Watching the news, hearing the stories, seeing what this government is doing, day in and day out....I just keep wondering...
WHEN IS ENOUGH, ENOUGH?????
i have a very good friend from Venezuela, who is home, visiting her parents this summer. they don’t live in a big city like Caracas, they live in a smaller city in the hinterlands. she knows what Chavez is doing there, she emailed me yesterday to say he’d closed 34 radio stations over the weekend. there was a directive signed a few weeks back, saying children over 3 were to be turned over to some state-run grupo infantil.She said Chavez SAID he was going to do all of this stuff prior to his election, but no one believed him, thought he was CRAZY, but he is doing it. all of it. she sees everyone living the daily life as always, she said if you don’t know what’s going on with chavez and just look at the people going about their daily lives, you’d never know. so now i realize, America is at an earlier stage, but it’s the same thing. people want to burrow down into the familiarity of daily life, the daily routine and block out the unpleasantness of what their gov’t is doing to them. i just pray to God that Americans are of sterner stock and that someone can WAKE THEM UP before it’s too late.
