As the election nears and more and more people are getting into the fervor that comes with the campaigning, I am becoming more opinionated as well. I turned to CNN.com for some news this morning to see what kind of junk they were going to post. To my delight there was something of value there that I can use to make a point.
CNN reports that a new poll (done by a CNN research group) says that 75% of Americans believe things are going badly in our country. The same poll says that again 75% of Americans are angry about the situation in our country. It drops to 66% that say they are scared about the way things are going and 75% that are worried or stressed.
We try endlessly to lay blame...that is all this election has been about for the two major parties. McCain did this, Obama did that, Bush did this...and all of that led to our problems. This poll should lead us to a revelation of sorts, which is that the blame belongs on both sides of the aisle. Big G Government is to blame. McCain and Obama are to blame. Bush is to blame. Every president for the last 100 years is to blame.
If you found that to be harsh, I don't care anymore. The government as it stand right now with the Republicans and the Democrats in charge will not, let me emphasize that, WILL NOT solve your problems. Government intervention will not solve our problems. It WILL NOT help us.
I'm making a plea as we get down to the wire. If you value your freedoms as an American, VOTE FOR SOMEONE ELSE this election.
