If you clicked on this blog thinking this was some sweet or cute post about the pets of various politicians. I'm sorry, you've been misled. This blog is on a much more pointed subject that is likely to annoy or offend some readers, but I'm saying must be said. So if you're still here by the time you've gotten this far into my post, let us proceed with the real nature of this post.
What is a pet? To save time and energy (my internet is unpredictable) I'll allow you to google it or look it up somewhere, but to capsulize it- it is an animal which is dependent on its owner for its needs and therefore blindly loyal to that owner. I can already catch a glimmer in your eyes as those brillant synapses are firing. Work those juices.
Now apply it simply to politics. Statists such as FDR, Clinton and Obama and Pelosi and Reid like to acquire pets. Not just that dog Obama promised his girls... Electorate pets. Statism is basically the idea of creating a state wherein the government increasingly causes the people to become more and more dependent on its programs and then to become blindly loyal to that government therefore forsaking rational thought in their voting process and therefore the unconcious surrender of human liberties.
Whether Obama's voters realize it or not, they were basically affirming to Obama that they want him to decide how their lives should be run, what kind of healthcare they should have, how much money they should make, how much value their lives are worth. That's exactly the Statist's dream. It's the true American's worst nightmare.
What's the essential difference between people and pets? Is it not a free thinking mind, conscious not only of sentience but reason and rationality, morality, and faith? Blind allegience is below human mental capacity. All who believe in freedom and liberty and love what America stands for should make it their privelege to dig and study and learn so as to be informed in all pertinent matters and that includes nitty gritty facts about politics, history and religion. If you truly believe you are a rational human being PLEASE stop blindly drinking the Obama koolaid and do some independent study into his background and motives and what's REALLY going on at Capital Hill. The truth shall set you free...
This is great, THIS is the piece I'd like to take and put in my next issue, I already have you penciled in as my Guest Writer for page 8. Is that okay with you??? LMK!!!
(Of course I would MODIFY it slightly, considering it will be in a MAG not a BLOG.....but essentially it would be UNCHANGED.)
@clintspirations - yay! sounds great to me:) let me know if I need to expand or clarify anything- I wish to give my best.
@PreciousOnyx - I think it's great AS IS, frankly.....I'll just change the OPENING to "If you came to this page thinking this was some sweet or cute article".....and I'll correct the minor spelling and sentence errors, but the GIST of it is absolutely GREAT!!! When the time comes closer to publication date, I'll ask you your real (full) name and what STATE you're from, etc.....though I think I know the STATE part.
You'll be taking MARTHA'S place as "Guest Writer" (see page 8 of first issue) because Martha, HOPEFULLY, will be a REGULAR writer for the mag!!! Thank you for your willingness to contribute.
Nice post.
uh-huh
I agree! I don't like political pets.They give real pets a bad name.
Good post. Important stuff.
Scribble outside the lines...
Exactly! We shouldn't turn to one person or one source for anything and think that all the answers will be found there. More and more the 'powers that be' in Washington think it's okay to shove things down our throat and we'll swallow it whole. Not this person!
Oh, it's just so...real. They really are creating a dependency, and it makes me feel sick inside. It's been happening for years, though. It didn't start with Obama. It started so long ago.
I absolutely agree...but what is scary to me is that really intelligent...thoughtful people are entirely taken in by this hogwash that is spewing out of Washington right now!! Oooooooh don't get my started....lol Ruth Ann
