Hi,
THIS BLOGGER
WONDERS HOW WE CAN PRESUME TO ANALYSE AND UNDERSTAND GEORGE
WASHINGTON, A MAN OF GREAT WEALTH AND PROPERTY, WHO DIDN'T NEED TO FIGHT FOR SURVIVAL, ONLY FREEDOM. THE SAME ANALYZERS COMPLETELY FAIL TO UNDERSTAND THEIR OWN CURRENT LEADERS AND THEIR
INTENTIONS. BUT BE THAT AS IT MAY, IT’S EASIER TO DENIGRATE A DEAD HERO THAN A
LIVE ONE--FEWER REPRECUSSIONS.
MOST HEROES
OF WAR, INDUSTRY, AND RELIGION ETC. HAVE ONE COMMON TRAIT AND THAT IS A TRAIT THAT
NO ONE CAN EXPLAIN AWAY. A DESIRE TO
CHANGE “WHATEVER” TO WHAT THEY CONSIDER BETTER, MORE EQUITABLE, MORE
PROFITABLE, MORE ADVANTAGEOUS OR MORE SPIRITUAL. THAT’S A PRE-GIVEN AND THE
OTHER TRAITS OF WHICH THEY ARE ACCUSED DO NOT “AMOUNT TO A ROW OF BEANS” INCLUDING HAVING FEARS
OR FEET OF CLAY. THE WEAKNESSES WERE NEITHER HERE NOR THERE IN THE FACE OF
THE BURNING DESIRE TO CHANGE WHAT THE HERO FELT AND INTERNALIZED AS THEIR NUMBER ONE
GOAL.
HEROES ARE MADE OF STERNER STUFF THAN YOU AND
ME AND THEY ARE OFTEN WILLFUL, RAMBUNCTIOUS, STUBBORN, FRACTIOUS, TACITURN,
PROMISCUOUS AND A NUMBER OF OTHER ADJECTIVES TYPIFYING A FORM OF STRONG LEADERSHIP
THAT WILL BROOK NO INTERFERENCE.
THOSE HEROES, WHO ARE REALLY GREAT AND CREATE HISTORIC
MASTERPIECES CAN NOT BE JUDGED BY THE REST OF US. GEORGE WASHINGTON WAS ONE SUCH MAN AND THOSE
WHO TRY ARE SIMPLY “SPINNING THEIR WHEELS” AND SHOWING THEIR IGNORANCE. THEY
HAVE NO REAL KNOWLEGE OF WHAT IT MEANS TO BE IN THE GRIP OF BRINGING A COUNTRY
TO BIRTH. WHAT DOUBTS AND FEARS AND AMBIVIALENCE WE COMMON EVERDAYS CAN CONJOUR
UP WOULD HAVE INDEED SPUN THROUGH SUCH A MAN’S MIND AND SIMPLY HAVE TO BE PUT
ASIDE IN THE FACE OF THE BIGGER PICTURE.
BEING A HUMAN BEING, HOWEVER GREAT IN MIND, BODY AND SPIRIT, CARRIES WITH IT
ALL THE UNDERSTANDING OF A WISE AND CAREFUL LEADER WHICH INCLUDES EXAMINING WHAT
COULD AND MIGHT GO WRONG. IF GEORGE WASHINGTON HAD NOT DONE THAT PERHAPS
AMERICA’S REAL BIRTH WOULD HAVE BEEN MORE DISASTROUS. IT HAS OFTEN BEEN CALLED THE WISDOM OF GENIUS.
FRANKLY,
HISTORIANS WOULD DO BETTER TO TRY TO UNDERSTAND WHAT MAKES SUCH A MAN SO
DETERMINED TO ACHIEVE WHAT HE FEELS IS RIGHT AND GOOD AND HOW HE CAN BE
SO PRESCIENT IN THE FACE OF THE CONTROVERSY SURROUNDING HIM.
THERE ARE
NOT MANY IN ANY GENERATION WHO CAN ACHIEVE THAT KIND OF CERTAINTY AND SO AFFECT
THEIR LIVES AND THE LIVES OF GENERATIONS OF MEN AND WOMEN, WHO PROBABLY NEVER
STOPPED TO THINK THAT THEY HAVE WHAT THEY HAVE OF FREEDOM BECAUSE GEORGE
WASHINGTON BELIEVED FIRMLY THAT THIS WAS THEIR GOD GIVEN RIGHT AND WAS WILLING
TO DIE FOR HIS BELIEF. THAT HE WAS ABLE TO SURVIVE AND LIVED TO BE OUR FIRST
PRESIDENT MAKES THE FOURTH OF JULY, OUR
INDEPENDENCE DAY SWEET INDEED.
NEXT TIME
YOU ARE BESEIGED BY MODERN DAY WONDERS OF THE ANALYTICAL STUDY OF THE GREAT HISTORICAL
FIGURES , ASK YOURSELF IF IT ISN’T EASIER TO ANALYZE AND MAKE PROCLAMATIONS IN
A COOL, COMFY STUDY THAN IT IS TO CLAIM VICTORY ON SOME BATTLEGROUND IN WHICH
YOU COULD LOSE EVERYTHING INCLUDING YOUR LIFE. AND ONLY BECAUSE YOU BELIEVE IT IS RIGHT AND
GOOD TO DO SO.
COULD MANY
OF US STAND UP AND SAY YES???????????
WHEN YOU
SEE THE HEAT OF THIS POLITICAL BATTLE THIS FALL, UNDERSTAND WHAT GEORGE
WASHINGTON FOUGHT FOR AND WON. ASK YOURSELF IF YOU CAN SO EASILY ALLOW THAT
PRECIOUS FREEDOM TO BE TAKEN AWAY FROM YOU BY THE SOCIALISTS AND WHETHER EVEN
AFTER ALL THIS TIME IF GEORGE WOULDN'T “TURN OVER IN HIS GRAVE” AND SCREAM , “NO,
IT’S THE SAME FIGHT !!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOLD FIRM”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! “DON’T GIVE IN TO
TYRANNY”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
IT IS THE
SAME FIGHT--THE SAME WAR !!!!!!!!!!!
ENJOY THE “TEMPEST IN A TEAPOT” THIS FALL BETWEEN THE CANDIDATES, BUT WHEN YOU GO TO THE POLLS IN NOVEMBER THE REAL DECISION WILL BE:
FREEDOM //OR// TOTALITARIANISM.
MAKE NO
MISTAKE HILLARY AND BERNIE AND THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY NOW REPRESENT TYRANNY
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TRUMP AND THE REPUBLICAN PARTY NOW REPRESENT FREEDOM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AND THAT’S THE ONLY THING THE ELECTION IN NOVEMBER CAN GIVE YOU FOR CERTAIN.
WE KNOW HOW
GEORGE WASHINGTON WOULD VOTE BECAUSE IT’S THE SAME OLD ENEMY!!!!!!!!! HE SHARED WITH US THE DETERMINATION OF THE VISION AND WISDOM OF GENIUS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!DON'T ALLOW THIS TO BE OUR LAST CELEBRATION OF A FREE America !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY AND HAPPY FREEDOM ON THIS FOURTH OF JULY. !!!!!!!!!!!!
HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY AND HAPPY FREEDOM ON THIS FOURTH OF JULY. !!!!!!!!!!!!
CHEERS,
CONNIE
