Social Justice and Economic Justice. If you own your home or business or farm, these are scary words - sort of a death knell. Social justice and economic justice.
If you look them up - Google or Wikipedia - you'll find exactly what they mean. Don't take my word for it. You'll see why folks seem overly concerned about the direction America is headed.
Why I think it is ultimately important for President Obama tobecome More American - and really succeed as our President.
I think this is important. Why? Well, I remember how I felt on 9-11. We were all, finally, one race of people - the human race, and united against the new evils of the world that hit New York, killing the 3,000.
Of course, that only lasted until those who made their living race-baiting, went to work on the minorities just to keep their status. That is my opinion. So we lost all the ground. You know who they are as they show up on most of the mainstream media getting their poison out.
Then Obama was elected president and that was a good thing. Where were all the people claiming that a minority couldn't rise up in the ranks if they worked at it? They hardly even supported his candidacy! And they were very, very quiet now, with the race issue. And we were back tonormal.
I think the new president gave minorities hope there wasn't this churned up - mostly from inside race - racism they would have to conquer. Rap stars slowed and nearly ceased disgusting rhetoric on cop killing, whitey, etc.
But it didn't last but 7 months and those who make their living on sensationalism or slanted news just couldn't let it be either - the president doing a job and getting slapped around like all presidents do. Now its all race-based.
I disagree with just about everything he does as I don't want to see creeping Marxism corrupt America, but what I did was questioned whether my objections were race-based.
Am I against Obama's policies because he's black? Don't know, yet. I took it to the next step and said, "Ok, lets pretend Obama isn't black, he's white." Would I still go along with his program." No. I like my farm and my land and I do not want to share it with anyone as I worked for it - they did not. I failed and lost everything three times but I made it back. And I don't like his "redistribute the wealth" idea via the social and economic justice you see in all their sub-organizations' rhetoric (mission statements).
Then I asked myself the ultimate question, and you may want to do the same if you are a left-leaner, independent or a liberal - or just call yourself a Democrat.
So sit down, take a few deep breaths, a sip of water as the tester straps a lie detector to your arm.
The needle on the detector shows a mild, jiggly line as he asks you the standard questions for readings on your normal state. But you know the question's coming - and you're beginning to sweat. He asks a few more questions, more political, easy ones. And then he asks it:
"Would you vote for Obama's Healthcare plan if he was George Bush?
Silence and introspection. Butterflies in the abdomen. Brain begins twisting and throbbing.
"Would you vote for healthcare policies if they were George Bush's ideas?
Now I've made you uncomfortable. But you answer.
He scribbles in his notebook, looks over the top of his glasses at you. Scribbles some more in his notes.
Then he asks another. You're sweating and shaking and because he sees the line starting to rise, he asks:
"Would you vote for Heathcare if the bill was George Bushe's ....but George Bush was an African American?"
The needle is getting really wacky now and red ink sputters from the tiny jet. You can't see straight and the blood is pounding in your neck.
"Would you vote for the bill if Bush was president today and George Bush was a black man? "What is your answer- yes or no?" If the needle says you're lying we take everything you own. Those were the conditions you accepted. Even your flat screen tV and remote. And your business income.
The subject faints dead away. It's just too confusing to his gut.
Introspection. What would we do without it?
