It is so easy for me to mistype the United States Of America as the "Untied" States. However, it is seemingly fitting to call us the Untied States. How we have been tripping over our untied shoelaces as we rush to an uncalled for war in Iraq. How we trip as we try to convince ourselves that we are non-partisan, only to show how untied we really are in Congress, the White House, and the Supreme Court.
And, the recent untied coordination of local, state, Federal, and armed forces during and after the disasters from Hurricane Katrina. How untied we were when we try to say that we just want to get the relief efforts going and stop blaming people out of one side of our mouth and then blame others out of the other side, without even taking a breath.
Maybe when George W. Bush stated that he wanted to be the great "uniter" in running for the President in 2000, he really meant to say he is the great "untie-er, " instead.
