Losing Culture's Wars

By dint of his will, sweat of his brow, his undaunted courage, his devotion to God, and his force of intellect, the white Christian male made this country America and forged the exceptionalism that made us the singular leader of the world. Others certainly contributed, but it was Washington, Jefferson, Franklin, Hamilton, Monroe, Madison, Jackson, Lincoln, Adams, Quincy Adams, and their like that led, that formulated, invented, fought, and thought. The two leaders of this year's graduating class at the United States Military Academy at West Point were both women and this was celebrated in the mainstream media when a still sane nation would mourn this as a tragedy. Lee and Grant, to Eisenhower and MacArthur, to Norman Schwarzkopf, America has followed the strength and wisdom of her male leaders to victory and freedom. Now we are transformed into a denuded gynocracy with Christian belief tamped down and men, particularly white men turned into the butt of every joke. Homer Simpson was just voted the greatest television character of all-time by those vacuous and vapid enough to promote such a wasted exercise. Homer was portrayed in one episode going around the Christmas season to hunt deer- reindeer, if memory serves, at a petting zoo-type farm only to be so incompetent as to have to be rescued with his party by an open homosexual character voiced by John Waters. A commercial for a financial planning service that aired during yesterday's French Open features a white guy having trouble trimming a hedge while standing atop a ladder having a discussion with a fellow walking in the neighborhood who is the embodiment of the voice of reason portrayed by a black man. The retirement goal of the African-American is reasonable- just over one million dollars while the white dreamer is shooting for "a gazillion". Once again, the white male is an unreasoned or unreasonable boob. The loser and target of virtually every storyline in every comedy and drama seems to be the white guy- made mockery and sport. I do not fathom the dead white men who built the country would endorse the concept of a mosque being built in the footprint of 9/11's ground zero, only a country driven to politically correct national suicide would embrace that but that is precisely what New York City's nanny-in-chief Michael Bloomberg is doing. America has become a parody of her greatness, feminized, bastardized, and made eunuchs. The white Christian male is cast as buffoon or villain. Our only hope is that real men emerge to save us even if one of those is Sarah Palin.
