Wake Up America!

I’ve been watching a lot of things lately.

I’ve been watching the Republicans scramble around after their November ass-kicking. The Republican leadership is in a sorry state of dissolution searching in vain for any remnants of the Reagan revolution it can find. They all echo the refrain of “Reagan this” and “Reagan that”…sounding like wounded children whose big brother is no longer around to protect them.

I’ve been watching a president with whom I cannot tell whether he is grossly inept or downright out to tank this country on purpose. I’ve watched him and his party pushing forward policy after policy that is antithetical to my country’s beliefs and that are quickly and surely marching my country towards Marxism. And now, even some of the most ardent supporters of Barack Obama from 2008 avoid answering questions about him or his policies.

And I’ve been watching my country, my poor, poor country. Dear God…we are lost. There is little political discourse around the water cooler. No one wants to think about it or to see it anymore…they just want things to get better but when you ask them how their faces become blank and they mutter something about the problems being too big for one person then change the subject. It’s frightening the amount of disengagement present in the American mind.

After having watched this for the past few sobering months I have some things to say.

To the Republicans:
Wake UP! Quit quoting Reagan and start doing the things that need doing. For 2 election cycles in a row you’ve had your ass handed to you by the clowns currently in power and it will be a 3rd if you don’t get yourselves together and start moving forward. The mainstream media is correct in their assumption that you lost because you’re ideas were wrong and wrong-headed. But they’re wrong about why your ideas stunk…it’s not because you don’t think enough like them, it’s because you think like them too much. For God’s sake it’s not about image, it’s about ideas and principles. Arm yourselves with sound ideas and truth and then fight the bastards tooth and nail. Margaret Thatcher said “First you win the argument then you win the war.” It’s time to man up, admit to the stupidities of the past and START MOVING FORWARD.

To the President and his party:
Wake UP! Take a look and see what’s going on around you. Do you really believe in the things you are doing? Do you really believe that the government should care for all the people all the time? Do you really believe that the American Constitution was a failure?

To my Country:
Wake UP! Wake UP! Wake UP! This is the greatest nation on earth and the last stand for the hope of millions. If democracy and capitalism fail here, there is nowhere left to go! Get your minds in gear, engage…engage before it is too late! Pay attention to your rights begin stripped away from you! Pay attention to a government that is running rampant with YOUR MONEY and the POWER YOU LOANED IT! Get up! Get Mad! DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT and let the whole world know how mad you are!Wake UP America! Before it's too late...WAKE UP!
