Good Morning Friends,

today is Wednesday March 24, 2010

Back on the job today friends, so wish me luck. It is kind of fun just working part time you know, sort of like a little vacation if you know what I mean. Not sure what the weather is supposed to be like either. We shall see what we shall see of course.

Hope you are all paying attention to world events and that kind of thing. Nothing really changes does it? Really, I mean. The world is still in a financial funk because of the banksters on Wall Street and the wars go on in the Middle East. The U.S. is on the road to bankruptcy, or is already there and nobody seems to really care. Obama gets his health care plan and he gains a little bit of political legitimacy in the process. But, there is so much more that has to be done and one wonders if he has the time or the political clout to accomplish all of the things that need to be accomplished. If you want to know what my agenda would be as president it is simply this. I would have started on the road to restoring the good name of America right off the bat. There is no reason for the illegal wars in the Middle East and I would have done something about that immediately. I mean, is the Military Industrial Complex so strong that they can frustrate the will of the people? Well, actually the answer is yes. If they were not there would be no more spending going on for these wars. I think Obama should have called the brass in the military in for a little talk and told them the score. And, that score is that the wars are wrong, they are killing innocent people; they are causing the downfall of America; they are ruining the economy and they are totally unnecessary. Simple right? Well, not exactly. If it was simple it would have been done already. But that is what I would have done anyway. And, what about Israel and its ambitions in the region? A tough one right? Not really. It would be easy to set Israel straight and make it bargain with its neighbours and achieve some kind of peace in the region. The only problem is of course the political problems back home related to trying to do the right thing. That's right, you have the lobbyists and the influential men associated with them. So, things are not as easy as they would seem. Obama is not stupid and knows that he cannot create too many waves too soon. He knows what happens to presidents who ' step out of line '. But, I think Obama could still have been nipping away at his so-called change. Make some dents and make some waves. Let them know who is boss and what is more important. The country is more important than any interest group. And, that includes the very influential and destructive banksters as well. He needs to make that point though and that is what I would have done right off the bat. Make a presence and establish yourself as someone who truly believes in change. Take on the political interest groups. You just might be amazed how the people will fall in line and respect you for doing the right thing.
