Letter to the editor: A once-great nation must tackle many problems
America has been redefined by a new language and altered vocabulary.
E Plunder Us Unum
Pursuit of Pleasure
Confounding Principles
Dollar Diplomacy
Gerrymandering
One Nation Under Clod
In Clod We Trust
Unholy Matrimony
Land of the Expensive
Mediocracy of Virtue and Talent
Sub Prime and Gomorrah
We The People to Me The People
From Physical Distancing to Mental Distancing
Myself and My Posterior
Gone with the WIND — Wickedness, Infidelity, Narcotic Obsession, Demoralizing Depravity, Filthy Language, cursing, cursing, cursing
Freedom of Religion to Freedom From Religion
Liberty and justice for all (who can afford it)
Capitolism — the Seamless union of Capital and Capitol to the total exclusion of the People
Factions speak louder than words.
FEMA —Filthy Language, Evil Entertainment of Visual Immorality, language with cursing, cursing, cursing
If you are not satisfied with your comprehension of this new terminology, please consult your local Fictionary.
How do we rescue our nation from total physical and moral collapse? Reinstate the Ten Commandments and adopt the “Bill of Responsibilities,” the embodiment of what made America great and what shall restore this Republic to the Great Nation that we celebrate.
