Merry Christmas To All

Well another year has come and gone. It seems like only yesterday that we all were waiting in anticipation of the upcoming elections in November. Well the elections have come and gone as did the past year.

So much has occurred during that year. Some good some bad. For me the year began on a sad note. My sister died two days after Christmas and though she is gone she still remains very much alive in my heart.

In April I lost my Gingerbread girl. Ginger was my companion and comforter. She met me everyday at the door and would lay down on her back waiting for me to rub her tummy. She followed me around like a small dog would, even though she was a cat. I miss her too and she as my sister will always be close to me in my heart.

We've watched the economy deteriorate and go into free fall because of greedy corporations and the people who run them. Whose only thought was to see how much money they could make off the backs of the working poor and middle class.

We've watched the housing market tumble as more and more Americans lost their homes and became homeless. We've watched Americans lose their pensions due to the greed of Wall Street and the World Economy collapse because Wall Street pushed out $541 Trillion Dollars worth of bad paper into the Global Markets.

We've watched more and more Americans lose their jobs as company's were unable to get the financing they needed to make ends meet and for payrolls and inventory because the Banks would not loan them the money they needed.

We watched the current Administration bailout the Corporations, Banks and Wall Street to the tune of $700 Billion Dollars. The same people who were responsible for the Economic Disaster that we now find ourselves in with no oversight at all.

We watched as Fascist Republicans blocked a $25 Billion Dollar bridge loan to the American Automobile Industry which is Americas last big Manufacturing Sector left in America. All the while putting the interests of Foreign Countries and there Automotive Plants in their own Southern States first.

We've watched VP Dick {Heinrich Himmler} Cheney go on National Television and admit that he not only instituted the Torture Policy inside the People's House, but also Authorized the use of it. In other words Cheney admitted to War Crimes which makes him and all those who sat in on the planning and implementation of said Torture Techniques War Criminals as well.

Then we had elections in November and with it finally a chance to restore our Constitution, Honor, Integrity and Good Name both here at home and around the world. Well we did. We elected for a change a Honest Humble man of Integrity. A man who if anyone can will put the American People and America first.

We elected Barak Hussein Obama an African American as Our President and the next President of Our Country.

So even though the year has come and gone we look forward to a new year. A year when we can start restoring America and making it a better country for all Americans and not just the wealthy few.

So as this year ends let us all look forward to a new and prosperous new year where all men are created equal and once again we will have a Country of the People, For the People and By the People.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

May your new year be filled with nothing but joy and happiness.

And God Bless you all no matter what faith or non faith you are.
