Guest posting- America and freedom

Hi man, thanks for the opportunity to share my two cents with your readers!

Isn’t it funny and ironic how America proclaims democracy and boasts of being “the land of the free,” yet Americans awake everyday to a President who does not defend gay rights and is actually in the process of proposing legislation to redefine marriage preventing scores of people from living with their true sexuality. We have chosen a President to represent the interests of ALL Americans yet he is selective in whom he represents. So many Americans are gay, lesbian, homosexual and transgender, about ¼ of the population or even more, yet the President is against them. Moreover, so many Americans are against the pointless war, over ½ the population or more, yet the President won’t withdraw troops. So many Americans do not want Bush to be President anymore, yet they can’t seem to get him out of office, and so many Americans want to be free yet in the next election they will vote Republican or choose not to vote at all. Well maybe we are free to become poorer as the rich become richer; maybe we are free to complete a simple “parking lot” test where there are little cars and no lanes and then be given a license and allowed to operate a vehicle on the streets of America (a license to kill); maybe we are free to continue allowing the authorities in American to ENSLAVE our minds under the false pretensions that we are indeed free. America, the land of the free?!
