A House Divided Against Itself Cannot Stand

Today Poncho and I will be talking about our thoughts on an interesting quote. “A house divided against itself cannot stand.” By Abraham Lincoln. We believe the quote means that when you work together on any given task you must be united as one or else the whole structure will crumble. When completing an objective you and your team must work together in order to be successful. In reality you and your team are only as strong as your weakest link, so if one person fails then the whole team fails. The United States is a strong nation but slowly becoming more divided. Democrats and Republicans cannot agree on any given idea. They could not agree on the dream act, the national budget, and the war in Afghanistan and Iraq.  A lot of democrats want to pull out our troops and republicans want to stay in there and fix the centralized governments. Our Government came to an understanding. Our Troops are to stay in Afghanistan and continue the fight while, the troops stationed in Iraq will be brought home by late December, just in time for Christmas. The state of our government is debatable; in our opinion as long as our government remains united it is sure to succeed
