Michelle Obama's comment about finally feeling pride in America, as her husband runs for President, illustrates the narcissism, ignorance and superficiality so rampant in our culture. How could any Princeton educated person make such a thoughtless, insensitive statement?
Perhaps a detour on the campaign trail, let's say, on Memorial Day, to any veteran cemetery might modify her opinion? Maybe, as she looks out on the sea of red, white and blue flags, reverently marking white granite altars stretching out to the horizen, she might be moved to awe, to pride, to humility.
This kind of rhetoric, so common from the Left, belies a mindset utterly undeserving of the White House. The "people's house" exists only because of blood, sweat and gushing self-sacrifice of the virtuous souls, on whose shoulders we stand!
Oh, but her husband is all about fixing our "broken souls," as well.
The paucity of this presidential field! I can only shutter as Ben Franklin's words, "a Republic, if you can keep it," shout a warning in my mind.
