Isn’t it Obvious?

“RESCUE THIS WOMAN”

(May 27, 2014) — I don’t care what you think. There, I said it. I don’t care if you get down on your hands and knees and worship your vacuum cleaner or, for that matter, your non-stick frying pans. Maybe you’re into old maps, old books, or new proof coins, still in their plastic wrapper. Maybe I’m Presbyterian and you’re, Heaven forbid, a, No! Don’t tell me! An Atheist!

But I do care about your actions (or inactions) that, somehow, affect my country. I definitely care about how you drive and raising your kids to live the Golden Rule. I expect you to vote honestly, and, if you’re a government employee working on my behalf, I expect at least the minimum effort to fulfill your job obligation. I don’t expect a policeman to lie, the DA to withhold evidence, and a judge to rule on anything other than the facts and to stop thinking about the subject of pensions, at least while in court.

I expect to live my life being treated as I would treat others: minding my own business and you mind yours. You see, I’ve more important things to worry about, like getting out of the United Nations, abolishing the IRS, and giving pink slips to every Homeland Security employee. You see, I don’t really care if you fry your brain on watching sports your whole life or doing anything else that would save you from reading War and Peace or, for that matter, Hemingway.

If, for instance, a person believes in, say, Christianity, and someone else doesn’t approve of that, well, I say “Too bad” and “Mind your own business.” Let’s say that there’s a woman who wants to be a Christian and there are some (billions?) mentally-challenged individuals who, for any insane and obscure made-up “reason,” decided to throw the woman in jail. Let’s up the ante: the woman is pregnant and she’s facing 100 lashes (40 will kill her) and then hung by the neck until dead just for believing in Jesus Christ.

Sorry, that’s way, way over the edge of any semblance or excuse for the argument of “reason” somehow to be involved in this equation. The woman’s belief system isn’t harming anyone; as a matter of fact, just think if everyone believed and followed the Golden Rule.

No, we don’t ignore when any Christian is being persecuted anywhere in the world at any time. We go in with guns blazing and put an end to it. What, we’re now a nation of wimps?

No one has any respect for the United States anymore because we’ve become a nation of crybabies: “Whaa! I’m offended. Someone has more money than I do. Someone worked 18 hours a day for ten years to get his home remodeling business off the ground and drives a decent truck, so now he’s a target because of  sacrifice and hard work?” Give me a break.

We’ve a military wasting away in Afghanistan, and for what? To bring democracy to a bunch of Neanderthals (Muslims) who kill girls if they learn to read? So here’s a pregnant Christian woman (Meriam) facing hanging just for being a Christian. My solution? Hang on: take every military asset that we have: all the Coast Guard, Army, Marine, Air Force and Navy (including the subs) and ADMINISTER JUSTICE: rescue this woman and render the same “justice” to those who would wish her dead.

That’s what I would do if I were the president: I’d lead. I’d take names. You with me on this?

Semper Fi
