When America Ceases To Be Good America is great because she is good. If America ceases to be good, America will cease to be great.
Alexis de Tocqueville ... Is America a Good Nation? Is she a Great Nation? Let's examine the evidence ... recently we went to war with Iraq and Afghanistan. Iraq had nothing to do with 9-11. Iraq had no Weapons of Mass Destruction and no ties with Al Qaeda. In fact they were enemies. All of this was known before the invasion.

The reason why on 9/11 I didn't believe a damn thing they said 9/11 was over six years after the Oklahoma City bombing. We had plenty of time to get the 'alternative' viewpoints ... I certainly remember Retired Brigadier Gen. USAF, Benton K. Partin ... told his side of the OK City 'terrorist' attack and cover up to anyone who would listen ...
