Think for Yourself - Question Authority

[panhead1961]

If there was ever a time to stop listening to the BS it is now. The republicans want HRC to get the nomination because they know they can beat either beat her or own her. Obama is a wild card that has something they can't buy, he has something the republicans didn't think mattered. He has the american people hoping. Hoping that their vote counts. Hoping that the wa will end. Hoping that the world can forgive us for being everything we stood against for the longest time. Hoping that it will finally show that we care enough to kick out of the White House the criminals that stole the office right in front of our eyes.


Throughout human history, as our species has faced the frightening, terrorizing fact that we don't know who we are, or where we are going in this Ocean of chaos, it has been the authorities, the political, the religious, the educational authorities, informing in our minds their view of reality. To think for yourself you must question authority and learn how to put yourself in a state of vulnerable, open-mindedness; chaotic, confused, vulnerability to inform yourself.

1. Very wise words.

Dangerous in the workplace with regards to being seen as not being a team player, someone to be marginalized and passed over. But timely advice in the world of politics. If more people questioned authority, and not just the opposing political party the world would be a much better place.

2. People are starting to care

Because it is now affecting them. They do not have to watch the war on TV but now that the economy is starting to get into their wallets people are starting to care. Hopefully it's not to late.
