Its starting - added comments

Friends,
As we go back and forth issues warnings of whom will be blamed lets keep in mind the people who had their lives cut short. I know I had to check myself and put things in perspective as I immediately upon hearing the news emailed everyone warning what was to come without truly thinking on the lose of life.

So lets not be like the Liberal/Socialist/Democrats whom seem to have pushed aside the real horror and are doing much finger pointing ready to pounce on this opportunity to implement their agenda. Lets be aware but lets not forget the real tragedy. Sad!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Continuing on.....
Right after I emailed everyone in my contacts I received replies. These are the comments:

Are you aware that Congresswoman Giffords was a Blue Dog democrat, and not a bleeding heart liberal like Pelosi? Did you know Giffords voted against Pelosi becoming minority speaker? The kid was 22. What the HELL is in a 22 year old kid's mind that makes it "understandable" to commit this action? Explain this to me. (name withheld)

OK I will explain!
NO HOPE! That is what is understandable.
Have we not removed God from everything? Have we not created class warfare? Have we not created a dependence on government? Have we not preached gloom and doom with the green movement that says the sky is falling? Have we not made our country unstable with little in the way of economic hope for the future? Have we not screwed with peoples minds with going against the laws of nature by promoting homosexuality?

And do we know that this lady was shot because she was a Democrat or was she shot from a socialist nutcase because she was not liberal enough?

I understand this and it is only the beginning. And again the media will blame Christian Conservatives, get ready for it. Read history and about Hitler, we have seen this before.
Follow? Or should I go on?

ADDITIONAL THOUGHTS FROM MY EMAIL CONTACTS.

Do we know that the assassin is not a communist who was upset that Congresswoman Giffords, who is being described as a 'moderate' or 'Blue Dog' Democrat, was not supporting Obama's communist policies completely enough? Or that he was not a programmed, mind-controlled government agent whose action was designed to further restrict our God-given rights, especially those guaranteed by the First and Second amendments? Or that the powers that be wanted her dead for some unexplained reason? She was reported dead by several networks before a correction was made.

Also, don't call him crazy. His attorneys could use such allegations to avoid the death penalty.

For life and liberty,

Carey - I believe the motive has a 50/50 chance of being either by a socialist who believed she was too moderate and being by someone who was against illegal immigration (which we should be against it) but for all the wrong reasons. Perhaps it was the context in which you used the word "understandable" that confused me. Given all of the criteria that you've listed, it is "understandable" or rather, comprehendable that something like this could happen. When you remove God from the schools, you remove conscience from the schools. I understand that. What I don't find "understandable" is how a 22 year old is arrogant enough to think he has suffered enough that could even remotely warrant shooting a bunch of people in cold blood. Giffords is Pro-2nd Amendment, and she herself owns a 9mm glock which she didn't think she would need to bring to a local gathering. Thanks to this NUTCASE, one of the few democratic allies that the 2nd amendment had is either going to have too much brain damage to be a supporter anymore or will be scared into changing her stance on the 2nd amendment entirely. Stupid people are the reasons why there are warning labels on everything. And dangerous and reckless people are the reasons why politicians think that some liberties must be infringed upon.
I believe in freedom, too, Carey. But all to often, we forget that true freedom is only possible in a moral society, as one of our founders (I forget which one) so eloquently opined. The liberals and socialists are a large part of why morality was purged from the schools, and thereby, freedom. Whether it was a deranged perversion of a conservative or whether it was a fabian socialist, either one should be prosecuted. Unfortunately, AZ no longer has the death penalty, because in this case, I think they should have kept it. I do not believe that this was a random act. I believe there was a definitive purpose and motive, to kill Giffords and to take some of her supporters and/or constituents with her. Maybe some of the people shot weren't even people who voted for her, but instead people who wanted her to listen. I suspect both left and right wingers were killed in this act.

The facts are still coming out but its starting. I do not condone this type of action but I do understand it. People are frustrated and worried about their country, personal freedoms and finances and this type of violence may be the first with more to come. Keep an eye on the reports coming out as I am sure they will spin this as Right Wing Conservative Fanatics spawned by the evil Tea Parties.

Another election and more disappointments.

Hey Gang,
My Sabbatical has ended. I just needed a break. I always need breaks. When you go full steam ahead with so many irons in the fire it wears you down. So I lay low for a bit and reappear.

I know I sound like a broken record but I have at least 4 articles started in my draft folder. I should finish them, even the one about the Euclid Tea Party. It still makes for good reading and is informative.

But right now lets quickly ramble through a few things. Another election and more disappointments. It seems the Tea Parties created a stir but were more like flat pop parties as they fizzled. All our involvement, at least in Ohio, seems to went for naught. Seth Morgan and Sandy O'Brien went down to defeat and so many levies and tax increases passed. I dont understand this.

I discussed this with a friend and we went back and forth. She said it comes down to money to combat the mailers put out by the party. Yes I agree BUT I still don't see how the Tea Party candidates didn't win. I know personally 6 people I swayed to vote for certain candidates and who knows how many other friends and acquaintances I informed that didn't tell me how they voted. Somehow the Tea Party people must not of reached out enough. The crowds were huge at some rally's and just about every town or city had one. Seth Morgan and Sandy O'Brien should of done way better than 35% of the vote they each received. Something went wrong.

As for the tax increases, why do people keep giving their money away? When are we going to hold our elected officials accountable? We have budgets to keep. And quite a few of us right now are barely working and those working full time the raises are coming very slowly if they even come. Elected officials need to do the same. But they won't as long as we keep giving them money. This isn't the end of it, they will be back.

Take Euclid for instance. In the last year, a school levy passed, garbage and light fee's were added, property taxes up, rental fee's up and now a library levy passed. What are people thinking? Sure you may be able to go to the library to take a cookbook out but some of us would just like a meal to cook. Where will this end? You just can't keep raising fee's. It lowers the dollar and obviously people will have less money to spend in the market place where real job creation happens. I have been holding the fort with the rent on my rentals. I don't believe in raising rent on my tenants especially when both are what a landlord dreams of. But somethings got to give.

I still haven't given up though. I am still fighting. I am helping out with at least 3 campaigns, I will be trained on getting the health care petition circulated and the most exciting being on the committee to help the campaigns in Lake County. Soooo if you have ANY issue, for or against something, a question, something you want repealed, something you want passed let me know. I can make sure it gets to the right person. Thats how the American process should work.

The Tea Parties may of failed in getting certain candidates elected BUT they succeeded in their voice being heard. I still have hopes that this election in November can revert the thinking back to sound fiscal and moral thinking. I would even put raising taxes in the realm of morals. All the corruption in Cuyahoga County is a moral issue. Where corruption exists money is squandered and fee's get raised to pay for a bankrupt system.

Getting back to Euclid. Have all the residents in Euclid just given up and want communism so they don't have to vote or participate in the government? Or don't voters educate themselves before voting? How can issues like 26 and 27 pass? Now if you want to pull a petition to remove an official you will need 25% of the previous general election voters instead of 15%. And 27 you now need a "Declaration of Intent" to recall an elected official and only have 45 days to gather signatures. Before there was no declaration needed and no time limit.

Pure insanity. America is voting herself right into full blown socialism.

Lastly Gwen wrote and said she missed my travel stories of the people I meet and fondly remembers the story I wrote of the cat in Texas. Well Gwen dear, I also sadly miss writing about fun times. I miss being out on the road meeting people. I miss my travel lifestyle. Plain and simple I can no longer afford it. It makes me very upset, depressed. And yet when a path is opened to change things back to better times we keep voting for what got us in this mess.

Disturbing!
