Been gone for awhile … been busy with those things that make you think someone moved the finish line. But this week has just been too juicy to not comment on.

Three posts follow this entry that hopefully will provoke some thoughts and comments from our OH MY BLOG readers.

And here are a few quotes to get you started on the massive scribing to follow:

Politicians are dilly dallying on this bail out “crime” because they are waiting to see if we are asleep, and if they can get away with it.

If we don’t say anything, you know, like demonstrate some sign of righteous outrage, some semblance that we are paying attention, then ….WATCH! They will steal 700 BILLION DOLLARS from us and give it to themselves before the week is up.

That is why they are playing the rush game on us, like cheezy salesmen, “Buy now or it will be gone!”

Intimidation, scare tactics, “Great Depression” Oh No! Take the money, take the money. Please TAKE THE MONEY and RUN back to your mansions and yachts and send your offspring to Ivy League campuses this fall without a financial worry. And send our offspring to war to steal and kill for you. That’s the ticket.

Back in the 70’s Teddy Pendagrass crooned:

“Wake up everybody, no more sleeping in bed. It’s time for thinking instead… No more war and poverty…And they don’t have so very long before their Judgement Day.”

Sing it again Teddy. Louder this time. Because the more things change, the more they stay the same.

Maybe one day, we will wake up. Sooner than later. Because these guys are out of control. And why not? We are just standing back watching like casual observers. But what can we do really?

Mmmmm. Any ideas?

Are we headed for another Great Depression? Or worse, is the U.S. descending headlong into a Third World future? Or, is it all just Hype?

Can we prevent our worse fears from happening?

First, we need to stop the stealing. Unfortunately, we just can’t seem to find the time to get these cattlemen in line. We’re too distracted with our lives.

For instance, do you ever feel as though someone keeps moving the finish line?

Like, just when you think you’re about to catch up with, say — your bills, your work, some long, drawn out “issue” that just never seems to give an inch or go away, like a legal matter, say — a divorce, or a custody battle, or those pesky student loans, family squabbles?

And then something happens to just pull you back under. Like there is this grand conspiracy to just keep you distracted with petty, mindnumbing, BS! You know?

Maybe you don’t know. Maybe you’re one of the lucky few whose life is just rolling along on a highway to heaven, blue skies, bright sun, just enough rain. There you are whistling, smiling, happy go lucky you. Wink Wink. All XOXO.

It’s like there are these two parallel universes — one with people who keep getting close to the finish line, and it disappears, and they have to start over or keep going around in a circle to nowhere; and the other universe is filled with people who see the finish line clearly, cross it and move on to their next success.
