The Future

At some point we do have to place into the hands of those we elect a certain, but limited amount, of trust, I.E. faith, that they will do what is best for our nation.

I know this is risky, but I do believe that there are good people who are trying to make things better but they are swamped by the old school politicians who have forgotten who it is that they really work for; us.

Up until September o8, I honestly thought that I was a real dumb shit because I feared, and had been for a long while, that the ever increasing bubble of higher and higher home values coupled with higher than thou oil prices was going to burst. But it didn't. Then all at once it seemed, that bubble did burst and the very people who I thought were the smart ones, proved that they were dumber than a pumpkin seed. How could these people, these incredibly skilled, well versed, and wealthy people make such a horrific blunder? After September 08, I figured that I am at least as smart as some of them. Then Obama was elected by a landslide by a nation of children who reduced the election down to an American Idol contest. At which point, my hope for a better America, one filled with smarter people than I, was douched, yes douched, and I realized that I was smarter than most of them. And that scared the hell out of me.

Its not Obama's fault, the man is a fucking genius compared to a lot of the people who work in WA DC. He is just that guy, you know the one, that guy Reagan warned us about when he was talking about the soviet union and socialism. If you listen to the Reagan video's you may get the impression that he was not only talking about the soviets of yesteryear, but also the liberals of today. It was as if he was forecasting future events that have seemingly now come to pass.

I don't see a way back to the principles and ideals of Reagan's era. We have crossed that line, the boat has sailed, and our bed is made. Now we must accept what we have, as horrid as it may seem, and try to make the best out of a poor situation. A situation that was created by a genuine lack of control coupled with blind foresight and unbridled stupidity.

A future that those we entrusted to lead us, lead us into.

Unfortunately, the prevailing belief at hand is that it is the light of socialism that we are now being moved toward and not the blissful enlightening kind either, but rather the dark ominous light of oppression and tyranny.

So faith plays an even larger role in our future now. Faith that we can weather this shit storm long enough to elect a new generation of people into office come 2010 and 2012. Faith that we will move away from this storm on hell's horizon that the winds of despair have forced us toward, toward a renewed America and a strong vibrant economy. An economy that isn't controlled by nationalization or socialistic principles, but one that is free, open, and good for all. And if the greedy fuckers who got us into this mess in the first place try to play ball again, we'll toss their asses into a fire filled pit of ever damning hell as a lesson to all future generations that such greed and graft will never again be tolerated.

It is hard to put into words what it is I am trying to say without coming off like a complete tinfoil hat wearing douche bag, red neck, far right wing, liberal hating, crack pot. For that I do apologize. The frustration in our system that I feel is, I believe, shared by many. So now we must put it all on faith that those who have let us down so horrifically can somehow with the help of a new administration, pick up the peaces and move us forward toward the light rather than from it. And that it is we, we the people, who choose what light to strive for.
