Watching the Nation undergo surgical strikes at capitalism and on real truths, or cutting away what you don’t like without consent is what’s happening. Now.
I was horrified to find out that many people don’t want to know. They purposefully keep themselves ignorant so they, “Have a SMILY FACE Day”.
That ain't gonna get ‘er done.
You know what I am really concerned about? In our society, especially this politically charged one where we are having to expunge Communist/Marxist from the President’s hand-selected advisors?
Golfers. Men Golfers. Especially Men Golfers who are married with kids. You know who they are.
Their golfing. They’re pissing and moaning about how they get a slice or a lousy chip shot, or they cry because they went over par, bang at a little ball with a stick for hours at a time and pop anti-depressants because they fudged a score and don’t know why. It’s all very “The Last 300 Spartans” to them. I think they should at least write their congressman or Senator, too.
I played golf in college for a semester, a few times here and there throughout my life, played at Settlers Bay in Wasilla, home of Sarah Palin (I fished in her lake and lived about 15 miles away so we are from the same ilk so to speak - Alaskans), San Diego (Tecalote Canyon where I hole in oned the last hole with a six iron), and gorgeous Taft or some godforsaken place in the California desert. So at least I don’t have my face pressed against the Candy Store Golf Shop window.
Everybody deserves a chance to relax. Golf probably can be relaxing. But don’t they see? Where all this is going - the political direction? I mean, if "the Ultimate State" is going to start telling farmers how much water they can use and for what crop (we own our own well, too), do you really think that golf courses are going to fly under the radar? Those golf courses would make very nice community gardens or affordable housing for the newly wealthy poor who can swing a home through ACORN (now defunct due to corruption). Think I’m kidding? We, as farmers are already feeling the tentacles at work behind the scenes even in California as this is where much of the nation’s food is grown. And due to the population and drought, a dwindling water supply. You may live in Michigan where there's plenty of water, but your food comes from here.
Am I overreaching on the golf thing? It’s symbolic. And I will use the Death Panels (Doctors who are paid to consult with the elderly - which you shall be someday - on your choice in life - die or live another ten years). And lets say that that Death Panel choice is at the age of 70. This year. How many years will they cut from your parents life if the Health Care overload is driving us deeper into the hole?
Remember what Obama said - that if they find they cannot fund Health Care at a certain point, they will strip from elsewhere to make ends meet.
Yes, all this is headed somewhere: Lowering longevity and using your Social Security to pay for another's health. And of course the rationing you all are seeing now with the flu shots.
Women over 40, Single, Who Want Freedom, Experiences and Their Life Back
In reality, I think this whole thing is going to be rescued by the women. Men seem to save themselves for football, golf, basketball, and soccer and other spectator sports that require a beer to get the feel of living. Beer goggles.
These are spectator sports. Our political system - we are making it a spectator sport that we cry and hurrah over depending on who wins but what men don’t realize - and women do - is that you can’t walk away from this game; turn off the TV and the results disappear. When you open the door to your house, in a year, to a knock, you will wonder what they want this time - what will you have to give up or get a meter on to make sure you’re a good citizen.
This is it in a nutshell, without the symbols: You cannot grow an economy to create jobs without money. If the only growth is in government jobs, and government has never made money, only spent it, then that money is not available for the current economy to thrive.
So women, forget the men if they seem to love their spectator sports a bit much . But that ain’t going to save this country from the Van Joneses and the Acorns and the fellow that they are going to can or have canned (conflicting reports) from the White House for having that conference call (the knock at the door) that asked the National Endowment for the Arts and artists nationwide to commence art projects in support of Obama’s healthcare and other initiatives. No, its not harmless -- to create art to forward a government's policies. It's illegal, and can destroy the balance of nature. Political speech nature.
And if enough women care, I think they can make a good American out of our President. He seems to have the intellect and the chops - it's justhis mental well was poisoned long ago by surrounding himself with people like Bill Ayers (bombed the Pentagon), and the Rev. Wrights of his life, the ACORNS that fed him along the way up. He could be very good for the good old USA but right now, its pretty pathetic - what he’s doing not only to this country but to what will be the historical record for the first "man of color" President, Americans elected, and what he did with the newfound power and glory.
