WAKE UP

THANKSGIVING 2010

Wake up

This is the tomorrow

You were warned about yesterday

 Concern

Predicated on

One’s personal effect

(EFFECT; An impression that is artificial)

 

When affected

a flurry of reaction

no time for the opposition

 Consider

unintended consequences

almost always seem to come true

 

Perhaps

the Conservative view

would be restrictive

 Perhaps

the Liberal view

would be expensive

 

Lighten up

and

spend less

 

The Liberal

wants your money

to give to someone else

 The Conservative

wants someone else

to earn their own money

 

Three years

the Pilgrims tried

a Communist like experiment

 First Thanksgiving

celebrating the end

of that failed experiment

 

Socialism

always tried

and always fails

 Cost

our freedom

crushing the spirit

 Truth

often the victim

of preferred ideology

 Lie

just once

makes you a liar

 Me

please know

I’m a recovering liar

 Truth

must be

required first

 Before

your solutions

can be considered

About Sailor

Yup, it's me! The author of all you read here (except for the comments of course). Having been asked to write a short article for "About Yourself", I was forced to labor (for a moment-or-two), upon what eloquent words I might use to explain myself. ................................................................................................................ This simple thought process yielded an even simpler solution. You need but read the words I have published here. All the writings (except for the Comments), are copyrighted ©, the moment the "post" is digitized and made available to the world (WWW) by the servers at namecheap, the best Hosting service you'll ever need. http://www.namecheap.com?aff=15525 Please read: "Proprietary Rights". ............................................................................................................. Now, to continue with "About Me". I am sure you will find a few of my views embedded within my poems, and, if I would quit procrastinating, within the chapters of my future novels. .............................................................................................................. I would ask you all to subscribe to "RANDOM THOUGHTS"
