Some lessons I learned in life come to mind this morning and maybe should be in others minds too, so I offer some from me to you!

1) Don’t ever be too overly trusting, for if you are people will rob you blind in anyway they can.

2) Don’t fight idiots or fools who want to get physical with you, walk away.

3) Persistence does pay off in the end.

4) Before you jump into any situation, or relationship check the person out fully, you may be wanting to date a                    crazy person.

5) Everyone has dark secrets in their life somewhere, look for them, before they look for you!

6) Survivalist come in many forms, not just the physical ones, but the mental ones too could get you.

7) You can indeed do whatever you want to do and be who you want to be, as long as you use your mind to do it                  and stick to it!

8) if you let foolish pride get in your way, you will never overcome or learn how to get by.

9) Doesn’t matter what you want or need, you can get it if you work to achieve.

10) Remember , you are responsible to make yourself the best person you can be no one else!

11) We didn’t choose our parents, but they choose to make us, we can’t blame them for what we become, we make             our own choices.

12) Finally, but not least, honor, trust, and respect given to others will come back to you, you can’t hurt another and            not expect to be hurt in return, it doesn’t work that way,.

      The USA, yes that us, The American People right, than why on Election Day 2014 did we act like a backwards country and put the White House and Congress at opposing polar points of view to duke it out for two more years? Simple some will say it’s a check and balance system put in place by our founding fathers, to make sure our GOvernment is by the people, and for the people.  What the founding fathers did not count on when they created this Republic and made it a democratic one is, the people becoming so uneducated and lazy, that they don’t even understand what they are doing  to themselves. The American People kill themselves when they give The Senate and House to one party and the White House to another, it becomes stalemate and bogs down any progress, you all will see in the next two years, exactly what I mean. The President will put Bills forward, Congress will block everything he puts out, Congress will put bills forward and The President will Veto anything coming at him. In the end, we will effectively be in the same place from November 5 th, to November 2016 and into 2017 when the next President is in office. We the People did this, and it was a dumb move if you ask me, we can’t move America Forward by electing opposites in the key places. Sadly, american’s who are homeless, hungry, out of work and walking the streets and packing the unemployment rolls and more, will  become greater in numbers, and our economy will bog down more.

The Economy of the United States was built on manufacturing period, we were always so rich and powerful, we could get anything we wanted if we worked for it. Well, today you can’t even work for it, you work to survive is all, to pay your mortgage, your rent, electric and phone and heat and eat period. Gas is only a luxury actually for your car if you need it to go somewhere like doctors or lawyers or family matters. The stores are empty and more malls get built why? I shall never understand the foolishness of the America I love. I can say these things because i have seen the following things happen in my lifetime: House Prices go up and then crash down, stocks and bonds doing the same, Factories open and closing left and right and so much more plus I served my country for 16 years and became disabled as a Veteran. Sadly I can’t improve my health, but I can speak my mind damn it.

I was born in 1956 under Eisenhower and Nixon, lived through Camelot with the Kennedys, and watched him die, his brother die and Martin Luther King Jr too, All for for equality and the betterment of the American people on a whole. Lyndon Johnson while trying to carry on the progress of his predecessor, bogged us down in Vietnam and tried to change things but was unable to. I have seen every President and party in the White House they will ever be in my lifetime and yet not a one of them understands that you need to rebuild the economy at home, before you can police and rebuild other countries period. I watched factories go down the tubes one by one because they were over taxed over charged and moved overseas to keep in business, sad isn’t it. Companies that were mainstays of America’s economy, closed their door in the 1970s and 1980s and never returned, UniRoyal Rubber and Sneakers, Chase Brass and Cooper, Anaconda, Timex and so many more. Now it is the 2014 and the brick and mortar stores are dying out Sears, K-mart, and more, yet Malls are still being built and never filled, sad isn’t it. americans don’t have jobs, or savings or a way to make money these days, so they live pay check to pay check. I watched a loaf of bread go from a quarter to over three dollars a loaf. Milk triple in price, meat prices soar, gas prices soar and so much more, why? When will the Congress, both sides and the President realize what is happening to Americans?

I went to a mall the other day with a friend, no I didn’t spend money I didn’t have we went to use it for walking and getting some exercise is all. As we drove down the road I saw boarded up stores and buildings where big store chains were before. I saw people in dirty clothes and hungry holding up signs feed me, will work for food, need a home, and even some sleeping in cardboard boxes, why? This is America, but the House, The Senate as a Unit does nothing to change it and nether can the President without support. Do something Americans, do it now or pay further prices!

November 5th, has arrived in 2014, and the election results are in, the Republicans did win the Majority in the Senate and they already had control of the House. So guess what folks, the President is now sitting on the hot seat of the world’s most powerful office, with no support at all. Sad really if you ask me that the american people choose to go this way, but it is done and now the people will get either their glory or destruction next. The sad thing about this is no Americans seem to understand their own political system that well in my opinion, you all just handed the Republicans the power to not only block and stop every thing the President wants to do, but you have also given the first 4 years of the next President one hell of a problem to deal with too. Sad America very sad in my opinion! 

