Are you not disturbed that someone running for president of the USA expresses no interest in peace in the middle east?
Are you not deeply disturbed by that?
I do not think more than a few people even remotely understand the dynamics of the area. I do not think anyone running for president knows what to do about the matter. I understand the public is so misinformed they cannot make a secure judgment call themselves on what to do. I am certain the voters have to choose between the lesser of two evils. It bothers me many people in the US vote for what will be best for themselves instead of the big picture. I am alarmed how many people have their hand in the cookie jar. I am surprised there are not more public gatherings to show their disgrace. I know without the shadow of doubt even the people here could not come close to agreeing on what needs to be done here, let alone in the world. It bothers me. Is it not obvious?
There "may" be a handful of people making decisions, but they do not even care about the true outcome and lack vision of the future based on their decisions. Democracy is not for everyone, but what is going on in the Middle East has a lot to do with the blowback from the Ottoman Empire and World War I decisions. The Ottoman Turks ruled with a firm fist, as did many rulers in that area and Africa. Sometimes people allow their muscle to outweigh their heart or mind to keep control over the crowds. There is nobody stepping up to serve the world with a better idea in the area that is not killed. The world is spinning out of control due to the absence of brilliance in leadership.
Assad massacred tens of thousands in Hama years ago. Now his son is stepping in his footsteps. I am more concerned with what will happen to those that do not agree with him than anything else over there right now. It is because of the timing and dire straits they are in. I would rather live with a gun than sit and watch as my countrymen are killed, so I naturally understand how the opposition feels.
I guess I am saying I understand the things you say more than I want to admit, though I do not agree with it all. I would rather see Romney try four years than watch an instant replay of the last four. Whether either one of them actually run this country or care bothers my human dignity more than you might realize. Voting makes me feel free, but tax time brings me back to some sort of reality. Tax my land, my house, my inventory, my business, my sales,
my trucks, my car, my boats, my gas I buy, the food I buy, and watch as politicians spend tens of millions to get elected to a job that just doesn't do the math. Let them start helping by refusing their retirement benefits. People served this country as an honor with no pay when it was started.
