WHAT'S WRONG WITH SOCIALISM, MR. PRESIDENT? POST 122

Hi,

Time to celebrate--we have two candidates for President WHOM WE ARE PRIVILEGED TO CHOOSE BY VOTING!!!!!!!A PRIVILEGE NOT ALLOWED IN A LARGE PORTION OF THE WORLD!!!!!!!!! YOU KNOW MY FEELINGS ABOUT THIS ELECTION:

ANY VOTE AGAINST OBAMA AND HIS SOCIALISM IS A GOOD VOTE!!!!!

I heard awhile back that Obama asked someone 'WHAT'S SO BAD ABOUT SOCIALISM?" HERE'S YOUR ANSWER MR. PRESIDENT. THE WORD SOCIALISM IS A PSYCHOLINQUISTIC TERM FOR COMMUNISM AS IS THE WORD "PROGRESSIVE" or progressivism WHEN USED BY YOUR POLITICAL PARTY AND THOSE PANDERING TO IT. COMMUNISM OPPOSES THE FREEDOM OF OUR REPUBLIC!!!!!!

COMMUNISM MEANS A LOSS OF FREEDOM, A LOSS OF OUR CONSITUTIONAL RIGHTS, AND INEVITABLY A LOSS OF AMERICA which we realize MEANS NOTHING TO YOU OUR PRESENT LEADER. THE AMERICA WE KNOW AND LOVE IS FAR DIFFERENT FROM THE AMERICA IT HAS BEEN RECORDED THAT YOU FIND DISTASTEFUL AND HATEFUL.

WE NEVER SAW RACIAL HATRED, NOR DID WE PRACTICE IT, NOR DID WE EVER SEE ANYONE ELSE PRACTICE IT. WE ONLY HEARD ABOUT PREJUDICE. IT EVIDENTLY EXISTED IN SOME PARALLEL UNIVERSE. AND THAT UNIVERSE WAS SPONSORED BY MEAN SPIRITED, IGNORANT AND SPITEFUL INDIVIDUALS FOR WHOM THE REMAINDER OF AMERICANS DO NOT DESERVE TO BE PUNISHED. MANY OF THOSE SAME MEAN SPIRITED INDIVIDUALS WERE THE COMMUNISTS OF THE PAST CENTURY FOSTERING THE TENETS OF EVIL TO STEAL A NATION AND REPLACE IT WITH AN ANTIQUATED SYSTEM THAT HAS NOT WORKED ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!

A PARALLEL UNIVERSE THAT MANY OF YOU AND YOURS CONJURED UP FROM THE PAST TO CAUSE A SPLIT IN THE WELL-BEING AND GOOD FEELINGS THAT THIS COUNTRY HAS HELD FOR OVER 75 YEARS. PAST SECRETARY OF STATE RICE SAID THAT WHEN SHE WAS A CHILD SHE COULD NOT GO TO A RESTAURANT OR MOVIE THEATER. NEITHER COULD MOST CITIZENS REGARDLESS OF COLOR OR RACE. DEPRESSION STRAPPED ADULTS STUCK TO THE NECESSITIES. IT WAS A DEPRESSION (1929) FROM WHICH IT TOOK TWENTY YEARS TO COMPLETELY RECOVER. A world with one SIZE HOT DOG, ONE KIND OF DONUT, A GALLON OF GAS FOR 25-50 CENTS AND some lucky CITIZENS WITH CHICKEN ON SUNDAY AS PROMISED BY FDR!!!!!!!!!! NOT ALL WERE LUCKY!!!!!!!!!!

AMERICA recovered, fought several wars not at all popular but supported by loyalty, had another downturn, survived, and yet another. AMERICA SURVIVED and NEVER REALLY COMPLAINED BUT TOOK "THE BLOWS AND DID IT HER WAY", THE OLD FRANK SINATRA SONG, 'MY WAY' SAYS IT PRETTY WELL, MR. PRESIDENT!!!!!!!!! WE DID IT OUR WAY. WE TOOK THE BLOWS AND DID IT OUR WAY!!!!!!! AMERICA IS UNIQUE, HER CONSTITUTION IS UNIQUE, HER HISTORY IS UNIQUE!!!!!! LEAVE IT ALONE!!!!!!!!

