Same Old Same Old

This is the forth post of mine since the end of September, and when I started it, I thought I would have allot to write about.  With Washington being in its same grid lock that it has seemed to be in since the 2000 election, I have found that that there isn't allot to write about.  This post will be short and sweet.  Till Washington gets its' act together, this country will continue to lose its' footing as the worlds great supper power.  And in my opinion we will not regain any of that footing till we elect a President that knows how to be a leader, and a leader is something that President Obama is not. Make no mistake, I am not saying that GW Bush was a leader, this country has been a ship without a capable captain since President Clinton, and we have not had a truly strong leader since President Reagan.  2016 will be a very very important election, simply because 16 years is a long time to go without having a truly strong leader at the helm of our great country.

What Happened to the "Peoples" House

After watching a disturbing video yesterday of a black Infinity being surrounded by officers from three different law enforcement agency's and being stopped in a humane manor, I wondered, why does the fact that it was in front of the White House (the "Peoples" House) and on the roads near the Capital suddenly gives the officers a free pass to open fire.  I, like allot of people have watched my far share of the show "COPS".  This is the show were it fallows real life police officers from different areas of the country around on there daily beat.  I have seen several episodes that involved high speed chases in much more populated areas and causing far more dire situations than the one that appeared to transpire in our nations capital just a day ago.  The black Infinity surrounded my officers with guns drawn is stopped when it pulls away, not one of them shot out tires or put a few rounds into the engine block to immobilize the vehicle as the officers have be trained to do, not to mention that none of them seemed to notice a car seat in the back of the car containing an infant.   After hearing several reports from high ranking officials from all the different agencies, I came to the conclusion that, apparently the officers were right to open fire with intent to kill simply because it took place at and near the White House and the Capital.  What if innocent people had been injured by gun fire?  What if the child was injured or killed?  None of this seems to mater all because it took place in front of the White House, our as the current first lady called it "The Peoples House".  I find it very disconcerting that "We The People"  are cut off from "our" house by a man that we hired, and not only that but they people guarding it have the right to kill even if other options are glaringly available, spike strips, road blocks, shooting out tires and engine blocks.  A woman lost her life and a child is without a mother now because the officers involved couldn't handle the situation they were trained for, or were ordered to do just what they did, kill an UNARMED women.  Because as of now "The Peoples House" is the mansion of an elected dictator.
