So many of the undesirable changes made in this country, have been a result of the way the language has been used, misused, twisted, changed and subverted. George Orwell, double-think, double-talk. We have difficulty communicating, because we differ in the intrepretation of words, which frequently carry different connotations to different persons.
For example, take the word “progressive,” an adjective with positive connotations, like making progress, moving forward. Conversely, it can be used to mean reform in Government, to totally change this country from a Republic with a Constitution, to a socialist, marxist, communist form of government, which is negative.

The past few weeks, the news has been dominated to some degree about the horrors of the earthquake in Haiti. Like so many other disasters, news report slants are changing somewhat from Rescue and Recovery to human interest stories, some great and heroic and some which leave a bad taste in one’s mouth.
Stories about trafficking of children, for prostitution and slave-labor are particularly disturbing. We can expect to hear more stories about the use of all the money poured into Haiti and the distribution of goods and services.

FOURTH INSTALLMENT IN THIS SERIES
I titled this series “The Great Wall of Obama” because the predicament we are now in reminds me of the Great Wall of China, built to surround China, to keep some in and others out. The current Wall is an invisible one, walling off rational thinking and facing the truth about what is happening to this great Nation. We have followed, like sheep to slaughter, the mind set and rhetoric of those out to dismantle and change this country from a Republic to a Socialist State in favor of a global empire.

After the first twenty minutes of President Obama’s SOTU last night, I began feeling like he was taking us all to the woodshed. As he continued it seemed to me his tone distributed a lot of blame on others, while bragging about his accomplishments. Interesting remark, “Saying no is not leadership.” He’s in charge with a Congress who favors him, in control of billions of dollars, Commander-in-Chief of the military, a position to execute laws, plus luxurious Air Force One to roam the world in.
