Welcome Visitors From MyBarackObama,Com

Hello Everyone,
All the faithful that come daily to see how I think; what gems have bubbled up overnight; what words of wisdom I have to offer ~ to those who could change the tone of the election or bring about world peace ~ if they wanted to ~ so I guess they don't.

Today, I started to blog on Barack's website. It is "MY Barack Obama . com" after all. But for some reason ~ until today~ I hadn't wanted to be a member. I don't really like joining. Then again, you can only go so long ~ talking to yourself ~ and I got this notion that maybe, just maybe... ~ Maybe if I'm provocative enough!!! Someone will listen to what I have to say. Maybe I'll have to say something objectionable ~ at least someone would have to read it ~ and my deeply insiteful ideas would be heard. I'll give it a try.

Vist my blog on Barack Obama's website ~ now.

Maybe I should offer a reward -- The first person to comment on my blog (anyone of them) I will send you a prize. Send me your ideas ~ how to get read. Please ~ I beg you. You can come visit me in paradise. Thanks in advance. E

Oh, here I go again ~ Lookin' backwards...

Alas, to the meaning of the song...

Well let's think for a moment, "When was this recorded?" That's a clue. And next, "What is the song about?" Hmmnnn?

Now, I'm going to ask you to connect the dots again ~ because this is not a subject we can talk about these days. Not since Dan Rather was banished to the banks of outer Siberia, during the first Gulf War ~ during that media black out. Some of us older folk might remember:

"We're not going to have another fv(king V!37 N@m, for God's sake! With the leftist liberal media going in there, snapping pictures to grace the cover of Life magazine, of naked children and burning flesh ~ running through the streets with a napalm cloud hoverin' above them. And showin' body bags being carried off the planes, Every G0& D@%3d night just at supper time!!! No sir re Bob, we're not."

I bet you're thinking, "Where is she going with all this?" I like to imagine someone reading this blog. Forgive my delusions of grandeur.

So, I'm sitting here one night ~ fast forward to 2008 ~ watching the debate ;-) and Sweet Stuff says, Well Joe your proposal would be like "the White Flag of Surrender."

Bingo!! That's when I sat up a little straighter on the couch, you betcha. Heck, we all know we don't want another V!37 N@m, there in Iraq ~ or anywhere ever again, right?

We all know that we need only invoke the memory of:
  • ~ how we turned against our troops
  • ~ our young boys, who in those days were (well most were) drafted
  • ~ our boys who had no say whether they wanted to go or not
  • ~ how we booed them when they returned, we hissed at these poor victims of Johnson's war, then Nixon's war...
  • ~ the reason we LOST the war, in that God-forsaken place
  • ~ the liberal media; how they were the ones that showed us what was going on; if it weren't for them Mi Lia would have never been known. Well maybe it would, but still...
We need only invoke these memories to trigger a ferocious cry of Never Again! Never again will America say surrender, forsake our troops, accept defeat, admit we were wrong!!! Never. At least hardly ever, unless we can make it look like something else.

Look people ~ (as John McCain loves to say) we have loved John McCain. He did mighty things and seemed for years to be candid and man of conscience. He exemplified courage, when he said that about extremists on either side. He seemed self deprecating and the first to admit.... what?

(If you were a young man or woman, just figuring out how important this election is, would you even have a glimmer that the last statement was true? I guess not if your awakening occurred anytime in the last 22 months.)

But suddenly, and here's my point, John McCain says things like, "I have NEVER told a lie. I have ALWAYS put country first." and so on. But John ~ can you hear me? Something has you stoked. You're telling lie after lie ~ you once were able to admit it, but now? I think William Ayres and abandonning Iraq and this being his last shot at getting elected and he's loosing to a Black man. Maybe Vietnam is surfacing. I've know 4 sole survivors of the camps in Poland ~ all lived seemingly ok lives (on the outside) until they were nearing retirement, nearing the end of their active public lives. And then, Boom!!@#$%#$@! They lost it. They went back 50 years and were in Auschwitz-Birkenau again.

Someone needs to say, "John, This is not about Vietnam."

6 years ago, I wanted to tell Bust Jr - "George, you can't fix what your dad did wrong."

I am getting lost here. And that's because I'm writing all over the place these day... It has something to do with McCain is to Iraq, because of Vietnam ~ as Bush Jr was to Iraq because of Bush Senior. I think.

Is this why he is hammering away at William Ayres? Look a few years ago, most Americans would say that Ayres may have had a legitimate grievance ~ and tried the only way he thought he knew how ~ to get the attention for his cause. The Vietnam War was a disgrace. And very few can actually be proud to have had anything to do with it ~ Bush? Cheney? Clinton?

Even McCain has whole groups of Verterans who are mad at him because of it. Kerry, maybe he was a hero. I certainly respect what McCain endured. His roomate tells a compelling account of survival together. But I also have to listen to the guy from a room across the hall ~ who says that McCain (because of Vietnam) might not be a good person to have in the white house.

And lastly, and then I'll sleep this one off - when I read: McCain: racist, bigot & homophobe | Capitol Hill Blue and this was before the worst of the racially charged ads aired ~ I was horrified by 3 things:
  1. What McCain called Cindy after a hard day (c%#t) in public.
  2. What he said he would be willing to do, in order to get elected.... and
  3. That he refers to Vietnamese as Gooks and said he would ALWAYS hate them.
Now, it's not so much that a guy from his generation might not have learned how to speak in public. But the person who becomes the next president of the United States will be dealing with the Super Power that is China. China will own the better part of our national debt. And North Korea has nuclear weapons. Our president better be some cool cucumber, who doesn't enter into any situation hating anyone. That's all I have to say! for tonight :(

~Welcome my Friends & even better my Enemies~


As for this picture, hmn? Well it's art. And I was laid up with flu... and one day I just thought I can't really explain what I'm a thinkin' ~ but I can photoshop it!!! So I did. (3 times). More and hopefully better to come in days...

Meanwhile ~ these are serious times and I want to say something serious. In fact I have several serious things to say. To begin with:

I offer to direct your attention to 2 "must read" articles, for anyone interested in the current climate of hate and desperation ~ for me they explain a lot ~ if not almost all. But then you do have to use your imagination and draw a line to connect the dots.

And please, if you see where I'm going with this and you can add to our appreciation, leave comments - tell us (me) where else to go, what else to read, who else has an insight.

And I pray to God ~ and I think there's only one ~ I'm getting down on my knees, sitting like a Yogi, or standing upright ~ that the end of days will be a ways off...

Wonder who would take the time to look let alone report this blog. I must have already - in my very first hour - offended someone. Sarah?

Sarah n her boys!


Some ask: "Why her? What is up with this? Is this a reflection of "COUNTRY FIRST" or am I missing the point?" But just think about it...

You're this 70 somethin' year old guy ~ maybe losing in the poles and a few other things as well ~ and one morning you wake up... and Boom!!~!! You feel something you haven't felt in a long time!

And mind you this may be after years of feeling kinda dead, debating whether the little blue pill is right for you...

and it's so sudden and frankly, unexpected! And you say to yourself ~ "if she can do this for me? imagine what she could do for our country!!!"

Well wouldn't you... or rather can't we forgive them, for they (truly) know not what they do?

yea~owwww
