All the while when growing up as a kid, the police were taught to be my friend, my life preserver in the waters of an Atlantic hurricane……
I was brought up to respect and admire ANYONE in the position of authority. They deserved it
!!!

Although my parents meant well in this teaching, they had no idea of the times I would find myself an adult in. Just tonight on the news is a story on how the local police departments “speeding violations” equal monetary investment in their coffers. In a time of crisis where hard working Americans are struggling to keep a roof over their kids and families head, isn’t it nice to know that the local police department, which is sworn to “serve and protect” are out there nailing us with traffic fines, when drug dealers, rapists, thiefs, and murderers are running about??

Lets face it, those of us who will admit it, (and many more who won’t) have had our fair share of underage drinking, speeding and some of us drug use. If the police agencies of America REALLY want to “serve and protect” then go after the hardened crinimal. The drug PUSHER, not the user, the PERSON who decides to drive when they know they should not, the thief, rapist, murderer!!! Quit picking on the common man who truly would never commit such terrible acts, and get down to PROTECTING AND SERVING THE COMMUNITY—-NOT YOURSELFS!!!!

so– I read on the net today that banks are going to make it harder for the common man/women to score a good credit rating!! We give them are hard earned money and they pay us 1 to 2% interest and when they loan us their “holy grail” they first rake us over the coals making sure our credit rating is good enough to be a “secured” viability and then charge us 20%!!!

The hard earned AMERICAN starts up their business and then either fails or succeeds at the work of their own hands—–but alas, if these “american” (small caps intended) fail at their businesses they give themselves a million plus bonus and ask the government for a handout.

So I just ask this my fellow trenchmen, my beloved apostles of the United States.

HOW MUCH LONGER ARE YOU GOING TO BE ABUSED AND RAPED AND MALTREATED BY THESE WHORES OF THE CORPORATE america???

Goodnight.

As we near to the swearing in of our new President, I ponder at the delirium of the masses throughout the world. Will Obama be the “savior” he has been set up to be? Does he have what it takes to pull the economy out of the pit its found itself in? The next J.F.K. as some would compare his age and campaign too?

                                                              Unlikely.

 I do wish the best and hope that his willing desire and beliefs are strong enough and sustainable to endure President elect Obama through the pressures and stresses about to be thrust upon him. A daunting task indeed to be President at any time in this Great Country of ours!

This new era of American Politics with the first African American at the helm and the immensly huge tasks before him—certainly worth pondering—but the one question that fails to leave me for very long is, how they found ANYONE to campaign for this job let alone actually be willing to take it in the first place!
