The case of the missing blogger... solved.

My co-blogger called me out recently regarding my lack of blog posts. I had at one point begun to write a blog entry and realized that my once freely wagging tongue and proudly conservative wielded pen were suddenly strangely restrained. What was this block? What was it keeping me from lashing out in an impassioned plea? I was suddenly struck by the impending danger that might come from stating a differing opinion than the Obamanical sheeple who would hate and discredit anyone who dares present a differing thought than the one that is poured out of the West Wing through the mouths of talking heads on the alphabet networks (and the MSNBC, CNBC, BONBC...) like Koolaide at a Jim Jones, People's Temple, Last Dance party.
Yes. I get it and fully understand, it was really tough for the Left during the previous 8 years, I'm mean, the torture chambers and rape rooms of Fairfax Virginia and Bakersfield California were filled by the verbal detractors of the regime, plucked from their homes by W's secret police, even as they sat and watched Kathy Griffin on Bravo!
Please, even with W in office, God forbid you actually showed the man support, for fear that your car would be keyed. Not only was it okay to openly hate the man and his administration but it was really in vogue! Being "Anti-Bush" certainly didn't make you "edgy" or "different", it really made you "boring" and "typical". Every comedy show was focused on making fun of the President. Every Hollywood actor with a mouth, used it to spout their diatribe. Music. Whatever the artistic media. It was all the same! What if the tables were turned? Would you being willing to die for the Right's right to speak freely, the same way that they were for you?
Fast forward to today. Four months into the Presidency of Barack Obama and just you try to raise a voice of opposition. First DHS has actually printed the parameters of a watch list and a description of "Radicals" to watch out for... guess what... according to the definition... I am certain to make that list... mostly based on the fact that I have openly spoken out in opposition to the policies or at least the ideas and vision of the current administration. Say how you believe, out in the open and expect for the hate to come quickly and without relent. People who have been friends, family. Raise your voice even slightly with a questioning tone and watch them fall away, in support of the Motherland. Sound familiar? Otherwise, normal Germans who sold their neighbors, friends and family to the Reich and sent them to their imminent end in support of the Motherland. There would be NO political detractors. And as a blind follower of the man of much charisma, it was their feeling, as it had been taught to them, that anyone who didn't support him, 100%, was worthy of your hate and therefore, if they were taken away on a freight train, in the middle of the night, and never returned... "well, thank God they're gone," now we can get on undisturbed with our orgy of personality worship!
Look, I don't know if I plan on continuing to write, but I do know that I hate being hated. I hate having people judge me, without them ever knowing the love I have in my heart. My greatest desire has always been to bring an alternate opinion and hopefully sway a few opinions. I would like to write here again but understand this, I never made fun of your opinion, I never spit on you or your kids, I never wrote retort to make you look like a fool but unfortunately, the favor is not returned and never has been nor will it be. Just know. You are not "super different" or "really super intellectual" or "very deep"... your jet black hair, and pierced lip and nose only prove you to be a follower... never a leader, never different and unique, only mundane, normal and boring. Maybe I will write again after all... I feel better!
