What is coming?

‎"Most of you have no idea what to do, or whats coming. Some of you do. This isn’t a fight about land, about this town. This is a fight for our very existence."- Johnston Green (Jericho, Coalition of the Willing)

“Are things in our country so bad that it might actually be time for revolution?” Dylan Radigan asked on his MSNBC show. His answer: “The answer is obviously ‘yes.’ The only question is, ‘how to do it?’” He goes on to say “To clear our dire problems may require even more drastic solutions,” he said. While introducing his cartoonist guest, Ratigan says those solutions might include “violence or at least the threat thereof” Now many on the left claimed it was Glenn Beck calling for a violent revolution, even though he said the exact opposite. Now a progressive, after conservatives win the house says, we need to have a revolution with "violence or at least the threat thereof." Where is the public outcry? Why are people not pointing out the hypocrisy? I am at the point where I believe a civil war is going to come. It will be American vs. American. Will it happen within a couple years? I have no idea. But looking at the political ads the left and right are becoming more polarized. The attacks are getting dirtier, and people are becoming more divided. And, if you believe that 2012 will be nicer, you have another thing coming. It will be nastier, and even more dividing. Friendships could become strained. If the left and the right both believe in some sort of revolution it will happen. How it happens depends on you.

Faith

I have been without work now for over 3 months. It is easy for me to know how long, because I have been without work since my son was born. You wont see me cry about it though, because I believe that God has a plan for me. I won't sit around and do nothing, I don't expect a handout. I like to earn what I get. I may not be employed, but my faith in God keeps me strong. I know I need to spread the Gospel of Christ. One way of doing that is through travel. My wife and I do craft fairs quite often, and one way we share our faith is how we are with other people. We currently sell Jewelry and Baby stuff such as Pacifier clips, burp rags, and nursing covers, but that only reaches to a certain demographic. That is one reason why I decided to get into the action by making and selling Dog treats. My goal is to not only make good treat for dogs, but to Spread the Gospel on how we conduct ourselves on a weekly basis. I don't see this period of unemployment as an awful time, but to find out new ways to share my faith. If that means selling dog treats across the midwest, then so be it. I just pray that God uses me where he needs me.

Are tea Party politicians really tea party people?

The Elections have come and gone for many states, which is welcome by both the left and the right. This years attacks were some of the worse I have seen. It looks as if the victors were the Republicans and the Tea Party. However, that got me to thinking. Are the Tea Party politicians really a part of the Tea Party? Every Tea Party politician is a Republican, and many of them had republican affiliation before the Tea Party existed. However the make-up of the Tea Party is mixed between all parties, who are fed up with the current climate in Washington. The most famous Tea Party politician is Sarah Palin, and she has endorsed many of the Tea Party candidates during the election period. Now I bring this up because I had a conversation with a friend of mine. Something does not seem right. Over the past year I have seen what seems to be a take over of the Tea Party by the Republican Party. Many people say it is the reverse, but I disagree. If you look many of those who ran were already republican politicians, but they added the Tea Party symbol to that. I want to stress that all people who consider themselves part of the Tea Party to look closely at the candidates who won. Keep their feet to the fire, and make sure they are not hijacking your movement. Yes the Republicans ideology may line up better, and they may have accepted the Tea Party as legitimate, but that does not mean they can take over. So again look closely at the candidates who won. Do they really match up with the Tea Party ideology, or are they just Hijacking a very popular movement?

Tired

I learned something today. So, on facebook in your political views they have some you can choose from 2 of those you need to avoid. Very Liberal and Very Conservative. You cannot talk to them and have an open dialogue. A very liberal person will hate conservatives and a very Conservative will hate liberals. There really is no discussing things. I personally am a conservative (if you have paid any attention to my blog you would already know that). However I am willing to have a discussion with those that disagree, however through some of my friends I have found that is not the case. They are blinded. For example, they will post a link saying some media personality is inciting violence, however, that link has no evidence what so ever, however, if you look at the comments in the article are saying said media personality should die, and he needs to burn. It is a hypocritical situation. I will be thankful when November 2 is over. I am going to take a LONG break from politics. This blog will have a different focus, at least on the short term.

Obama- The most divisive President

I really wanted to go until the Election without a post. I did not want to post anything, but this caught my eye. President Obama was talking to the Latin community, and this is what he said, "But they are going to be paying attention to this election and if Latinos sit out the election instead of saying we're going to punish our enemies and we're going to reward our friends who stand with us on issues that are important to us, if they don't see that kind of upsurge in voting in this election, then I think it's going to be harder and that's I didn't think it's so important that people focus on voting on November 2nd." Did you catch that? Punish our enemies. Now, you never heard Bush call democrats and liberals enemies. You never heard Clinton call Conservatives and Republicans enemies either. But this is what this country has come to. You have a president calling half of the country enemies. Now I may disagree with liberals out there. I have some friends that if all we talked about were our political views we might not be friends, but thankfully that is not all this world is about. Yes, at this time politics is critical, but you know what? If politics is going to end up being a blood bath in the end, I don't want a part if it. Obama said he was listening to those who did not earn his vote. Yet, he looks at us, Some of us are trying to help this country get on track. We lend out our hand in support, and he spits in our face. I have become and enemy in his eyes. I have become a target. To those of my friends who I don't see eye to eye with politically, you will never hear me call you an enemy. When the time comes, and I get the chance to run for political office You will never hear me call my opponent an enemy. You will never see me attack someone. My hope would be that my opponent want to help America as much as I do. I know they believe in a different path. I get that, but we are only as strong as our leaders, and right now, it appears we are not that strong at all.

It's Almost Here

For those who can, now is the time to get ready. November 2 is almost here. You get to decide who is in and who is out. Remember it doesn't matter whether they are Republican or Democrat. What matters is, can you trust them? I have been thinking about this for a while now. There is a chance that Republicans will win majority in the House, and maybe the Senate. What will happen if they do? Will they keep their promises, or will they continue to work the way Washington has in the past? Is it all for show? If they do take both, and they don't change what is going on, what happens in 2012? Many Americans already believe it is a good idea to vote in an independent. Will that finally happen? Could we see an independent candidate become President. The 2010 elections could give us more questions than answers.

Obama: Voters 'Scared,' Not Thinking Clearly About Election

"People out there are still hurting very badly, and they are still scared. And so part of the reason that our politics seems so tough right now, and facts and science and argument does not seem to be winning the day all the time, is because we're hard-wired not to always think clearly when we're scared," Obama said at a Democratic fundraiser Saturday in Boston. "And the country is scared, and they have good reason to be."

Sorry Obama, but the country is not scared. The country just realizes we cannot sustain on the path that we are on. We cannot continue to have 1.3 trillion dollar deficits. A majority of Americans said they did not agree with the healthcare bill, yet it was forced upon us. You have a majority, yet you cant get bills passed, then blame Republicans because you cant get enough Democrats to pass your agenda. It may be October, and Halloween may be around the corner, but America is not scared. They are just preparing for election day.