AND WE DON'T WANT TO EXCHANGE IT FOR THE MEDIOCRITY AND SAMENESS OF COMMUNISM, SOCIALISM OR PROGRESSIVISM OR WHATEVER PSYCHOLINQUISTIC WORD OR TERM YOU MAY IN THE FUTURE WISH TO HIDE YOUR FAILURES UNDER!!!!!!!!!!!! AMERICA MUST REMAIN UNIQUE!!!

NOW THAT YOU KNOW WHAT'S WRONG WITH SOCIALISM, MR. PRESIDENT, WILL YOU BE OPEN TO CHANGE????????? YOUR ANSWER IS NOT NECESSARY. IT IS CLEAR THAT LIKE A RELIGIOUS SYCOPHANT, YOU ONLY KNOW WHAT YOU LEARNED AND THERE IS NO ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT.

It's too bad. This blogger feels that INTELLIGENCE is ONE QUARTER: WISDOM; ONE QUARTER: EDUCATION; ONE QUARTER: DEEP BELIEF: AND THE LAST QUARTER: CREATIVE ACCEPTANCE OF NEW REALIZATIONS. The LAST QUARTER is often the most important and LEAST PRACTICED!!!!!!!!! UNFORTUNATELY, MANY SECTS AND POLITICAL PHILOSOPHIES LACK THE VITAL LAST PART. SO MR. PRESIDENT YOU DO NOT STAND ALONE IN THAT LACK BUT IT IS SAD TO SEE TALENT WASTED BECAUSE ONE PORTION OF THE QUADRANT IS NOT CONSIDERED IMPORTANT.

How does this blogger arrogantly assume that this is so?????????BECAUSE YOU DO NOT LISTEN!!!!!!!!!!!NOT TO THE VOTERS!!!!!!!!!!!NOT TO THE PUNDITS!!!!!!!!!!NOT TO THE REALITY OF EVENTS!!!!!!!!!! NOT TO THE WISDOM THAT SNEAKS INTO YOUR BRAIN IN THE DARK OF NIGHT AND IS PUSHED AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!NOT TO ANY AND ALL THE EVIDENCE THAT PRESENTS ITSELF THAT YOUR POLICIES ARE NOT EQUIPPED TO HELP PEOPLE BUT RATHER TO HARM THEM.

I'm sorry, Mr. President, that you didn't at the beginning know what was wrong with SOCIALISM??????? IT'S A TERRIBLE WASTE OF YOUR TALENT, YOUR TIME, AND YOUR IMMENSE EFFORT but THIS ELECTION BECAUSE OF ALL OF THE ABOVE HAS BECOME:

A VOTE ABOUT OBAMA AND SOCIALISM.

USE YOUR AMERICAN RIGHT AND PRIVILEGE AND VOTE FOR FREEDOM.....IN NOVEMBER.

SILLY SEASON FOR RHETORIC Post 121

Hi,

This is SILLY season. The festival time before elections when candidates are permitted to spend a mint on ADVERTISING AND PERSONAL APPEARANCES declaring either complete lies or ALTERED TRUTH.

!!!Since this is an economics blog and one of the economic categories is finance, this blogger would like to take you through one facet of this FESTIVAL FOR POWER.

The challenging candidate, Mitt Romney, has taken a lot of heat for having been SUCCESSFUL in a country that prides itself on SUCCESS but that our current government feels is a DIRTY WORD. THIS BLOGGER FAILS TO UNDERSTAND THE OPPOSITE OF SUCCESS IF IT ISN'T FAILURE AND OUR ERSTWHILE SOCIALISTS NEVER EXPAIN THAT. However, be that as it may the current theme is that Romney hasn't PAID HIS fair share or DUES to AMERICA, the country in which he succeeded.

Let's analyze that statement. One of the examples used is that he paid 14% on $20 million dollars AND THAT IS NOT ENOUGH TO CONSTITUTE A FAIR SHARE.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT 20% OF TWENTY MILLION DOLLARS IS ??????????????? THEY COUNT ON YOU NOT TO KNOW OR FIGURE IT OUT.

IT IS 2.8 MILLION IN TAXES. THAT'S RIGHT !!!!!!!!!!! TWO POINT EIGHT MILLION DOLLARS IN TAXES WHICH AMOUNTS TO:

$200,OOO. A MONTH (in round #s)--THAT'S A MONTH $$. TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND A MONTH!!!!

