The President has no Bite!

Eight months into his Presidency, President Obama has made many a great speech. He can articulate exactly what he thinks and feels to a large crowd very successfully with passion and integrity. The only problem is that he is too nice a person for the job. Jimmy Carter was no different. A man of the people with a honest heart, yet very weak otherwise. We are seeing this play out again and again now, the President is back tracking on every issue, every piece of legislation just to make the other side feel good, and in doing so has completely wiped out any strength he has, or had in Congress. The President looks very weak and limp right now, and on every issue more empty speeches and no results produce failed policies.
He was voted into office from the biggest issue of the time, the two wars we have got going now in Iraq and Afghanistan and people want out of both. Only now he is wanting to send more troops to Afghanistan? This is looking just like L.B.J. after J. F. Kennedy died in the early 1960's. L.B.J. wanted to appear to be a strong Democratic President and actually pushed ahead with the war effort by putting 500,000 more troops in Vietnam, only to get 58,000 of them killed in the process, along with 3 Million Vietnamese civilians and ended up being a complete waste of time, effort, money and lives. I know well because I have been to Vietnam, and my wife lived through the entire ordeal. It was a tragedy that did not have to happen, but was forced on the USA because of greed, just like we see now. The Banking cartels, the Military Industrial complex, the Halliburton type companies, they all make 100's of Billions in war and they do not want change, they want things to stay as they are right now. Bogged down, stagnant is good for them because the money keeps pouring in from Government, while the corruptible Politicians stuff cash into their own pockets and look the other way.
Health care reform, Finance reform, war reform, immigration reform, trade reform, all  looks like not much will happen, and then in no time at all it will be election time 2012 again and we the citizens are faced with the same predicament? What's the use to vote if it means so little in the end.
Nothing short of a real revolution looks like it will have any impact on America. We are being held hostage by the politicians, they make the laws, all of them. Nothing can be done without a law being introduced and voted on, and then being put into action. Every crisis at hand right now is the result of a Politician creating a law to allow it to happen. There are no accidents ever. It is all manufactured to produce the desired results, which is to bleed the American  consumer dry of their assets, and the same goes  on World wide, for the benefit of the rich as well.
President Obama was going to lead us to the promised land? It kind of feels more like we are on our own to figure out what to do next.
The enemy is not an invisable terrorist here or in a far off land somewhere. The enemy is 100 Senators, and 435 Congressmen and women who want to get rich and powerful from their elected jobs inWashington!
This is treason.

Leadership is doing the right thing when no one is looking!

Amazingly today our American culture has been so twisted by scandals, by greed , by winning, by racism, by bigotry, by intolerance  that the people who have the honor of leading have  they themselves turned into total disgraces.
Our Politicians, our Religious clergy, our Professional Athletes, the people that set standards for morality and ethical behavior whether they like it or not, have become the biggest bunch of failures and frauds.
The ones who yell the loudest turn out to be the biggest crooks themselves.
The ones who point fingers at others turn out to be the the worst offenders themselves.
The ones claiming their close connection to God, and religion do the most diabolical, insidious things to children and adults and can and will always  justify this repugnant behavior with even more fictional religious crap.
But of course crying on TV gets you that "get out of Jail" card from the ignorant masses of polarised sheered sheep. Those whose standards of intelligence, and excellence end with Hee Haa, and Praise the Lord TV..
The kindred Spiritual Mother Teresa's of the World are nowhere to be found in America today and except in remote places such  as in Burma, where Aung San Suu Kyi is imprisoned for protecting her people from Human rights abuses from a Military Government, or a gifted women, and women of the people  like Oprah Winfred, with such a Humanistic, loving, caring and giving nature, are people of great character to set examples for everybody to live by. There is a huge void in America for ethical leadership. Men have failed in their leadership roles in America due to their own self serving natures. What we have instead are self serving failed politicians like Michelle Bachmann and ex- politicians like Sarah Palin, that promote hate, intolerance, bigotry,  gender ignorance's by her own low level education and then justifies this lack of reasoning and knowledge with fictitious religion and a fictional God.
Then there are the enablers of TV, FOX TV for a fact, that create intolerance, racism and bigotry  to sell themselves and increase their annual salaries at the cost of all Humanity. The Hannitys, O'Reillys, Becks, Malkins all promote hate. It makes them a boatload of cash, and for modern American  Republicans, personal ethics start with money and end with money!
We have the G.W. Bushes and Dick Cheneys who promote torture in the name of God. That promote war for profit in the name of God. That promote greed in the name of God. That promote self serving behavior to acquire wealth even and most often when it is destructive to people and the Environment.
The professional sports players are among the worst offenders as role models today with their MTV attitudes of sex, drugs, and who gives a shit behavior even though their entire career and fortune is made from the people who watch them have fun, while being paid 10's of million every year.
You know what?
None of these professions or these people were ever meant to be role models in the first place anyway. They are there only  to make money, obtain power, and rule over the populations of dumbed down morons who make poor choices for themselves and then cry, it's not my fault.
So if anybody watched President's Obama's speech to the Nation on Health care last night you got a good dose of true Republican behavior. As Congressman Joe Wilson, yelled out "You Lie" to the President, this was heard around the World. It shows the contempt, racist, intolerant, bigoted behavior the far right religious base has gotten because America has an African American President. What this jerk-off said was right in line with High School behavior, disrespectful behavior of a Southern racist, the exact thing I am referring to when it comes to leadership, and fairness. This slouch Joe Wilson is but one example of the brainlessly low quality of people in Politics, and the foul stench associated with the Republican Party today..
And this blowhard, this dipshit  got caught in the act of being a religious, repugnant  republican. How nice!
So who exactly then are our role models? These are the people who do the right thing because it is the right thing and not because they make money from their actions, or become famous, or get special privileges. Doing the right thing does not hurt other people. Doing the right thing does not degrade your environment or abuse animals. Doing the right thing is knowing that you are connected to everyone and everything on Planet Earth, and that everything you do affects them and others too..
Doing the right thing when no one is looking takes personal convictions and strength.
Do you do the right thing when no one is looking?

