Unlike FIAR, I do not now consider this a lesser of two evils decision. It has become a survival versus dangerous threat to freedom decision. This Obama character is talking about a 'civilian security force' with the same authority and funding as the military. Can you say Hugo Chavez? I am hoping to all sensible and rational observation of things political and spiritual, that this is mere election cycle paranoia.<BR/><BR/><BR/>jumpout - Please jumpout(fm) finish your thoughts and make them public, while we can still enjoy such discourse.Insolubloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02693379911278686634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8779369.post-51621513289223776192008-10-30T17:09:00.000-07:002008-10-30T17:09:00.000-07:00Dude, you are still the most brilliant blogger I r...Dude, you are still the most brilliant blogger I read. <BR/><BR/>I started writing a comment, but it's too long.

The virus that is killing us is not what we are being told but rather what we as a people believe.</I><BR/><BR/>Again, we do not disagree. What shapes those beliefs? Information and analysis of information. The media are a source of poisoned information and the educational systems are the source of poisoned analysis. This results in what you accurately describe as <I>'the sickness in the soul of our citizenry'</I>. The sickness produces the bacteria, like Ayers and Obama, who carry the disease to the general population. Extreme sickness produces Hitler Youth, Kamikazis and Muslim religious bombers.<BR/><BR/>When you have a disease, you still have to treat the symptoms. The media are now snatching the only respirator we have to sustain us, while we try to treat our culture with the antibiotics of conservative and libertarian thought. If the patient dies before you can deliver the medicine, the patient dies, period. We cannot survive without our air or our airwaves.<BR/><BR/><I>There will be no cure until we as the ones addicted admit that we are the cause and then become our own cure.</I><BR/><BR/>It's hard to admit our guilt, late in the game, wallowing in the delirium of untreated issues. We have not suffered the genuine hardships that forge great people for decades. It has made us hedonist, comfortably arrogant, indolent and ignorant. I am not talking about those of us who care, but the increasing numbers of us who don't care. Bloggers, historians, economists and civics fans like us have been talking about this stuff for years; It is in our pages. The more comfortable and successful people become, the more likely the very children of those beneficiaries will tear down that success, to sate their boredom and irrelevance. Look at Ayers; an affluent white punk. Look at many of the Al Qaida generals; rich pampered Saudi brats. Look at the Muslim radicals in London;rich pampered Muslim brats.<BR/><BR/>This behavior is reflected in our own government, where the sociopathic narcissism of a candidate takes priority over morals and ideals. Look at Bill Clinton. Look at Barack Obama. These guys were never real Tribunes of the plebes.<BR/><BR/><I>Tuesday will be very telling. I pray for the the lesser of two bad outcomes.</I><BR/><BR/>Deja Vu.. Is it not?

Not that they lie, cheat, manufacture and distort the truth for their own ends, this is undeniable. <BR/><BR/>I think they are a symptom of the disease and not the disease itself. The virus that is killing us is not what we are being told but rather what we as a people believe.<BR/><BR/>The problem with the country stems back to it's very grass roots. The issue is one of a deep sickness in the soul of America's citizenry. <BR/><BR/>There will be no cure until we as the ones addicted admit that we are the cause and then become our own cure. <BR/><BR/>We as a people, not as a government, have the power to change. The question to me is do we have the will? <BR/><BR/>Tuesday will be very telling. I pray for the the lesser of two bad outcomes.Les Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08717023238572442267noreply@blogger.com
