According to the First Amendment to the Constitution,
"Freedom of speech is the political right to communicate one's opinions
and ideas." Political operatives should send out a blanket "Miranda
warning" to every American citizen to be careful of what they say or think
because if it doesn't agree with those in power, those words or thoughts will
be held against them...especially if they work for the "wrong
candidate."
It allows democracy to shine brightly, despite interference
from a foreign outsider in a very small speck of a country located in a very
violent region of the world. This will force the Obama administration to
conduct honest foreign relations in the Middle East
to support an American ally. Israel
just called Obama's hand.
I'm pretty sure this post will insult someone, for that I'm
sorry, but. Changing societal norms and overly sensitive and fragile people
need to understand they have forced political correctness into overdrive. In my
old age, elderly status, grandfatherly or whatever the politically correct
title I am known by I am afraid to sound stupid, uninformed or mentally
challenged when trying to address someone in a polite way. I am flattered when
a young person addresses me as "Dude" because that indicates that
they welcome me into their youthful world, but when a young person addressed me
as "Hey" I explain to them that "hay" is the first stage of
horse crap! How does a school address the caretaker of children? If they call
someone "parent" wouldn't that offends the uncle or aunt, brother,
sister or friend in charge of taking care of a child? If my opinion offends
someone, with a grunt, I'm sorry.
