Am I free from bias? No. I am just tired of hearing all the bickering and he said she said. I am tired of the destructive negative campaigning if only that much energy could be put into finding viable solutions to the current problems in the country we would be a lighthouse for the world.

Excellence should be expected from all citizens and residents in this country. It is in being excellent that we can be proud of what we accomplish. We would not need to blame shift but would be accountable for our actions.

It is time to change the culture of America from the current it is my right to get, get, get to what can I give, how can I improve the lives of my family, my community and my country.

Reality Check – Freedom should never be seperated from responsibility. People come first not profit!!! Greed always robs honor and dignity and causes harm to everyone

Well I thought the VP debate was interesting to watch. I made the comment to my wife that it sometimes feels like I am sitting in a Job Interview. Oh wait isn’t that what it is supposed to be?

Actually my comment is not really directed towards the debate but more to the media spin filter. I like the fact that the debate is contested without commentary from the so called experts. I am totally disgusted at the lack of partiality shown by the major broadcasters particularly ABC. Frankly I find it pompous and arrogant of them, the way they phrase questions in a way that casts doubt over Palin and exemplifies the strengths of Biden. The way they filter information in their commentaries is so blatently obvious. If they were truley classy reporters they would report the facts, free from their interpretation based upon their predisposed paradigms and world views.

Ok case in point Catie’s first comments were, “Well everyone was waiting to see how the political newcomer would do tonight and perhaps the headline is governer Sarah Palin did not embarrass herself or her running mate as some Republicans might have feared and some Democrates might have hoped.”

Reality Check -

1. Political Newcomer – Well maybe it is just me or maybe Alaska too but one does not get to become governor and be a Political Newcomer.

2. Did not embarrass herself – Ok why the negative expectation. Her History seems very good. I think it would be nice if they would treat the political candidates with the same level of enthusiasm and respect.

3. some Republicans might have feared and some Democrates might have hoped – I am not even going to comment on this.
P.S – Ironic the way the media all tout Bidens’ history of working in Washington and yet the big call of the democratic party is Change. Ironic how the newface in Washington who has an actual record of leadership and who wants to bring change is called inexperienced and a potential embarressment.

Let me make it clear. I wanted to put his link up on my website to be fair to you all just to have a look at what he says. It is the first time I went to his website and the first page I was greeted with was a donate now page. Ok to me that speaks volumes about the policies of the party and the man. The first thing I am greeted with is a request for a handout. Wow. Do not tell me anything about your cause just go for my money.

I honor the man as a leader but i do not agree with his policies.

At what point did we turn this beautiful country into a socialist state. Socialist states have never worked. Take Zimbabwe for example. Highest inflation on record, Mass unemployment, corruption and nepotism. All of these are the consequences of a government who felt they could do better than the people and now it abuses the people. What once was the breadbasket of Africa is now the basket case of Africa.

It is time to stop punishing people who succeed by increasing taxes. Encourage responsible spending by the wealthy. That will create jobs and give men and women the opportunity to work and be proud of providing for their families and doing something with excellence. Excellence should be rewarded. With reward comes responsibility.

Its also time to stop profiteering by big business. I am not opposed to making a profit but there is something wrong when companies make billions in profits year after year and the average person is put in a place of struggling just to survive. Greed should never be tolerated. Maybe companies that make over a certain percentage in yearly profit should be forced to reinvest that profit back into the communities. Hey how about a reduction in prices sometime? Granted I am shooting from the hip right now but cant we get more creative at providing solutions for families so that they too can succeed and not have the hard working folk slave away while guys at the top get a practical free ride and act like demigods.

Reality check – Socialist States do not work. What costs you nothing means nothing. What you have invested nothing of yourself you will not look after and ensure its success.
