The reason I ask is simple: the truth is often mistaken as something too complicated for the masses to understand. Better left to 'wise latinas', in other words.
An example: Suppose you buy a truck from me but aren't thrilled with the tires, and I agree to replace any tire that fails after a hundred miles. You come back after fifty miles with a flat but my lawyer hears of this and decides to take it to the Supreme Court where everything from how you drive to what you were driving on comes into question- even though we had an agreement.
This is where we (The People) are with our government- they simply are not honoring 'the agreement' and we find ourselves, today, being led by one of the biggest liars ever elected to President. An educated liar. He can agree to anything, yet when he fails to uphold his part, he can tell you to get lost.
As a fervent supporter of the 2nd ammendment, it sickens me to think that almost half of the judges on the Supreme Court would ban guns altogether if they could. And these are scholarly people with degrees to prove it. Their problem is that a very simple truth stares them in the face and they refuse to/can't see it.
In Mrs. Palin's world, I would have bought you a replacement tire yesterday because I said I would. It's refreshing to have someone in public who isn't afraid to stand for truth rather than lie and obfuscate what is otherwise very straight forward.
On national security, on the economy, and on energy in particular, her vision of what would be good for America rings true to me. I resent being lied to about wind, solar, and Green energy in general, or being told we're in a recovery with 10+% unemployed, and that shutting down oil rigs in the gulf for six months helps us how?
Sarah may seem too simple for those with a palate accustomed to the varied and complex politicians we've been so fortunate to sample over the years. What's coming from the White House these days resembles vinegar more than a fine zinfandel. If we're lucky, by 2012 we'll all be riding in the back of a pickup truck heading out of Oklahoma in Grapes of Wrath II. If not, we'll be hitch-hiking.
My tagline is about my own dream and effort -to reach the the light that only God can shine upon us.
As farr reaching knowledge of the facts upon this Earth - well, that’s for strivers after them, as well. Knowledge and the ability to achieve it is not limited, irregardless of their educational pedigree, age, belief system, or gender, anymore than reaching the Light is.
I believe that anyone, whether in the “masses” or the “elite” can constantly increase their knowledge. The human mind, as we are discovering, is capable of remarkable regrowth and even regeneration. Not even biology, which can place limits on our age, strength and health, can limit the ability of our brains to grow, develop and change.
I also firmly believe that all of us can have a better understanding of the outlooks and experiences of others, if we sincerely attempt to listen and consider. We may, of course, decide that there are some people beyond the pale to develop empathy for, and I believe that there are those who have sunk so low that we don’t *want* to see theings through their point of view.
But ultimately God sees inside the mysteries of all human hearts. If, by some blessing, we are finally able to rejoin him in infinity, perhaps them we will all be blessed with both His wisdom and His knowledge.
Until then,, I just keep striving.
So it’s not really a tagline about politics - except as politics is a part of the world.
