Welcome to the ramblings of an inquisitive idiot. A bit about myself. I am disabled but not dead. I love my country, (the USA) but hate the way we are going today. When I joined the army all those many years ago I took an oath to uphold the constitution. Our president took a similar oath and I feel he is not doing what he swore to do. But what else is new with our corrupt government and the police state that is rapidly overtaking us. It is not government for the people and by the people any more it is for the large corporations and who can make a quick buck. I didn’t mean to get off on a tangent but I feel very strongly about personal freedoms and liberty for all. I promise not to limit this blog to politics, but will drift off to helpful posts as well as current news you may not have heard from the big media corporations.
That is all for today. I have threatened to start my own blog for several years now but let procrastination over take me. Hopefully now that I have take the first step I can keep this up and post regularly. The longest journey begins with the first step.
Welcome to blogging! Being able to express yourself through the First Amendment of free speech is a right we each have. It is unfortunate to watch our dear America going down the tubes. With President Bush signing a law prohibiting from protesting against the war, when people have the right to assemble peacefully. Our economy is bad shape too. This war is costing us over $472 Billion at the moment. http://www.nationalpriorities.org/Cost-of-War/Cost-of-War-3.html Most American families are having to work two jobs each just to make their bills. The housing market is falling rapidly and deceasing the value of their homes. Many do not have health care due to employers only hiring part time workers, so they have no benefits. When more families are having to go on government assistance for food stamps, health care and other assistance programs to pay their electricity, heat and medication, this is so sad that our government and President will not open their eyes to the truth. The truth being they only think of themselves and padding their own pockets. What is it going to take for them to wake up?
Welcome to blogging my Buddy! I look forward to reading your informative posts.