Having an opinion is Worthless if there are no facts to back it up!


Today on TV you can turn to many channels where you can watch and learn just about anything that has ever been known to Humankind, and of course the Internet blows this away by  a light-year. But how the hell does a TV station like FOX TV be allowed to just make up facts as they go, with no regard to the truth or facts. It is stunning to hear  a commentator on FOX TV say the most libelous things about anyone at anytime with no regard for any journalistic integrity. With the likes of ( F-it, we''ll do it live, we'll do it live!!!) O'Reilly, and  jello backs Hannity, and Beck ( Nature was cruel and left these two men with no spines, otherwise known as cowardly), , guest clowns, the Pretty Miss Michelle Malkin ( Doesn't she know that she is Dark skinned and Asian, in an all White racist, bigoted men's club?)  and Ann Colture, the Champion of the Heartless, the promoter of Greed and intolerance, the Princess  of modern Witches or wenches and the co-founder of the Klan in your home town with the look of white Death.  As well as Mr. Limp slouch himself, Cavuto. With all these talking heads going on and on about everything and anything still not a word of fact even mixed into the conversation just to startle their base of viewers..
After months of the Birthers and then the teabaggers and then the Country is now Communist, and then they are taking your guns away, and then the illegal aliens ( undocumented immigrants to regular folks) are ruining the country and have destroyed our way of live movement. I wonder what the hell they say that is actually true on this station.
If FOX TV and it's commentators simply came out and said, look we hate Black people, we hate Hispanics, we marginally hate Jews until we can make money off of them, we hate Asians because they are all  rice eating  non-Christian  Communist Atheists, we hate Arabs because they all have too much hair on their backs, we hate the poor,  the homeless, the unfortunate, the tolerant, the less selfish, the kind, the compassionate, the loving. If they just came out and said this then I would know that they are telling the truth for once and I could agree with them. But no, they have to pretend that they sympathize "almost" with everybody not like them, but hate creeps into every conversation, and rears it's ugly head again and again until each of these commentators is foaming at the mouth.
If the FOX TV logo just said, "If you are not like us we Hate all of you". Than it would be more believable.
In my entire life I have never heard so much bellyaching, whining, slobbering, crying, drooling of worthless nouns, verbs, and prepositions about a President in my short comfortable life.
Here is a man, our President Obama, a person of conviction, a person for the people, a person that grew up having less things than the more fortunate, but was guided with love,  and affection, because of a strong Mother and Grandma. A man that will go down in History, because he was elected to the office of the Presidency of the United States on the coattails of the "Worst, most Corrupt, and Greedy" administration in America's short History, the Bush/ Cheney criminal regime. That President Obama  inherited a dung-heap of problems because of the laziness, ( 900 days on vacation Bush) and selfishness ( Dick, the I got mine Cheney, so F-you) of the Bush regime that almost took this Great Country of ours into  the Cat Litter box of final endings.
That not one of the FOX commentators can speak even one kind, appropriate word for this President is outrageous, sickening, disturbing and down right un-Patriotic.
Since I have some educational background and much more class than to give FOX TV the middle finger, I will just let them kiss my lilly white ass instead, and that's the truth!

