America the beautiful, home of the brave, land of the free! This is the America that I love. Unfortunately this is not the America of today. In the early summer of 2008 I awoke from a slumber of ignorant bliss. Not knowing, not caring to an extent, caught up with MY life and all that I believed was important. Over 7 years later and I am wide eyed, aware, disgusted, amazed, concerned, and overall perplexed at the state of my great country.
