Stop the ACLU!
As many of you know by now, I am in the middle of a major move so blogging will be very slow for the next week or so.
But…...I had to take the time to put up an important message. The folks at Stop The ACLU blog need everyone’s help to raise money for an ad in the Washington Times.
Please go to Stop The ACLU for the information......and do what you can to help.
If you care about our American way of life and culture you will dig as deeply as you can in your pockets.Every dollar counts...give as much as you can...please.
This is a very worthwhile cause!

Slow Blogging………………..
Since I am in the process of moving right now I won’t be able to do much blogging for the next week or so. Although, I may surprise you…so check back in every now and then.
Then I will be back with a vengeance…you can count on it!

It's All Our Fault..........Really.
We make our government lie to us. We really do….and I can prove it.
I started thinking about this after watching the TV show "Numbers". The episode was about an outbreak of the 1917 pandemic flu strain….in modern day Los Angeles. I thought ‘can you imagine what would happen if this were a real situation, in real time, and they told us the truth’…..can you imagine?
Can you see the panic, anger and looting?
Especially the looting, because as we have all seen in the recent past nothing, but nothing, soothes a hurt like stealing TV’s.
We act like children and so we continue to force our government to lie to us.
What if we all grew up a little and were able to hear the truth and not act like fools.
What if?
Sometimes things happen that are just not anyone’s fault. Like the flu. What if our government officials could tell us the truth and we would just automatically do exactly what we should do?
Take exactly what was really the best; least selfish and most compassionate actions…do what was best for all of us.
Can you imagine?
Sadly………..I can’t.
And if you can, let me take it to the next level.
What if it were a biological attack…a deliberate attack…..an attack that was really someone’s fault?
Would we be able to not attack each other but instead the people that were really responsible? And could we all stand together? And not out of fear…....but just because it felt, and was, the right thing to do?
Now…can you imagine that?
You are probably thinking “Oh for cripes sake…that was just a TV show”.
And you’re right…it was.
But sometimes the most innocuous things can make us think…really think.
Now, I would love to hear someone, anyone ,tell me that in today’s overly entitled and whiney culture that in a really bad situation people would pull together like they used to.
If you can imagine this…..you have a much better imagination than I do……..
