TaBoo!



TaBoo!


 
     Politics is scary!   And it seems there is a connection between Halloween and Election Day.  Politicians are covering up and coming out in full costume. There is dark, evil music playing in the background while the candidates are demonized.  There are treats and promises paraded before us, usually resulting in a policy or regulation trick we later regret.   And, the


White House, turned haunted house, gobbles up our children’s future, spooks our security, and chains our freedom.  The horror of it all causes our minds to race, our hearts to beat faster, and our stomachs to turn.
 


     Sadly, it becomes taboo for us to confront the cover ups and trickery head on because someone might be offended by our perspective or voice.  Bringing up politics is frowned upon at our jobs, at church, in our schools, at our business meetings, and even with our neighbors across the road for fear of stepping on toes or having a disagreement.


 
     Unfortunately, politics is a necessary evil.  In place of a king or queen, a dictator or a czar, we in America have a political system where citizens reach into a competition bag and pull out politicians each election cycle.  It is almost as predictable as bobbing for apples but it is self-governance!  We the people are ultimately responsible each election to engage each other and voice our opinions and values through our vote or risk losing freedom and liberty.


 
     So, no more silence of the lambs!  Break a few taboos and don’t fear to face off with those who might not care to know you care; get a little scary.  In a kind and diplomatic way, discuss the issues facing our Country.  We are not interested in a blame game or conflict but dialogue and solutions.  We know illegal aliens, dead people, and zombie-like voters find a way to vote so those of us who are alive and care about our future need to flock to the polls in greater numbers.  I believe legitimate voters driven by commonsense and positive communication instead of political correctness and silence can break the spell that has bewitched, demonized, and bound America.
