To balance the bad in the world there must be good somewhere!. We have volunteer institutions, volunteers, and we have charity drives. We have medical facilities that keep the elderly and the young alive. It is all a part of American‘s giving spirit and generosity. Is there the same out there towards us, NO!
We joined World War 1 to help save the world from the oppressive society of the Germans at the time and then did it again in World War 2, not only fight Germany but Italy and Japan also. Then when we finally did defeat them in both cases, we extended our hand and rebuilt them all. Why? So today, we can call them friends right and compromise with them as well as deal with their bold ideas and make the world work. Well, I think somewhere along the time line we have to stop helping the world and help ourselves.
We need to learn also that policing another nation, and fighting their internal wars is none of our business either. We did this in two wars, that Americans never get credit for fighting and people are ashamed of admitting we were in. Korea and Vietnam both became stupid senseless battles where Americans lost their lives, for no reason other than to show we wanted to help and police them. Sadly millions of Americans are gone because Uncle Sam believes we were the mightiest nation and needed to step in. When will America learn?
Today America is still spread out over the world, with troops in Afghanistan, Iraq, and watching Iran. We sail the seven seas, we fly over nations and record all military fighting and we still try to walk gently and carry a big stick!, Why?
No one came in to help America when we had a Civil War killing off thousands of fine Americans ourselves for an internal struggle. And no folks, it wasn’t a Civil War originally being fought over Slavery at all, read up on it clearly, it became that after Lincoln Declared The Slaves Free. So no one helped Americans then did they? No one comes to our rescue in a financial crisis, or bails out our economy except us. No Germans, French, Italians, Greeks or anyone else goes oh look America is hurting why don’t we lend them a hand and give them billions and assistance. Yet we do it for everyone else, Why?
A part of being American is a generous spirit of caring and giving and all Americans know it as does the rest of the world when they look at us. Are Americans correct to be this way or are we just blinded by our own pride, and foolish enough to think others will care? You won’t see Great Britain doing all we do, Germany or Italy or Russia nor any of the countries we rebuilt or helped limp back to health after they created World Wars and Police Actions and more within and beyond their own borders. Why do we?
Solving America’s current crisis will take a Politician with courage, and guts, and balls. We need a Politician who can look at the rest of the world and tell them, we can’t live by the tariff and trade laws now set, we need them changed. We need to pull out of War Zones where there is no firm business of ours to be in and bring our troops and supplies home. Use all those billions of dollars we spend policing, and fighting others wars on rebuilding America’s Economy, America’s job market, America’ Health Programs and taking care of our own population and people. Lets end homelessness and hunger, lets teach our children in schools to be the best they can be, lets prepare them for the hard cruelty and honesty of the world and teach them to work and fight for what they believe in a smarter way. American’s need to stop babysitting and supporting the world and start to take care of our own.
Ok that said and out-of-the-way, Conrad Murray‘s Trial for the Death of Michael Jackson will be doing closing arguments today. Now I have heard some say he will not be convicted at all, that should be bullshit also. What kind of closing argument can a defense of this man have? Are they gonna deny he gave him drugs, are they going to deny he didn’t pay attention when he should have, are they gonna deny he took a contract for $150,000.oo dollars per month to administer, and provide drugs to a man, already addicted to drugs in someway? I doubt it. Character witnesses aside, no matter how good you portray Conrad Murray as a Doctor and person prior to his treating and taking on Jackson as his sole patient, it does not excuse him for breaking medical standards, ethics, and more by providing what he did to Jackson, that’s number 1. Number 2, why would any responsible, respectful Doctor take on such a contract, if not just for money?. Time will tell as the Trial rushes to a close with Closing Arguments today. I do know that if Murray gets off free, the Jackson family will sue for wrongful death anyway and he shall never be a Doctor again. What Medical Licensing Board is going to allow this man to practice again, after all this is public and would you let him care for you? So can you tell which way I feel about this one!.
My final thought for the day, November 3rd, 2011. In November of 2008, Americans voted for President Obama to be President. While I agree he was the best choice between himself and Mr. McCain, I don’t think he was the best choice overall. I think the Democrats fell to internal pressures by African Americans and others to choose Obama over Mrs. Clinton. And although that is the way politics is played, I think many now know the truth is, it should have been the other way around. We are all welcome to our opinions and free speech and this is America, I voted Obama only because Mrs. Clinton was not given the nomination. Facts are facts is all I can say. I say this today as we now begin a new Presidential Election cycle to last the next twelve months: Americans before you choose a President by sex, color, race, or anything else, choose one who can lead, one who has ideas to improve the country, the economy and who will always be respected. Don’t let any feelings of prejudice, discrimination or anything else get in your way. Be aware and listen closely to all of them before you choose this time.
