IT IS 12:30 A.M. AND I CAN NOT SLEEP, FOR TOO MUCH IS GOING ON IN MY HEAD. POLITICS, ECONOMY,THE WAR, IMMIGRATION, SO MUCH MORE. I WAS WRITING IN RESPONSE TO SOME PRETTY NASTY E-MAILS ON ANOTHER FORUM AND WANT I HAD TO SAY DID NO GOOD , MAYBE IT WILL DO BETTER HERE OR MAYBE I JUST NEED TO GET A LOAD OFF MY MIND.
WHO WILL BE A BETTER PRESIDENT, THE VERY IDEA SCARES ME, I AM ALMOST TO THE POINT OF SAYING DO WE REALLY HAVE TO HAVE ONE. IS THERE ANYONE WHO WILLL STAND UP FOR NOT ONLY THIS COUNTRY,BUT WHO WILL STAND UP FOR WHAT IS RIGHT. STOP SENDING THE JOBS OVER SEAS, SURE THE BIG GUYS ARE GETTING A BREAK, BUT THE LITTLE GUY IS GETTING. BUSH WANTED TO STIMULATE THE ECONOMY. WELL I 'M NO BUSINESS WOMAN BUT I KNOW ENOUGH THAT IF I HAVE A JOB I CAN BUY CLOTHES, FOOD, PAY MY RENT, AND THE UTILITIES, AND THOSE PEOPLE CAN DO LIKEWISE, AND SO ON, AND SO ON,ETC...BUT IF I DON'T HAVE A JOB AND I CAN NOT PAY THOSE THINGS FORGET ABOUT ANYTHING EXTRA, THEN LIKEWISE THOSE PEOPLE WILL NOT HAVE THEIR JOBS EITHER, AND THE PEOPLE THEY PAY WILL LOSE THEIR JOBS ALSO. I MEAN IT ISN'T THAT HARD TO FIGURE OUT SO WHY ARE WE ALLOWING OUR JOBS TO BE SENT AWAY. EVERYONE COMPLAINS BUT NO ONE STANDS TOGETHER AND SAYS NO MORE. THEY COMPLAIN ABOUT IT ONE DAY,GO TO BED, GET UP THE NEXT DAY AND DO THE SAME ALL OVER AGAIN. I REMEMBER WHEN I WAS A MUCH YOUNGER GIRL WHEN THIS COUNTRY DID NOT LIKE SOMETHING, THEY DID SOMETHING ABOUT IT IF THEY DID NOT LIKE THE PRESIDENT'S ACTIONS, HE WAS IMPEACHED, IF U DID'NT LIKE THE CANIDATES RUNNING FOR OFFICE YOU FOUND SOMEONE AND WROTE THEM IN AND VOTED THEM IN, YOU DIDN'T TAKE THE LESSER OF TWO EVILS. SURE WE STILL MADE MISTAKES, BUT WE DID'T ROLL OVER AND PLAYED DIED.GAS PRICES, BOY I REMEMBER WHEN THEY WHERE SO HIGH BEFORE(BY THE WAY THAT WAS A BIG LIE THEN ALSO). PEOPLE STOPPED DRIVING SO MUCH, YES THEY DID THEY RODE BIKES WALKED O RODE TOGETHER, BUT THEN THEN THE BIG GUYS GOT TIRED OF THE HIGH GAS PRICES (YES THE TRUCKERS) AND THEY STOPPED RUNNING AND WHEN THEY STOPPED THIS COUNTRY STOPPED. SO THAT DID NOT LAST TOO AWFULFULLY LONG.THE POINT I AM TRING TO MAKE IS , WHAT HAPPENED TO OUR VOICE? DID WE BECOME SO LAZY, DID THE DOLLAR,(WHICH BY THE WAY ISN'T AROUND AS MUCH AS IT USED TO BE IN CASE YOU HADN'T NOTICED) BECOME SO IMPORTANT. WELL FOR THI TIME I THINK I'VE RATTLED ON EOUGH, BUT I WILL SAY ONE LAST THING, THE OTHER DAY A "GENTLEMAN" CALLED ME A CONQUERED PEOPLE, YES BECAUSE I AM PART CHEROKEE INDIAN. LOOK AROUND NOW AND I THINK THE IRISH SIDE THAT ENGLAND TOOK OVER IN IRELAND IS ABOUT TO BE CONQUERED HERE. I AM NOT GOING DOWN LIKE THAT I WILL BE IT RED, WHITE YELLOW, OR GREEN WITH PURPLE POOK-A-DOTSI AM GOING TO SAY WHAT I FEEL I SHOULD SAY IT IS FROM MY HEART AND LIKE ARRON TIPPAN'S YOU'VE GOT TO STAND FORSOMETH'IN OR YOU'LL FALL FOR ANYTHING. MAYBE MY LANDS GOT CONQUERED, BUTNEVER MY HEART MIND OR SOUL. ALL FOR NOW SEE YA.
