I'm lucky in a way, my friends all put up with me, in spite of my "opinions".   While I consider myself to be a conservative, I have friends that are not.  That being said, I get to hear their reasoning or arguments for what they believe.  When from time to time I have actually closed my mouth and listened, I think I hear we all have the same hopes and dreams.  The difference comes, in how we "get there".

I don't have the time, or the inclination really, to do a breakdown on all the "finger pointing" going on.  We can suffice it to say that while there is NO clear answer to America's core problems.  There is a starting point.  Leadership. The elected officials have been slapping a band-aid on issues requiring surgery.  Our countries problems have been building for years, they didn't arrive overnight and we're not going to rid them overnight either.  What we have to do is "peel it back".

Yes, this will cause more problems.  What America is founded on, is in the preamble of the Constitution.

"We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America".

The problem we have, is many Americans are ready to toss out the constitution.  You hear all kinds of things about how the constitution is outdated, ok, what about the preamble?  I might be going out on a limb here, but it seems to me, this is exactly what everyone says they want.  Do I have any argument?  Nowhere will you find the word "guarantee" in the preamble.  There are no guarantees!  What we must decide as a country, is are we going to stick with what has been working for over two hundred years, and made America the greatest country on earth, or are we going continue to move away from the rules that allowed for it.

The "moving away", has caused the issues we now face.  Evil is alive and well, power, greed and corruption are crippling us.  It can be found on both sides of the aisle and in every race and religion in America and damn near every other facet as well. We must each decide where we stand.  

The constitution and the bill of rights, are the foundation of America.  It should not change.  Accountability from our leadership is where we need to start. Right now Big business and Big government are holding us hostage, because absolute power, corrupts absolutely.  And it has indeed!  If you are a democrat, republican or some other party or an independent you need to get involved.  You have to be involved.  It's going to take a grassroots level movement to fundamentally "fix" America.  Some already exist but should not be limited to only a handful.  Many people didn't think that they could be cohesive enough to do anything, and then you look back on election of 2010.  They were wrong.

In a democracy, it's majority rule.  We the people, are the majority. Now we need to put it in action.
Obama, must understand that we are ready for real change and that the rules are changing.

And my crystal ball says............"Holy Shit.....Run!!"

Yep, this is my first post election, post.  I'm not a happy camper, but am not I frothing at the mouth with hysterical anger either.  So to my detractors I hope you feel vindicated, I lost this round.  My hope is that America has not been lost forever.

On election night I was working out of state on the pipeline.  I was keeping up with the returns using my Twitter feed.  Now let me say this, after the debates I was feeling very iffy about Romney's victory.  When Americans failed to see how uninformed our president is, and how petty he is willing to be, and all of this with the full support of main stream media.  I knew it was gonna be close.  It was becoming clear that this election had two possible outcomes.  I had in fact, told several people that it would be extremely close with a BO victory, or Romney would walk away with it.  My gut instinct ending up prevailing and BO won a second term, this unlikely scenario brought us here today.

America is either in it's final death throes, or it is in the latter stage of an incurable terminal illness.  Why?  Because if your really cannot see the divide in this country, and our direction, caused by the BO administration, you are truly an idiot.  I think most votes came from emotion and the Hollywood sales pitch glamorization by the main stream media.  Call me a racist, but Obama was pushed over the line this time around because of the Black vote, sure many Hispanic and Whites also voted for him, but the the Black vote was significant, because without it, he would have been defeated.  In my opinion, the only reason most blacks voted for BO is because of his color, not his qualifications.  Call me what you will and that is fine, but I am a realist.

My crystal ball say's "Run for your life!".  The amount of gun sales has gone crazy and if you look at the ammunition sales, OMG!!!  Ammunition sales makes the gun sales look like a failure in comparison.  I really feel that we will begin to see armed conflict in our communities.  It will be caused by racial tension and rising poverty levels.  Thanks BO.  You wanted a race and class war, well looks like that could be reality, look for a "police state" coming to place near you soon. When main stream media did not denounce the people suggesting violence if Romney was elected, it was the wake up call I needed.  The left will jump on any form of "gun control" band wagon, and yet missed this great opportunity.  I also realized that there is no accurate description for the left anymore.  You could call them the "shot gun left" for more reasons than one.  You certainly cannot call them the "party of intellect", because none have actually thought through four more years of this administration. So .... they, you, ... whatever, have all bought into the fairy tale of BO.  The definition of insanity has never so clearly fit an election.

The left is taking us down.  It is done out of ignorance, greed, and blind faith in a pied piper that couldn't find his ass with both hands.  We will  see mass defections from the BO faithful in the new year, and four years to come (like that pun), as things get worse.  Eventually even the most hardened idiots will begin to see through the lies.  The economy is going to continue to suffer under Obama care, which has become more apparent with the recent layoffs attributed to the costs created by Obama care. beforeitsnews.com/.../latest-layoffs-due-to-obamacare-pennsyl...   The unions cut their own throat with the "Hostess" fiasco, more Dems without jobs.   I have a feeling this scene will be replayed many, many times.  Hopefully you will wake up while there is still time on the clock and you still have job.

Oh, and what about Libya?  They are dragging this out so Americans will become so fed up with hearing about it, it get's tuned out.  If you are intelligent and you are a realist, you should understand that it was another failure of BO.  Our ambassador was murdered and our president hid the facts.      

This is not the America I was born in.  This is not the America I want.  There needs to be a requirement for everyone on the left, please understand simple economics. The slackers have taken over and I don't want to pay for their party.  My crystal ball says......"Holy Shit....Run", but that just ain't me, a democrat........ maybe.
