Jesus
said, "My command is this: Love one another as I have loved you. Greater
love has no man than this that he lay down his life for his friends. You are my
friends if you do what I command." (John 15:12-14)

It is such a quandary watching the cable news analyst ; it
dawns on me watching them arguing with advocates for each side. Past
administrations in 20th Century didn’t have to contend with a 24/7
news cycle and syndicated radio personalities bought and paid for by
Billionaires who love guns, worship money and hate the government with the
poor. John Kennedy would have been impeached
for his behavior and we all forgot when Congress gave Earmarks for their
congressional home states oh makes you appreciate the good ole days because
they could get a vote YEA for an earmark.
LBJ and even Lincoln used bribes Congressional Leaders to
get votes back in those days. POTUS can’t
use those tactics in the 21st Century. It
wasn’t a reality TV show back then it was Hardball Politics and it’s always
been dirty and corrupt. They are worse
than the La Costa Nostra aka the Mafia Organized Crime. Only they get titles and respectability to
take no prisoners and all the money floats to the top. Like a pyramid scheme of sorts. Statesman
dressed up with a microphone.
Yes, they are Spinning wheels and everybody sounds good but
truth is I get angry because they are arguing for the camera and we out here in
the public are watching from the sidelines and observe how the Republican Party
and all its separate factions bit by bit destroy OUR government.
Many of marketing executives and people who take polls gather
information in order to create buzz words and catch phrases to lure in not
uneducated but people whose attention span can only cling to without a lot of
details. Then you have the ones who are
strategist they are deemed with how to disseminate the information to a certain
audience they also like to “win” because winning is everything.
We live in a nation that promises every US citizen a chance
at life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness/ prosperity “The American Way”
but they don’t bother to tell you that it only applicable to a few and based on
certain terms and conditions. It’s
unfortunate that most of the US Citizens who live by these promises and others
who while CSPAN camera’s and prayers by the House Chaplin pledge allegiance to
the Flag of our Nation go to work and never draft 1 Bill but take copy from Lobbyist
who are backed up by Billionaire funded organizations like the Heritage
Foundation Americans for Prosperity, and the newly anointed “Tea Party” actually
did offered two retired US Senator a chance to become the head of their
organization for lots of $$$. Freedom Works organized the Tea party movement who also did the same for another US Representative that retired who
served on a National level as Speaker of the House forced out with dividends from that non-profit organization, and last but not least Karl Rove who hails from the great state of Texas as do our Billionaire friends & poster boy Shutemdown himself Ted Cruz.
Okay; We won’t name call or call names but I will make references to tax paid Elected officials who will not suffer any repercussions
from this maneuver of an organized coo of our government which was sanctioned
by the US Supreme Court when they ruled that Citizens United was able to gain unlimited
funding for causes and candidates. Many of these GOP leaders and caucus members heavily invested in what happens on Wall Street & K Street.
With One main cause point of order Destroy a President and suffocate his Administration and take back the
one accomplishment that is sure to written in history “how he saved a nation
from worst recession in history and signature legislation “The Affordable Care
Act.” Eradicate him demean and belittle; They have handbooks NY Times
exposed this Shutdown as a planned event which the right wing sees as a game of
Chicken.
Realistically speaking, most average Americans cannot afford
but a small donation for a Nationwide candidate or local candidate
contributions are limited but most average American citizens who are
financially challenged cannot afford to donate to these causes and
concerns.
Our Nation is being dictated
by a small conglomerate of individuals in Congress and in the Boardroom with conspiracy and plots to undermine the USA which began way back when George W. Bush
ran for office in 2000 he was elected and the first order of business was to
gut the Nations surplus you got $300 or $400 but wealthy America got TAX CUTS
and became more rich and more powerful.
Next unfortunate tragedy was 911 and although politics were set
aside.
The Republican Majority ran all branches of Government in 2000 the
House of Representatives, the Senate, and White House. US Supreme court Justice was appointed by conservative
right wing President which was also well laid out plan to overturn historical
laws from past deliberated by US Supreme Court rulings from 50’s and 60’s one
recent challenges overturned was to the Voting Rights Act ‘65.
Why? Well many would
say because it shocked the entire Nation when an African American bi-racial
Male named Barack Hussein Obama appeared almost out of nowhere but, he was
already a rising star but he stepped onto the national political stage and blazed
a trail straight to the US Senate. He
went further when the Democratic Party nominated him for President in 2008.
No person believed that he the sitting 44th
President of the United States of American would be named Barack Hussein Obama,
yes he did. Although it was a moment in
time for most African Americans who families go back many, many generations who
had born slavery, and segregation. A lot
of older people Baby Boomers have lived through the assassination of the first
young President name Kennedy; then to see Malcolm X and Martin Luther King, JR
then Robert F Kennedy men who genuinely cared about the condition of our Nation
and our people the poorest.
They also
believed we could rise above our differences to become an even greater and
better nation. We honor and celebrate
their contributions stadiums, streets, highways, schools, and museums even a
monument to MLKJ stands right is triangulated between of three great Presidents
who cared about our Nation future George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and
Abraham Lincoln. All who faced odds but live
on in infamy.
