The Inmates Are Running The Asylum

    For nearly two months, the lamestream  media has played along with the charades in trying to convince the American public that these "Occupy" protests taking place across the country are just the result of  normal frustrated people letting their voices be heard. They have gone so far as to make illegitimate comparisons to the "Tea Party" protests. Anyone who pays scant attention to the reporting should notice the difference in these two protest movements.
    Beyond the obvious questions that the average thinking person has in trying to figure out why the lamestream media consistently ignores the problems that exists in front of their faces, one has to wonder just how committed to liberalism and political correctness those in the media are willing to be.
    On other issues, they attempt to convince the American  public there should not be any concern about the consistent encroachment of Islam as it is promoted as a "peaceful" religion. Never mind the fact that the vast majority of terrorist attacks have been done by Muslims, or people influenced by Islam. Then there are the aggressive attempts to normalize homosexuality, or as they have gone so far to say now, the LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender) community. I'm quite sure it's every American parents dream that their child grows up to be a part of that group.  And lets not forget the Polygamists, the Wiccans, the Pedophiles, the Illegal Aliens,and the Enviro-nazis.
   According to the media, these are just normal people with an ax to grind. I sometimes wonder why these first class idiots don't ever take just a little time to imagine what this nation would really be like if they had their way.. For many of the common sense folks who are paying attention, we have a pretty good idea of what it would be like, because we see it in other countries, and we see small examples of it here in America. The "Occupy" protests are an example of  "The Inmates Running the Asylum". The curiosity that I have is, when will the majority of the decent people in America wake up?
    For years, those of us on the right have been warning of the "culture war" that has been taking place, and what is coming our way if we don't stand up and fight against those who would systematically destroy our country. Unfortunately, all to many people thought we were just alarmists. Amazingly, even today, people still tell me that.. I realize that there is simply nothing that can be done for some people. I just hope that if you're reading this, that you are at least aware that we have problems that are well beyond the norm. It's not to say that they can't be fixed, but if they are, it will require a major departure from the practices that are in place now.
   In the Presidential election of 1992, then President Bush made character an issue. At that time, many of us didn't get it, but since then, we have come to realize his point. Since that election, there has been numerous times that I have tried to help people understand the importance of authority figures possessing good character traits, yet many seem to have convinced themselves that "character is not necessary". Unfortunately, at this time America is paying a heavy price for that decision. We see it in the markets, in politics, and sadly, also in the church.
   In the past 20 years, we have raised a generation into adulthood that have been taught "character doesn't matter" and now,  many of them have had, and are having children, and the problem is perpetuating itself. We see it everywhere we go. On the job, the work ethic is desperately lacking. In school cheating is commonplace and in some cases assisted by the teachers.
   One thing that continues to amaze me  is that people get so upset when others do the raunchiest things in demonstrating the lack of character that was not considered to be important. It's a classic case of be careful what you ask for, you just might get it.
