    President Obama Mortgaging The Future.
Mortgaging His Future

There is no demand for truth, ethics, and morality anymore, as being politically correct rules the day. The people of America want a new set of definitions, to push the enveloped further and further. Parents can be taken to court for spanking and disciplining their kids, by their kids. Few people stand up and say what they think, sitting on their hands, with zipped lips, fearing what may be said and what people may think. The people of America should be embarrassed to take a "bail out," as they have failed in their business mission, to make money. However, there is no shame in business, as government money, in the form of welfare, corporate bail outs, and out sourcing American jobs are completely acceptable, in the form of billions of dollars. Actually, mortgaging the future of the next two to three generations. Right now, President Obama has spent (in just four months, in office) enough money, in bail outs and "stimulus," to put a $546,000 barnacle around each Americans neck.

The constant beating of the political correct drum, is running our country into the ground. There is very little press reporting actual stories, except the "rosy pictured ones", and most Americans are to self absorbed to actually take some time to do research, on the state of the union. Our President says, "he does not want to run banks, car companies, or side with the unions", but all of these things have come to pass, as President Obama is now running GM, banks, and gave in to all of the unions demands (in the GM deal). The United States is becoming a caricature of what it once was, and most people do not have a clue how the world views America and the rotting from the inside out of America. Tim Geithner spoke in China (to some students and government representatives, about America being good on its word and monetary bonds), he was actually laughed at, by the crowd.

The rule of law, truth, morality and justice once reigned over America's people, but these ideas have been replaced by the selfish, ignorant, short sighted, and/or those wanting a hand out. Over 50% of the black population is illiterate, dropping out of high school, and occupies more space than any other ethnic group in America. The heterosexual divorce rate is close to 60%, as there is no real stock in nuptials/commitment left. While, people in the homosexual community demand votes in states, for marriage rights, and when the state votes down the actual amendment, a boisterous outcry for activist judges to overturn the will of the people occurs. Illegal aliens are pouring across our border, while the politicians worry about voting blocks and re-election. The easiest thing in the world is to count pieces of paper, but in Minnesota they have only one senator, still. These are just some problems in our country, not being addressed, by the actual people of the country.

Gone are the days of "the greatest generation" and replaced with a whiny, self-serving population, who will step on anyone to get ahead. Gone are the days of John Wayne and "Stand By Your Man," ushering in "wardrobe malfunctions," steroids in sports, and people worshiping the "OctoMom." It is up to each individual, each American, to make choices and demand more from themselves, for our country to come back from the brink of annihilation. If this does not happen soon, there will be a free fall of the economy, a general apathy, and , America may never recover. Copyright. "The Thought Spigot" http://TheThoughtSpigot.Com