America she has Wealth, Blessed
& Highly Favored by GOD puts it on everything even her Money “In GOD WE
Trust”
I said a long prayer tonight for a lot of people who I love,
admire and care about mostly family. Then
I prayed a petition to GOD for the House of Representatives the Republican
party
I see this situation and relate it to liken the story of Moses when he
had to go into Egypt and tell Pharaoh “Let my people Go” human suffering
Hebrews were in bondage and had all the wealth and gifts from GOD but they were
being held against their will. Moses was
a rare human being he had the privilege to live as a Prince of Egypt yet he was
Hebrew born. When he discovered that he
was spiritually connected to these people it took him awhile to realize his
purpose that GOD placed before him and even with a speech impediment he managed
to face down the most powerful person in the world at that time Pharaoh. It was said that the Egyptian leader was
stubborn and refused to give in to Moses even though he told him GOD had sent
him to free HIS people.
Well the moral of the story is that stubbornness is
sometimes part of the plan; GOD is in control of this situation with our
government. I write blogs to express my
1st amendment at the same time it’s full of truth.
President Obama was raised in America not
Kenya spent time in foreign lands so he could be able to relate to all humans
not just a certain “group.” There many in my own
community who believe him illegitimate because he is 1st generation
African American. Yes, but 10 percent will
get you in no matter who your mother is or was in the racial scheme of things
so being raised in Kansas, then Hawaii doesn’t qualify you as authentically “Black”
especially if your father is an African just coming to American in the 60’s.
He has shown his compassion for being an
American he is proud to be whom he is and what he represents is what White
America hates he is one of them. Well,
this brings me to a larger issue and back to my point. The day President Obama & his First Lady
Michelle were dancing to “At Last” there sat in a room men who upset about the
notion of 1st African American living inside the White House and at
this time the country had in 2007 facing
the worse financial crisis since 2005 ENRON you probably forgot that’s the
first scandal saw a lot of average Americans who worked for them lost
retirement savings, health care all of it gone.
Then Wall street, AIG and the rest of the JP Morgan Stanley’s were in a
bigger crisis that almost devastated this country by 2008 right after the
election. Real Estate debacle most
Americans who are upper middle class want to forget, but many lower middle families
still suffering from the loss of 401K mutual funds and home mortgages that are
tied up in Government bailout programs waiting for assistance or who have
already lost their homes and are now living in smaller dwellings apartments are
hard to find these days. TARP was upon
this President and his 1st administration before President Bush left
office, and yet another TARP 2009 right after he took the oath of office. Then the first standoff with the republican
party 2011 these same men who plotted in a backroom had Billionaires on board
to ensure they would not see this administration succeed at any turn.
Well, the fruits of GOP’s labor has now come home to roost. Tea Party House Republicans and their
Leadership how would they react if this should happen today Wall street dives,
and housing market crashes as in 2007 will these rabid group of Republicans
vote to save our Country would they pass a TARP type bill to avoid our country
downfall.
The answer is NO. They would rather see the American people
suffer before they vote to save a Nation because they despise our President and
the health care bill doesn’t offer “Free Insurance” it offers you choices and
prevents the Insurance companies from denying you coverage because of age,
illness, or ability to pay (bad credit).
Mandated by LAW passed in both houses and the Republicans fought for “individual
mandate” it was a set up because now they’re fighting against what amendment
they put in this bill, the Democrats wanted Public option which would have
looked more like socialized medicine all of us would be on Medicaid based on
your financial assets ability to pay.
So
here we are facing Government Shutdown and a threat not to pay national debt by
raising spending cap. It’s not going
well for either branch of government right now.
But the sad ending to this story is that I and a lot of others are the
carnage while the Billionaires ride it out because they can afford all of the
things we struggle for each day and earn by showing up and being accountable at
a workplace or as a Civil Servant.
Being
a Civil Servant is an honorable job and in the coming weeks America will come
to appreciate them more once they realize more services are not available. We just had an outbreak and CDC has to bring
back scientist and researchers from furlough to prepare salmonila spreading to over 270 Americans just today.
WAKE UP
get ready to turn it around in 2014 we have to remain engaged in the political
process “We the People” hire send to Washington our representatives we elect a
President every 4 years and Senate. I
fought hard for this President to do what he said and the forces from right are
determined to make I and others pay for that decision by taking away what
little we do have from when Bush Administration cleaned out the National
Treasury with two unpaid War theatre’s, Medicare prescription Bill, and No
child left behind. No budget
appropriation was passed they CR the whole damn thing and a Vice President left
office $99 million dollars richer then when he walked in 2000 and ruined our
National reputation around the world.
We
are now hated in most countries, and we help everybody around the world they
depend on USA us!
We have the means to
end this now why not stop forcing your will on the people the little people who
can’t fight Billionaires but they honestly believe that their vote as in FAITH
counts for something. To the Billionaire's
and those Rich Brothers, FOX News, CBN, TBN ask WWJD. Look in the mirror when you ask that question
then Open up the Government and Compromise with your brethren. We represent the Human Race. GOD didn’t hate anyone nor does his Son Jesus
Christ. Remember Moses said it first “Let
my people go.”
