Editor, Times-Union: “We” were under attack. “We” are going under. Who are we? Americans. Agree or disagree, red, white, black or blue we are Americans first. “We” need to remember that. No matter how misguided some may be, I’m worried for all Americans.
After all, so many started out with good intentions. Unions started out to protect workers and ensure good pay. They pay dues to work, and are now being played so the feigned love and support of the president will keep their votes in 2012. Guess who’s going to be thrown under the bus after the election? After all union workers will be the new rich with more money and better benefits. Beware the thug train the union leaders and president want you on! Socialists and communists pretend to have compassion on the poor. History shows they promise elites will be destroyed to redistribute their wealth to the poor. Does history show the poor are then better off? Nope.
Governments do what they do best, absorb and spend the people’s money. They aren’t picky, they take from the rich and poor alike. They are the ones in office saying hate the rich while living in luxury off the backs of the people. Barry and Michelle are living quite the opulent lifestyle, with lavish vacations while telling us to hate the rich and we need shared sacrifice. I’m tired of going backwards.
Those who suggest that socialism is the way to go, and that capitalism is dead, go live in a socialist country for a year. Socialism doesn’t work, so bury the idea. Can we also bury another moronic idea? “The world hates us for having slaves.” The world hates us because we are free, capitalism has made us prosperous in comparison to them, and we cling to our God.
Can you imagine God or the Bible being politically correct? No, and I don’t plan on it either. The “politically incorrect” can now be reported for talking bad about the president. Are you kidding me!? Everything he does, every appointment he makes is disastrous to our country. He demands “PASS THE BILL” and “let your voices be heard.” If the stimulus worked, they wouldn’t need another. I say impeach him before he completely destroys or “fundamentally changes” us. Turn that in!
As American’s our freedom of speech overrides political correctness. So if I write a letter to the editor, and sign my name assuming the risk for my opinions and words, should I be censored? I didn’t think so.
