People are running around in panic, nothing they are doing is working. How did that happen? Well, it was me and thousands to millions like me, folks that wanted to do their jobs, their lives and get on with getting on... and then the folks that can't moved in to do their best to make everything better, at least for themselves and their buddies and perhaps for the rest of us less fortunate. That is how they sleep at night, knowing they are the good guys.
But they didn't do it well, they got in everyone's way and things kept going wrong. They wanted to be if not a little prince or a god, they wanted to make the rules of gravity, differently. They couldn't, but they do keep trying. Thinking about the Soviet Man, where Communism was going to take us all, how did that become a model for a Free Man? It didn't, but we didn't want to talk about Liberty and Responsibility - that would mean you understood sacrifice. For you must be willing to risk it all to win a victory, but those that seem to be in charge don't understand sacrifice - they have no value in others, a nation, an idea nor a cause. And that is my fault. I am so sorry, I was supposed to be defending a free State and protecting its security. It takes an informed citizen to make a vote count, and I haven't taught anyone enough.
For everyone that worries about a vote for Ron Paul or Johnson, taking votes from Romney or Obama, you really need to find out much more about the Electoral College. Your individual vote counts for local races, but for the President not so much.
Really, a country that has as its citizens, only those that don't understand better than its representatives what would work for paying the bills, for the size and scope of the powers of government -- they do need to become more accepting of their ignorance and place at the bottom of the swamp - evolution says they aren't adapting to stupid behavior well.
I should have told you earlier that it was my fault you don't know, I should have taught History and marksmanship and leadership. There isn't enough of it around for the size of the stupidity and envy and greed.
Earl, but you did, just like I did! By leading by example, and being willing to travel to foreign lands, and do those things necessary to protect OUR way of life! WE are not the ones that corrupted it!
ReplyDeleteThank you for saying so, but remember we may make History, but we don't write it -- and some how, there is the problem. And I am sure we haven't been teaching it to the young.
