American’s are stupid people, and it seems as though we are being taken advantage of by our government because of our simple mindedness.

At a time when our country is actively engaged in two wars, an invasion across the southern border, a failing economy caused by government intervention, and manipulation, an ecology disaster in the Gulf of Mexico, bandits acting as legitimate legislators, and a feckless and corrupt judiciary, what makes the front pages of the news?

BOSTON — In a private meeting with White House officials this weekend, Democratic governors voiced deep anxiety about the Obama administration’s suit against Arizona’s new immigration law, worrying that it could cost a vulnerable Democratic Party in the fall elections.

While the weak economy dominated the official agenda at the summer meeting here of the National Governors Association, concern over immigration policy pervaded the closed-door session between Democratic governors and White House officials and simmered throughout the three-day event.

With the recent slew of articles I have sent out lately, one may be asking themselves how I find the time to do all this writing. Normally I wouldn’t, but for two weeks my place of employment has shut down for two weeks while it undergoes annual upgrades to the equipment. Being one who does not watch that much television, I am stuck with little else to do but yard work and think of things to write about.

My recent writings may have been a bit harsh towards the Tea Party movement, but

I was frankly surprised when Barack Obama was elected President in 2008. I thought his self-identification as a black American would tip the scales to John McCain in a nation that has had a long history of racial enmity towards blacks.

None of this is new. Race was a factor in American life in pre-Revolutionary days and slavery had to be papered over even in the writing of the Constitution. It took a Civil War to get amendments to end slavery and ensure the rights of citizenship were extended to blacks. It took another hundred years to make it real.

For many years people around the world have marveled at how the United States has been so innovative and creative using good old fashioned common sense to solve knotty problems and find solutions to overcome bureaucratic hurdles.

In essence, it has greatly helped this country become number one in just about any phase of life, or commerce. We truly were the greatest country in the world.

But in recent years,

The world countries are competing with each other in imposing new financial sanctions against Iran. While the Iranian people still hasn’t forgotten the bitter memory of 8-year war with the Baathist Iraq which was masterminded and fostered by the United States and its European allies, new rounds of crippling sanctions directed against the most strategic industries of Iran come after one another in what is claimed to be the international movement of preventing Tehran from acquiring nuclear weapons.

Every time the President speaks, makes another appointment, or ramrods a new bill through the democratically controlled congress, he reinforces what millions of Americans now feel; this President does not love America.

With Arizonans cringing in fear even hundreds of miles from the border from the aftermath of brutally murdered ranchers and border police, we might expect any other President to spring into action.
