2012 POLITICAL CROSSROADS: An Editorial

Over the past three years we have seen our country wrecked with high unemployment, out-of-control spending, families losing their jobs and houses, and little hope for our future generations. There is plenty of blame to go around, certainly George W. Bush’s Administration has to shoulder some responsibility but Barack Obama has been President for three years and he owns this sinking ship. He has failed as President and he knows it, but true to his inherent lack of character he points the finger at everyone and everything else but himself. Barack Obama is an interesting study of the psyche of the human being. I do not claim to know him as a person but I have seen that personality in the past while I attended CUNY-City College of New York in Harlem, as a medical resident in Boston City Hospital in Roxbury, Massachusetts, and worked for three years at Misericordia Hospital right in the center of West Philadelphia. Oh did I learn to spot that leopard…Barack Obama is the typical chimera made up of the worst of all its parts. He has presided over a dysfunctional Washington and has taken our country on a path of destruction and class warfare not seen since the days of the Kingfish. He has been unable to make tough decisions and implement them. Oh yes, he said that he killed Osama Bin Laden and decapitated Al Qaeda: he deserves some but not all the credit.
America is on the wrong path, everybody knows it and the polls show it. We cannot trust this individual anymore; he is like the scorpion that killed the frog while the frog was carrying it on its back helping him cross the river. Just like the frog asked the scorpion “why did you killed me? Now both of us are going to die?” The scorpion replied “it is my nature”. America, we cannot carry this scorpion on our backs any longer because it is his nature to kill us with more taxes and more spending…and more lies and more “blame someone else but me” and more class warfare. His theme was never “hope and change”…it was always “divide and conquer”, we just did not see it. This chimera has a little of Reverend Wright, a little of Bill Ayers, a little of Karl Marx, a little of George W. Bush, a little of Leon Trotsky and lots of Manuel Noriega.
In 2012 we must vote for someone with the following traits: Electability, character, leadership and a conservative philosophy. America is not a liberal country; we have respect for laws, celebrate everybody’s right to pursue happiness and the ideals to improve one-self and lift one’s family to a better future. We respect the right of people to have their privacy and to enjoy the fruits of their labor. I plan to vote for Mitt Romney. He may not be perfect, none of us are. He may not be a gifted orator like Satan while tempting Jesus in the wilderness, but Romney is able to communicate his thoughts and his ideas with simplicity and humility. He is not George W. Bush and certainly he is not Reaganesque, but in these times he offers a steady hand and the promise of better times after a decade of upheaval, self-doubt and economic ruin for our country. I plan to vote for Romney with the hope that he will be a good President because the certainty of having the worst President in history for four more years will be demoralizing and psychologically devastating for all Americans. We do not need four more years of this pedantic Kingfish.
