Divided country leads to unrest

We truly have a divided nation. That division is along so many lines that civil unrest is a real possibility.

The media helps fuel the division as they talk about red states and blue states and not the United States. The economy is sour and not getting better. People who work hard are tired and many are throwing up their hands and saying: "What's the use?"

Did Merle Haggard have it right when he penned the song: "Are the Good Times Really Over for Good?"

I do not have a secular answer for America. The most reasonable answer is a return to the faith of our forefathers. We may have gone too far in the wrong direction, however. One more time, though: God bless America.-- Macklyn A. Smith Sr., Lawrenceville

Very well written. I have also been saying we are headed to another civil war under Obama and the Liberals. They live and die by the slogan:"divide and conquer." This is just what they are after if you want to open your eyes or not.
