thoughts...

I know we can survive this election. We have survived so many in the past. It still grieves me to know that a majority of Americans appear to allow them selves to be deceived so easily. I honestly thought people took the time to actually understand and know the lies they were being told. I mark today as a day of mourning. It is like 9-11 only we won't be seeing the effects until the next presidential nominee...will we give them the power to change that also "for our greater good?" Why do so many people think that it is easier for the government to control them? Are we becoming a lazy people who would rather be lead than to lead? Who is Obama that we had 'to prove to him that we were ready for change?' If socialism hasn't worked for other countries, then why do we think we are different? It will prove misery in the years to come. We are not free when we allow others to lead us with a leash, no matter how much slack we think they have left in our cord.
