Or, Why a Liberal Arts Education matters:
The Second Coming
Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
Surely some revelation is at hand;
Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
Troubles my sight: somewhere in sands of the desert
A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds.
The darkness drops again; but now I know
That twenty centuries of stony sleep
Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?

That is poetry bitches!
It is impossible to find anywhere in the world where our position or alliances are stronger than they were six years ago!!!
Let's face facts, OK. The Left destroys everything it touches
and then blames the flames on someone else. What is its vision for
the Midle-east and its peoples? None of our business? Islamist's in
control of Libya, Egypt, Yemen, Ethiopia, Somalia, Lebanon, Iran,
Iraq, ISIS, Syria, the Palestinian Territories…
No Problem? Turkey
is moving toward Islamization. We will soon leave Afghanistan.
Pakistan is on the edge. All the other 'Stans' are targeted.
Live and
let live?
When they set their sites on Saudi Arabia, what will we do?
They (Hamas) attack Israel every day, now, finally, Israel fights back. What will we do under Obumble?
Not our problem? They brought it on themselves?
As they (ISIS) purge their
lands of Christians (Mosul), as they subjugate women, as children live in
poverty and fear…Surely we must realize, their fight, is our fight!
As I said before his first election, policies matter. Incompetence in domestic matters, leads to a sluggish economy; incompetence in Foreign Policy- that costs lives!
The Policies of this Administration have failed, and the damage to U.S. interests is becoming too obvious to hide
Buff, out.
