I rarely throw in my two cents when it comes to political
matters but this time I just can’t hold my tongue-or more aptly, my
fingers. Our nation’s leaders are
behaving like Kindergarteners. Instead
of holding their breath until they get their own way, they took their
metaphoric bats and balls and went home.
I can’t help but wonder what our founding fathers would think of this
kind of behavior.
I’d like to think that our Founding Fathers would take a
very old-school, fatherly approach.
Perhaps, they’d take those spoiled brats behind the woodshed and whoop
some sense into them. I’d pay good money
to see a ghostly George Washington or specter-like John Hancock dragging
Senators or Congressmen out by the scruffs of their necks and “tanning their
hides”. Instead of a Boston Tea Party they’d
throw a “D.C. Paddling Party”.
Regardless of your political affiliations, or lack
thereof, the time has come to look beyond the differences and start caring
about what really matters: securing a nation of freedom and prosperity. Once
upon a time, men gave their lives to grant us freedom and this is not the way
to repay them for that sacrifice. And if
we don’t, someone just might break out the Ouija board and recall the ghosts of
America’s past. Sadly, the government
would have to temporarily shut down again because they wouldn’t be able to sit
for a week! Sleep well and CYA!
