Charlottesville White Nationalist Rally
The following was an anonymous post forwarded by my Facebook friend who succinctly touches on the real issue of the Charlottesville White Nationalist rally.
"You know what worries me? It's not that a group of racist idiots lit some tiki torches and decided to have a rally. I worry that on Monday they'll go back to their job in human resources and decide who gets hired and who gets fired. They'll put their uniform back on and "serve and protect. They'll sit on a jury and decide the fate of a young person of color.
They'll teach in a kindergarten class. They'll sit across from a couple, who came to this country, worked hard and saved, and have the power to approve or deny them a loan to purchase their first home.
“They'll decide an insurance claim. They'll give an estimate to repair the brakes on a mother's only mode of transportation to get to work each day.”
I don't stay up lamenting the fact that racists feel emboldened to parade in the street.
I stay up because racists have, do, and will apply their racist beliefs in their daily lives and, by extension mine and they don't do it carrying a banner to distinguish themselves.
It isn't the theatrical that worries me. It's the practical."
Now is the time to get off the couch America and let your voices be heard.
We cannot depend on the cowards in Congress to protect our institutions or our rights. Speak out, get involved and Take a Stand!

Will The United States Government Pay Its Bills Or Go Into Default?
It's a shame that the United States government is fighting like a bunch of little whining brats. The GOP is trying to hold America hostage because they don't agree with Obama care and raising the debt limit. The Democrats are standing their ground and not are not yielding to the Republicans. So basically no one wins. Not the United States Government or the American people. The United States Treasury Department says the United States Government won't be able to pay their bills past October 17th, if Congress does not raise the $16.7 trillion debt ceiling by then. Government does not come to an agreement to raise the debt ceiling and they go into default it is going to send the world a message. That the United States is not the world power any more. Just like China's Xinhua stated, that it is about time for a “DE-Americanized world.” I am not surprised by that statement because China's is the biggest holder of America's debt. What really gets me is that the United States Government may or may not pay its bills. Sending America into a collapse that we will never recovery from. How dare they!

Is the United States Goverment Shut Down Holding The People Hostage?
Yes! People are being held hostage because of the government shut down, they don't know when they are going to get back to work so they can get paid. I think this is utterly ridiculous. I'm a disabled person from San Jose California, who receives Social Security Disability. If congress does not reach a agreement my benefits could be in jeopardy. I think the GOP's whole agenda is to send the United States into another recession. One that we will not recover from. Just to discredit the President and blame it on Obamacare.What I want to know why is the GOP and the Tea Party is so against Obamacare? Don't these idiots realize that this will save money and help people in the long run. They are so selfish. People are getting fed up with the government. We voted and put theses people into office and their acting like they forgot how they got there. If only we could impeach them maybe this would not be happening If congress does not get its act together, then it's going to be a serious problem. My neighbor just got out of the military after seven years of service as a sniper. He was talking to my husband the other day and was seriously mad about about the government suspending military death benefits. He was going on and on about how he gave seven years of his life and the government has the nerve to do this. I just pray he does not snap. What needs to happen is, congress should not get paid until they come to a reasonable comprise. Lets see how fast congress comes to an agreement, when their money is messed with. Just like President Obama said on Tuesday in his speech on television, that we need to pay are bills and congress needs to sit down and come to a comprise. If not all the Untied States creditability as the the greatest nation will be gone. Congress needs to stop all this nonsense.

Prostitution Scandal with Secret Service
.
Oh,
Wow! 11 Secret Service Agents hooked up with prostitutes, while off
duty in Columbia. Every ones acting like this has never happened
before. It is no telling how long this has been going on. These 11
Secret Service agents happened to get caught. Some people are trying
to blame President Obama. It is not his fault how these 11 Secret
Service Agents acted. They have been having these “wheels-up”
parties for years after Air Force One takes off. Congressman Darrel
Issa when speaking on CBS’ “Face the Nation” program said
“we’ve heard about these wheel-up parties when the president
leaves.” Ok if that’s the case, why has Congress not said
anything about it before now? President Obama said he is going to
withhold judgment until all the facts are in and if the allegations
are true he would be angry. I feel that if it is true the 11 Secret
Service Agents should be fired and for Congress they should be held
accountable if they knew about it.
