Congress and the President

The mentality of Washington D.C. in 2011 has been that of the spoiled brats that would rather whine and stamp their feet to get exactly what they want and how they want it regardless of who they have to stomp on to get it.

Some individuals may even go so far as equating the politicians to what the politically incorrect people would say is them being on the "rag" so to speak with how they how closely some politicians resemble the mood of a lady who is menstrating heavily.

Congress especially the Republicans have tended to act the ways I have mention but the President has also fed into the mentality by to some degree acting the same way but then backing down as if he is all talk rather than the man of action that he passed himself off as while he was running for the office.

The way Congress and the President have been acting is demeaning and it belittles the struggles of everyone but the super rich in America which has left the general public demoralized to the point that people are starting to get fed up with the pissing contest and it has shown in the polls that the general public is of the opinion that the politicians are not doing the jobs that they were elected to do.

If it were a corporation we the people of the United States would have little to worry about aside from those in the corporation were directly affected by the the decisions.  Unfortunately the country cannot be treated like corporation that can dispense with things that it feels that it can live without and the mentality the politicians have right now is causing problems for millions of people financially and emotionally and the financial problems that they are causing for people are pushed onto the businesses who have felt pressured to reduce their spending due to a lack of want or need of the products they supply due to their customers not having the money to continue buying from them.

Remembrance

Remembrance


We cannot let ourselves forget the lives that were lost on that fateful day. Our way of life was changed that day when almost three thousand people died. We need to memorialize those that were lost on that day to help ease the pain of the great loss of innocent life.

We also need to honor those who we regard as heroes that died who if were able to talk would say that they were simply doing their job like they have done like any other day. They need to be honored in ways that reflect our desire not to let them have died in vane.

Those that were lost, their names forever will be whispered on the winds and will not have died in vane as long as we do fear those who would want to scare us into cowering by attacking us from the shadows.

Those who ran in to save people and paid the ultimate price need to be revered by making sure that everyone knows that a great many more people could have and would have died if it wasn't for the first responders.

Where there were hundreds of people from all over the world in the towers when they came down that day, it is not just an American tragedy, it is a world tragedy where many died thousands of miles away from their families and the places they called home with their families not being able to do anything to find their loved ones or to help those people that their loved ones called friends and today may still not have closure.

The last tragedy that the U.S. has had to deal with anywhere close to this magnitude is Pearl Harbor which brought WWII home for us and both events will forever live in infamy.

Like when John F. Kennedy was shot the one question that will be asked of those who were alive when the towers fell will be where were you when it happened.

With all the questions that have been asked the one that stays with me is the one my niece who turned seven that day which was "Why did those bad people kill all those people on my birthday?"
