120908 MTAS Thank You Lord

The reason for all of this is that I am tired of legislators and government in general ignoring me, intruding into my life, and affecting my ability to live in retirement.  I have enjoyed as much as I can stand of that and it is time for me to get more vocal. 

Inspired by a promotional piece for a webcast, this is the first product of the “new and improved” My Thoughts and Stuff publishing empire (HA!)

Here goes…

Thank You Lord, we are past the political convention milepost.  I enjoyed more than I could stand of posturing, the over the top speeches, and mainstream media attempts to shape public perception.  I cannot recall when we have ever seen the candidate’s ideals and their party platforms so absolutely opposite.    

On one side, we have the far left socialist theory where government is everything, God does not exist, tolerance is touted as the supreme moral concept, and if you disagree then you are a vile, pandering racist who wants to suppress and enslave women.  Never mind the fact that the economy is in free-fall.   

On the other side, you have concepts that sort of align with the Constitution, but far from the original intent of that document.  The far right says that government is not a unifying model and that God and His precepts are above all and the basis for civil government. 

Both parties gave us the Patriot Act, the TSA, drones that watch our every move just to mention a few.  

Voting this November is going to be a crucial act in which we determine what kind of nation we are. 

The choice is between Socialism and mega-government intrusion or the Founding Father’s vision of limited government and liberty.  This election will determine and represent the nation’s beliefs and values, and in January 2013, the person who places his hand on the Bible will be whom we have chosen, and by extension, whom we deserve.
