Friday.....America.....Coming With Me?

Before yesterday I could not have identified Stephen Colbert in a line-up for I have never seen him on television, nor have I seen The Daily Show. As for Jon Stewart...I recognize the name but can't put a face to it. That's just one of the benefits of not having extended cable television. I've written quite a few times on a la carte cable where we would choose the stations, and only the stations, that we wanted to pay for in our home. The issue is still being debated in various circles, usually presented as a way to save money on the cable bill but my passion for it is that if we were able to easily just say no when subscribing to what cable television implants in the American mind we would be more discerning and far less susceptible to the schemes and agendas offered by those with different worldviews of America. A few days ago, as I was just pondering everything this administration has given us, I saw Barack Obama more as a gamemaster in a fantasy role playing game than as a President of the United States, with personality and charisma as his weapons against enemies constructed by him, given only weapons he allots them, and even at that, the game would be falling apart. Apparently, Stephen Colbert was, at one time, a devotee of Dungeons and Dragons and his performance on Capitol Hill today is indicative of the liberal mind, excuse me.....the modern liberal mind that has long since gone down the rabbit hole as he treated the United States Congress as a comedy club. Oprah and the women from The View are actually major influences to millions in the forming of opinion. Although liberals own most of broadcast and cable television, the medium is also dangerous to conservatives and I gave a strong caveat a while back on giving the popular show 24 any place in serious consideration of terrorism. This house of cards that the Obama presidency has built is tumbling and we dare not laugh for he may live in a world of fantasy but he occupies a position in world of harsh realities, with real enemies. Today's news is that both CNN and NBC have given the boot to their chiefs and they are jumping ship at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. That we are being transformed is clear but into what is not so clear. There is absolutely no room for sitting back and waiting for election results on November 2nd. I watched an episode last night from an old television western called Wanted: Dead Or Alive starring Steve McQueen as bounty hunter Josh Randall. It was different, to say the least. Randall had been sent out to bring back a bank robber. On the way back that character died from a fall in an escape attempt. The episode ended as Randall walked away from the sheriff after finding out that he was sent after an innocent man. Where are you going, the sheriff asked as Randall turned to walk away. To find a church was his response, followed by coming with me?. This transformation will be worthless if it doesn't include a humbling before the creator of every atom in this universe and also of time itself that the cosmos exists in. Coming with me?
