[RightWire] Superman Renounces U.S. Citizenship?

In the 900th issue of the comic strip created in 1938, Superman renounces his American citizenship. Superman declares, "I intend to speak before the United Nations tomorrow and inform them that I am renouncing my U.S. citizenship…I'm tired of having my actions construed as instruments of U.S. policy." If his actions are misunderstood, why doesn't he explain himself, rather than pouting? That doesn't sound like the Man of Steel. It sounds more like the Man of Plastic − softer and more susceptible to pressure.

As if this weren't enough, Superman adds, "Truth, justice, and the American way − it's not enough anymore." Really? Enough for what? A U.N. that knows only how to shuffle papers and appoint bloodthirsty tyrannies like Syria to the "Human Rights" Council? Enough for whom? Globalists who owe allegiance to nothing but their own wealth and power? A president who sees nothing exceptional about the nation that saw something exceptional in him?

Apparently what Superman objects to is the American way, and not truth or justice. But these qualities are related. If we substitute leftism for the American way, truth and justice are also in jeopardy.

For truth, leftists substitute politically correct speech. We can't even mention the fact that most terrorism today is committed by extremist Muslims. To hear the leftist media tell it, we should be equally concerned with Orthodox Jews with beards and black hats, and with Evangelicals coming from Bible-study classes. Leftists value their agenda over truth. Or rather, they believe that truth is whatever furthers their agenda....News Item
