America won on Election Night
By GuestDear Editor:
On Tuesday, November 5, Americans chose normal. They chose logic, merit, common sense, reality. They chose truth as it exists instead of truth as subjective interpretation of one’s own delusion.
For most Americans, their crazy limit was reached in stunning fashion. American values and aspirations prevailed. Government of, by and for the people was restored, if only for four years; natural biology acknowledged, accepted, celebrated; and distinction by race, religion or political affiliation eradicated.
The only path to equality and brotherhood among races is to stop distinguishing, dividing or favoring one group over another. Make race a non-issue, not one of primary consideration. We hear constant accusations that Harris was denied because she is a black woman. False. She was denied because she has proven herself incompetent, and above all, she was not selected by voters but by the party elites — that is the definition of a ‘threat to democracy.’
Americans chose to revive our domestic energy, the cleanest, most regulated, least polluting energy on earth; to stop the import of dirty oil from Russia and Iran. To curtail China from adding scores of highly polluting coal-burning power plants to accommodate our artificially accelerated solar industry, exponentially increasing its carbon emissions while we mindlessly pursue a hopelessly inadequate solar strategy. Imagine the chaos should we ever need to evacuate or respond to an emergency while dependent upon the readiness of solar vehicles. Is that rational?
They voted to cease the enrichment of our adversaries; to stop providing Iran with funds enabling them to attempt the annihilation of Israel, or Russia with funds to continue to attack Ukraine, or China, as it seeks control over the backbone of our existence. They voted to restore our strategic oil reserves, the last resource we have to defend ourselves against attack by our enemies or to assist Americans in times of natural disaster. Biden/Harris have left it almost depleted, leaving us virtually defenseless, and yet Harris stated she would change no policies.
Biden/Harris staged a cowardly retreat from Afghanistan, leaving billions of dollars of military-grade weapons, state-of-the-art military aircraft, computers, etc., not to mention the humanity that was forsaken. Harris would change nothing. Biden/Harris provided Ukraine with billions to protect their border but leave our own open to throngs of criminal illegal aliens who deprive our own citizens of vital resources and commit heinous crimes. When confronted with the fact that, as border czar she’d never been to the border, Harris arrogantly quipped, “I’ve never been to Europe either.”
Harris didn’t lose because she’s a black woman, but because she is dangerously inept — a fatal shortcoming that invites disaster. Americans saw that shortcoming; they did not consider her sex, nor her color, but her profound incompetence. To suggest that as thinking people we are simply biased and discriminatory, that we lack the intelligence to distinguish whether a candidate has the capability to make decisions for the country is both outrageous, and the reason Democrats lost.