MOST FOLKS WOULD WELCOME $200,000. A YEAR (not a month) AS A HAPPENING SALARY!!!!!!!!! HE'S PAYING THAT amount a MONTH (yearly) TO OUR GOVERNMENT AND THE SOCIALISTS DO NOT CONSIDER THAT A FAIR SHARE !!!!!!!!!! BASED ON WHAT ?????????????

AS AN EXAMPLE (PICK YOUR OWN PROJECT FOR THIS MONEY)an experienced public school teacher in America makes approximately $56,000.(+or-) a year to TEACH A MULTITUDE OF KIDS. ROMNEY'S TAX PAYMENT WOULD PAY FOR APPROXIMATELY FIFTY (5O) TEACHER'S YEARLY SALARY. IN EFFECT HE'S TAKEN CARE OF FIFTY OF OUR CITIZENS AND PRESUMABLY THEIR FAMILIES. How many families did our tax payments individually support ?????????

SURE IT WOULD BE WONDERFUL IF THOSE SCHOOL TEACHERS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE $200,000. A MONTH OR 2.8 MILLION (ROMNEY'S COST OF TAXES) A YEAR. They deserve it BUT THAT IS NOT THE WAY ANY FINANCIAL WORLD CAN SURVIVE!!!!!!!!!!! PERHAPS WHAT WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT IS A REEVALUATION OF THE IMPORTANCE OF JOB SKILLS AND SEE TEACHING ON A HIGHER SALARY PLANE BUT THAT'S A TOPIC APART.

WHO THOUGHT UP THIS "FAIR SHARE" THING IN THE FIRST PLACE????????? And how do they plan to figure OUT what YOU OWE. If 2.8 million is too little for Romney to pay and help 50 teachers BE PAID their ANNUAL SALARY, just WHAT IS CONSIDERED ENOUGH?????????? FOR YOU ???????? ARE YOU LOOKING DOWN THE ROAD AT TAXES THAT AMOUNT TO MORE THAN YOUR CURRENT BILLS ??????????????

REMEMBER THIS IS THE SAME group THAT SET UP THE 'SUBPRIME MORTGAGE' DEBACLE which BROUGHT OUR COUNTRY TO ITS KNEES IN 2007-8 AND ONLY A TARP BAILOUT KEPT A
"1939 DEPRESSION" OR WORSE FROM HAPPENING according to accounts. That same TARP needs to be gotten rid of now that the primary emergency is past. Another new topic.

THE SUBPRIME MORTGAGE BUSINESS HAPPENED THROUGH BILL CLINTON--WHO BY THE WAY IS REALLY A 'TEFLON' EX-PRESIDENT and escaped most of the blame for that LAPSE OF JUDGEMENT. We were duly instructed BEFORE HE WAS ELECTED that Clinton was intelligent and a Rhodes Scholar (MORE ELECTION RHETORIC)--they didn't tell us he flunked finances.

This blogger is attempting to point out just how much GARBAGE WE ARE FED DURING THE SILLY SEASON OF CAMPAIGNING. And that most of the politicians bank on the fact that we don't have time to CHECK THE FACTS OR STATISTICS that they SPOON FEED US!!!!!!!!!!

Obama and his wife are fond of implying that they know what a FAIR SHARE is and HOW WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER (at 2.8 million dollars EVIDENTLY SOME OF US ARE IN THIS MORE THAN OTHERS). THESE ARE WHAT THIS BLOGGER CALLS MEALY MOUTHING PHRASES used TO APPEAL TO THE "FAIR" IN EVERYONE.

IT IS A KNOWN FACT THAT A MAJORITY OF FOLKS WANT TO SHOULDER THEIR 'FAIR' SHARE IN AMERICA AND APPEALS SUCH as THIS ARE AN 'EMOTIONAL' ATTEMPT TO SLANDER OTHERS AND CON THE REST. Some of our GREATEST CON ARTISTS are not in PRISON--they run for POLITICAL OFFICES. The old Kentuky Colonel character cartoons HARUMPING at election time and promising to put A SUNDAY CHICKEN IN EVERY POT (oh yes, FDR did that too!) was not far off the mark.

