History 101

By Tammy Derouin

The day after the election the stock market plummeted.  Many large corporations announced lay-offs in the wake of Obama’s re-election.  Hostess, an American icon, will be closing up shop.  This alone will affect 18,500 jobs.  To see more lay-offs that were announced following Obama’s re-election go to www.dailyjobcuts.com. 

The Benghazi cover-up has only gotten worse.  Obama needed a fall guy and it appears he thought Petraeus would be the guy.  Obama is known for throwing people under the bus.  Let’s hope Petraeus tells the truth and doesn’t throw America under the bus.  The Obama House of Cards will fall.  It may take some time but eventually the truth will come out.  Americans died and our president watched and prevented our military from going to their aid.  It took 14 hours for the U.S. military to arrive.  It took three weeks for the government to conduct an “investigation.” The more time that passes the less Obama feels he will have to explain.  We cannot let this cover-up die.  The president and his corrupt administration must be exposed. 

Within a week of Obama’s re-election, every state in the union had some kind of campaign in the works to secede from the union.  A citizen’s push for Obama’s impeachment is also gearing up. What a way to celebrate re-election and this is just the first week.  Obama inherited quite a mess.  I wonder who he will blame.

Succession isn’t the answer.  It’s a way to blow off steam but we are much stronger as a union than as individual states.  I have to wonder if the sheer number of people that are signing these petitions will bring voter fraud into question.  The Left was planning to scream fraud had Romney won.  The DOJ didn’t want to ensure fair elections.  When Florida attempted to clean up its voter registration records, they were told to stop.  Obama didn’t win any state that had voter I.D. enforcement.  Voting machines were defaulting to Obama.  Yet the Left was setting the stage to claim voter fraud had Obama lost, interesting.

It truly is amazing how the personal side and the national side keep shadowing each other.  So let’s break this down.  What is fraud?  It’s cheating.  Someone or some entity that is so eager to accuse someone of cheating must have some knowledge of the actual act.  They don’t want you to see their guilt, insert smoke and mirrors, so they constantly accuse and point the finger and try to discredit you.  As time goes by, those dirty little secrets eventually find their way to the surface.  Those with honor and integrity will still be standing.  Those who wrongfully accuse others have a way of being exposed.  I’m just saying…

Most people think history is boring.  They haven’t truly studied history.  Apparently America needs the “hands on” excitement for learning.  Exciting doesn’t always mean fun.  A roller coaster can be exciting but not necessarily fun.  At first it may not seem so bad, a few bumps a few jarring motions.  You feel the exhilaration of the slow climb up the track of promises.  Your anticipation grows as you get to the peak.  It is no longer possible to look back.  You begin the downward plunge and then realize the tracks are no longer there.  The ring master sold you magic beans.  You bought into the lies that everything was fine and getting better.  You were so eager to get on the ride of empty promises that you didn’t care what method accomplished the goal.  He used you, promised you the world and then sent you cheering off the cliff.  You can’t blame the ring master, can you?  You jumped in on your own.  Welcome to history 101!  Buckle up America; it’s going to be a very bumpy ride.   Americans didn’t want to take the time to learn from the past so we will repeat it.

Missouri is known as the “Show me” state.  It just became the motto for the United States.  Apparently we don’t believe the stove is hot so we have to find out for ourselves.  We have just asked Obama to “show me” how our economy will collapse.  Show me how government will destroy private industry.  Show me how our enemies will destroy us.  Show me how health care will only get worse.  Show me how well the government is capable of taking care of people.  Show me how a vote for Obama will fundamentally transform America.  Show me how Americans will be affected by surrendering their freedoms.  Show me how Americans will react after it’s too late. 

We have sealed our own fate.  Free stuff is apparently the going rate for freedom.
