If my little cubicle here at my current place of
employment can be considered as being a little slice of the country at large,
well then my friends, I fear that the end of this once great nation may be much
closer than any of us would like to think.
Because it would seem that a good many of those that I find myself
surrounded with on a daily basis were, to put it mildly, quite pleased with
they heard uttered by ‘their’ president on Tuesday night. I say ‘their’ president because I refuse to
recognize this anti-American douche bag as my president. And while I generally keep my thoughts to
myself, out of fear of being accused of creating a hostile work environment, I
found it quite alarming at just how many of my coworkers appear to be not much
smarter than your very average light bulb.
While I have long known that the majority of those
with whom I work are, politically speaking, more than just a little to the
left, I guess I really had no idea just how far out there many of them really
are. And these are people with kids to
whom it seems to matter very little the extent of the damage that Barry has
done, and continues to do, to this country.
I find that anyone, right, left or in the center, who can be so naïve
regarding what’s taking place right under their nose, to be more than a little
frightening. I let it slip the other day
when talking to one of them how it was that I wished I could ‘live’ where they
do because not knowing, or caring, about how our country is being destroyed must
be much easier on one than actually knowing and caring about what’s taking
place.
And while I wish I could be more optimistic about
what the future may hold, I simply cannot ignore that sense of impending doom I
have that seems, from time to time, to be somewhat overwhelming. And I fear that if we are truly foolish
enough to nominate either Romney or Bush as our 2016 candidate, we should not then
be all that surprised when the result turns out to be the same as it did in 1996,
2008 and again in 2012. Because if we
end up with a president Hitlery Clinton, or worse, who will take the baton from
Barry “Almighty”, we will then have no one to blame but ourselves. Romney and Bush support such things as
‘climate change’, Common Core and amnesty, all of which makes them essentially
the same as their Democrat rivals and, as such, underserving of becoming our
next president.
These are very perilous times, my friends, and we seem
to have a great many in this country who fail, either by choice or through a
dangerous level of ignorance, to recognize the perilousness of our present
situation. The truth is, if we wish to
survive then we must do all that is necessary in our effort to maintain some
level of control over our destiny. We
can ill afford to nominate someone who, as Ted Cruz so eloquently put it, is
from the “mushy middle.” Romney has made
two attempts and I simply do not view him as being someone worthy of a
third. He has said, “I want to be
president,” but running for president should be about far more than just
wanting the job. And Bush has made
comments that should be causing us all to call into question his supposed
conservative credentials.
In the coming months leading up the next election,
which, trust me will be here sooner than most of us would probably like, there
will likely be a lot said about how Republican candidate A causes more
uneasiness among Democrats than Republican candidate B, or that Republican candidate
C is the only true conservative in the race.
We must be wary of what we hear from the numerous talking heads and
focus on forming our own opinions when it comes to who it is that we think
would be the best candidate to vote for.
We must always question the motives of those who appear desperate in
their efforts to steer us toward one candidate over another. We must pay attention, stay informed and then
vote accordingly.
