I guess this should have been the first post I wrote. I kind of jumped right in because this is a free blog service through Google and I liked the way the templates looked. So I said "What the hell". As most of you know who are on my email address book I have no problem sending political emails about stuff that I think is important to us as Americans. I am a history buff and I think that what is happening in this country today politically is as important as any attack from any outside enemy of this nation. The only thing is there are two enemies of freedom and liberty loving citizens of the U.S.1) The liberal politicians and their attack dogs. i.e. The media and the liberal, socialist groups that fund the attacks on the Constitution, the Military and people's freedom's and rights such as Moveon.org and Mediamatters.org. Not to mention the communist founded group the ACLU, who would rather defend the Homosexual child rapists of NAMBLA than defend U.S. citizens against injustices say of illegal taxations or anti gun groups trying to take away our Second amendment rights both federally and state wide.
2) The complacency of the American people. Listed is the definition of it.

You see this complacency every day in people's lack of interest in today's real dangers of our politicians non actions on issues that the answers to are elementary for the well being of the country. You see it when you speak to them when their eyes gloss over on certain subjects. People (our elected officials especially) make issues too complicated. Sometimes things ARE black and white. Many times there ARE simple answers to complicated questions. The problem is that many politicians are doing and have done whatever it takes to stay in power on both sides! That means they take money from groups and individuals to help them get re elected and in return they have to DO something for that money. That's where they get in trouble and they get taken off course. Of course if there were really moral men and women in these political offices this wouldn't be an issue. The problem is that the really good, smart and qualified people in this country that would return us to small government either don't want to go through the scrutiny of themselves and their families from the media to get elected or they don't want to take the pay cut. Who can blame them. Then you have people like me and most of you I like to think, who would do the right thing for the country, but can't afford to run for public office. I'll get into that more in the future. So there is a perfect example of why, just on a political stand point, that I am blogging. I welcome opposing political views if you have them. I would just ask that you are civil in your opposition and if you have any proof of what you are stating that would be good too. Also, by proof I don't mean an opinion piece from someone at the New York Times. I mean facts. Well, like I said before this blog won't be all politics. Signing off -for now. drewby
