Okay, Okay, I know this could be a book; but I'm going to hold this to just a few examples that really stand out.
Okay, where to begin? How about on bombings and such? Russia's Domodevo Airport get's bombed and it's an Act of Terrorism (Obama's words) but if it had happened here, it would hav been a "Man Caused Tragedy". Are only acts outside the US acts of terrorism or is this a way of keeping terrorist acts out of the country by simply calling them something else? Nice defense there, folks.
I give this next example with some trepidation. Mcveigh and Nichols blow up a government building and they are terrorists. Bill Ayers and the Weathermen blow up buildings and he is now a professor and friend of a President. Do not get me wrong, no form of human punishment will ever make up for the wholesale murder of the people in that building. God alone will do that.
Let's move onto morals. A Republican Congressman sends some emails to some underage interns and is "drummed" out of Congres. A Democrat takes an underage boy to a country where it's legal to have sex with him and he gets "censured" on the floor of Congress while his Democrat bretheren face away from the Speaker in a show of solidarity for him.
Now on to spending. For years, Dems have ranted and railed about how the Bush Administration wasted money and spent us into debt with his "wars" and programs, yet when compared to this Administration, he's a cheapskate. GW can't hold a candle to the 1.4 Trillion in deficit spending being added to the debt annually.
I saved this for last because it really hits home for me. When Dems and Liberals rail against the government, they are merely exercising their Freedom of Speech. They can blow up buildings, trash streets, march in organized groups and get some very favorable press in the media. Hillary can say that it's our patriotic duty to disagree with a government that is wrong. Flip side: Tea Party'ers are villified in the media for disagreeing with the government and wanting less of it. They have been called everything from right wing nuts to domestic terrorists and racists for daring to take a stand againat a government that has become so bloated and intrusive as to be in every aspect of our daily lives. How many of you out there have been treated in a similar manner for your beliefs when talking with someone who thinks Obama is doing a good job? Okay there aren't many in our circles, but it has happened right?
I know there are many more examples out there, but it won't do any good to list them unless we do our part to expose the hypocrisy but going among the "heathen" to help them see the light by opening their eyes. You will never convince an idealogue, but there are a lot of people out there who are beginning to have their eyes opened. Those are the ones we need to reach. If each of us manage to get one person to change their mind, we have done something. And that, y'all, is how Real Change happens!
