I'll try to divest myself of any religious message even though one cannot escape the underpinnings of this horrendous situation and try to write to the situation which is reality today for us and for the world. I realize that my writings are not popular for the majority, hence my reads are from my regulars. For the most part they who read my work agree with me. However as a writer I try to reach as many as possible with my message. That can never be if it does not air. Controversial perhaps, but a person if free to accept the premise or not. Yet it is reality, truth, fact regardless, as it is before us all and that they cannot dispute.
Now part of that truth is that many elected our new president on the hope mind you things would be better and yes different once he took office. We hopefully did not elect him strictly on race but on ability, character, works and yes trust.
Now in fairness to him he is not yet in office. However, one must also be fair to We the People and we who write to economic and other issues that he has, regardless of your love affair with him, been at the center of much of much of what has happened to this nation since he became a Senator. Why do I say that? Well I don't, his record does. All one has to do is to go back to many of my earlier articles to see I have been consistent for years with my message. I am not a Republican or Democrat and as I have stated see no difference in the lot. Only superficial variables. He also has confirmed that by his recent speeches and action plans. Once again not me, him.
That being said our new president stated just last evening we are facing challenges of unprecedented scale. If action is not taken now the economy will suffer for years and a years. So as I sit and ponder I am really in shock and awe as to why the majority of us don't and didn't evidently see the forest for the tree's, or do we and we do not care? That is not an unfair question to ask and certainly one that should not raise ones dander. He is man and as a public figure, he is open to scrutiny as are all who enter that domain and because we disagree with his policies, ideology, goals and works does not mean a person is racist. Quite the contrary. Perhaps it is the person taking the offense to fact. Attack him, no, comprehend what I am saying, I am just bringing facts. I personally think he is a nice young man a with a beautiful family. That does not make him a leader. Can he be a leader for the world, perhaps, but not in my opinion on the train he is riding.
What do I mean by that? Well once again, you shall know them by their works. That should be enough. So where is the help for homeowners? Where is the curtailment of usury? Where is the help for people in distress, the elderly, young families, those without jobs, just where? Forget and leave religion out of this where is decency, character, integrity?
So when he, mind you, he selects a majority of "that same old Washington Crowd" to be his advisers, save a few here or there, one has to think hard about what change we will get. I define this further at the end of this article in a quote from today's AP. Hey, this is fact. Ok let me put this to you this way, you can't teach and old dog new tricks. Here is another quote right off the AP press from that same old Washington crowd he was so right about.
"They were especially critical of a proposed $3,000 tax credit for companies that hire or retrain workers." The they his fellow Democrats. Do your really believe this lot any of them, really, why?
Now as I have already mentioned, he comes in light but in my opinion he brings us the dark. Why the dark? Well perhaps he was right all along about that same old Washington crowd and he too trusted in them too much? Perhaps it is intentional well I suspect just a mistaken ideology and indoctrination ans yes belief. Only ones opinion. Why do I say that? One word answers that, bailout. The man pushed them lock stock and barrel and to help Americans, need I go further? I ask just who was helped? Oh not him right? Ok why even talk?
Here is another one most of us, that is if we care to recall, at least 81% or more of us, who were mind you adamant and who didn't want Comprehensive Immigration hear it coming right off of his lips as a high priority. Why is this a priority for him, just why? The reasons there for those who know the real facts. Rhetorically does he comprehend the message as a public servant of the people who elected him? Oh that was then and this is now, I see. Forgive and forget.
