We're not doing so good here in this country right now. We've been lied to and ignored by the Bush Administration. Today, not tomorrow and not after the election we need to have a leader, not a decider, to lead the people of this nation into the joyfulness that we felt for the last 4 terms of presidency.

We must not sit and expect things to correct themselves. It won't happen. We need to take charge of our country and its future. We are a strong people, even though sometimes we're a little rowdy and sometimes a little slow to learn. Does anyone remember watching the parade of the flag and feeling that surge of wonderful patriotism? When we wanted to be a world leader because we were fair and just -- because we stood for freedom.

You can find an itemized list of wrong-doings committed these last years. I say to you, each and every voter, put the past behind us and go forward with morality, decency and respect for ourselves and the rest of our planet brothers.

If you look at the candidates only one tries to be a kind, thoughtful and forward-thinking person.
This man can stand clean and unmarked by the political whorl that has gripped the nation these many years. He has no big political steam rollers and no big lobby. He wants to be honest and truthful. He wants us to be truthful and honest.

We can't substitute "truthiness" for actual truth. Despicable is what clings to the behavior of this administration and Bush-Cheney in particular. As they set themselves up to "do it their way" they have set into motion a decline in democracy and freedom. The very freedom we enjoy is melting away and while we fiddle.

Congress keeps getting scared by the bullies. Congress is not following what they were elected to do. Does anyone have the courage to stand up for the ideals and principals that our forefathers wanted for these United States.

Arrogance and duplicity are trade marks of the old parties. We need honesty, reason and compassion back in our land. We need to respect others and behave in a way that will give other nations a reason to respect us.

Trust in God! Does it say which deity we must claim? Of course not, and wisely so. Your God is not my God. Let's put some of these problems in the hands of a capable man.

Support Barack Obama! Even if you don't like him, read on his web site what some of his solutions to those scorching problems we face today. Instead of "letting George do it" let's get a man in the White House who is strong, humble and intelligent.

Happy Halloween!

Pace maker Felt marker -- I go electrical!

A week ago Tuesday I was taken to the hospital. The next morning I got a pacemaker that makes my heart go --( YOU GOT IT) paces my heart beat. I am doing great, feeling better every day although I never felt bad, just a bit tired. So I've got a getting-well eye surgery (starting to see some) and two new scars on my chest. Obviously, I was in a fight with a gunslinger and he plugged me on either shoulder, no doubt causing the need for a pace maker. Shucks, I don't 'member that gunfight at the Dead Wood Bar.

The dogs are taking good care of me. They lie close and tell me to rest. They also bark at any offensive intrusion but were unable to adequately run off the church lady and her cohorts today. Had I been up, I would have shouted, "Go away go away, ye brood of vipers." Religion is private to me and that is an imposition to have individuals witness to me. Oh well. What do you supposed they get paid? solid gold charms from heaven? Pearly gate coins to be spent on five star accommodations when they get there? Somehow I remember something about " being able to lay up stores in heaven."

Still though, such drop-ins are an intrusion to me. Just looked it up and here's the quotes:
Matt. 6:19 "Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

That's about all I have to say. I'm tired. So bye for now. And remember, humor is good for everyone.
