Ambiguous Leadership
That was history past, now we enter the 2nd year under his governance and still the fervent followers chant his mantra behind his every call to social arms. Behind him stands the watchdogs from his most ambiguous truth and his fervent followers tell themselves that all is needed to win the end game. A recent finale of a popular "Survivor" series illustrated this pervasive thought well. In the series the most popular player who sought the win by lies, deceit and gamesmanship lost to another who played a calculated and honest game. The masses of watchers were allowed to vote for the best game player, they voted for the man who played 'The end justifies the means' game.
Isn't this reflective of how our current elected President plays the 'Governing' game, just like he played the 'campaign' game?

Symbiotic World
We need to capture within ourselves an understanding of our dependency on all levels. When we realize we are not being good stewards of nature and society alike.
The challenge is to move ourselves from desperation to cooperation.
My outlook has changed as I have become more involved in teaching the positive aspects of each of us and our ability to adapt. Change is the only constant, today was different from yesterday and will be different from tomorrow.
If we are to become a World that progresses to a Universal participant we must make the ultimate sacrifice and abandon old practices of war, conflict that isolates us as a society of madness unconcerned for our fellow man. Humanity is being ignored by virtue of the lack of concern for the human condition in favor of a continued onslaught of Corporate and Government greed to keep us in a state of scarcity instead of plenty.
Each crisis has been man made to satisfy the nature of human behavior. How many times do we ask "What is in it for me?" Me Me Me This is desperation as we need to feel we have ownership of our own lives, when in truth none of us owns anything. materialism is an illusion of a failed monetary system that has reached it's theoretical upper limits.
It's time for all of us to learn new concepts and bring to bear our collective intelligence and end this death spiral which ultimately will bring World conflict such as none of us has witnessed in History.
We in America have to understand this word to stand up to tyranny on a scale we haven't had too since the civil war times. For years we have allowed our government to legislate our freedoms away. The challenge before us is a great one as many of us have come to our senses, we need to unite in a way that is kin to rebellion on a peaceful scale. I do not promote violence, but if we do not take our government back soon they will spend and create an entitlement laden structure we all will pay for in Taxes. For years I have been screaming against the way we do business and govern, we have elected officials who have lost the vision for America. We don't need change that pulls us away from our founding father's intents for a Democracy.
No matter who's side you are on, I hope we haven't let loose of one founding belief. "We the people, by the people, for the people". If we have then we must stop and agree to disagree, but remove ALL those who will not govern for that one thing that has made us strong.
Stand there and say that there is nothing you can do and lose more freedoms or stand up with one loud voice and say to our Government. Enough is enough, stop the crap that undermines that one simple principle now. You work for us and if you don't bend to our will then get out of our way, leave in disgrace before we make you leave. This is OUR Country not yours alone to do as you see fit.
It would be a shame, while looking at our children and grandchildren, to leave them an environment that no longer resembles what our forefathers intended for them too.
Responsibility and Accountability will just become words that we can no longer believe in and yet those two words are the reasons we have arrived at this moment in history. Our president uses two words metaphorically as he works to his place in history, which is all he really wants, a place in history for himself. He's going to get it, The first black president and the leader of the demise of the world's greatest country. The dismantling of all we hold dear has run rampant for long enough when our leaders bend and manipulate the American people's freedoms behind closed doors and under the table deals that do not reflect the people as a whole. I no longer want to hear these two words, "unprecedented & transparency". History will find these two words as lies and deceit towards the America I so dearly love. It only takes a moment of reflection to understand that we do not want to be a developing country, but rather the leader of the FREE world.
Corruption and unethical behavior has infiltrated our every thought, in the public, private and governmental structures. I don't believe we approve as a nation and people.
2010 is a New Year! We are on the verge of total economic disaster! Can't you see people of the world "Our meltdown in this Country, is the meltdown of world economies!" Speak now or forever accept that which you allowed to happen, as for me, I am a patriot! A believer in freedom for all!
Without the belief in freedom, we have nothing to believe in at all!
