people aren’t ready for change

i was accused of being in a state of “narrow minded negativity” recently because apparently, i refuse to see change.
it’s only partially true. i do see change- and i do appreciate it but i am one who doesn’t shy away from raising the bar higher. i am someone who believes adults should act like adults and not overgrown adolescents- so, i guess i do tend to come out more on the pessimistic side of life.
i continue to be amazed by the number of people who would love to vote for dennis kucinich- but he has no chance of winning the nomination. thankfully though- he is part of the process and is necessary to ‘further the conversation’ for the more viable candidates (snark). divajood gave us all a snicker with her onion video recently, but i think we probably were chuckling more because it’s really true. love that satire.
we love to talk about change- and i have a feeling that’s why obama is doing so well- that’s his platform- his message. change. i don’t doubt his heart is in the right place and i don’t doubt he will try if elected.
there are those who see hard work as more important than the showier rhetoric- and i fall into that category- but i would also throw in integrity- and i have a feeling mrs. clinton is a wee lacking there. she assured us new yorkers she was running for re-election to be there as our senator. well, see where that got us.
how many interviews and how much proof do we need that kucinich would be someone who could start the process of leading us out of this nightmare? he believes in separation of church and state- he most definitely believes in restoring the constitution- he believes in ending the middle east invasion- if you don’t believe me- check out his own words. just google the man. he has a beautiful, compassionate, brilliant wife sans botox injections- and he puts his money where his mouth is.
yes, iowa is over and new hampshire is looming, but don’t let that sway your decision- take a look at the issues. take a look at the candidate’s stands- they all have websites- it only takes a moment. don’t buy what the pundits and corporate owned msm is telling you. take a hard look at the issues that are important to you- and where the candidates stand. then vote.

We have got to have change as I told the relentless Liberal today, who I am going to meet and talk to him tomorrow. Bush changed our America to his Nazi version. It is imperrrative that we change it back to our America. Changing America is the easiest part the next President has to deal with. I have a bunch of links on my site as to Prescott Bush’s complicity with the Nazi’s and his desire to kill FDR. Remember skull and bones? There is so much that was known even during WW2 amd I am stunned that Prescott not only was let go but little Bushie was allowed to finish his agenda.

Obama talks a good game but he does take corporate and lobby money. Kucinich doesn’t, which is probably one of the reasons he HAS no money.
Good post Betmo!

Change will only come if the real powers that be, those we will never see but affect our lives everyday, if they will allow it.
And that will never happen.
