Hello from the deep south.
Yes, I am still alive and kicking in the fair state of Alabama. Wait did I just
feel a collective shiver, well yep I'm here, and yes Alabama has turned back
the clock to oh about 1950 something.
Our private family joke "Alabama would be so great, if it weren't for the people.
Akkkk!
So I just invested a 100 bucks on this site. Probably the best money I have spent
in a long while. I have the DNC calling, The Obama for America, or what ever hell
they call themselves.
"Money please they all exclaim!" to no avail. I am always not sorry to tell them
my opinion on every subject I can bring up, and then of course let them know not
a penny can be spared for the lowly democrats clawing their way to the top.
And President Obama, well I think he has plenty of money to run, plus
what about all the free time he garners for every "speech-fundraiser" on all
the whorish media outlets, and the list could go on and on.
But the real reason I bother to write this humble diary is to say, my 100 dollars
to this site is one of the best investments I have made in years. Even if I don't
write another diary, or read another diary, or even come here at all, I know you
are all giving your hearts, time, knowledge, bodies, money, to the TRUTH.
Simply that, the hard pursuit of the truth, bad or good. Sometimes it feels like
the world is sitting on a house of cards, I feel like Kos is the table, sturdy and
strong.
I will leave you with a little story of something that happened to me recently,
funny and sad, and of course good for the country.
One evening I get a call from some guy, his first words are, "I am calling from
the RNC and know you want a Republican in the White House in 2012."
I think this is a joke, "Your kidding me right?"
"No, I am calling from the RNC and can just tell you want Obama out
of the White House in 2012.
I respond with, "You got anyone better?"
Very long pause, I wait with baited breath.
"No." is the quiet response.
Well, that's all they got, so it was amusing. And the conversation went on
a bit further, with me claiming Gary Johnson was going to win New Hampshire.
At this point he claims Romney has New Hampshire sewed up, Really!!!
Then he wants to know if I want to throw some money on Romney. NO!
Well, I wandered a bit as is my nature, but go go go Kos, write, blog, advocate,
help each other, get in pie wars, it's all good, all the time.
We all need a little truth every now and then.
