Home » Inclusion, the New Smoke and Mirrors of Politics Today.

Many will flock to the banner of inclusion and herald it as a new day and dawn in government. An open and bi partisan government for the benefit of all the people. Well here we need one big gigantic sarcastic MOOOOOOOOO coming from us average Americans. You see we were hoping for change, weren't you? Isn't that what we were all told we would get and were expecting?

I will say this, the cabinet is by fact mixed with those who belong to different named parties. However and that however, is significant, in reality, yes sorry, reality, they are birds of the same feather by nature of facts. It means simply speaking, nothing in that what they professed equals their works. These are the very same people who were, are, and have been part of the government in varied capacities and positions for years. Yes that same old tired and worn Washington insider crowd. Now throw in someone new like an Alan Keys, of Ron Paul or perhaps someone who never served in any government position before and you can say you have made a dent in that circle. Exclude them and you have done nothing, nada, zilch, zero.

So they use the term "inclusion" as herald by the very same who are part of this inner circle which to them only means, change. It means nothing, nada, zilch, zero to the masses. Simply speaking, how can it? They had and do vote like bookends on everything their agenda demands. However, for those that buy into that word inclusion, change,  it will certainly be their trumpet call. Their star rising.

So along with all the professing of change, as they themselves openly and repeatedly professed they would do in leaving the same old, tired and worn Washington ways behind and bringing in the new, what do we get? Common now, what do we get, reality, fact, truth? You got it but  just can't come to say it because frankly you know it as fact yourself and it hurts. Ok, I will, more of the same. Simply Speaking, it is no more then that.

Were we duped, who us? Were we lied to, who us? Were we manipulated, who us? Were we hoping, who us? I guess a little of it all but by nature once again of deed we see the same. Ok, I'll buy that saying time will tell and give him a chance. Well, frankly I must remain skeptical. Why, well only one day after election they were already talking Comprehensive Immigration. Keep your eye on the rubber duck you 81% who opposed it as it bobbles to the surface again. I won't bother to name more issues, you know them all too well.

Yes, Inclusion, the new smoke and mirrors of politics today. It is the way to camouflage the truth, hide reality, smoke and mirrors to those who truly believe and really want to hope for real change. Yes like the magician who has everyone swearing they saw it right before their eyes only to find out later it was an illusion. Yes I would prefer they called it an illusion because in my opinion it really is no more then that.

So in ending let me ask you what was really changed on election day, yes what? Simply speaking it is quite evident, nothing except we did elect a black president. Now here is what in my opinion to look for right after taking office.

1- A major effort for peace, especially Israel and it will be successful.

2- A new world economic order.

3- Prosperity will slowly return, slowly and to the few.

4- Of course, Comprehensive Immigration.

5- A national Health Care plan.

6- An economic stimulus.

7- A major withdrawl from Iraq.

8- A major increase in Afganistan.

7 and 8 hooked to number 1 above.

These simple things to look for yet are they really simple? Hey like I say keep looking up things are certain to get better.
