What has the American man lost? His Moral Compass or an essential skill? I ask this as I try to come to terms with Scott McClellan's mea culpa that is getting so much attention today. I wasn't sure how to address it until a friend sent me a link to the "75 Essential Skills Every Man Should Master". Well, right there at #2 was "Tell if someone is lying". Now since cooking bacon comes in at #61 then you can see just how important being able to recognize a lie is.
And there in lies my dilemma. How can so many Americans not have recognized all the lying this administration has done for so long. Did we just have blinders on since 9-11? Or do we deep down just don't care that our soldiers are dying in an unjust war and people are being tortured in all of our names.
On the other hand maybe we have become a country that lacks the essential skills to know right from wrong. We have been spoon fed good tasting bullshit for so long we don't realize it is just a bunch of shit. I think its time for all Americans to come clean and reject all that this administration has sullied in our names. Our country cannot return to a good footing in this world until these criminals are brought to justice. There is no time like now. Tomorrow may be too late.
