No, I don't "hate" Obama, nor do I care one little bit about the color of his skin. I've never cared about anybody's skin color, and I'm not about to start doing so now. You won't find me calling any criticism of Obama "racist".
It'd be much easier for us to fulfill Dr. Martin Luther King's dream about color blindness if certain parties would stop screaming about it all the time.
More importantly: You seem to say that you'd like for our government to return to being a government by the people, of the people and for the people with the consent of the governed?
Great! Welcome aboard! We're absolutely, positively, right on the same side on that one. Absolutely no need for the two of us to be at each other's throats there, because we completely agree.
And, lest you think that I'm just ranting against the Democrats here, which I'm not, let me be the first to say that the Republicans haven't been much better. They're the ones who started off the whole Patriot Act nonsense which mutated from being a way of defending ourselves against further 9/11s into TSA agents molesting us and our children when we try to get on an airplane. The Republicans did nothing to stop that either, as a matter of fact it was a Republican Congress that created the TSA fool agency.
I guess that I'm saying that we, as a people, aren't being served well by either side, and I agree that that needs to change. Both parties are currently two chips off of the same rotten block of wood.
So calm down. We're on the same side here |
Please do not take it as if I think R's caused all the problem.
While I think they (R's) caused most of the problem (IMHO sorry), they (dems) are not truly blameless. Perhaps I am wrong. I can admit it if need be.
The D's are a problem too, they represent the same multiple headed Cerberus monster that is eating our countries wealth and prosperity.
It is almost like asking if you want to be hung or crucified, one is fast, the other is slow, both results in your death.
It saddens me that I feel so skeptical about my country. Maybe it is why i seem so revolutionary at times. We can change this.
Edit: This country needs more objective people, than knee jerk voters.
Like how Eddie Murphy got voted into office from simple name recognition in the movie "the Distinguished Gentleman"
Sure it is Hollywood, but too many uninformed voters exist to make that film plausible.
