Looking South

.
I have heard that when you are standing at the North Pole, no matter which direction you turn, you can only look south.

I never really thought much about those words until recently when I watched a documentary about the Cuban Missle crisis.  It seems the Russian Communist Party leader, Nikita Kheushchev, told that to President John Kennedy accusing the President of not being able to see any other view but his.  And so the world stood waiting for the End of Days to come.  And so close we were.  And so close we are now.  And now I know what that slogan means.

So true it was that our President's views today are much the same as JFK's some 50 years ago.  Obama has that that same inability to compromise with anyone, even those of his own Party.  His way or no way.  "Tax the rich or I won't agree to any fiscal budget," is what he blusters.  And that has gotten our Country nowhere.

But you know, it's not just Obama.  It is with most of our elected officials that have built a career into thier appointments.  Once they feel comfortable at the top of thier world, they can only look down on use as they refuse to compromise on anything that doesn't serve their personal needs.

And I'm tired of that.  That is not a democracy.  And that is the down turn of American politics.

So. I've said it before, I will not vote to re-elect any senior representive, Republican or other, who has demonstrated that "Looking South" attitude.  Any I encourage you to do the same.  You should already know who these idiots are.  So look up, but not to, them and vote them out.

America's Fault?

.

What is it that our leadership can't understand? Nearly all of Obama's cabinet is in denial that Islam is an enemy of America.

Hillary Clinton was quick to assert that it was an opinion of a lone American citizen that Muslims around the world to attack our embassies and murder innocent people. Hillary, referring to Islam as, "A great religion," apologized for the disgraceful making of an anti-Muslim film, while distancing our government from the incident.

Obama made several appearances where he blames our American freedoms that allowed the making of the film. In an address before the United Nations, Obama seemed ashamed of those very freedoms guaranteed by our Constitution as he appeared to be ashamed that he was powerless to stop the exercising of individual free speech

And Ms. Rice denied time an time again that the murders of our Ambassadors overseas were not perpetrated by terrorists.

The time has well passed that America stops hugging Muslims. All of Islam is governed by the Quran, which is incompatible with democracy and all other religious faiths. Since the Quran demands the murder of all infidels, it is certainly in itself, a terrorist organization.

It is what it is. And it should be treated accordingly. Where has our moral fiber gone?

Yet

Obama and his clan, can't seem to even use the word terrorism, yet can only apologize for America's Freedom of Speech.

Immediately following the Fort Hood massacre Obama encouraged us not judge the incident as terrorism, yet he labled the arrest of his Black friend by a White cop as racist.

Obama calls to end the death penalty for even the most outrageous of crimes, yet he approves of the murders of innocent unborn children as a means of birth control.

Obama declares he will cause bankruptcy to the entire coal industry, yet he funds billions of dollars to several wind and solar failures.

Obama labels George Zimmerman as a racist bigot, yet he dismisses the charges against Black Panther leaders for voter intimidation.

Obama gets caught on tape making a secret promise to a Soviet official, yet he refuses to meet with our strongest middle east ally, Israel.

Obama pledged transparency in his administration, yet he uses his executive privileges to cover Eric Holder's lies about Fast & Furious.

Obama claims he saved jobs by using our dollars to save GM, yet he refuses to disclose what the auto unions spent to elect him.

Obama claims he is an American, yet he refuses to provide a birth certificate.

We knew all of this four years ago, yet we may re-elect him in spite..

Nobody Noticed

.
A few days ago we tripped over the Coastal Range into the bigger city to get supplies.  It's our monthly ritual to break-a-way from our tourist/retirement community to shop and enjoy the more enjoyable (if you can call it that) advantages of an inland city such as movie theaters, mega stores. and chain restaurants.

So as we entered the Lowes store to shop for deck lighting, I saw a group of three college aged boys.  These lads were dressed in the standard "Occupy Eugene" dress of soiled and baggy clothes, long hair and pimply faces.

Now it seemed that Nobody Noticed that these pukes were out of place in a place like this.  Having never done a chore at home, or earned a wage of any kind, they knew not the difference between a shovel and a bag of manure.  Perhaps that is why they were lurking near the candy bars stocked near an exit.

As time passed, so they passed by us while we were looking at the decks lights.  Now it seemed that Nobody noticed that they were each carrying several candy bars.  Now who shops for candy bars in a home improvement store anyway?

As we were in line to pay for our purchase, they happened upon us again.  But this time, only one was holding a single candy bar.  Now it seemed that Nobody Noticed.  And as they realized that I was studying them intensely, one told the accomplice holding the lone candy bar that he put his bars back because he didn't have money to pay for them.  Now, how odd was that?

And so I was angered that I was paying for the items they stole.  You see, most stores don't even stop shoplifters any more, but simply build in their losses into the goods we all purchase.

And it seemed that Nobody Noticed that they drove slowly (probably looking for a purse to snatch) through the parking lot in their dirty pile of crap card with bald tires, broken windows and a dragging muffler.  And I was angered that I was also about to pay increased insurance premiums to cover their next hit and run accident.

An hour later and 30 miles toward the coast, we came across a plume of smoke.  And Nobody Noticed that the smoke and fire was caused by that blue buggy those boys were driving that was now fully ablaze along side the road.

And I realized that I would late for dinner and the Presidential debate.  And I realized that 3 US Forrest Service Fire rigs, 2 State Police cars, 1 County ambulance, and two County Fire rigs arrived to safely remove the hazard.  And I realized that later a road crew would come to repair the recently re-paved road and new guard rail.  And I realized that I was again to pay for these individuals that have never worked or contributed a single thing to society.

And I was angered.  But Nobody Noticed.
