For The Times They Are A-Changin’


Come Senators, Congressmen, Please heed the call. Don’t stand in the doorway, Don’t block up the hall. For he that gets hurt, Will be he who has stalled. There’s a battle outside, And it is ragin’. It‘ll soon shake your windows, And rattle your walls – For the times, they are a-changin’.
Karl Rove better heed the lyrics of Bob Dylan’s song. So should any of his old school ‘professional’ politicians. Change is in the wind. That wind is coming from the Tea Party Movement. To make any negative statement about the winner of Delaware’s Republican Primary, Christine O'Donnell, was just, well, for lack of a better term, stupid. The Tea Party is a movement – a movement that is growing steam – and the one thing that the Tea Party Movement will do best is get out the vote. Karl Rove and the rest of the old school Republican establishment can either change with the times, or be left behind. Sure, Delaware is a traditionally blue state. But that’s no reason to throw in the towel during Ms. O’Donnell’s victory speech!
The last thing America’s average Joe wants to hear after this election is: Meet the new boss, same as the old boss – cause we won’t get fooled again.
But you have to forgive me being a child of the 60s.

Taking Credit....?


I’m sure we all remember a time in our lives when we had a great idea. And the idea was implemented - and it was a great success – in fact, it had a positive effect on people’s lives. And you felt good about what you had done,,, until some Pin Head took credit for your idea and claimed the success was all his doing. Remember how badly that pissed you off?
Well, that must be exactly how former President George W. Bush must have felt hearing the Socialist Obama on TV this past week talking about the end America’s combat mission in Iraq. And while our excuse for a leader was giving his “pat me on the back” speech, he actually mentioned the former President saying no one could doubt President Bush's support for our troops, or his love of country and commitment to our security. Ya Think? Wow, how astounding! Thanks for the news flash there, Barack, I would have never known that.
It is important to note that Senator Obama fought against the troop surge in Iraq and voted to cut funds to supply our troops – two positions totally opposite to Bush’s position of supporting the troops and having a commitment to security.
And then the top it all off, the Socialist Obama blamed all of our economic woes on money borrowed to fund the war. How ridiculous. I’m convinced President Obama thinks all Americans are idiots. Maybe he has a point, after all, we did vote him into office.
Perhaps if our President spent a little time reading history; he’d realize what courage George W. Bush demonstrated in taking down an evil dictatorship – even if there were no WMDs. Saddam was a mad man, capable of anything. The world is a better place without him and no one, not even Obama’s extreme leftist wackos can dispute that fact. History tells us if the leaders of the free world would of had the courage of George W. Bush back in the 1930s, there would be a few more people of the Jewish faith alive today.
