Subject: RE: BS: I'm Tired of Being Afraid; MichelleObama
Living with fear & reacting to it is a far cry from the life we're living in the US today. We are presently only living with a facade of fear, a see through fence thrown at us by those that use it as a tool & means totheir ends but on the track were going it will become a real wall. We are building those walls now, look to the Mexcian Border, that's more than a physical wall it's won't keep out the unwanted it'll only justify the use of more terror. If Obama is the only one to sit with all our enemies & allies with out conditions that'll be the 1st time anyone has seen terror as a sickness that needs a cure & not just a treatment of symptoms. It won't be long before we become the butt of all terrorists & our walled borders won't stem one wave of the incoming tide. Even if we could stem the tide the life we'd be living would be a far cry from what we're living now. The changes that we live with now since 9/11 are 1st ridiculous & uncalled for but when real fear hits our shores the changes will be far from what we'll ever imagine. All it takes is an open mind, a tuned ear & a welcoming & helping hand rather than a ruthless sword, an ever watching eye towards profit & a greed that cause this nation to feed on its self as well as those that posess what we disire. If Obama in tired of living in fear good for them. The people of this nation are tire too, tired of having their votes not worth the paper it should be written on, tired of being allowed to be raped be drug barons, tired of working till their backs break just so the rich can ride high & migty over them, tire of laboring their lifes away to be cast aside as unhealthy vagabonds disitute, boke & unwanted after they've been used up. Well if it's a big deal that the Obama's are tired why isn't a big deal that the lower classs of this nation have been sick, poor & tir for the past 1/2 century. At the very least if they're the 1st that that feel this way it's been a long time coming, baby.

I don't see much hope for this nation in the long run, hopefully it's people will realize who's running for them & who's running against them, the last 7 years they've been helplessly fooled, hopefully they'll come to their senses. Sitting down & talking with everyone unconditionally is a 1st step in that direction.