So now that we have taken the massive debt off of the banks and investors and placed it squarely on the shoulders of all Americans and their children for generations to come we evidently got change. Not the change we expected but in truth change. Now that we have nationalized the automakers. Yes, the same ones making cars in China and elsewhere we are to believe we are not a Socialist Nation. Yes and those auto workers who voted for him, well you didn't read the fine print either, take less. Now that we have done nothing about usury, something Mr. Obama did not vote on and he now says his hands are clean, really. Now that the bankruptcy courts can run you through the dust while business gets to walk away and start fresh and that he had nothing to do with, which Hillary did. I think she is a trusted adviser as is our new VP, Biden? Now that we must make serious cuts, like oh yes Medicare and Social Security, how strange, if it is to survive, Yes and Americans, well they just must learn that these are tough times, really. I can't believe they even have the gall to say that, really. Well, why go on? Even the Pornography business wants a bailout.
They stand there and speak about "fixing" the system, a system mind you that made us the greatest power in the world and all of a sudden like magic failed, yea right. Yes and WPA only with a different name. Go back and read history it is right there. Yes and with whose money? Oh what choice does he have they handed this to him. Well is he that incompetent? Is it that you think he really had no part in this? Ok, why bother.
So we got and are getting the change we evidently wanted and evidently expected. Why, we didn't bother to read the fine print I don't know but as the judge will tell you "let the buyer beware". Its all legal. So yes, didn't you read the back of the receipt, it says it right there. Oh, didn't you read the bottom of the advertisement, it is right there in print. Get the message, let the buyer beware and evidently we didn't bother to look, we trusted in the package. We bought the shiny, new and sparkling package that sounded great but now that we have it we are wondering does it really do what it said it can or would do?
Well as I just stated, trust no man. Why the signs, symbols, deeds all about you. Once again choice accept or deny. Nothing personal just reality.
Now I'll end with a prediction I already wrote to. Israel and the Arabs will make peace right after inauguration sometime within 6 months. It will be brokered by the US but ratified by Europe. Why Europe, because Israel looks to Europe not to us any longer as their economic partner. Just read the fine print to determine that. We for protection, Europe for economics. [The Mediterranean Union] what's that, seek and you shall find.
Why peace. Well the Arabs need us for oil money. Secondly the Sunni Muslims fear Iran [Persia] yes their mortal enemy mind where Israel is no longer and God, well he will have to take a back seat for now, to this bunch, peace and security more important. So it behooves them to get peace accomplished.
Obama, well he will push the Oslo accords already in place as he has stated openly. He will provide a nuclear umbrella over Israel, as he has stated already. Israel doesn't need one they have their own nukes. He is all for the invasion of Gaza as he has stated. The Palestinians on the West bank already bought into the deal. Israel has not choice, her population is diminishing not growing and to maintain an autonomous Israel she will have to make a hard deal. Hamas and anyone allied with Iran gone [for now]. Hey not my wild concepts, or idea's on the front pages of newspapers everywhere.
So Hillary and Europe will broker the peace. They must for the Economic World Order to move forward. Yes and it will be hailed by the world and yes you who voted for him, a fact. He will ascend to "world leader". Why would anyone be against peace? Certainly not and that is the point, real peace no. However, I believe the Europeans will finally make the peace and guarantee Israel's security.
So before you get upset with this messenger all I do is present information for you to grapple with. No advertisement for any of them just what is printed, fact, out there for you to go and find out for yourself. I condemn none of them personally while I will admit I disagree with some, not all, of their ideology or plans. I do provide an opinion but one you can accept or reject, choice. So to close I provide an excerpt just today from the AP:
The president-elect cast blame on "an era of profound irresponsibility that stretched from corporate boardrooms to the halls of power in Washington." But he added, "The very fact that this crisis is largely of our own making means that it is not beyond our ability to solve."
So in fairness to him what is left? As I stated last year we are at the precipice and there is little to nothing left of what we once were as a nation, fact. Now our money, oh I'm sorry your money is all they have left. Now in my opinion of course, they could care less for those who get and need Medicare because they don't have anything to give. They care less for those who need Social Security because, well frankly, they don't have it to give. No it all comes down to YOU WHO HAVE. It really is simply speaking, reality.
My final question is this. If this fails what is left? Also, perhaps, just maybe he will see the light of what he has been saying all along?
