Xmas time is coming soon - and the beat goes on.

Folks after hearing Obama's speech, I am reminded of a pitchure I saw showing a little boy making his Christmas wish list, and in the picture, this list went on an on. Folks I am a child of the 1929 Depression. I was born into a family that was but never was. I was born in the year 1930, to be one of eleven children born to a mother who was diagnosed as an Epeleptic. My mother died when I was 10 years old. But throughout our families hardships and in spite of them, my father never deserted us. And during the depression years, he could always manage to find some kind of work, to help sustain our family. He never got an unemployment check in his life. I started to work at age 8 and never stopped working until I retired. During the depression years, my family was helped by a Mexican family and as well, due to my mothers illess, my family was blessed with having a black women, come to help my family. During my early life, I slept in boxcars, backseats of cars, got arrested for staling firewood, and yes I got sent to a boys training school, for working, instead of going to school. I have lived in an Orphanage, a training school for boys, six foster homes worked all through the war years and at age l7 Joined the United States Air Force. Today I am 79 years old and looking back on my life, I was only out of work twice, but each time I went to the unemployment office, I took the first job offered. I was there for a job not a check. Why am I telling you this now. Well I stronly believe if my family could make it through the depression and WWII and still I ending up in a pretty fair financdil position at retirement, I believe any one could. I find it hard to understand how, today, in the land of plenty, how 60 percent of our citizens are on some form of government largess. forty percent pay no taxes, and full grown men and yes women, saying they cannot find work. This is bull crap. If I, as a young boy, a black women, and a mexican family could find work In the Depression years, I have no sympathy for those living in America today saying they cannot find work and saying that the have given up looking for work--they make me sick. I could go on an on, but what for. Now I hear a man like Obama, saying we have to all pull our share--while giving 6o percent of our nations wealth as entitlements to a bunch of slackers, drunks, and just plain freeloaders looking for hand outs, intead of pulling their waight; in a land of freedom and still, by the standars of 3rd world countries, we are rich beyond belief. In his speech tonight I, at times, felt like throwing a brick through the TV. We are going bankrupt because we are catering to the lower belly of our people. These citizens are not ones born of/in the greater generation. His wish list was sickening to me and, I hope, milions upon millions of my fellow Aericans This was a man who, for a full year, tried to destroy this nation and only when he put his ass in jeopardy, he comes to the fore spreading more BS than I have heard in the many years of my life. And these damn fools, Democrats and yes at times, Republicans clapping for him. Obama is a walking, talking machine of little action and a lot of double talk, coming from two tela -Promters. Now I have to listen to idiots telling us how good the speech was. Forgive them for they know not what they doeth!