THIS BLOGGER HOPES WHEN YOU HEAR THE POLITICAL RHETORIC YOU WILL STOP AND CONSIDER THAT ADVICE FROM A FEW BLOGS BACK. CUT THE "TRUTH?" IN HALF, CUT IT IN HALF AGAIN AND MAYBE YOU CAN SWALLOW THE REST. It's not just STATISTICS THAT GET SKEWED DURING THE SILLY SEASON OF CAMPAIGNING. And remember if Romney were to send YOU $200,000. per month to help out, YOU'D THANK HIM PROFUSELY!!!!!!!!!! $200,000 A MONTH NOT A FAIR SHARE??? COME ON..........GET REAL!!!!!!!!!!!!

FAIR SHARE??????????

VOTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT'S A FAIR SHAKE!!!!!!!!!!!

Cheers, Connie

YOU CAN'T FIX STUPID POST 120

Hi,

This blogger received a post today entitled "You Can't Fix Stupid" that showed many variations of private Spanish citizens running close to tied bulls. Tied, one supposes, so that no one is killed only maimed. It pointed up our economic problems in a fine, pain filled situation with BULLS AND HUMANS.

BULL FIGHTING IS AN INTERESTING SPORT AND this blogger ATTENDED THE BULLFIGHTS IN BARCELONA WHILE IN SPAIN. At one point the audience became agitated during a fight and began to cry 'BAD BULL', 'BAD BULL" FOR SOMETHING???? MY INEXPERIENCED EYES COULD NOT DETECT but THE CHANT BECAME OMINOUS, and chair cusions (WHICH WERE MADE OF STONE, BY THE WAY) BEGAN TO FLY "OVER" OUR HEADS-thank goodness. The officials sensing the rage of the crowd ordered the bull removed and no heads were broken or bulls charged!!!!!!!! IT WAS AN ILLUMINATING EXPERIENCE AND THE HUMOR OF THE CROWD DEMANDING FAIRNESS FOR THE BULL FIGHTER EXTREMELY INTERESTING BECAUSE HE DOES RISK DEATH OR MAIMING IN THE RING IF HE MISSES A BEAT.

Bull fighting surprisingly enters a lot of our jargon in this country. You know we use it when POLITICIANS ARE BULL------- voters; one can be told to cut the bull;that's a lot of cockamanie or bullmanie; the market is bullish; a subject is judged to be full of bull and so forth. BULLS ARE SELF IMPORTANT, HUGE, AGGRESSIVE ANIMALS, FULL OF TESTOSTERONE.

THEREFORE, THE EGO OF MAN AND his MACHISMO (MOSTLY MEN SINCE I DIDN'T SEE ANY FOOL WOMEN RUNING THE BULLS BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN THERE AREN'T SOME!!!!) AND THE WOMEN AND THEIR MARASCHINO (for the cherry) have an ALMOST CHILD LIKE NEED TO TEASE THE BULLS AND GET GORED. AND THEY DO GET GORED, SOME VERY SERIOUSLY. IF THAT SEEMS STUPID TO YOU THEN YOU AGREE with the gist of the email that this is the way the Spanish take care of the STUPIDITY in their culture.

SUPPOSE INSTEAD OF DEBATES, we decided to test our POLITICIANS IN THE BULL RING????????? THE ROMANS USED A LION IN THE RING WITH THEIR GLADIATORS. WOULD THIS BE SO FAR REMOVED?

DO YOU THINK THEY COULD GET RID OF ALL THAT EGO AND MACHISMO OR MARASCHINO as the case may be so they WOULD NOT GET IN THE ECONOMIC RING WITH THE CONGRESSIONAL BILLS WHICH ARE CURRENTLY DEFEATING THEM??????????? and us!!!!!!!!!! IT MIGHT NOT CURE STUPID BUT IT COULD SURE PUT A HURT ON IT!!!!!!!!!!

Let's look at their solutions to health care. Told over and over by experts that Medicare as it stands will be out of money in a few years WHAT DID THE CONGRESS AND THE PRESIDENT DO??????????? PASSED A BILL THAT RAISED THE ANTE TO A COST OF TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS. BRILLIANT????--NOT EXACTLY. SCORE: BILL ONE--POLITICIANS AND PUBLIC GORED!!!!!!!

