Election 2008: Newbies and World Strongmen
Soviet Invasion, a dose of the real world, and the candidates

The Soviet invasion and slaughter in a neighboring country shows we are back to the ceaseless cycle of world conflict and contest.

In the one corner, a small group of nations who want only cooperation and prosperity for the peoples of the world’s nations.

In the other corner, a collection of communist and authoritarian regimes that want domination and control of individual thought and life for their state and religious purposes.

Light vs. dark.

When there are heavyweights in the ring, one does not send in lightweights.

Thinking the foe vanquished, we in the U.S. have frittered, played and wandered through the last couple of decades, while the Soviets[1] have quietly rebuilt. While we have run up debt and sent production capabilities abroad for cheaper trinkets at home, the Soviets have tapped vast resources and made our allies dependent upon them.

While we have been tolerantly overrun by unneeded illegals, bankrupted by Islamic aggressors, and fractured into 50/50 divisions on most subjects, the Soviets have eliminated the free press, crushed opposing political parties, nationalized energy and food production, and methodically gotten their internal authoritarian house in order. They are now ready to expand.

While our Congress and political parties hoodwink us bickering over red hearings, and the news media misleads us with shallow coverage of irrelevant topics, the Soviets have consolidated their power, and along with the Communist government in China[2], made allies through resource acquisition worldwide, many of them our Southern neighbors.

From South America to Africa, countries with raw resources to sell, now have long term contracts and economic dependency with two strong communist customers, which will have all of the obvious effects on their internal politics and international alliances, behavior and voting in the U.N. to which some politicians and candidates would cede certain U.S. rights.

And here we are, all a-flutter about an unknown with a nice manner and broad smile running for office asking why can’t we all just get along, if we just wanted to it would simply happen. And while previous generations of teens and 20-somethings have worked their fingers to the bone, risked their lives, and fought to the death to build this home for us and defend it against tyrants, the present generation is ignorantly electing officials as if they were voting for idol contestants on a make-believe television show.

It is the perfect storm for the social destruction of America and the loss of democracies across the whole face of the globe.

The dark forces and our enemies are rising to threaten our lives.

In times like this one does not send unknowns into the ring. Especially an unknown whose past is an enigma, religion widely unknown and unproven, with no record of concrete results at any level, whose metal has not been publicly tested, and who is not known to the heavyweights.

One does not send in a smiling newbie who the strongmen of the world would have for dinner. An amateur who, not impressing with his own strength, would have to prove it through the cost of our children’s lives.

An amateur whose message has been withdrawal and appeasement, ignorant of strongmen who want control not cooperation.

A newbie for whom the strongmen will not back down, and who will have to use our sons and daughters to prove up the strength that he himself does not exude.

A lightweight’s lack will be made up for by our children, whereas a heavyweight will not need them to prove himself.

In the world ring where strongmen are not cowed by lightweights, it’s the citizens who pay the price.

In times like this one stops playing around, gets serious, gets ones’ house in order, and gets hard to work.

In a tough world in tough times one puts a heavyweight in the ring.

Notes

[1] I regret the loss of the Russian people. They are personally great, with a great deal in common with us, and deserve a better government. As with Venezuela, it just goes to show how quickly democracy and freedom can be subverted to their own ends by those in government wanting to make the people dependent upon them.

[2] I love the Chinese people. They are as beautiful, creative, positive, and productive as we. They deserve all of the prosperity they are finally enjoying. It is sad that they remain saddled with those who want to dictate their personal lives and spread that control abroad.
