MORT’ meanderings


“This isn’t who we are”.
“This is who we are”.     
                                                                      -  Barack Obama
As a native born citizen of these United States in full possession of all my senses – and exercising my right as one for whom this Government is Constitutionally obligated to serve rather than dominate – I hereby instruct and issue a direct order to the current President (Barack Hussein Obama) to cease and desist using these two expressions, since he has proven he  hasn’t the slightest F’ng idea of what they actually mean.   
He is ignorant of factual American History and is committed to obviating The Constitution and the Bill of Rights.  Further, he doesn’t know what he doesn’t know and hasn’t the least interest in preserving the traditions of Liberty and personal freedoms that was the driving force behind the bold and courageous actions of the Founding Fathers who fought the British to establish those freedoms in the original 13 colonies.
Obama is committed to bringing about the tyrannical influence of radical, militant, Islamist ideology in this nation and that is the diametric opposite of ‘Who we are’.  When a president goes rogue and takes such obvious joy in mocking all the sacred bastions of independence and denigrating the freedoms for which so many of our fellow citizens have fought and died, he has forfeited any legitimate authority to direct the future of this nation.  Obama is who he is for sure but, he is for sure, no part of ‘Who we are’.

MORT’s meanderings


We were clearly warned, 237 years ago.
A number of the Founding Fathers who had a direct hand in writing The Constitution, expressed at that time, their reservations and concerns about the propensity for humans to act corruptly as they jump at opportunities to pander to their own selfish interests.  
That gathering of patriots from the thirteen Colonies, had the foresight and the collective genius to create this most sacred document.  It is their concept that they conceived, considered, debated and agreed to -  hand-inscribed on a piece of parchment -  that has successfully guided the  leaders of our nation since that tumultuous time.  Those patriots were exceedingly wise men. They knew human nature and they were prescient in their concerns.
Sadly for our nation, as this is written - greed, stupidity & self-indulgent behavior en masse seem to have become the order of the day.  Unabashed avarice appears to have gained the upper hand over the so-called, ‘better angels’ of men.  ‘Something-for-nothing’ now trumps entrepreneurship.  ‘An honest day’s work for an honest day’s pay’ has become a laughable creed to deride and snicker about.
The question is, ‘How to overcome this seemingly insurmountable majority of people who are  committed to immorally voting themselves more and more goodies – that are of course, paid for by somebody else?’
Silly me, I’m placing my faith in divine intervention by that same Creator to whom George Washington prayed on that freezing night in 1776, as he was preparing his rag-tag army to cross the ice-choked Delaware River and take the enemy by surprise.  I pray for a reincarnation of that American icon. We desperately need someone who has the wisdom and the fortitude to lead this nation back into some semblance of its former sanity.   We need a man of Washington-like character.
Is this one small miracle too much to ask?
