But please don't take off all your clothes, just take the blinders off and see what this country has really come to.Tonight, at approximately 9:01 pm. ET, President Bush will address the nation on the urgent need for a $700 billion bail out. The speech is scheduled to last less than 15 minutes. The irony of this bail out speech is the individual who is rendering it.
President George W. Bush, Jr., erased a $300 billion surplus brought on by the Clinton administration. He engaged us in a 7-year war with seemingly no end in sight. Under his administration consumers became victim to predatory lending, those who make above $250,000/yr received greater tax breaks than the middle class, funding for education has been dramatically reduced, and now our financial system is at the brink of Depression.
And if you haven't heard, John McCain (Mr. Country First) wants to suspend his campaign and forgo the Presidential debate on Friday to go work on the crisis in Washington instead of coming up with a plan as a presidential candidate and inform the American people what he will do to fix this mess.
Admittedly, it's one of the best political 1-ups I've seen in my short 30 years, but it's nothing more than a photo-op. It's a statement to get ahead in the polls. At the most critical time in our country in almost 80 years, we've still got people with self-serving missions while people perish.
How close are we to a recession? A depression? I've heard and read so many different views I don't even know anymore. All I know is that the nation that forgets God...
Time to start praying harder and invoke 2 Chronicles 7:14.
