It was posted for the benefit of those who have the maturity to look in the mirror and ask themselves if they have been building a nation or tearing it down. The responses of those committed to being leftwing extremists have been to criticize the article as if by attacking those who point out their flaws they will be exonerated. It is also a reminder to people who may be tempted to live to a lower standard after witnessing the total dishonor of the left for the last ten years.

If you overlay it on the end of the Clinton term you clearly see that enforcing the Constitutional ban on Presidential misdeeds was the right thing to do for honor's sake, but that it cost America standing in the world. You also see that the propaganda campaign lead by Hillary against the investigation team was both dishonorable and hurt the nation. Hillary's actions were those of a person willing to cast aside honor in the pursuit of power. It appears nothing has changed but how she attempts to portray her stripes.
