Letter from Pennsyltucky
The cause of failed state government in the United States is WhiteManistan.
From a letter published in the Allentown Morning Call:
President Obama could have prevented this shutdown by demonstrating leadership qualities (which he sorely lacks) and by sitting down with the Republican leaders in Congress to try to work out a compromise. Instead, he and the Democratic leaders in the House and Senate (namely, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid), resorted to name-calling directed at the Republicans (“anarchists,” “extortionists,” etc.) rather than trying to work out a compromise …
In hindsight, the American people lost out on the opportunity to have prevented all this controversy had they elected Mitt Romney president. He would have been a uniter instead of a divider, a problem-solver instead of a problem-creator.
If only Mitt Romney, not written but still uttered — the white man — had won, the guy who implemented an equivalent of Obamacare in Massachusetts. (And in Pennsylvania, he lost, too.)
The tribe of WhiteManistan cannot abide two elections in which the majority chose that black man, Barack Obama. It bedevils them, they despise him, make no bones of it and consider everyone who voted for him a traitor and/or a parasite. And so it has steadily used weakness in the design of the US government to undermine government and stage a coup, a rebellion, which — if successful, effectively destroys his presidency.
That’s more than half of what paralyzing the government and threatening to blow the foundations is about. The undisguised malice toward the black man in the White House cannot be separated from the shut down and threats over the debt ceiling. Only terrible people overlook the animus and pretend its over philosophical differences on the role of government in providing health insurance.
And so they have made a unique civil war, one in which the armies don’t fire on each other, the bodies don’t pile up, the separation and secession isn’t geographic north and south, but still in entire states and the difference between a many-colored America and a mono-colored one where others still know their place.
Make no mistake, they were always aching for a Fort Sumter, it has been slowly coming for years. Now it’s here.
There’s no remedy for it until they are completely driven from the field. There’s no shared future American experience that includes the contributions of WhiteManistan, only the toleration of its long goodbye. They know it, too.
