How ’bout sadness, pain, or joy … do these have a color? Wait, maybe pride has a color. I am so sick and tired of the forces that seek to divide us as a country, that want to weaken the very fabric of our nation that makes us strong.
I am tired of the games being played by our bogus President and the bogus bunch of buffoons masquerading as politicians that sit in Congress passing laws that they exempt themselves from. Yes, a sub-par health reform package for the plebs with a real health care package reserved for themselves and their families.
Remember that famous line in When Harry met Sally … “I’ll have what she’s having?” Yes, I want access to the very same health care package that the members of Congress have … no more, no less! If it’s good enough for Pelosi it’s good enough for me.
I’m tired of the race card and all the “isms” that go along with it … you know racism, conservatism, etc. I’m tired of all the descriptors that come before American … Hispanic, African, Conservative, Christian, Jewish … the list is endless … fill in the blank.
How ’bout this? How ’bout, from now on we stop putting anything ahead of American first! From now on we are Americans who happen to be African, or Irish, French, Polish, Armenian, we are people of color … or not. We are brave, courageous and contrary to what Bill Maher thinks we are not stupid! One sip of the Kool-Aid and we knew it was poison.
How ’bout we start defending ourselves against those who seek to divide us for political gain … those who know that by dividing and demoralizing us they can defeat us.
There are no “isms” at the end of freedom or democracy or brotherhood … not the way I spell them!
Absolutely agree. If I did the before-American, it would be I’m “English-Irish-Choctaw-Cherokee American”. Now doesn’t that sound silly! Of course it does. I can claim nothing from where my ancestors came from…only they have the right to do that. I am an American…..period!
