Stop global warming, get rid of nuclear weapons, change race relations, find new alternative fuels, fix the economy, invent new types of transportation, fix the trade im-balance, this is the moment the world must answer the call for a new middle east. This is the moment we must support those who somehow are not able support themselves with higher taxes and redistribution of wealth, this is the moment when a man who is not yet president of the United States goes to other countries and speaks to the people and the governments of those countries as if he’s already is president. This is the time when an ineffective former senator and lifeless ameba of a vice president becomes an authority on something that he then preaches to the masses that he wants all of us to do and yet he doesn’t even practice what he preaches. And we give this guy awards for a movie and a Nobel Prize when my cat has a higher level of intelligence then him. And this is a time when I wonder what the hell is going on with human kind. I understand idealism, I understand compassion, and I understand the give and take of idea’s working with other countries for the greater good. But when we have political figures going around the world tell all who want to listen about how horrible our country is and how we somehow “owe” the rest of the world a big apology for screwing everything up. I start to get a tad, annoyed. Atrocities against people and planet are taking place all over the world every day. In North Korea, the Middle east, China, eastern Europe, Africa, South America, and just about every corner of the world. Pollution, war, oppression, ethnic cleansing, corruption, and a myriad of other types of devastation threaten the existence of all living things. And yet it seems that we are supposed to believe that we Americans are the ones who must pay for it all. We are the problem, not the solution and if we could just change our ways the whole world will be better all the sudden. I will admit we have done more than others to contribute to the world ill’s but I will never let that be said without the rest or the world acknowledging the overwhelming  amount good we have done as a nation and a people.      I don’t really know which candidate will be the one to help our country through the tough times we are in right now but I do know one or two things for sure. I will not support anyone who thinks we have to be the world’s whipping boy and on the domestic side, I will not give the government one dime more in taxes when I see how badly they spend what they have already tossed out the window. I am of the belief that we do need “change” but if change is going backwards as we circle the planet, kissing asses at every whistle stop that’s not change for the good. I’m voting NO on the world ass kissing tour and yes to America rallying to the call and meeting the challenges facing the world and leading the way to better things for everyone and by the way maybe we can pick up a little pocket change along the way. It is truly the time for that once again!
