Love of Country.mp3

00:00:03 I still remember.
00:00:02 Going to the lake as a child.
00:00:05 Playing with sparklers and watching an absolute wonder.
00:00:11 The Rockets red flare.
00:00:14 The bombs bursting in the air and feeling so much pride in this land of my family and gratitude.
00:00:21 Gratitude for the freedom that had been handed down to me because I loved my country.
00:00:29 And I was a good boy.
00:00:32 I remember pledging.
00:00:33 My allegiance to the Stars and Stripes.
00:00:36 The red white.
00:00:37 And Blue Flag of my ancestors home.
00:00:40 The Republic for which it stood, 1 nation under God.
00:00:48 For Liberty and justice for all.
00:00:52 Because I loved my country.
00:00:55 And I was a good boy.
00:00:58 When I turned 18.
00:01:00 I didn't fear fulfilling my obligation to my people by signing up for the draft, as my mother cried quietly.
00:01:08 Memories of wars that had destroyed.
00:01:10 People close to her, still fresh in her.
00:01:12 Mind, but I felt pride.
00:01:17 Because I loved my country and I was a good boy when I watched the towers in New York fall live on television in my living room, I was transfixed by the images.
00:01:25 Two here in New York, there has been a plan.
00:01:31 You're looking at the center.
00:01:32 I was frozen, unable to even.
00:01:33 We understand that.
00:01:36 Call into my place of employment to explain my absence.
00:01:39 It's a commercial aircraft.
00:01:41 I watched in horror.
00:01:42 Private aircraft, we have more data.
00:01:43 And I cried because I loved my country.
00:01:44 How many were on board?
00:01:47 The injuries are right now we are we have, I understand an eyewitness.
00:01:48 And I was a good boy when I saw the troops in Baghdad tearing down the statue of Saddam.
00:01:56 I cursed his name and I smiled A bitter smile because I loved my country.
00:02:04 And I was a.
00:02:05 Good boy.
00:02:07 Later, when friends of mine began coming back from the Middle East in caskets.
00:02:13 I went to their funerals.
00:02:16 I cried with their mothers.
00:02:18 And I marveled at their bravery.
00:02:21 Because I love my country.
00:02:24 I was a good boy.
00:02:26 When Obama was elected president and I knew.
00:02:29 Because of what we did on this set in this.
00:02:30 He was a communist with the desire to transform my country, to remake it in his image.
00:02:40 I didn't ride in the streets because.
00:02:42 I had faith.
00:02:43 In democracy, I told myself.
00:02:46 There was nothing he could.
00:02:48 Do that couldn't be undone.
00:02:51 Through peaceful means.
00:02:53 Because I loved my country.
00:02:56 And I was a good boy.
00:02:59 I wanted to preserve the freedoms that were my responsibility to safeguard for my children.
00:03:05 I moved to our nation's capital and I worked tirelessly to inform people of the importance.
00:03:11 Of free speech and liberty.
00:03:14 Because I loved my country.
00:03:17 And I was a good boy.
00:03:19 When I first began to notice that the newcomers to the country I loved so much seemed resistant to the ideals of my forefathers, I told myself that it was my responsibility to explain it in a way that they could understand.
00:03:36 America wasn't the people, after all.
00:03:38 It was a set of ideas.
00:03:42 When nobody seemed to listen and our freedoms continued to evaporate, I kept faith that we just needed to be patient and do better.
00:03:53 I shoved down that voice within.
00:03:56 That suggested that.
00:03:58 Maybe these people.
00:04:00 Weren't people that?
00:04:01 Wanted the same thing and just had misguided ways of achieving these shared goals.
00:04:08 That I had.
00:04:10 But maybe they wanted something else entirely.
00:04:14 But I quieted that voice.
00:04:17 Because I loved my country.
00:04:19 And I was a good boy.
00:04:22 And when I began to realize that conservatives had failed to conserve anything from the lives of millions of unborn children.
00:04:32 To the sanctity of marriage and the security of our porters, I soldiered on.
00:04:40 Because they were the lesser of two evils.
00:04:44 And I loved my country.
00:04:44 Like this, we can't risk partisan victory posturing.
00:04:46 I was a good boy.
00:04:48 Our leaders have to reach across the aisle.
00:04:50 When it looked as though my country was in danger of being ruled over by a woman who I knew shouldn't even be walking the streets.
00:04:58 That mobs of these new Americans that had no intention of preserving what my blood had built but instead wished to suck that blood like parasites until they grew fat and unruly and then angry and jealous of my pedigree and birthright.
00:05:15 Feverishly seeking to.
00:05:16 Erase MyHeritage. I continue to have faith people would see that things had gone awry.
00:05:25 They'd gone too far if the ship capsized, we would all drown.
00:05:31 And I loved my country.
00:05:34 And I was a good boy.
00:05:37 When a strongman appeared out of the chaos had told me that he understood and shared my terror.
00:05:40 And a vote for me, it's really and truly a vote for.
00:05:44 You. That's what it is.
00:05:46 When he made big.
00:05:47 Promises that if we made the impossible happen, if we focused all of our time and energy into giving him the power to roll things back, that.
00:05:56 He would make America great again.
00:05:58 You're voting to believe in yourself.
00:05:59 That if I could only endure this ridicule, the social and economic consequences of supporting our shared vision to save this nation for the first time in my lifetime, millions of people would finally.
00:06:10 We are going to make America want see again.
00:06:14 Be putting America first.
00:06:16 Strong again.
00:06:17 The rest of the world would no longer be our burden to carry on our backs into prosperity.
00:06:23 This suicidal parasitism would end.
00:06:27 I put everything I had into ensuring that these promises could be fulfilled.
00:06:33 To the point of recklessness and personal ruin.
00:06:38 Because I loved my country and I was.
00:06:40 We are going to make America great again.
00:06:41 A good boy.
00:06:44 And now as I.
00:06:46 Begin to see for the first time in my life how the world really works.
00:06:50 An awakening that's not limited just to me.
00:06:52 No, no.
00:06:53 United States and Israel has never.
00:06:55 Patriots everywhere who made this same barge?
00:06:56 Bit stronger.
00:06:59 Your love is.
00:06:59 Who are now also beginning to understand with the sinking feeling, standing alone on the frozen tundra of lies and deception, having thrown everything that was theirs into the furnace that needed perpetual feeding to make this impossible dream the American dream.
00:07:08 I want.
00:07:13 Come into our country.
00:07:19 A reality believing that this time it would be different because they.
00:07:19 For the largest numbers ever.
00:07:25 Had to believe.
00:07:27 The Jews have endured terrible.
00:07:28 Standing there naked and shivering as the sun slowly set on a nation that no longer existed.
00:07:36 But they hoped they could resuscitate it or raise it from the dead, like the God this country has forgotten whose name is printed on every coin in the land.
00:07:38 You're not coming in.
00:07:47 And what once?
00:07:48 Seemed like a tribute, but now a symbol of mockery, for this currency has no value.
00:07:55 And it's this God.
00:07:57 Who was blasphemed?
00:07:59 On the instruments of our slavery that we whisper our sins to and ask for strength in this desperate time.
00:08:08 As we want.
00:08:10 Will it take another flood to purge the virus that saturates the world and make a sacred promise that we are willing to ride those waves because we love our country?
00:08:25 And we are dangerous men.
00:08:28 This country was founded by dangerous men.
00:08:37 The moment the people in this country cease to be dangerous men, they're going to be the day we cease to have a country.
