Common Sense

Somebody's got to wake me up!

I was watching Meet The Press as David Gregory was trying to get Newt Gingrich to follow his lead question to a point which was meant to obscure the true debate in this country. This was obvious to Newt and he called Gregory on it. Finally! A champion that will challenge the media, the administration and kick their a.. 'behind'!

After the exchange, Gregory brought on Eric Cantor to grease the skids for Mitt and I couldn't stand it anymore. I'm so tired of the Media directing my thought processes with people who are ALL on the take...yes...ALL. Everyone has something to gain by the election of their candidate. So, what else is new, right?

People, this is the point we are overlooking in every part of our lives! We are being rounded up and led by a Media and a Government that want nothing but power and money. This is no great surprise, so why do we listen to the people with the microphone and the checkbook? Why are we being led by the media campaign with the most money, or the most clever jab at his opponent?

In my disgust for the main Media and the obvious GOP Insider slant, I took refuge in the Military History Channel. (This is my standby channel to level myself as I look at what Patriotic Americans have sacrificed for us.)  MHC was on the Revolution series and discussing Thomas Paine's Common Sense. I realized this is what we have surrendered to the Political Correctness of the day.

Please read thoughtfully...a couple of excerpts from the Introduction. "Perhaps the sentiments contained in the following pages, are not YET sufficiently fashionable to procure them general favor; a long habit of not thinking a thing WRONG, gives it a superficial appearance of being RIGHT, and raises at first a formidable outcry in defense of custom. But the tumult soon subsides. Time makes more converts than reason." Paine states he was "unconnected with any Party, and under no sort of influence -public or private- but the influence of reason and principal."

I wish we could all say this. What we see are two ends pulling against the middle. The 'have nots' are trying to get theirs and the 'have a lots' are giving it to them from overpowering the middle. Question. Are we concerned where Romney gets the money to slay his opponents with Media Blitzes? To whom does he owe favors? We know that the wealthiest people rule and that "absolute power corrupts, absolutely." Why do we keep allowing the media to tell us who is ELECTABLE? Remember, the Establishment did not elect Ronald Reagan, the People did!

Many people have become wealthy with hard work and long hours, but many people became wealthy by gaming the system, knowing the right people, being there at the right time, being beautiful, being talented, making a quick score, or simply playing the game so perfectly that the "rules" are always favoring THEIR position. They MAKE the rules and it simply takes money to make money. Why are we selling out now? Can't we send someone to Washington to level the field? No...the only one who can beat Obama is the one the Establishment says can win. What? Who says? How about WE SAY like we did in 80! Why is Newt unpopular? He rebelled against the Establishment in the Nineties and they don't want to deal with him again. He can't be bought and sold! That's why they want him out. Who does Romney owe and how much?

Watch the Meet The Press segment again. The Main Media doesn't want Newt to be all over the microphone like he was today. If he is the candidate, and with thanks to Corzi, Arpao, and WND, Obama will be watching the the Presidential Election from Africa on Aljazeera.

Please pass this on to as many people as you know in the Super Tuesday states. They can turn this around if enough of them use Common Sense.

Maybe Floyd Brown will post the NBC segment for everyone to see. If so you'll find it on WesternJournalism.com.

I hope some one is feeling patriotic...the country needs it.
