Most citizens are familiar with our
Constitutions opening words: “We the People of the United States, in Order to
form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility,
provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the
Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish
this Constitution for the United States of America.”
Key words could be “insure domestic Tranquility”. What we need is a calmer approach without the rabble rousing of the headlines or twisted words of commentators. Listen carefully to the talking heads when they ask questions. How many times would a Wolf Blitzer, or Chris Matthews ask a negative question in their attempts for a ‘gotcha’.
Why has the woman, Whoopy Goldberg who made her claim to fame by the use of four letter words, become the analyst of our nation political direction? Go to a doctor’s waiting-room and you find yourself captive to either ABC CBS Fox or NBC and their programs of dubious social ilk. Because of age I find it hard to recall whether the half hour evening news of Swayze Huntley Morrow or others were trying to bring down or salve the reputations of Truman Ike or Kennedy. Our President elect who cares little about the TV or print coverages, has a direct response to the daily critics. Is this because critics have taken little time, or effort, to mind their manners? The last seven years have been protectionist for
Obama. If anyone protested about our then President, the media was quick to criticize vocal opponents. Where will freedom of speech take us for the next four years? Will there be a wait and see, or has the attack of the recent two months set the tone for our “Domestic Tranquility”?
NOT LIKELY!
