It is tragic to see the current list of candidates running for office. They do not represent us, they represent their special interests. The current flap over remarks made by Obama at a private fundraiser shows just how ridiculously out of touch all the candidates are. Here is part of what he said:

“You go into some of these small towns in Pennsylvania, and like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing’s replaced them, and it’s not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations,”

Of course Clinton and McCain jumped on him by calling him elitist and out of touch. LOL. That is the pot calling the kettle black, no pun intended. Obama was partially correct, the American middle class is getting bitter, but the reason is because of corporate and government corruption that threatens to destroy our country as we know it.

All three candidates think the government can fix the problems with our economy. It seems that 90% of the American people think so too. Because 90% of my fellow American are apparently brainwashed and blinded by ignorance they either don’t care or think that the government can help them. Well here is the truth. The government, corporate America and the Federal Reserve all are responsible for getting us into this economic mess. Translated, the rich have been getting richer at the expense of the American middle class. Clinton, McCain and Obama, as well as 95% of all Washington politicians and 100% of the media, fall into the rich class.

They want us to live in fear. Fear of terrorism, fear of disease, fear of death and fear of just living as Americans. The politicians and the media want us to be dependent on them. If we are to survive we must get back to the idea that we control the government, not the rich. The ruling class in this country needs to be ended. We have to start standing up for each other and our nation again. Protect the innocent and punish the guilty. We have to take back our government soon or we will lose it forever and never get it back.

Tampa’s Back Door Ways has a great article about the candidates entitled The Big Picture. Check it out HERE.

    Not surprising that they get bitter. Just made enemies with HALF the population.. .. women are not to be referred to as bitter, obama. LOL.
    Mark, this is an excellent outtake on this matter. It’s stunning and SICKENING that this TRIO is the pick. Or so we’re sold down the river.
    I am richly complimented that you added ME to YOUR excellent writing.
    Doesn’t matter whether we see eye to eye. When we roll our eyes over each others’ crazy beliefs at least we KNOW we’re really on the same side.
    I am continually amazed at how many things we agree on.
    How’s the radio show going??

    You are right we are on the same side. I would fight and die for you and I know you would do the same for me. You are a brave warrior in the fight to retake our government. I am honored you read my blog and would really like to interview you on my show.

    Peace
