A common feeling that I and many are sharing these early days of the second decade of this 21^st century, is apprehension. Most of us know why we feel this way, as we collectively point our fingers at Washington D.C. 

    As we point, we ask ‘why’?   Why don’t you in D.C. do something correct, for this Nation and quit playing politics and grabs of personal power. This is one of the frustrating points that drives the Tea Party participants, talk radio host and listeners, and most Americans who genuinely care for this Nation and it’s future.

    Last week was Earth Day, a day set aside for reflection and action to save this planet through words and deeds. Again, most caring people did positive actions that day by planting trees, cleaning up trash, working of plans of action to help the environment and mankind. 

    What we saw our current leadership do is waste millions of tax payer dollars and use and burn enough fossil fuel that 100,000 families would have over a course of year. Thank you Barack Obama and Joe Biden for again showing that you honestly don’t give a crapola about America or this Earth.

    Arizona’s State Government this week, showed courage by doing the right thing and standing up for their State’s rights and for America in general by passing their new immigration enforcement law.   Hispanics are wrongly jumping the gun by saying this is a racist law aimed at Hispanics only.   I challenge ANYONE to show me and the World where in this bill the terms Hispanic/Mexican are?

   This is the bill that Gov. Brewer signed that many of the ‘hispanic’ community are complaining, demonstrating, rioting about, that say this bill is ‘racially’ motivated. Where in this bill does it identify ‘Mexicans’ and “Hispanics’ to be the only ones affected by this bill? WHERE??!!   Prove your talk!!

    Heard an interesting quote this past week concerning this illegal immigration enforcement bill and references to the Tea Party and anti-Obama crowds.   “Prism of race is being distorted over the prism of the Nation and The People.”

    MSNBC, Daily KOS, in particular along with much of the ‘main stream media’ establishment, have been fomenting false allegations of racism towards the Tea Party and all Americans who support the Tea Party. Should MSNBC even be regarded as an independent news organization any more?   Personally, I do not think so. MSNBC’s socialist-left political slant and agenda have become more transparent than the Obama Administration, so much so that I do not even bother anymore watching/listening to them for another point of view. 

    Cereal v. Health Care

     Unlike the Obama Administration and MSNBC & MSM, B.E.V. tries to provide you, dear reader, with real World stories. This one is about a 7 year old American boy and cereal. I have the fortune chance to speak to a young father this past week, he and his family have just returned from Estonia after living there for three years. This young man, ‘Jack’, works for a medical shipping company and his job took to Estonia. Jack took his family with him since he was going to be there a long time and his company paid for Jack’s family to live there with him.

   Jack and his wife, Jill, have 3 children, two boys, 7 and 5, and a girl age 3. The boy has lived in Estonia since, obviously, he was four years old. I asked Jack some simple questions, ‘How does the average Estonian view America now?’  

    Jack replied..”They still like and admire America for all the great things we have, our standard of living, our healthcare, but they view Americans generally as fat and lazy.” 

   I laughed and agreed….one just needs to sit in a Wal Mart parking lot and see ‘average’ America.  

   I asked, “Is your family happy to be back, I bet there’s some culture shock.” I know this myself after living overseas numerous years and then returning to the States.

   Jack replied..”Yeah, big culture shock. I took my family grocery shopping the other day at Publix. I told my oldest son to go pick out a box of cereal for himself. He looked and looked, then could not make any decision. He literally shut down because he couldn’t choose.” 

    I asked..”He shut down?” 

    Jack said, “Yes, there were too many choices, he was almost in a state of shock. He just shut down.   I won’t even think about taking them to a Super Wal Mart right now.”

    I said, “But it was just cereal.”

    Jack said, “In Estonia, you have only two choices of cereal.”

     Lesson here dear reader, you keep supporting ObamaCare and you will end up with only two choices of healthcare, and maybe only two choices of cereal yourself as Obama and the Democrats continue their UnConstitutional agenda to change America into Europe.

    I heard two Obama supporters this past week on different Fox News shows pull the same old tired card out…”blame Bush” for the economy.   One was a few mornings ago on Fox and Friends when Gretchen Carlson was interviewing Valerie Jarrett of the Obama White House, about why Goldman Sachs is being investigated but not Freddie and Fannie Mae? In usual politico speak, Valeria gave a non factual answer and then said ‘we inherited this economic mess 15 months ago.’

   Blame Bush, blame the Tea Party supporters, blame Sarah Palin, blame the U.S. Navy SEALs, blame the victim that was murdered.   But don’t blame us or the criminal, that is the Obama mantra. 

    You see that oil rig that ‘suddenly’ exploded in the Gulf this past week?  Do you believe in coincidence dear reader, and that ‘climate’ change talk is going to start in earnest again with our politicians?   

     President and VP both went to the West Virginia coal miners memorial today…..you can expect talk coming soon that both the coal and oil industry need tighter Federal Government control!!!
