Reverend Wright is normal.

There’s something that people in this world used to put a lot of value on. It’s not something tangible and it’s not something we must be extremely intelligent to have.

It’s morals, values, and class.

I honestly believe we have just lost them. You walk down the street and see pictures of half naked women sold for billboard ads. Teens are walking around with their stomachs hanging out and jeans are basically just another layer of skin. Why did we lose a sense of respect for others but more importantly ourselves?

I know this is my political blog and I will get to the point of it.

First off I want to talk about the disgusting, “slobbering love affair” that Obama had with the media. He’s a black liberal and I understand that. But where was the media when Michael Steel was elected to head the GOP? Where was the media hyping up Condoleeza Rice? No where. Because they were conservatives. This election wasn’t influenced by partisan heads of media pretending to act bipartisan. This election was influenced by the media making clear partisan statements. They hyped up Obama as if he was the messiah (he’s not in case you haven’t noticed recently).

How does this tie in with the lack of morals we have in today’s society? Well, the most important morals lacking in this situation are honesty and dignity.

The media is not honest. The media portays what it wants to portray. The above political cartoon is just one example of how extreme it got this past election. Obama had been close friends with Reverend Wright for many many years. Reverend Wright was an anti-American, white hating extremist. Yet the media blew it off as unimportant. Who cares about the ties between a presidential candidate and his pastor? WELL I DO! He followed and listened to the advice from this nut for YEARS. He clearly believes many of the things Reverend Wright preached about. Yet people decided to bring a lack of dignity to Sarah Palin who was a typical American mother. (I’m not talking about political qualifications here) They critisized her for being a religious woman with a downs syndrom child and teenager who had a son too early. Can you honestly look at yourself and say those are bad things that make her a crazy nut unqualified for a vice presidency? If so, we might as well have senators and governors who don’t even go to college. Who cares about academic qualifications if your political career can be ruined when you have a disabled child. The attacks on Palin were outrageous when compared to the lack of attacks on Obama and his administration.

Second of all I want to talk about something more recent. Obama’s lack of class. I am going to assume that most people today would say a lack of class doesn’t matter in the least. I assume this because of the lack of class I see every day from middle schoolers to full grown adults.

One of our GREATEST allies, if not the greatest, is Great Britain. In the days after 9/11 (some of America’s BEST days) Great Britain sent us the most famous bust in the world of Winston Churchill. It was a gift representing our alliance and signified that Great Britain would help us through the difficult times ahead. Obama gets to the white house and gives it back. Obama tells Gordon Brown he can take it back home with him. Gordon Brown says, “No, no, no. Mr. President, that was a gift from the people of England after 9/11. If you want to keep that in one of your museums, you may keep it in one of your museums but please, no, no, that was a gift. That wasn’t to borrow. We didn’t just lend that out to you. That’s a gift from us.” Obama responds with, “No, that’s okay. We don’t want it.” And he sends it back!! WHAT?! What can possibly be his thought process behind that?! Then, to top it off he gives Gordon Brown literally, here me out…LITERALLY a basket of DVDs made in America. That was Obama’s gift to Great Britain. DVDs. Gordon Brown comes the entire way from England to meet with Obama (even though Obama refused to hold a press conference) and he gets a gift from our newly elected president of DVDs…not to mention the fact that Europe has a completely different way of watching movies and so Brown won’t be able to even watch them! Then to add insult to injury, Gordon Brown brought a set of pens to Obama. These pens were made out of the wood from the ship The Resolute. Long story short, the desks in both the white house and the one in Great Britain are made out of the wood from this ship. The returning of the ship from the US to Great Britain was a symbol of friendship years ago from America to England. So Obama recieves these pens as a symbol of friendship and he returns a bust of Winston Churchill and gives Brown a bunch of DVDs. Like I said, lack of class. How can anyone think this is a good idea?! What is happening to our country?! This almost makes me more angry than his horrible policies! At least show some dignity for the country and respect to Great Britain.

I don’t even know what else to say. This is dispicable.
