some ironic television tonight. after my daughter fell asleep, i began watching the last hour of the republican debate on cnn. they were being asked youtube questions, mostly by young idealistic college age kids. the reason i state it as such, is because none of there questions got to the nitty gritty. sure they asked some heavy questions about iraq, abortion, gay/lesbian issues, but none really reached out for the middle class, the questions you and i want answers to.
questions like when are you going to s&*t or get off the pot regarding iraq. yeah not all of us agree about the invasions validity, but know we are in it and it has to dealt with and fast. you either go in guns a blazing and level the place and put the fear of god into the region, or you just say, that is it, enough of this tit for tat, and leave. those are the two choices.
no one asked, why is it that there are less local merchants staying in business, and less consumer goods manufactured in the USA for our purchasing. why is it that all goods we wear or use are made in in china, pakistan, or bangladesh, and that the only retailers showing a profit are the wal-marts??? where did our choices go ????
who cares if one is a mormon, one has been married three times, one is pro-life, one is pro-choice, and one is a character actor. i think cnn cheated the public by only presenting these sensationalized general questions by the "youth" of america. next time use the questioned submitted by those who have to support those kids.
now the irony.
when the first commercial break came on , i surfed and found the movie "kingdom of heaven" which is about the crusaders and saracens fight over jerusalem. the crusaders had there internal treachery and disputes, the saracens, a united force under saladin.
guess the time they aint "a changing". sorry bob.
