Everyone should have a front
porch or a "deck" and use it. Take time each
day to just sit, listen, watch and pray. We have a small deck leading into our
house and it has become the place for Goober and I to visit and honestly
just "vegetate and make friends with the hummingbirds". I wonder if President Obama
ever sat on a porch. I wonder what would happen if maybe he'd get away from
his security folks, get away from his teleprompters and get away from his inner
circle of left wing deviates. Now, if Obama was sitting on my porch with me for
just 30 minutes, I can guarantee you, he'd have a personality change for
the better.
"See those mountains, Mr. President, that's where cattle graze right along with
wildlife. Beautiful, isn't it?...yes. See the fields of potatoes, beans, sugar
beets and corn and hay...it takes a lot of real energy to feed the world, doesn't
it, Mr. President?..yes. Look at my neighbors, Mr. President, see the kids playing
in the yard, see the horses basking in the sun,...oh look! There's an eagle gliding
over the canyon...boy, it sure is relaxing... right, Mr. President?...yes. So tell
me, Mr. President, WHY are you trying to take all this away
from America, why are you...with your left wing socialist ideology, trying
to transform something so good into a frail, mediocre failure? Why,
Mr. President? All of my neighbors work hard to do the best they can for
their families, their community and America...but, you don't
care. You're headstrong and obstinate and foolish to think that windmills
are going to push a John Deere tractor at harvest, or that families
can absorb more frivolous, ridiculous taxes at a time when you and your cohorts
have put this nation on a debt cliff of disaster!!.....you know, Mr. President,
you really aren't for the success of the American Dream...are you? You really don't
think America is #1 and should stay that way...do you? You really never
have had the love and the passion and the tears for our flag as it waves
over this Land of the Free...have you? You really don't understand the American
spirit of "Yes, we can" and "Yes, we will succeed...do you?...I almost feel
sorry for you. Your ideology, personality and politics are bad for America and
quite frankly, for the world...I wonder if there's any hope for you??...
Well, Mr President, I've got to get to work (something probably strange to you).
I've enjoyed the visit and I pray that some of this might sink in
to your socialistic thoughts....aah, Mr. President... Mr. President! Are you thinking
about what I said?.........yes."
Machinery doesn't like me...tractors hate me...riding lawn mowers cringe in fear
as I come close and most things mechanical fail to try 100% when they're in my grasp.
Oh sure...I've had some bad moments...everyone does...but why do they hate
ME?? Excusing the fact that I drove my arena tractor up and over
2 fences while waving at a neighbor...what's the big deal?? Well, yes, I did run
my riding lawnmower into the canal and it took 6 people to pull it out of the 4
foot deep water...it was an accident! Okay, okay, so I fell asleep driving my tractor
in the arena and ran over a 50 gallon oil barrel and got high-centered...are
YOU perfect? So what if I was blinded by the sun and "mowed" the
pumpkins and zucchinis...there were a lot of them!.......These were all
minor events that I'm sure many others have grieved over!!
NOT JUST ME! My wife's face has "taken on" a daily
look of "why"?....I don't know, machines just hate me...it's a curse.
Go to a County Fair...enjoy the exhibits, eat the great food, enjoy the people and
rediscover what Rural America is all about! Get back to the basics, enjoy life
at your County Fair!
GOD BLESS THE USA!
