One of the holes in my training for adulthood was a clear understanding of the condition called nausea, defined by Wikopedia as ” a sensation of unease and discomfort in the upper stomach accompanied by an involuntary urge to vomit” . With apologies to my legions of female readers, I always assumed it was a female condition utilized to fend off the advances of amorous young men. Now that I’ve watched the John Kerry apology tour with guest star James Taylor singing “You’ve Got A Friend”, I get it. After the second viewing, I had that sense of unease and discomfort, and actually regurgitated a small portion of my dinner.
Young people my son’s age (22) tend to have less allegiance and love for our nation and its purpose in the world. I have to admit that I feel their pain, particularly after the pathetic performance of the Emperor’s administration in the wake of the in-your-face attacks in Paris, followed by a most sappy, drively, apologetic performance by our Secretary of State today. Remember folks, he could have been our President. WHAT THE HECK !
