Elections

Again once more there are elections upcoming.  I am happy that the Republican Presidential Nominee slot will still be open when this Super Tuesday comes.  I remember feeling really angry and distressed that we had no say in choosing Senator McCain as the nominee in 2008.  I am a nonenity as far as the Republican Party is concerned.  They call the house and ask for money, but they really don't give a flying fig about my life, my opinion or my fears of the creeping socialism that is ruining this country for my children and grandchildren and beyond.

I do not watch (if I can avoid) it any main stream media news and I avoid the propaganda of Hollywood.  I wouldn't watch the Oscars unless I was paid a large sum of money.  I am insulted by their elitist attitude. 

I and my contemporaries have fewer excuses for being fooled by the liars that are holding the microphone today.  Maybe the uneducated of the past could be forgiven for hearing a Walter Cronkite or some movie star espouse nonsense and buying it.  I think that for the most part what the left espouses is easier and more appealing in the short run.  I reject it.  I am not interested in the easy lie.  I think the easy lie leads to misery...I have such sympathy for Whitney Houston and other celebrities who were sold the lie of "feel" better by prescription drugs that eventually killed them.  All lies of this nature kill eventually...they kill bodies, spirits, hope and dreams.  If you don't believe me, take a look around a Democratically controlled state or city...there is a lot of death and disappointment. 

Something given to us never means as much or grows us the way something we earn or accomplish.
