Getting Closer To Tuesday

I came across this video and just had to share.

Have you ever heard the expression better to laugh than cry ? Sometimes after sitting here reading the blogs from both sides of the political spectrum, and flipping between Fox News, and then trying to stomach what Chris Mathews and Maddows and that bunch is trying to sell sometimes makes me want to throw all my stuff out the door.

Everyone has an opinion, and the news has turned into an opinion program, everyone starts with a small percentage of the fact, and then runs in the direction that's suits their own agenda.

Left and Right wing bloggers have slipped into a mud slinging contest over who did what, and what side are the bigger thieves and liars.

I have a news flash for everyone, they are all as crooked as a dogs hind leg. The broken promises, and the money that has been spent, and all those stupid programs that they allow our money to go to, come on, we have been abused for years. The place is overrun with lobbyist ready to corrupt the lawmakers and sway them to vote against the people, and when they are locked away in those " hallowed halls " they are kept safe from the regular folks that would grab them and make them accountable as to what they have done.

It's not only D.C. but has filtered down to the state level as well, and worked it way to the city and county level as well.

I can tell you why the left fears the Tea Party and its members, it is because they have no leader. It is a group of people, a body of one. Their is folks that organize functions and events, and handles various things for the group, but there is no one leader.

The Tea party has a very loud voice, and that loud voice has a very large boot attached to it, and I believe that it is exactly what is needed to kick some people out of the way to get this mess cleaned up.

Obama made a comment once about cleaning up once before, but he failed to mention that he helped make the mess, the Democrats have been in office since 2006, and he had been voting with them before he got the job he has now.

Obama supporters say " He's only been in there two years, give him some time "

How much more time do you want to give him ? I think he has spent enough money and caused enough damage

Is this just my opinion ? Yeah, and it's looking like the opinion of about 75% of the rest of the Country.

I am glad to see you folks start to wake up !

Say what you think, not yell

What would you put up with ? How far are you willing to go ? In our united states, we are allowed a say, our voice to be heard, to speak out against issues and actions that we disagree with. But are we allowed to speak it in the right place and to the right person ? What if only a small group of people had the same disagreement, maybe to few to be noticed or heard. Do they count? I think they do. And I am glad that forums like this exist to make it possible to get a message out. I read your messages, and I contemplate your views without judgement, so never think that you are not heard. That being said, I would go as far as praising someone who is willing to publish their beliefs and try to bring out a wrong that has gone unnoticed. I can put up with views that are different than mine, but I draw the line at someone criticizing me for what I believe and trying to change my opinion. I will not make a snap judgement on issues, I will take the time to get the facts and become informed before I settle in to an opinion. Today, I came out from the store and had obsenities yelled at me because of a sticker on the back of my truck. The sticker announced my choice for candidate, which I believe I am entitled to display. I can tolerate a thumbs down, or maybe a sour face, but why the cursing and name calling ? Is that freedom of speech ? I think not. But that is just my opinion. I was free to shrug it off and not make a scene. To go home and light my grill and BBQ my pork chops and corn on the cob. To turn on the TV I have out on my back porch and watch the Simpsons and Sinefield. To enjoy my ice tea and feel the breeze blow through my porch. Freedom is a fantastic thing, allthough it has different meanings for different people. My one voice will be heard on election day, and I will be happy with whatever the outcome. I am happy that we are free to at least have the choice. That's my thought for today, peace, love, and BBq pork chops
