Welcome

First off, let me tell you all about me. My name is Nick Smith, I am hapily married and I live in a small town. I have 2 wonderful children and I hope to have more one day. I started this Blog (my first blog ever!) to try to convince people to stop believing in any type of political slander that attempts to use fear as a motivator. My personal belief is that the goverment for the past 8 years was controlled by greedy coorporations who use capitalism without reguard. I believe that this is the reason for our current political situation. Greed. Plain and simple. Who is more greedy? I don't know. I believe now, we are paying for it, big time. What I will say is this, I have no party afiliation whatso ever, sometimes I side with the right, sometimes with the left, mostly I try to find middle ground. Remember United we Stand, Divided we Fall? I believe in our founding fathers, I believe in a land without taxation. I also believe that there needs to be a system in place to keep our goverment in check, as well as our cooporations in check. In simple terms, all our problems can be sifted down into simple reasons, our motivation. What motivates us? What drives us? Is it selfish? Is it for Greed? Lets ask oursleves on a daily basis the basic question "Why", or "What is my motivation for doing this?" Or in the political arena, we could ask, what do we believe is the motivaton for this article, or why was this article written. I attest, if the answer ever seems, that the motivation is to scare, or make fearful, it is slanderous. Don't fall for it. Find the facts, and protect your families. Follow the examples of Ghandi, Mother Terresa, Dr Martin Luther King, and Abraham Lincoln. Fight for what you believe in, but do it through truth, love, passion, and long suffering. I invite both sides to post questions, understand I will not put up with slander nor will I put up with vulgar language. I am also only a man, who makes mistakes and whos opinions change.
