Nudging America to Change





Nobody Reports on a Monday






Be extremely subtle, even to the point of formlessness.
Be extremely mysterious, even to the point of soundlessness.
Thereby you can be director of the opponent’s fate

Sun Tzu, The Art of War.

So, what do you think? How’s that extremely subtle “nudging” coming? Bribing Senators with million dollar cash give-a-ways is not exactly what I’d call…subtle.

I watched some of the Obama’s White House Christmas on TV tonight, you know, the usual yearly Christmas tour at the White House---and I noticed three things:

The overall theme was “red”...besides the mantra of "hope and change" there was no theme: the first family could not, it seems, find the time to take us through the house…

But they ARE going to have some 30 holiday parties: and Sun Tzu was sitting in the Red Room, talking no doubt to the ghosts of Lincoln.

But here on my little street…Christmas is till very much alive.

It’s good to know, Obama is not America.

America, and its spirit, is still strong and full of form, simple to understand, and screams the desire for the loud and joyous sounds of “freedom.”

America, and Christmas…go together like pumpkin pie and whipped cream, and no amount of red change in the White House is going to change that recipe.

We WILL hand it down. You better believe it.

In fact, Sun Tzu made one mistake… he didn’t have a shredder; therefore, he is no mystery any longer.

You can’t kill a star. Little poor babes in mangers have been known to destroy empires, Kings, and fools. And the greatest nation ever to be built on the planet will not go down with a medicare whimper...

And sometimes...out of nowhere comes…a miracle.

It’s happened before, it will happen again.

The more Obama tries to be formless..as he has expressed in all his platitudes and empty lies, the more he succeeds in reminding us who we really are...

America...land of the free, home of the brave.

Let's hope he keeps it up.
