So, Who’s to Blame?

“Our Constitution was only made for a moral and religious People. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”

It’s not uncommon anymore for people to not take responsibility for their actions. It’s always someone else’s fault when things go wrong. Back when Bill Clinton was president and under investigation for a number of issues, including sexual indiscretions, Hillary stepped in to defend him, blaming a “vast right-wing conspiracy.”

The response from the current occupant of the White House is to simply follow a long line of blame-shifters. We can understand Joe Biden’s blaming everyone for everything. His former boss, Barack Obama, spent his time in office blaming President George W. Bush when something went wrong!

Honestly, this isn’t just a Democrat problem, although they seem to have really fine-tuned the process. President Donald Trump had a bad habit of doing the same thing. He was willing to take credit for the good things his administration accomplished, but deflected responsibility when something went wrong.

But Biden turned blame-shifting into an art form. He — or whoever handles his teleprompter — is really good at it. For example, claiming the withdrawal from Afghanistan was awesome and there was no other way to pull out (in the middle of the night, without telling our allies). That’s not the military action we’ve watched take out our enemies since 9/11.

I guess that was before racists and white supremacists filled our ranks!

Biden, beginning on Day One, began undoing everything Trump had accomplished with no regard for the consequences. There was no consideration as to whether it was a good policy or a bad one. If Trump did it, it had to go. The White House had Trump Derangement Syndrome on steroids!

So deluded is the Left by the dream of “clean energy” that it is literally destroying the economy that was humming along until COVID hit. We were recovering quickly until Biden decided to step in to “help.” God help us, because right now, He’s the only one who can.

Biden can blame Trump all he wants. But gas and food prices, supply chain shortages, baby formula shortages — all of these and more can’t be blamed on Trump, COVID, or Vladimir Putin. As we say in the South, “That dog don’t hunt!” People are not as stupid as the Left hopes we are. You can dislike Trump all you want, but facts are stubborn things. His personality may have sucked, but his policies were great!

My prayer is that people are finally waking up to the reality of what Biden and his merry band of leftists are doing to this country. The Republican governor of Virginia was not elected by just Republican voters. When former Governor Terry McAwful told soccer moms they had no business sticking their noses into the schools indoctrinating their kids, well, we all saw how that worked out.

America, as a nation, has a character deficiency; our moral compass is broken. We brought this upon ourselves when we let government raise our children. We sowed to the wind and we’re reaping the whirlwind. But it’s not too late. It will take much prayer and courage to stand up to evil. We can no longer stay silent! America needs revival.