NOW HOW ABOUT MORTGAGES-CAN'T PAY YOUR MORTGAGE PAYMENTS?????????SOLUTION: GET ANOTHER MORTGAGE THAT YOU CAN'T PAY EITHER AT HIGHER INTEREST!!!!!!!BRILLIANT???--NOT EXACTLY. SCORE: BILL ONE (FANNIE MAE-FREDDIE MAC)-POLITICIANS AND PUBLIC GORED!!!!!!

EDUCATION FOR YOUR CHILDREN SO THEY CAN GET GOOD JOBS????????????? WHY NOT LEND THEM LOTS OF MONEY AT ACCELERATING INTEREST SO THEY OWE MORE THAN THEY CAN MAKE!!!!!!!!! BRILLIANT--NOT EXACTLY. SCORE: BILL ONE -- POLITICIANS AND PUBLIC GORED.

IMMIGRATION PROBLEMS????? DECIDE THAT PRESENT CITIZENS PAY ROOM, BOARD, AND PROVIDE EDUCATION FOR CHILDREN OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS FOR JOBS DONE CHEAPLY SO BUSINESS BENEFITS!!!!!!!!!!BRILLIANT??????--NOT EXACTLY. SCORE: BILL ONE ---POLITICIANS AND PUBLIC GORED.

Now with that kind of record JUST AGAINST CONGRESSIONAL BILLS, I fear if we sent the politicians up against the BULLS, IT WOULD BE MURDER AND MAYHEM FOR THE POLITICIANS AND THE BULLS WOULD WALK FREE ONCE AGAIN. HOWEVER THE PUBLIC MIGHT BE UNGORED!!!!!!

HOW DO WE STOP THE EGO AND MACHISMO AND MARASCHINO THAT RUNS BEFORE THE BILLS?????????? VOTE AND STOP LETTING YOURSELF BE GORED BY BAD JUDGEMENT, BAD POLICY AND BAD EGO. YOU CAN'T CHANGE STUPIDITY BUT YOU CAN VOTE IT OUT!!!!!!!!!!

WHAT'S THE SCORE? CITIZENS VS. GOVERNMENT?

Hi,

With the primaries coming up, this blogger hopes your ballot is filled out and ready to take to the polls. The primaries should be considered a most important issue for party members because the INCOMPETENTS THAT WE SEND TO WASHINGTON START IN THOSE PRIMARIES.

Too little attention is often paid to the committee men and women who are responsible for much of the party actions and most voters have NO IDEA who those STRANGERS on the ballot are or what they represent. UNFORTUNATELY THEY REPRESENT YOU!!!!!! and your selection of CANDIDATES. YOU GET THE FINISHED LIST ON THE BALLOT BUT HOW MANY GOOD CANDIDATES IN WHOM YOU WOULD FEEL INVESTED are not on that ballot?

This blogger realizes that few of us have the time to be part of the planning,construction and organization of political parties but we should be demanding an accounting from them. The Democratic, Republican and other parties should be presenting voters with at least reports of their activities and THE REASON FOR selections of candidates. One would think they would want to send out bulletins, post on the web, or submit media articles keeping the public or at least party members informed. I'm sure membership from registered voters would climb if they CAME OUT FROM BEHIND CLOSED DOORS before election pressure!!!!!!!!!!

THERE ARE JUST TOO MANY CLOSED DOORS IN OUR PRESENT SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT. Not all of them are closed because of sinister intentions. Many such as political parties become represented by political clubs whose influence is far greater than the pubic imagines but do not have to report their activities since they are private. Now, I'm not proposing new laws (WE'VE GOT TOO MANY OF THOSE ALREADY!!) but this blogger is suggesting public involvement in demanding MORE INPUT INTO HOW THINGS GET DONE!!!!!!!

WE SEND CANDIDATES TO WASHINGTON TO PICK OUR POCKETS AT TAX TIME with little or no knowledge of what kind of PICKPOCKETS THEY ARE. At least in Europe they train their PICKPOCKETS IF NOT THEIR CANDIDATES!!!!! This beyond all shadow of a doubt is the problem throughout the monster that has become GOVERNMENT in AMERICA. NO ONE INCLUDING GOVERNMENT MEMBERS HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT THE DEVIL IS GOING ON? WHO IS RESPONSIBLE? ARE THEY REALLY QUALIFIED TO DO THAT? (WHATEVER "THAT" IS?-IF THEY CAN FIND THAT OUT). DOES THE logic sound UNREASONABLE? - WELL, SO IS THE SITUATION.

