The best comparison is Bush’s second term (Iraq, Afghanistan, GitMo, gas prices, Democrat deficit spending and fear mongering) with Obama’s first term (Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan, Gitmo, gas prices, Democrat deficit spending and Obamacare).

25% for Bush. 43% for Obama. Eh? The media is worth that much.

Distribution of funds through involuntary exploitation promotes the progressive corruption of individuals and systems. For a large minority of Americans, it is already too late to avoid their fate. The effects of their corruption will be exacerbated through a democratic process which ignores the rule of law (i.e., the Constitution) designed to constrain it.

And people thought the “evil empire” was an extraordinary affront to individuals of dignity. That misconception is born through ignorance, ostensibly for the reason that involuntary exploitation and progressive loss of liberty was committed through overt and explicit acts by Soviet morons.

In America we have progressive corruption (PC). By the time we realized the consequences of denigrating individual dignity and devaluing human life, we have become a nation divided. Still, those who have not completely submitted or been consumed by PC, may yet choose an enlightened order, and reject the progress which has manifested itself as regression.

If Americans still do not know what left-wing ideologies are and are not, then we have already progressed half way to resurrecting the old systems.

If Americans still do not know what distinguishes American conservatism from other conservative ideologies around the world, then there is no hope for individual dignity in America.

If Americans believe that supporters holding promissory notes distributed by individuals with delusions of grandeur will voluntarily reject instant gratification, then they are hopelessly delusional to the true nature of corrupted human beings.

No, the only hope America has to avoid a second correction is through swaying the opinion of “moderates” (i.e., those who follow the prevailing winds).

Let’s hope America’s civil servants and pioneers (i.e., entrepreneurs) decide to stand with America.

I don’t know how to do shorter links. This is how I do my e-mail links.

Promethea, Mount Holyoke College has a page to Learn HTML in 20 Minutes. Go down to Creating Links.

Unfortunately, Neo’s page no longer has the Preview function.

So… the odds are strongly in Obama’s favor.

I fear, tho’ because of Obama attaining the Presidency in 2008, he may have ruined the chances for other black Americans reaching the Presidency — at least in consecutive elections.

I do hope he hangs in there long enough to be recognized for his passion, patriotism, and clear vision not clouded with class warfare and and left-wing ideology that demands economic parity for all. (i.e. raiding the assets of the rich, so those unfortunate souls who prefer instant gratification by having their iPods, latest in computers & huge flat screens, not to mention all those addictive computer games, no savings — now or for their later years, no health insurance — no personal responsibility.

Cain (thus far) has been a candid voice of reason, minus political talking points. That could change, of course, but he is well worth watching.

The biggest thing in the coming campaign is that the GOP not fixate on their single favoite candidate — and lose interest should that person not gain traction. We all have to focus on what needs to be done to set this country back on track, and who can best do that!

None of them can hold a political discussion. I’ve stopped trying to talk about anything except recipes.

BTW, I went to a Tea Party yesterday and heard Herman Cain speak. He was quite good. Let’s hope he runs. I don’t know much about him, but he looks like a manly man, not a pussy cat America hater.

Now, when I bring up Obama’s many failings, those same people say “Jim, I don’t want to talk about politics…” Yup, they’ve become apolitical. What they’re doing is putting their fingers in their ears to keep from hearing ANYTHING negative about the man, and ANYTHING positive about his opponents. Trying to explain that Sarah Palin DOESN’T believe that dinosaurs never existed, DIDN’T ban books in Wasilla and NEVER said she could see Russia from her house is an exercise in futility.

There are few so-called “Independents” (the prized demo, apparently) at my job who say that they’re disappointed in Obama, but then go on to regurgitate the tired talking points about republicans. When Obama starts officially campaigning, they’ll fall back into line.

Now I’m depressed.
