When our Government goes after us.

I just turned 55 last month. Pretty good long time on this planet. And since I have been paying attention, about the last 28 or so years, I have never seen our government go after us like it is these days.

It is an American tradition to voice our freedom of speech loudly throughout history. We are proud to be able to. We fought to have the right. And mostly our government recognizes that.

Lately though you have to watch it if you say what you think. Especially if its the truth. The government will come after you. Stomping on your right to free speech. Remember Joe the plumber? I could not believe the way our government went after him for saying what he believed in. From the media to the IRS they did their best to drag his name through the mud.

Then Sarah Palin. Rarely have I see such a smear campaign of such huge proportion. I just want to know. Where were those pink ladies and NOW when they were shredding her to ribbons. Here we have a smart classy lady. One us women should be proud to call one of our own. Made her way to the top and our government spared no expense to soil her name. Maybe this is where some of our missing bailout money went.

Then we had the tea party citizens. After reading this joke of a health care plan the government is trying to shove down our throats, informed citizens came out in droves to voice our freedom of speech. Next thing you know our government has a 1- 800 turn in your neighbor number. Can you believe it! Then what? What was the implementation of that? To me it implied past visions of horrors in this world we should all vow not to let ever happen again.

Since they, ( our government) control most of the media now, hummmm, more missing bailout money perhaps, we became the mob. Crazy terrible people. Well, I went to several of them. They didn't seem at all crazy to me. They did seem angry though. I am also, mad as hell and you know I don't swear very often.

They did their best, still working on it, to go after Rush. Really after anyone who isn't completely behind their agenda. Which according to the polls is most of us these days. And the latest is Fox news.

Oh yes, Fox news. Crazy right wing nut jobs who only report the most slanted outrageous lies about our beloved leader and his socialist appointees. And who does the white house put in charge of watching over this terrible network? Anita Dunn. The same Anita Dunn who says her idol, the person she most admires is Mao Tse Tung! Her favorite political philosopher.



Pretty scary. He was responsible for thousands of deaths. Why is it so many people Obama has named as his czars are armpit deep in Marxist beliefs. Their hero's are Che, Castro, and Mao. They are doing their best to rid the world of Fox news. And any station they can't control the content of.

Personally, Rush, I would be proud to wear a shirt saying I was sponsored by you. Glenn Beck, I also think this is the scariest time I have ever lived though. Joe, you can fix my plumbing anytime. Sarah, you got my vote. And I like the mob I am hanging around with. We have our sight firmly fixed to the future, and what it will be like if we lose this voice. And that is very scary.

The White House doesn't like news unless it's served up the way they like it. Fox News has more viewers than CNN and the other two cable news programs combined. I'd say that's a majority!
