Carved into the stone of the Black Hills of South Dakota, four faces look down upon this great nation: George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Thomas Jefferson, and Theodore Roosevelt. Four American heroes, revered, respected, and representing the noblest aspirations of the American people.
The gentleman farmer-turned- general who took down the most powerful army in the world, then shepherded the newborn nation through its infancy.
The folksy woodsman who freed a race of people and ensured the United States would move forward as one.
The inventor, political philosopher, genius whose poetry turned a statement of independence into a declaration more powerful than any weapon against tyranny the world has ever known.
The brash adventurer whose swagger and smarts best captures the can-do American spirit.
This is America’s Mount Rushmore.
Sadly, today’s Left and it…