THIS BLOGGER IS WILLING TO ASSERT THAT MOST VOTERS AND some POLITICIANS HAVE NO IDEA WHAT'S GOING ON TODAY IN THE POLITICAL WORLD because it is A WORLD APART FROM ITS CONSTITUENTS. THAT'S NOT GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BET YOU COULD recite MORE about the NFL COACHES, PLAYERS, AND PROPOSED GAMES THEN WHAT CONGRESSMAN IS PLAYING THIS WEEK and what BILLS ARE IN THE AIR, OR WHAT THE COACHES OR WHIPS (the Chairs in the House and Senate) have on their PLAY LIST!!!!!!!!!! Most folks could offer CHAPTER AND VERSE ABOUT WHO COMPETED IN THE OLYMPICS?, DID THEY WIN OR LOSE?, WHAT'S SCHEDULED NEXT AND WHO THE MAIN WINNING TEAMS AND COACHES REPRESENT?

FUN STUFF, SURE, BUT WHY CAN'T WE PUT POLITICS INTO THAT CATEGORY???????? The stakes are certainly higher for each of us. MAYBE THAT'S THE PROBLEM. WE SEE THE STAKES AS TOO HIGH, TOO SERIOUS, TOO DAMAGING IF A MISTAKE IS MADE AND THAT SUCKS THE FUN OUT of the COMPETITION!!!!!!!

HEADS UP FRIENDS!!!!!!!!!! IT JUST A'INT GOING TOO WELL THE WAY WE'RE HANDLING IT!!!!! SO, TIME FOR A SHIFT IN TACTICS. Maybe the folks in WASHINGTON WOULDN'T FEEL THEY COULD PASS A HEALTH CARE BILL WITHOUT READING IT if their ELECTORATE WAS AT LEAST MARGINALLY INTERESTED IN THEIR ACTIONS!!!!!!!!! OUR SUPREME DISINTEREST IN ALL THINGS CONGRESSIONAL IS LIKE SENDING CANDIDATES TO WASHINGTON AND SAYING "YOU DO IT" AND WE'LL RUBBER STAMP IT!!!!!!!!!!!

YES, THIS BLOGGER IS AWARE OF THE INTERNET FORWARDS BY MANY AND THEY GET TERRIFIC RESULTS WHEN CONTINUALLY FOWARDED!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS BLOGGER IS ALSO AWARE OF THE ACTIONS OF THE TEA PARTY AND APPLAUDS THEM. THEY HOPEFULLY WILL KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!!! BUT WHAT ABOUT YOU????????????

Did you stop to consider that the TEA PARTY action came AFTER THE BARN DOOR WAS LEFT OPEN AND THE HEALTH CARE BAIL OUT!!!!!!!!!! PROTESTS BETTER LATE THAN NEVER!!!!!! And did you stop to consider that the LACK OF INTEREST IN WHAT WAS HAPPENING POLITICALLY pointed up the fact that TEA PARTY MEMBERS had been roused out of citizen stupor so well THAT THE SOCIALISTS CALLED THEM VILLANS FOR STANDING UP, GOING OUT, AND BEING HEARD!!!!!!!!! The CSPers made it sound like a crime for citizens to suddenly become interested in the process that makes their lives what they are or could become. SHOCKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That alone should point up the lack of interest too often conveyed by American voters, who begin with a lack of knowledge at the primary and follow through with a lack of knowledge about the many bills passed by the UNKNOWNS they are NOT WATCHING IN CONGRESS, THEIR SENATE, OR THEIR LOCAL GOVERNMENT. About the only interest taken is condemning whomever is President FOR DOING A BAD JOB OF WHATEVER. THAT'S PROBABLY TOO TRUE SINCE WHOMEVER IS PRESIDENT MOST LIKELY KNEW MORE ABOUT BASEBALL OR BASKETBALL THAN THE GOVERNMENT BEFORE taking OFFICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This blogger believes the internet could be the SALVATION OF AMERICAN POLITICS IN KEEPING THE PUBLIC UP TO THE MINUTE!!!!!!!! AS WELL AS GETTING TO KNOW THE PROCESS, PLUS THE CANDIDATES (AT LEAST THEIR ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND FUTURE PLANS) and SHED SOME LIGHT ON ALL THE BILLS AND ISSUES UP FOR GRABS. FLORIDA LEARNED LONG AGO THAT "PORK CHOP POLITICS" (THE GOOD OLD BOY, KEEP IT A SECRET SYSTEM) WERE CAUSED BY THAT LACK OF OPENNESS TO VOTERS AND THE CLOSED DOOR ALLIANCES HELD CORRUPTION AND GREED AS BY-PRODUCTS.

