Hey, guys.
When did the American population lose it's memory?
It must be a massive case of Alzheimer's.
No one seems to remember that our present situation was caused by the acts of the previous administration and the Republican congress. It wasn't Obama who stuck us in a intractable combat situation in the Middle East. It wasn't the newly elected Democratic majority Congress that allowed businesses to run rampant and uncontrolled and create the present fiscal crisis.
And yet, the present administration seem to be the whipping boy for all these ills. I'm confused.
Oh, yes, NOW I remember.
It's the fear mongers in the media and in the right wing groups who are screaming this idea. Blame Obama, blame the Democrats, blame the Mexicans, blame anybody you don't like or agree with. Don't debate, scream. Don't discuss, argue. Don't listen, threaten.
Everyday I read new statements from supposedly rational members of Congress and the media warning of impending doom.
Apparently, we're going to hell in a hand-basket!
Come on, people, THINK! Use your brain for something other than keeping your ears from hitting each other!
Get back to rational discourse and discussion about what ails this great nation of ours. We have some serious issues to deal with and screaming at people and creating fear and hate won't solve them.
Oh, yea. I forgot.
We don't remember HOW to talk to each other.
Damn Alzheimer's!
