While I have serious doubts that the United States will survive Republican rule, if we do history will have a lot to say about this
shameful period of time. George W. Bush ran as a Uniter not a Divider. Republicans candidates for congress claim, falsely,
to be patriots and lovers of this country. As is plain to see, they are not uniter's or patriotic. Instead, they are mean spirited
partisans who will do or say anything to keep power. They are not real Americans and could care less about anyone in this
country that do not vote for them. In fact, they are Americans only because they happen to live on this piece of land. The
policy makers in the majority party is really just a group neo-fascists who happen to reside in North American and are using -
no, abusing - our political system for their own benefit.
The voters of America need to realize just how close we are to loosing this country. I think that they believe that the USA will
survive no matter what. Wishful thinking. Democracy, the respect for human rights, compassion toward fellow citizens and
the true uniting of the American people will never happen as long as the GOP chooses to use hate to motivate their
supporters. Look at the fingers on your hand - that about how many years we have before America is lost. This threat is very
real.
The United States is currently run by selfish, mean spirited people who hide behind the flag and the Bible. If they really loved
either they would stop immediately. But they don't and they won't.
NEW WEB SITE: It is still in the early stages but I have another web site up and running. CommercialCommentary.com So far I have just a few commercials up but I will add more as time permits. I am starting with some classics that I think will bring a smile to your face. Enjoy!

Keyboardist Billy Preston, a so-called "fifth Beatle" who also played with the Rolling Stones and enjoyed solo success in his
own right, died in Arizona on Tuesday after a long illness. He was 59.
A young keyboards prodigy, the Houston, Texas, native spent most of his life in the entertainment business. While still a
teenager, he played with the likes of Mahalia Jackson, Little Richard and Ray Charles. With his large Afro hairstyle,
ever-present gap-toothed smile and funky clothing style, he was a popular on-stage presence.
