The real bottom line that NO ONE and I DO MEAN no seems to be able of addressing even with all the writing posturing and presenting idea's, opinions, perspective is that this nation has been ruled by the same people for years, decades if not even longer. The nitty gritty of it all is there is no difference across the isle. The very same people day in and day out in any number of jobs, positions, committees. assignments from Congress to the Cabinet to advisor's, to Ambassadors to whatever. Yes the very same. Think to, go back to the year books and check their resume.
Yet, those who elect these same types, election after election but never seem to know who voted for them because "I sure as hell didn't' never seem to realize that the program, agenda, goal, ideology moves forward. Yes ignorance, stupidity, lack or concern, indoctrination, a lack of reasoning whatever, the same ideology every election.
Now here is this super star of change, I leave McCain out because well he is a tried and true old Washington type, yet Obama runs around talking about "that Washington Crowd" and making change and the first real decision he has to make he picks a Washington insider. Someone who has been there for decades and "knows the ropes".
For us, the bovine, to think this isn't orchestrated is well in my opinion to not use even the tiniest bit of intelligence or common sense, especially in these times. The people in the know understood this candidate didn't have the tools for some of the major events right over the horizon so they gave him, well, lets be frank "a Washington Insider". Yes and all of you who will vote for him will zoom right past what I just said and jump literally for joy. yes the same one who couldn't convince you he should become your candidate you place in the second seat. Yes and now, overnight, good choice. Ok you can close it now.
Yet by reading article after article for Obama and why people are voting for him lets really get down to why, he is black and it is history and they like the Easter Bunny. Oh my, how dare I say that. Well it is what it is. The minorities that hope for a black president, for whatever the reason and are registered, that 50% of all who do vote are already in the box. The whites, the new coming minority who vote, consisting of the uninformed and the haves, want McCain. So now we get the proverbial race to the wire to see who will pull it out.
Who really gives damn. Well for my nations sake I do but what choices do we have? No for all you who really think this is about America verses the Global dream it really does not matter. LOOK, if you can SEE, these are the very same people. Sure a few issues like abortion stand between them but where the tire meets the road and I don't give a damn what that is, they will vote the same. Hey their record demonstrates exactly that, HELLO.
Those who want more "smaller government" well they're the hands off, I made it, I have it group, that is for NOW and how they got where they are today isn't the issue at all. I am sure many came up the hard way and they want to maintain what they earned the hard way. NO problems with any of that but to dream about a smaller government, give me a break. They run on the platform and then after being elected the size grows until about the next election and then the trimming starts, for a few months and then back to business as usual. So while I can agree totally with many on that, it just won't be unless We the People make that change.
Why, well simply you can't run a socialist system with less workers and so you need to look at the agenda. Look at the system we have, just look. It is not true Capitalism it is a hodgepodge of it all. Business and government working hand in hand, patriotism, police surveillance increased and on and on and they are re going to add more.
So for those of you voting on noble ideals, history making black president, I wish it were the right one. Hey he looks good and speaks great but I want you to know if in my opinion he had what it takes, his record, his works, not what he says, would show that. No not years ago, NOW. While he is in Congress. I really and truly wish it did but it doesn't and that is the truly sad part of it all.
Now many will doubt my reasons, but those who know me know I say it as it is. I really do not give one damn about race, religion, gender I want someone who can lead and for America first. In that we all win. I highlighted first.
In my opinion he is not the man for these times. Now don't get me wrong, as Russia rattles McCain will grow in stature. Why, one word says it all CHURCHILL. Yes Winston was not highly thought of until the saber was rattled after the "peace in our time" speech. Can it be as Russia threatens us, close to our very shores, [have you read some of my other articles and read the latest on Cuba] that this man gets elected? I haven't even spoken to Venezuela.
Yes and the same, exactly the same with a few, one of two different will go back to Washington and yes if Mr. Obama gets in, well guess what. That's right, he will work closely, as he always has, with all of them. Why, because the nitty gritty of it all is there is no difference across the isle.
