I am Angry and Pissed Off

I'm mad. I'm pissed. Want to know why I'm writing this at 1am? It's because of our potential presidential candidates. I never thought in a million years I would say this but I hope Hillary wins the election if it's between her and Barack. Yes, I mean the presidential election. The whole kit and kaboodle. Not just the primary. I couldn't put my finger on it buy my dad described what I was feeling perfectly. It's because "we know what to expect with Hillary" and we have no freaking clue what Barack is going to do.

If you look at his track record you will see that he is more liberal than Ted Kennedy and Hillary Clinton. I didn't think it was possible to be more liberal than good 'ol Ted. Something is clearly wrong with this picture. It's more than him being pro-abortion and big government. What do we really know about this man? We know that his mother was white and his father was black. We know that he was in a muslim school for many years. Does this mean he is a Muslim? Not necessarily but when you have been indoctrinated for many years don't you think it holds on to you in some way?

But wait... he's a Christian. He attends a Church of Christ church in Chicago. Hahaha. What a crock of shit. Yes, I'm cursing on here. I rarely do so even when I'm upset or feel the words are best used for 2 reasons. One I don't want to sound trashy and two because I know my grandparents read this and don't want to offend them. However, there are no other words to describe this.

Barack Hussein Obama has attended this church since the early 1990's. The Sr. pastor there married he and his wife and has been a mentor to Barack by Barack's own admission. So if Barack has said in the past that he has gone to this so called pastor for guidance, etc. you would think that he really believes in him. Right?

This so called pastor has been standing in the pulpit spewing sermons of hatred and descrimination. I had the wonderful privledge of hearing clips from his sermon. Yes, he compares 9/11 to the slavery us rich white folks put the blacks through. Let's see, he also compares it to the Tuskegee Experiement, which I have to admit I had never heard of and upon researching I am sickened by it but still. He goes on and on how the white people are pretty much out to get the black people. You should hear his congregation hooping and hollering with every statement he makes.

Growing up in Montgomery I was surrounded by a lot of racism. This might surprise some but it wasn't all from the whites, a lot of it was by the blacks. It seemed that some just couldn't let things die. I'm talking about kids in high school. Did they have a relative that they personally knew suffering from the effects of slavery? No. Have I personally held them back? No. Did the black girls have a right or justification to shove the white girls down in the halls and smack their lips at us and say "excuse you bitch"? No. I'm sick of it. I'm tired of it. I'm tired of paying for what happened 150 years ago. Can I change it? No. No one can. I'm tird of the division and the race card that is played by both sides.

I am disgusted by the fact that this so called pastor can preach from the pulpit hatred towards whites. What makes me even madder is that if a white pastor or any white person said something that was 1/1,000,000 of what he said that they would be persecuted in the media, personally, etc. They would be called racists. Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton (and no you're not a reverent to me and neither is good 'ol Jesse. You both make me sick) and probably Alvin Holmes (now he'd be trotting in late) would be on the persons front porch trying to lynch them for their comments. It's not fair.

So while this pastor has said some horrible hateful things. Oh yeah, like they should rename the USA to the "KKK of A". Nice. Great role model. Now this Barack is coming out trying to distance himself from his pastor. The same pastor that he embraced and said that was his mentor. If he has been in his church for 15 or so years don't you think that he has to agree with some of this? I don't know many people who would sit in a church every week for 15 years while disagreeing so deeply with the pastor and leader of the church. I don't buy it.

I'm sick and tired of the hoopla over him. I wasn't around during the 60's and 70's but the movement around him makes me think of what it was like back then. All the young hippy idiots who rallied around the anti-war movement and other causes. It was more than anything because they wanted to be apart of something. This is what is happening with Barack. Please don't rally around a cause or someone unless you know the facts. Know where they stand politically.

I don't want everyone to think like me, okay, I do, who am I kidding. Seriously, but give it deep thought. For those of you who think he'll be a great leader give it time. Before long he'll have things so screwed up and on such a path that will be hard to recover from. If you aren't voting for McCain then vote for Hillary. Please. We know what's in store with her. And of course Bill too. He'll be in the White House playing with cigars again (bad bad bad for me to say, I know).

I am terrified of what our kids have to look forward to. I am scared that one day this country will be in such a bigger mess that our kids won't be able to fix it.

We don't want universal healthcare. It's also bullshit when they give the number of people who don't have healthcare. You know it's not because all of them can't get it. It's because they refuse to. Almost every single one of Lee's employees declined the insurance from his company. It's because they refuse to pay the $150 premiums a month. They'd rather go to the ER each time because they know the ER has to see them. Most people can have healthcare. They just choose not to.

The welfare system sucks too. I think I touched on this before but I'll say it again. I was 20 years old and made a little under 20k when I had Mackenzie. I declined a raise so I wouldn't earn more than 20k just so I could qualify for WIC. I was not eligible for any other assistance. I went in to the WIC office and I was the only white person. I was also one of the few that only had 1 kid. I may have been the only one in there that didn't play the system. The ladies had 3 or 4 kids. Their kids decked out in matching Polo or Tommy. They had the latest and most expensive strollers. They rolled in their pimped out cars. They played the system and they play it well.

You know who is also getting played? Us. Do you know who pays for that? We do. The hard working tax payers of the United States of America. It is damn sure not my responsibility to take care of those who just refuse to work. Who would rather live in the projects, collect checks, food stamps and sell drugs for extra money. (I know all don't sell drugs) I am sick of those who really need the help not bein able to get it. I am disgusted that I went to get child care assistance and I was refused but this chick w/ 3 kids w/ 3 different baby daddies who worked at Burger King got it. She only worked part time. Who was going somewhere? Me, who worked at a mortgage company and had proved to work really hard and make something of myself or this girl who collected welfare, got free childcare and worked part time flipping burgers.

The system is broken. Does electing a Republican fix it? No. But does electing one who believes in bigger government, abortion and welfare going to fix it? HELL NO!

Wake up America. Our time is before us. This isn't about the war in Iraq or the sins of our past Presidents or the blunders our leader is making now. This is about our future. The future of my kids, your kids, your grandchildren. Stand up for us. It can all be taken away in a short time. We must protect our country.

Whew... I feel much better getting this all out of me. I mean every word. Before you vote think about the impact of your one vote can have on us all.