I cannot prove that I know anything, but I certainly know that you know nothing!


Today as always we have the dueling effect of the political pundits and Politicians claiming that the other "Guys" plan, theory, agenda, direction, reason is all wrong even though they themselves have no plan, theory, direction, reason either.
The idea is to attack the other person, but at the same time don't say what you stand for, particularly if it is more of the same choice that got us to where we are today. More of the same will not fix anything, and denial is just an excuse or justification for not taking responsibility for the choice that did not work out well.
If you like for America to be caught in 2 wars in foreign countries eating up $13,000,000,000. 00 each and every month, 5,000 American soldiers killed, 100,000's of foreign citizens killed/ murdered so that Big Oil corporation, Halliburton, and other untold Companies can profit than you liked the past 8 years under the Bush regime.
If you like to ignore the fact that President G.W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney had been  in office 8 months before 9/11 occurred, that they both ignored all the warnings signs from the FBI, CIA and other Intelligence agencies. That 9/11 was totally preventable. That Bush allowed the Bin Ladin family to fly out of the USA and back to the Middle East on the day 9/11 occurred, only because the Bush family and the Bin Laden's do business together than you most likely felt good under the Bush regime too.
If you like the President of America to lie to it's citizens to create an unnecessary war for profit, only to give the Military Industrial complex  a few good years in the stock market, than the Bush 8 years were a joy for you as well.
If you like the fact that the corruption and greed allowed to occur under this Bush regime transferred $700,000,000,000.00 of taxpayers money to rich Wall St Companies, than you must have liked the past 8 years under the Bush regime.
If you liked open Borders, no immigration laws or enforcement of existing laws other than for show, than you like the Bush regime for the past 8 years.
If you liked the outsourcing of nearly all manufacturing jobs overseas to our Asian friends, then you liked the last 8 years under the Bush regime.
If you liked the  threatening Diplomatic behavior by our Government officials towards the rest of the World that resulted in global kaos, then you liked the last 8 years under the Bush regime.
If you think that as long as you are fed, have wealth, never want to serve in the Armed forces ( Bush/Cheney) but want to enjoy the rewards of Freedom, and Liberty, than you liked the last 8 years under the Bush regime.
If you think Health care is not a problem, and frankly don't give a shit about anybody but yourself than you probably liked the last 8 years under the Bush regime.
If you are frightened to Death that you see the USA turning dark skinned by the day, that other religions and no religion at all is legal and would use fear, hate, intimidation, violence, fictional God and religion, lying, to force another outcome than you will miss the good old days of the former Bush regime.

So now we come, 7 months into the administration of President Barrack Hussein Obama. A man of skill, compassion, insight, wisdom, and integrity. A man for the people. The common folk. The people who actually built this country into Greatness. A man who gives hope through kindness and knowledge, not by threats. A man who reaches out with a handshake and not show a fist for violence.
The past 8 years under the Bush regime has crippled the USA very severely. Add to this past and current crisis the self serving Politicians in Washington who seem to be for themselves and their Corporate sponsors and not for Americans who must work for a living and pay bills.
Still there are new choices to be made, because they are there to make, they are options to use or not to use. But they are there if we chose them.
America is having some growing pains right now. There is a small intolerant, bigoted, racist minority who want things to stay the same as they were in the 50's, (FOX TV, Hannity, O'Reilly, Beck, Malkin, Colture, Rush etc...)and then you have the rest of us who know that "All things Change" all the time.
We will definitely get through this period in American History, but first we must cast aside the shackles of myopic republicanism or is that republican cannibalism?
Either way Republicans you lost the Presidential election. Go home, clean your guns ( I own guns too!) show some respect, go back and finish High School and just mellow the Hell out you bunch of White trash low lifes!
