America is a diverse country, in almost any manner your choose to use the word diverse. Ethnically, religious beliefs, physical geography, you name, we got it.
For while we are all different from each other in many ways, we are also the same; we used to be anyway.
A republic started at great peril by courageous men over 200 years ago, who rebelled against a King, for they would not be servants nor subject, but desired to be free, and citizens. This nation grew from that beginning, and along the way corrected things as they needed to be. And grew as a culture, a nation united.
People immigrated here, seeking prosperity and freedom.
My own ancestors came and learned the dominant language. They sought out other people of the same faith, and joined those churches or synagogues. They worked hard, and joined their neighbors when the country was in peril .
They sought to simply have a better life, and each generation since has sought the same.
There was a belief in our country, in the people.
I remember the last time I saw that unity was September 11, 2001. Didn’t matter what your politics, what your background, what you looked like, young or old, because in that singular eventful day we saw that it’s us that we care about.
We got distracted since then, from working together, to yelling and screaming at each other about Iraq, Afghanistan, Bush-Cheney, etcetera, and in our search for something better we forgot who we are, what we stand for as a culture, as a society, as an experiment in republican government. Not GOP Republican, but as a republic, where the people elect a representative, who then is supposed to meet with other representatives in meeting in Congress.
Congress is a word that means “A formal assembly of representatives, to discuss problems”, yet ours don’t seem to do that anymore
The slimmest of majorities elected a total ass clown President, a man many doubt meets the citizenship standard to be President, let alone to have any qualification that warranted his election, save one. He is a capable speaker. The willing buy into the dishonesty's that are uttered by this master of deceitfulness – in plain speak, this BS artist conned his way into being a Senator, and now President.
And now here we are, sidetracked from dealing with our national issues because this man is creating more issues than solving.
So let’s reclaim our focus, and deal with the issues that confront us. Starting with electing representatives dedicated to stopping the dishonest and deceitful lies that become laws, and begin to return this country to what it should be...the United States of America, One nation, indivisible…
We have become so tolerant that today states are required to provide benefits to anyone, even those that cannot read or speak the language of American culture. We have polluted the meaning of words that terms like racist, socialist, radical, leftist, conservative, et al have ceased being nouns to become pejoratives.
Thanks for listening, I know many will disagree, but I worried…

Ahh, but words do have meanings, and Obama is a racist and a Marxist, and is on record as having contempt for middle class whites. His policies do discriminate against middle class whites. So it's all very straightforward. If you can't speak the truth about something like that, then truth has no meaning.
