No false unity.
I often like what Ralph Peters says, but he gets it wrong when he calls on America to just unite behind the winner of the election for the sake of unity. (*) Yet, I fervently agree that America needs unity.
We should not sacrifice what is vital for the sake of a brief moment of unity. Our national survival is not foreseeably threatened within the next couple of years. We will make it at least that far.
What America most needs is true unity. Absolutely required for true unity is excellent political leadership, a trait not possessed by Messers. Bush or Kerry.
There will be no false unity. There will be hell to pay for every mistake by tomorrow’s electoral winner. That will be the only way to keep this bunch on the right course.
