We aren't fighting...
and that's just the problem. Our freedoms are slowly being taken away by our government, and we sit back and let it happen. Some by not voting. Others by loosing sight of the big picture while focusing on single "hot" issues (like abortion) so that they don't recognize all the other little things they are voting for in addition to their pet issue. Thinks like who gets taxed, and for what. Things like whether people or corporations have more rights.
A government can only stand as long as the people support it. A leader (no matter how evil or dictatorial) can only lead as long as people follow.

This is a timely and interesting post!
We really should do more at home, to heal our own hurts, and then go save the world-- if we still think it needs us to do that.. We need to be aware, but not necessarily interfering in the parts of the world that don't look, think, or believe like Americans. We need to read The Ugly American again...
