Hi,
It's the late 1970's again. A questionable foreign policy and economic
policy to pay for it taking it's toll. We are in recession and
stagflation. In addition, we need to ask foreign countries, with their
soverign fund investments, to be nice to us and not to impose their
foreign policies on us (Wall Street Journal this week). So, put the
platform shoes and listen to disco again.
It is too bad that the political process is a such that someone like
Ronald Reagan cannot run, and that the primary process prevents
someone from Reagan from running. Remember, Reagan was at one time a
democrat who switched parties when he felt they went astray, which is
the proper thing anyone would do. Also, he was always known to to play
good roles in movies (at home, we watched an old picture of his about
Knute Rockne of Notre Dame -- actually it showed good values) (but the
first impluse was because my parent's knew it was a ronald reagan
picture).
The reason why we are back in the 1970's is that this instead of the
hippies going too far, the religious right went too far in explaining
the Iraq war as a religious war. It is not, and should not have been
portrayed that way. Pres Bush, Senators, and Congressman of the
religious right should have objected strongly to this. But, they
didn't and Al-Queda happily saw it's world wide recruitment go up
because they could convince people that this was a second crusade, and
we are not paying the price in people killed and in our economy.
Thanks, religious right.
(To correct the religious right in their new churches, the Bible does
not promise you riches or money for believing, only the Devil provides
money and riches for those who convert to him. Get your reading
straight).
Let us hope we can return the United States of American again in 2009,
WHERE CHURCH AND STATE ARE SEPARATE AND AT ARMS LENGTH. THe first step
would be to abolish the Executive Office section that allows religious
group to receive federal funding and not follow United States hiring
laws fully, that Bush approved of.
