Such as the difference between the current administration's actions regarding the economy and their response to the deliberate attack on our consulate in Libya and the murder of our ambassador and 3 other citizens.
The reason this is appropriate, to say that there is an order of magnitude's difference in those actions, is because the difference is one of such vast import to the American people, that to classify it otherwise would be unthinkable.
An administration may make economic policies that affect thousands, or hundreds of thousands of Americans negatively. In general, we recognize that such things are a matter of suffering through a temporary difference of economic ideologies. We expect that reality will cause such policies to self correct over time. It is not seen as an indication that those who have been granted authority over those policies despise us or account the individual as being of little intrinsic worth.
The response of this administration to the deliberate act of war against us and the murder of our citizens is not a matter of differing ideologies that will self correct. This is a matter of declaring to the world how we, here in America view the value of an individual life. Yes, there are national security and foreign policy concerns attached to this, but the primary purpose our response needs to address is: How do we, as a nation, regard the value of a single human life? In other times, the answer to that question was inseparable from the given response. Devastatingly, that response has changed under this administration. And that is what makes me sick in my very soul.
In my experience of life, America, as a nation has regarded human life in the same way as does the God of the Bible. That is to say; that every human being is intrinsically valuable. The SCOTUS' inappropriate meddling in Roe vs Wade (not to mention their inappropriate ruling-a matter of cowardice) dealt that understanding a severe blow, but it was not a death blow. It was more along the lines of a difficult question regarding the balance between an individual's right to privacy and control of one's own bodily processes and another individual's right to life. (I think that life overrules the other, but clearly, the SCOTUS did not share that opinion.)
This administration's response, to apologize for the exercise of free speech and lament the violence that "wasted the lives of state officials"("or alternatively, because this is a translation of an egyptian source: "wasted lives of agents of the state.") rather than to declare war [until LIBYA surrenders or provides a reason strong enough to prevent us from turning that nation into a glass parking lot (Terrorists did it and we couldn't control them-not believable at this point in the game, but plausible for quelling a declaration of war until the perpetrators were surrendered for judgement)], was a statement to the world and Americans that this administration regards the individual as being of little intrinsic value. The first time I mentioned this statement, I was willing to allow that it might be merely an unfortunate translation. Given the continuing actions of this administration, I no longer think so.
That is the sickness that gnaws at my soul every time I hear from the government now.
- A government consisting of: a sitting POTUS and administration that made that heinous statement to the world(in addition to their surrender of America to the islamic world) ;
- A Congress that does not see fit to impeach the sitting POTUS who would make such a statement (and who also treasonously surrendered and who has committed numerous acts of overt treason against this nation);
- A SCOTUS who will not hear from citizens on legitimate questions of that same POTUS' eligibility to serve, saying that We the People, as individuals, have no standing to see the rule of law upheld.
This cause of that "soul sickness" in ordinary American citizens like myself is what must be addressed before this nation can reclaim it's freedom.
This is what defines mr. obama as unfit to run a turnip patch, much less America. This is a disregard of common human decency so vast as to boggle the mind. This should have been sufficient for impeachment, but it was not.
Until it is, and until the intrinsic value of every individual is once again recognized in America, the blood of Ambassador Stevens, Mr. Smith, Mr. Doherty and Mr. Woods will cry out from the ground against an America that allowed freedom to die with them.
"Even so would he have removed thee out of the strait into a broad place, where there is no straitness; and that which should be set on thy table should be full of fatness.
But thou hast fulfilled the judgment of the wicked: judgment and justice take hold on thee.
Because there is wrath, beware lest he take thee away with his stroke: then a great ransom cannot deliver thee." ~ Job 36:16-18

Forget-me-nots: Christians have been perpetrating Heil Hitler salutes at the UN against Israel the past 60 years - with deafening silence of all Christians. Serial 2-state demands are made in the same land every 50 years against Israel and she is accused of illegally occupying Hebron - because -Ahem! - Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Sarah, Rebbecca and Leah, buried in Hebron, are Muslim Arabs, right?
Forget-me-nots 2: the worst Post-W.W.II crime of all was and remains the corrution of the Balfour - it created the Holocaust with Christian Britain's WHITE PAPER and 23 fictitious regime states which never existed 100 years ago. Guess why Eurabia is happening and Osama - oops I mean Obama, occupied the WH! You guys have surely tied the hands of your Lord. Untie it and restore the Bafour - or leave in a green bag.
