this is not about rallys..this is about the future of this nation..in maybe the worst times in my 57 years..
i really don't care what a bunch of college kids at a rally are doing..i care that people get health care now..people i am paying for each and every time i go to the hospital because there are so many without it..that is tagged onto my bill ( and that i don't care about..) but each time i am charged for those without health insurance ..it skims off my lifetime cap of inusrance available to me and my family.
and i am not too comfortable having college kids decide who will be my president becaue most have not served this nation like many of their parents have and like my husband and brothers and father and grandfather have..i want people who have made the sacrifice to make this country great making more of the decisions of who runs this country..you know..people who have earned the wisdom and have respect for that wisdom..
I would love the college age kids next to me learning..so they can take over one day..but they have not earned the wisdom yet to make those decisions in my book ,yet. A rally does not a president make.
we have one of those now and have for almost 8 years now..and because a bunch of kids and fundy religious types and people too lazy to find out the truth about the guy.. who used the bully bullshit..the tactics of attack the messenger..you know like is being done by the Obama people, as evidenced every day..just here at du..the same type of tactics were used to put this criminal in my white house..and consequently many of my co-workers died and my neighbors sons died on 9/11 because of the fools who wouldn't look into this pricks background and wouldn't ask questions about him...and made the messengers of the info about him the enemy.....nope people just wanted to have a beer with him..no haasles..no looking into his previous lies and distortions and his past failures..and past friendships and business partners ..and who supported him and where his money came from...no one one wanted those responsibilities..they just wanted a beer with the idiot...well....beer = dead people.
No ..i understood you entirely..now understand me..learn all you can about any candidate you support..ask every damn question you can ..as if your life depended on it..because it just might!..it did for my co-workers..and each and every day my neighbors wake up without their sons..one was 24 ..one was 28...
yes i understood you..now go learn something ..and stop the arrogance..i have raised college kids..i know who you are and where you are coming from..and no you have not earned my respect yet...THAT DOESN'T MEAN I WON'T LOVE YOU ALL ..I DO...I ADORE KIDS..I ADORE 20+ OPEN MINDS AND HEARTS....BUT YOU HAVE LIFE TO LEARN ABOUT BEFORE YOU GAIN MY RESPECT..RESPECT IS EARNED....you have alot of work ahead of you for that. Respect is a two way street..from what i have seen around here from the 20+ age group..i see no respect whatsoever..and i think alot of that brought the grown ups out yesterday.
