I was talking with my wife and son today on Father's Day, and I admitted that I never before appreciated my country...

...as much as I do now that we have lost it to an idiot buffoon.

Like Taj Mahal sang, "You don't miss your water, until your well runs dry."

I should have appreciated a great country when it was great.

It has promised to become great, but so far failed to make good. However it is currently much worse than it had been in many areas.
