threaten shooting down our planes over Syria. Our borders are essentially nonexistent with vicious jihadists, and drug cartel gangs slipping in amongst the poor innocents struggling to get to a better life. Our culture is being rotted out by a lack of Christian morals so destructive that literally no behavior is condemned and no lifestyle too skanky to exist. These things are just the tip of the iceberg that we as a nation must fix and fix quickly if we are to even survive! This is why I don’t care about who said what and when.
All I want to know who is going to fix our nation – and how soon!