PERHAPS IF YOU'RE SITTING AT THE COMPUTER TODAY WONDERING HOW YOU CAN INCREASE YOUR INPUT INTO THE REAL WORLD, let this blogger suggest some possible approaches. Start an ONLINE CLUB THAT SHARES POLITICAL INFORMATION ON A LOCAL AND NATIONAL LEVEL. OR start AN ONLINE group that shares researching THE BILLS AND LAWS THAT COME OUT LOCALLY AND IN WASHINGTON. OR START AN ONLINE CLUB that shares looking into the benefits afforded certain politicians, their districts, and maybe their pocketbooks from their actions on a LOCAL OR NATIONAL LEVEL.

I COULD OFFER DOZENS MORE IDEAS BUT THAT'S A GOOD START TO RAISING YOUR POLITICAL INTEREST TO THE LEVEL OF IMPORTANCE OF FOOTBALL,BASEBALL, BASKETBALL, THE OLYMPICS AND "AMERICA HAS TALENT".

MAKE POLITICS YOUR TALENT AND SCORE THE GOOD LIFE!!!!!!!!!!It SHOULD SCARE THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS OUT OF THOSE WHO REPRESENT US IN OFFICE!!!!!!!

RELOADING FOR HISTORY! POST 118

Hi,

This blogger ran into a QUOTE ATTRIBUTED TO Thomas Jefferson this week that hits home so I pass it on to you.

"PEACE IS THAT BRIEF GLORIOUS MOMENT IN HISTORY WHEN EVERYBODY STANDS AROUND RELOADING."

That seems to be where we are right now with elections looming and the DESTINY OF OUR MODERN NATION waiting at the polls as it was in the thirties and sixties. We seem in this country to have 30 year recessions and 30 year battles with the FOLKS WHO DO NOT LIKE AMERICA PER SE namely the CSPers (Communist=socialist=progressive) and each outcome takes our country further afield from our original concept of what America should become.

In the mid-sixties the plans for the current push TO CHANGE GOVERNMENT COMPLETELY was written by two Columbia University sociology professors. THEY wrote a treatise on how to COLLAPSE an Economic system by PROVIDING GOVERNMENT ASSISTANCE to as many citizens as possible (OUR MORTGAGE DEBACLE AND HEALTH CARE BILL DO THAT) and thereby bankrupt a current financial system. You can find it on the web under Cloward-Piven 2.0. They believed that "crisis strategy" would end poverty and included CLASS WARFARE, DEMONIZING THE RICH, AND PUSHING THE ECONOMIC SYSTEM TO COLLAPSE BY EXTENDING WELFARE ASSISTANCE. IT IS ALSO SEEN by CURRENT PSLs AS THE PERFECT VEHICLE TO ENSURE THAT OBAMA REMAINS IN OFFICE.

Seem foreign to you that almost FIFTY YEARS ago warfare strategy (AND WARFARE IS NOT AN OVERSTATEMENT-GUNS ARE ONLY ACCESSORIES TO REAL WARFARE!!!!!!) was set in place by two COMMUNISTS and set out finally on the web????????? This blogger has told readers many times that COMMUNISM IS NOT MODERN. IT'S ANCIENT AND ITS FAILURES to REDUCE POVERTY AND DESTROY ECONOMIES ARE LEGENDARY but that doesn't seem to SLOW IT DOWN. They take their time and look for OR CREATE vulnerabilities like RECESSIONS. ISN'T THAT THE WAY ALL WARS START???????? HITLER TOOK EUROPE IN A VULNERABLE RECESSION,. THE COMMUNISTS CONQUERED EUROPE ECONOMICALLY since WWII and now LOOK AT THE ECONOMIC FAILURES!!!!!!!!)

