Today the jury continues it’s deliberations in the Conrad Murray Trial. Will they find Murray guilty or innocent and if they do find him innocent, doesn’t that say Michael Jackson Killed himself, by self ingesting or injecting? I hope the jury stops and thinks about that before they say Murray is innocent. Or thinks about the fact Michael Jackson paid this so called Doctor with a contract of $150,000.oo dollars a month to care for him and keep him healthy and less then 90 days later he was dead.
Next subject, it is now one year from the next Presidential Election. I see numerous Republicans running around speaking from the poduims, but not one telling the truth. Nor do I see one of them calling for Congress to act now to help the American people. They are doing nothing except extending Unemployment Benefits and skating by and the American public is letting them, why? The economy is tanked out, jobs don’t exist, companies are going over seas, no manufacturing exists here anymore, look at what you buy folks, it’s all made in China, Japan and Korea or some other country. What happen to Buy American, Be American!.
Can we as a country truely elect a Hermain Cain, or a Mitt Romeny, or any of these Replublicans, if they can’t get congress to move or act not? How can you vote for a party or canidate who can’t get their own in Congress to help the American People before they are elected never mind after. Now is when help is needed not a year or two in the future, this is not a movies America it is reality and we are going down the tubes here. Wake up please!!!. Yes I know saying the Republicans are not the answer sounds foolish or sounds silly with the alternative being keeping OBama. Obama at least is doing some things right now, pulling us out of Afgainistan, Iraq and Iran and bringing the troops home for one. Second that will free funding to help the homeless, jobless and hungry here if the money is reapplied in the right places. We do need to stop helping others, when we can’t help ourselves.
That said, what can be done to help America turn itself around? 1) Change the trade agreements and laws-charge more for imports less for exports, lower the tariffs for american goods going out and charge more for those coming in. 2) Change the tax laws on American companies, give them more tax breaks to stay here. 3) Unions need to stop overly attacking these same companies and back off, Americans got way too greedy asking too much in benefits and pay. 4) Pay for innovations and inventions more, and encourage companies to form by incentives, and financial help. 5) Retrain blue collar workers currently unemployed for white collar jobs, and give extended education opportunities to them. 6) Keep our American children in schools and working towards degrees in fields of endeavers that encourage building of manufacturing busnesses and technical fields. All of these can be accomplished through cooperation between the political parties and plain and simple bi-partisianship.
I like millions of American’s watch CNN daily for news on the markets, the world and here in America. I hear their reports of economic failures, disasters around the world and then I see reports of companies American created moving from one country like China to Japan. Why? Why can’t HP bring the plants and company here to America where they started and make them all here? Because no one is giving them the incentive or motivation to do so, by lowering their taxes and giving them any breaks. So again Americans doing get the jobs.
Last and not leastly today, I want to address a common item that I have noticed in CNN’s newscasts,in Fox Newscasts and in general on television period. Now I am not prejudice, nor do I discriminate in anyway and i grew up in a mixed neighborhood as a child and live in a mixed area as an adult. Race, color, naturality, means nothing to me and I believe in treating all equal. Yet I am seeing a constant bias and even to some extent a bit of favoritism toward African Americans in the way news is reported and who reports it. I tire of Roland Martrin for CNN, speaking all the time on how blacks or African Americans are not treated fairly in one case or another. By doing this I wonder if Roland Martin realizes that he is drawing attention, bad attention to his own race, culture and people. You don’t need to overemphisize African Americans, I understand the need for fairness and equality in all aspects and respect that and so do most americans. And one more thing that bothers me a bit, Afican Americans demand we call them African Americans, or blacks, yet they can run around calling the caucasion race white or honkys. Why is that? If you are gonna talk races ot colors, please refer to us caucasions as caucasions not whites ot honkys, please!.
Final item for today, as America goes forward we must at last realize we can not continue to babysit the world, these countries we help are not helping us in return and we waste valuable time, effort and resources on rebuilding, policing and fighting their wars for them. It’s time America brings home it’s resources, people and equipment, and uses it at home to help our own people not some people who would like to see us wiped off the face of the planet.
