Down for the struggle

..."But before I would see it dishonored I would tear it from its place, to be set on the perilous ridge of battle as a sign around which her bravest and best shall meet the harvest home of death."

WHO knows that this was Jefferson Davis speaking about the star of Mississippi on the day before Lincoln's election, 1861. Did Davis as President of the Confederacy get down for the 4 year struggle? Yes,indeed. His life,liberty and ideals were on the line even though they included the evil preservation of the institution of slavery.

Davis uses a Biblical allusion to the 'harvest home' proving we were a Christian nation before the Civil War even though he ignored the tenants of Christianity regarding human rights. But are we still? Black politicians and activists who claim to be Christian including our President, use the historical fact of slavery to distort and pervert present conditions in America. Victories are ignored; grievances constitute their agenda. Why? What struggle are they down for other than the fight to re-create a racist country again? This is not politically correct. This is anti-Christian. Victimization is not a reality. Their alienation is just a state of mind. Liberalism and socialism will not improve our beloved land. The chip on Obama's shoulder metastasizes at an alarming rate.

We fought the Civil War for this?
