So I have been spending many days in NYC as a part of my work. Today, the news is that Weiner and Abedin are calling it quits after yet another round of sexting by....any guesses? There are so many bad and inappropriate jokes here I don't know if I should spend my time working on my humor, or ignore it in hopes that it will just go away. Either way, all I know for sure is that everyone I speak to wants all new candidates on both sides. No one seems to be supporting either party. There is the least number of advertising and yard signs I have ever seen. At this point, I suspect that this may be the lowest turnout of any presidential election in history.
I don't know which candidate is actually a better choice. Let me restate that. I could never vote for Hillary, however, I don't know that I can vote for Trump. If you read my last post, you know that I too have no interest in either candidate. I just wish we could go back to voting for people who have morals, who have principles, who care about protecting constitutional rights over entitlements. My freedom is more important than my security. When it comes to security, I will handle it. I know how to protect my family. I know how to take care of myself. I don't need big brother to look out for me. Military, yes. Protect the country. Have police, but don't infringe my rights in the name of security for the masses.
Lets move on to the 49ers. Colin something is creating a stir over not standing during the national anthem. I figured he was too injured to get up. Its not like he gets up very quick after getting knocked down in the backfield. I can appreciate his stance. He is in favor of locking up Hillary for her scandals and for her email issues. I also heard that he wanted to bring attention to the police issues in black communities. For those of you who think I am a racist for not claiming "African American," instead of "black," just remember, that we are specifically talking about skin color, not Ancestry. I have white skin, but no one ever refers to me as a European American. Furthermore, Not all blacks are from Africa. Maybe their ancestors are, but that is presumptuous to claim African American without knowing their heritage. Also, what about the blacks who are not Americans. Believe it or not, there are black people who are actually African, or European or Asian. If political correctness prevails, God Forbid, then I expect that I will forever be considered a European American and better not hear about being a redneck, or white guy any more.
Enough for now. The news is depressing. At this point, the hurricanes threatening the US are less damaging than the two party candidates, and at least on the Democrat side, the storms are less likely to be deadly than the Clinton machine. Hey, that is catchy. The Clintons, we've killed more people than natural disasters.
I know bad me. Pray for your enemies. I try. Harder than it should be, and I am not perfect. Either way, I pray that God Bless this country, this president, and the next one, regardless of their politics. Who knows, maybe this is God's way of giving us what we asked for. Can't expect God to intervene when we are collectively abandoning Him.
God Bless,
Geoff
