Restoring America's shine will take time

President Reagan referred to America as "A shining city on the hill."

As I watch the current occupant of the White House and today's Republican Party's treatment of refugees, and the baldfaced efforts at voter suppression, and the concerted efforts of the Republican Party to remove health care from 20 million people 20 or 30 separate times with no replacement but lots of promises, I begin to wonder.

Just how many buckets of Tarn-X is it going to take to get rid of the tarnish on that vision of America?

I remember when the Ten Commandments were in effect seven days a week; not just Sunday morning.
