We are caught between a Quagmire and a Cold War. Only this time, it may not be so Cold. This news is just about as bad as it gets with an overstretched military and everything DOWN at home except the Stock Market and all of this NSA stuff as Joan diared is not helping.
We have Snowden in Russia. We have Russia siding with Syria.
We have Syria threatning Israel and Iran backing Syria along with Russia. We have troops in the middle east and Troops on re deployments in Afghinstan and Veterans on backlog here at home.
Now we are approaching September 11th with no love from any International communities and Climate Change heating up the west and flooding the east most of the time. The entire country divided and drawing lines in the sand between Republicans, teahats, liberal and democrats. We are basically split four ways. On this soil there is a War on Drugs, a War on Women, An all out assault on civil rights, no jobs, no cooperation with legislators, and people mad as Hell. Do I have all of this summation just about right? The educational system is failing, the bridges and roads ae falling, healthcare opposed and here we are stuck in the middle of all this.
Sixty percent of the country are NOT in favor of intervention in Syria. So if we do nothing, what happens? Dick Cheney and 40 percent of Americans get angry. What did those ears pick up at the NSA that makes us rush off to war because we are certainly not in any financial or moral position to do that. Will this mean the draft being reinstated? Does this mean what ? I really want to know because I am past angry and it is getting to the point we have way too much on our plate.
I am sure our President is concerned about being perceived as weak if nothing is done but Mr. President why haven't troops been brought home before now? Why in the world have people not been prosecuted for tearing down the economy and stealing homes.
We knew we were just one disaster away from certain ruin. So we might as well hunker down and face the fact.. WE ARE GOING TO WAR...AGAIN because there is no such thing as a little pregnant or quick mission. I honestly feel like I am in a time machine stuck in neutral...or slowly moving backwards in time. Is it just me or do you feel the same? If this is hyperbole then talk me down because I feel really sick about ALL OF THIS! From the dismantling of the voting rights act, to the racial inequality, to the poverty, to the spying, to the fall of the middle class to the war on women and
The endless wars, to the struggle to just get me and people like me through the month. We are all stressed too much..Why don't the bubble people understand this? You know the wealthy who walk among us and never sacrafice anything?
Could this actually turn into WWIII?
