A CHANGE WE WANT THAN WHAT WE GOT!

Dear Friend,

Like you, I receive a great many emails -- many times just spam. Those I receive from the wonderful members of MY VIEW are always on target regarding the damage Obama has already done to our wonderful country, and appears ready to do in the future. His agenda spells doom for the United States of America. Already there are rats coming from out of the shadows of their spots in Congress to join up with or to do what they know will please Obama's cause. I can only think of them as traitors.

The attempts to stop him were not strong enough. They were not strong enough to stop the maelstrom in which we find ourselves. This man appears to have some sort of aura about him that leans in the direction of evil. It is subtle and hidden. I doubt that even he knows that he has it. It was quite evident in the days and months before his nomination; it was present during the campaign; and it is present now that he has taken the seat in the Oval Office. Nothing seems to have an effect on him and what he is doing. He controlled the media it appeared, though they would deny it.

A good many patriots are doing what they can to draw attention to his danger; however, there appears to be barriers of sorts that either deny the attempts a chance to begin, or weakens the attempts so much that they are all the same as having not begun. I don't know how many WebPages have been created opposing him, telling of the danger he poses; however, they appear not to be able to join into one huge group under one leader or a committee of leaders.

So many of us who are of World War Two vintage, Korean Conflict agony, the painful Vietnam Era are put in the position of not having the energy to go directly to Congress, meet with our representative and try to get some response from them. We are with desire, but without energy. I'm 87 years old, have the infirmities of old age (congestive heart disease, spinal stenosis and probably some conditions not found on examination. I'm tired!) My love for my country burns strong, though, and I will do all I can to bring her back to where she belongs -- the greatest, most respected country in the world. We are the model, or at least we were for other countries to follow. Just think of the many times we have been called on to help another country. And, after losing precious American lives in combat, or bringing home the wounded and injured to spend the rest of their lives incomplete in ability and strength, we are readily called upon again. Is this why we are hated? Is it because we can and do and they can't that makes them this way?

I know of these brave, heroic soldiers. I worked with them, cried with them, rejoiced with them at their first accomplishment after months of painful effort to gain back even an iota of what they had. I knew their families, their wives, husbands, children, brothers and sisters. My team went to bat for them to assure they got all they deserved (if such a repayment can be made.) I am one of them.

So when I see what a certain man and his traitorous cronies are doing to them who served and their families, those who now are the non-combatant citizens, but are the backbone of this country, I get very angry. I want to do things to those who are the problem, bad things; however, that is not my way, and I know it is not the way of all those patriots who think as I. We want an end to the acts against those who won the freedom and liberty for all of us. We don't want a change of the kind this man wants and so often called for. We want the laws of the land enforced (that would be a change.) We want the Constitution protected and not picked apart by harpies who are so weak in character and who have such hateful thoughts in their minds that they are blind to the harm they are doing to the one country who has given so much to so many. What, pray tell, is so wrong with this country that can't be changed by simply asking those who are charged to represent us, do so? And enforce the laws that are already written and are Constitutional? And ask the States to take back their sovereignty? And lessen the size of government?

If we (the United States) are so bad, and are so terrible to be as a part of the world, why is it that so many have illegally come to this country? They broke the laws to come here -- suffering their own agony just to have a chance to say they are in the United States -- even if it means hiding in the dark of secrecy, lying, cheating -- breaking their promise to their God not to do anything immoral. There are close to 15 million illegal aliens who have broken their vows to their God, not to lie, cheat or steal. They can't confess enough to cleanse their souls. Why do so many come seeking sanctity?

I am angry with Congress. I am angry with the United States Supreme Court. I am angry with the ineligible person who sits in the Oval Office as if he belonged there. There is an inadequacy that occupies their actions. They don't appear to be interested in the mother country -- only interested in self.
Non Sibi, Sed Deo, Patriae et Familia: "Not for Self, but for God, Country, Family!" doesn't describe them.

I wonder whether there is justice of the size needed to cover the sins of our representatives? Are they aware of why they are there? Or does a murky fog enfold them from a distance? where the 545 members sit together in large and small groups to pass laws for the "common citizen" to follow, since it is a consensus of the 545? I wonder. Why are they there? Does the one who occupies the honored place have a better way of governing? Has he really learned from the past unsuccessful attempts to do as he plans to do? Does he know of a formula that will void the failures? I doubt it. He is just as ignorant as those who follow him thinking he is the answer to "the wrong way" to govern a country as wonderful as ours is. Does anyone know the answers to the questions I raise and for which I seek answers? What say you who are wiser than I?
