We are brave, industrious, proud, helpful to a fault, giving, loving, true blue, dependable, smart and good. We care about those in need. We believe in stepping up. The phrase; “These Colors Never Run” is true. We never give up. The only reason we have ever 'lost' a fight can be directly attributed to Liberal wusses pushing a turn tail and run agenda of concession and appeasement.
The richest nation in the world. The most powerful nation in the world. The most diverse nation in the world. The most formidable Military presence the world has ever known. Rome and it's much vaunted legions would be humbled by our military.
Rome had nothing on the U.S. Marines. The greatest armada ever put to sea pales in comparison to the U.S. Navy. No air force has even come close to the elite U.S. Air Force and the U.S. Army has proven to the world, they can not be stopped. Our Coast Guard is without peer. Add to that the Border Patrol, the Texas Rangers and the US Marshals Service and you can see what I mean.
The CIA, FBI, NSA and a whole raft of other acronyms known the world over and feared the world over give ample cause for the world to be jealous and hateful. Because of who we are, if we don't get our way, it is only because we allow it. Not because the world desires it. That is why we are feared and hated.
Americana can be found in every corner of the world. Whether you are referring to McDonald's or Levi's etc. Cowboys and Western paraphernalia can be found or is desired all over the world including China. 5 years ago, I'm in a chat with a fellow at an Internet cafe in Mainland China and we discuss many things. What stood out for me was what he desired most in the world, A Stetson hat and a pair of Cowboy boots. I never saw that coming.
From the beginning, this country has been a force to be reckoned with, admired and revered throughout the world. Till one day, the world began to covet what we had.
That is the day the world began hating America the Beautiful. That brings us to today. Pure and simple, the world is jealous. End of story.
So today, I am once again thankful to live in the greatest nation on Earth. I am thankful for the protections afforded to me and for the peace and tranquility I have enjoyed because of those who have put themselves in harms way, since the beginning, to make it so.
Happy Thanksgiving.