So, in essence we are between wars and everyone is reloading. So far, it's all quite civilized while the CSPers reload and Americans DECIDE whether they NEED Muskets or not. THE COMING ELECTION WILL CERTAINLY ANSWER THAT QUESTION. If the CSPers win, it's going to be a strong incentive to AMERICAN CITIZENS to review their options and either defend or abandon the current system of government in America. Make no mistake it WILL NOT BE BUSINESS AS USUAL IN OUR NATION AND EVEN WITH YOUR EYES TIGHTLY CLOSED IT IS NOT GOING TO GO AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!

Enjoy the temporary tranquility because there may well be VERY ROUGH WEATHER AHEAD for all us since we have only seen the TIP OF THE ICEBERG. (hey, not often I can use old mediphors together). But this Blogger reflects on past history and how the Hindenburg is a good example OF DISASTER APPEARING in GERMANY. IT OFTEN HAPPENS WHEN YOU ARE CRUISING ALONG ENJOYING LIFE WITH ONLY MINIMAL (ALTHOUGH THEY SEEM MAXIMUM) TROUBLES IN TOW WHEN WHAM, BAM, THANK YOU M'AM???????????? YOU HIT A HARD PLACE AND CRASH!!!!!!!!!

WE DON'T HAVE TO LET THIS HAPPEN!!!!!!! WE'VE SEEN THE TIP OF THE ICEBURG unlike the Titanic AND THIS ELECTION CAN TURN US OFF THE DISASTER COURSE. We can take WASHINGTON BACK AND PUT OUR COUNTRY ON A NEW COURSE BY TELLING THE CSPers TO BACK OFF!!!!!!!!!!! This election can be a THANK YOU NOTE TO OUR CONSTITUTION AND BILL OF RIGHTS AND OUR COUNTRY FOR GIVING US THE PEACEFUL LAND OF THE FREE AND THE BRAVE.

YES, WE HAVE PROBLEMS just as ROSES have THORNS but you don't KILL THE ROSES, YOU harvest the roses, CUT OFF THE THORNS THEN ADMIRE THE ROSES. Don't let the MISGUIDED AND MISINFORMED take charge with OLD IDEAS AND RHETORIC. Look at the REAL FACTS. WE MAY NOT BE THE MOST PERFECT COUNTRY IN THE WORLD BUT WE'VE BEEN DAMN CLOSE!!!!!!!!!!!AND CAN BE AGAIN BY RENEWING OUR VOWS. WE CAN BE AS GREAT AS WE BELIEVE WE CAN BE!!!!!!!!AND THAT IS NOT RHETORIC. FREEDOM, PASSION, INGENUITY, INDUSTRY AND RESOLVE ARE ALL AMERICAN TRAITS. We can use them to make JOBS APPEAR, FEED OUR HOMELESS AND NEEDY, AND MAKE LIFE COMFORTABLE AGAIN FOR A GREATER NUMBER OF CITIZENS THAN ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD.

WE CAN DO THIS WITH OUR SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT, OUR CONSTITUION, OUR COMMITMENT TO FREEDOM AND OUR BILL OF RIGHTS. WE HAVE THE PAPERWORK--NOW LET'S DO THE REAL WORK!!!!!!!! RUN THESE USURPERS OFF THE PROPERTY--PUT UP NO TRESPASSING SIGNS AND GET ON WITH BUILDING AMERICA BACK TO WHERE IT CAN BE STRONG, EFFICIENT, WELCOMING, AND CARING FOR ITS CITIZENS AND THOSE WHO REQUIRE SUSTENANCE OF ONE KIND OR ANOTHER.

This may be a time of RELOADING NOT JUST MUSKETS BUT PRINCIPLES and those PRINCIPLES will be UP TO EVERY VOTER TO UPHOLD. DON'T LISTEN TO THE WORDS--LISTEN TO THE PRICIPLES OF JUSTICE AND FREEDOM. THAT SHINING CITY ON THE HILL NEEDS THAT UNDERLYING FOUNDATION TO SURVIVE.

GO TO THE POLLS AND REJECT A LOSS OF FREEDOM AS A TRADE FOR FREE CANDY. Your Mom taught you NOT TO TAKE CANDY FROM STRANGERS--THE CSPers ARE STRANGERS!!!!!! UPHOLDERS OF OUR REPUBLIC ARE NOT STRANGERS.

CHEERS, CONNIE
