No More Ostrich Americans

There is nothing noble or patriotic about sitting quietly while we have an entire political party and a president that are, by most measurements, destroying the country and ignoring the Constitution through record debt and deficits, regulations, executive orders, healthcare mandates, perpetually high unemployment, crushing small business and jobs market, gun mandates, etc. 

I see no redeeming value in adopting the Rodney King or ostrich approach to citizenship. The reason we are in the shape we are in as a country is because too many of us have assumed the head-in-the-sand, hear-no-evil-see-no-evil, can’t-we-all-just-get-along stance for too long. I think this country is worth fighting for. How about you? 

I don't agree with Hillary Clinton very often but this 16 second clip says it all!
