Unity

There are times when our nation unifies around a cause or a situation. Usually for a natural disaster or a military success. Obviously Bin Laden's death has sparked one of these rare moments. It is easy to unify under these circumstances but in reality, these examples mean nothing. They are poppycock, feel good, transient moments without any long term staying power. How about this....unity of purpose for job creation, unity of purpose around the increasingly troubling gap between rich and poor, unity of purpose around bringing troops out of harms way, unity of purpose on really working to fix what is broken. I fear, and it is already happening, that the recent feel good moment is about to pass and we are back to the divisive and unproductive political and social intransigence that so negatively affects our culture and our future. We really haven't seen the kind of unity of spirit and purpose that we truly need. Where are you Americans for reason and truth?
