Hey Dude, Take Your Endorsement and Shove It

It's now fifty-four hours w/o. sleeping; Jon Runyan demands nothing less of us and of himself, I know. But enuff already about my tirelessness. This morning's Clarion Call is much greater in scope, as it is, after all, "Morning in America" again, because witchcraft aside, the Tea Party Movement is ascendent on November 2, 2010. Why U ask? Because Americans believe in themselves, and not in faraway bureaucrats solving our economic troubles by imposing tens of thousands of pages of new across-the-board, nation-wide employment stifling regulations.

Nonetheless, while the Nation is focused almost exclusively on domestic issues, the World beyond our borders continues to spin out of control, and not in America's favor.

Then, only a day later comedian Jon Stewart tells Barry to his face: "don't go with that phrase, Dude." Such overt disrespect and absolutely nothing happens to the disrespecters. (Let me be clear, I am not advocating any punitive responses against anyone exercising 1st Amendment Rights).

Nonetheless, America is being put at great risk, having our only Commander-in-Chief seen world-wide as a wimp, a midget, a "leader' who no one fears or follows. So, as we all go to the polls on Tuesday, and I urge u to go early and go often, remember no one should needlessly ridicule or belittle President Obama. Funny isn't it that the two best examples of this dangerous conduct emanated from the far left wing of the Democratic Party. Just saying ...