America will see now, how the Republicans will attack Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and any other program that helps people, including ObamaCare. Sadly, you will see how they cut unemployment benefits for all, limiting them to either 13 or 26 weeks, and how the republicans who have more money then anyone else can and will hurt Americans left and right. How they are indeed war hawks, and why they support the military machine that makes weapons and The NRA. I just hope they can understand the following fact, MIddle America is quickly and quietly dying out, people who are in the middle class have no place to go to get to the upper class, so in the end they fall into the abysis of the lower class. No Jobs, kills the economy, no trade kills the economy, no manufacturing kills the economy, higher taxes will murder America’s Economy and we will never come back from it all. MOre people will find themselves walking the streets of America looking for dumpsters and boxes to sleep in and begging for food. The choices made on November 4th, 2014, by the American People in this election can and will probally hurt more people than ever before. Watch it all happen America, because it will, Republicans are all of what I said above and greedy as hell, so screw the people, they will get their own these Republicans and forget you!

      Election 2014 is Tuesday folks and I want to say something regarding it. Whether you believe President Obama is a decent President or not, Tuesday’s election is vital to the nation. If you vote against the democrats and give control of the Senate and House to the Republicans, they will attack, social security, they will attack Medicare and Medicaid, they will make changes no one wants and never touch Obama Care anyway. They will attack schools and children and so much more and raise taxes everywhere they can, be carefull with it all please.

The Republicans at this stage are the worst party to run the country, they stalemate a President and the country and now you want to give them control of both the House and Senate! It will be a sad day in hell before I would vote that way, the worst Democrat out there makes more sense than any republican today so wake up folks.

You want to make Sense folks, Vote out McConnel and The House Speaker!They have led the most do nothing Congress and Senate in the History of our Country, doing nothing for anyone but themselves and their Republican Party, so they can hurt everyone but their own. Wake Up!

 If The Republicans win, they will put boots on the ground in Iraq and Afghanistan again. They will fight every war they can so they can make money off the arms industry. Pay attention folks, it’s true, The Gun Laws will go back to the gun makers favor and so much more. We have nuts killing cops left and right and murdering women and children in our own country and we fail to stop it here, how the hell can we police another country or state like they want us to, we can’t. Wake Up!

I tire of hearing people say well they started it, so I will vote them back in to finish it, thats how we got stuck for four more years with George Bush folks, and how the oil industry advanced so much. Wake Up. This may be the most important Election so far in the 2000’s, do we let the Republicans bog down Congress more, when we all know right now the frontrunner for the Presidency will be Hillary Clinton when she declares, do you really see a Republican who can match her in experience, knowledge, dedication and determination?  do you really see a Republican or Tea Party Candidate who can really win and make a difference, I don’t think so. Who rand Paul/ Ted Cruz, or whoelese. no one they have makes sense, listen to me.

The only way America moves forward from 2014 to 2016 and beyond is the Democrats not the Republicans, listen up and lets make progress and not stalemate ourselves, the country and weaken how other see us as a nation. Vote democratic on Tuesday and in 2016!

 Happy Halloween 2014  All!      Please Check anything your children get Trick or Treating carefully and keep them safe. Go with them and only to the people you know or trust, do not take them to strangers. Lets make this halloween a safe one parents ok, for our children are are hearts and souls. Don’t let them eat candy without checking it and making them eat real food ok! 

 That said welcome to October 31st already, yes I know today is Friday and Tuesday is November 4th, 2014 folks. Election Day is here for the mid-terms and if we all have a brain in our heads we will do something about the damn jam up in Washington now before it gets worse. Be smart Americans and remember you tried your experiment last time around and split the House and Senate between two parties making progress impossible for anyone. lets change it America, on Tuesday we must think ahead, do we want jobs, unemployment benefits, Medicare and Medicaid and help for seniors and more? Do we want logic or bullshit in office?  Are you tired of filibusters, and stagnation in government?  Are we going to let the Tea Party and the Republicans stop all action in Washington and forever? Wake up Please and realize, what is wrong now while you can and make it better. 2016 will be next and we will be electing a new President and when we do, do we want to stalemate them before they get in office or do we want to be prepared to improve America? The Choice is yours, yes you the American People decide your own future, Vote Tuesday and Help the country go forward, or shut up and don’t complain when nothing changes! Got it folks, I hope ya do now! 

Final for Today folks, in my lifetime I have experience many things, a rough birth at 10 pounds and nine ounces that almost killed my mom, a battered and bruised childhood, rejection by my own family and kids my age and overcame it all, even my bout of Attention Deficit and Hyper-Activity. I overcame them all and survived, I survived 199 seizures in my first 9 months of life folks, can you say the same. I grew up defending my family, my friends and family. I went on to defend my country for 16 years, becoming a Disabled Veteran onboard a ship in the Navy. So yes I have seen many things folks,so when I tell you the following you should listen carefully. America your children can be anything they want in the world, a doctor, a lawyer, a chemist, or a mother, a sports hero, a soilder, sailor or marine anything, and all they need to know is one thing, if you put you mind to it and stick to it and work it, you will reach it! Never forget That!
