West Point Commencement Obama Speech Pax Americana R.I.P.
The commencement
at West Point could be this nation’s watershed
A pull back
for a nation which in time of trouble has usually from the front led
The thin gray
line of cadets now were informed
A new sense
of isolationism may have been reborn
The Eagle is
coming home; its leadership of the free world it now will yield
A new test--
"We must not create more enemies than we take off the battlefield”
War is brutal,
collateral damage on the battlefield will often reign
Wounded or
dead foes and terrorists have parents, sons and daughters number of enemies
should gain
A vacuum is
being created before our very eyes
China,
Russia, jihadists, Iran will rejoice over the Eagle’s demise
The world
will be a more dangerous place if we wait for our allies
Maybe Pax
Americana has now finally set
Foes will
attack without regret
Just as well
as our military is being cut to its very bone
And our VA’s
treatment of our vets is something we cannot condone
China is
passing us as the number one economic power
With our
spending frenzy our children’s and grandchildren’s futures are devoured
