Have We All Gone Mad?

     Good morning and welcome to October 2, 2013 and everyday I ask myself how deep into the madness will I go today?  Will I allow my passions and anger invade my serenity to a point to where the pressure takes me off the road of reason?  Half the nation insists that all is well and the other half is miserable and has deep feelings of impending doom.  Yes, divided we are.  Divided in philosophy and opinions and some of us to dangerous extremes while others may withdraw into surrender and depression.  The feelings...do we let them overtake us, to control us?  Will this frustration drive us all mad to the point to where we are consumed by one mob or another or will we hold the line and stand true to the virtues that have always served this nation so well?

     History tells us that in all cases where a nation goes off the rails and all decency is lost, it can all be traced to the top leadership.  It is leadership that is ideologically driven without regard to any sort of logic.  It comes from narcissistic self involved leaders who have an underlying antipathy for his people and will hold fast to any idea without compromise or regard for a more logical path.  Leaders of this type have the right face for leading the masses into total destruction.  He has the public face and the full support of the media propaganda machine.  He can do no wrong and if he does he effectively assigns all blame into a different direction.  He can make the big lie look as absolute truth.  We have seen these leaders in history but we never learn from it!

     "Too much sanity may be madness and the maddest of all, to see life as it is and not as it should be."  Miguel de Cervantes

     All of you have a safe and happy day.  Fidelity to your causes and never give up on what's right.   Best regards...Jimmy
