John Edwards, His Land Of OZ
By Gordon Bloyer (07/30/04)
John Edwards says there are two Americas. He is right. There is the America most Americans live in and then there is the imaginary America that Edwards and all those delegates to the Democrat convention live in.
In the movie "The Wizard of Oz" little Dorothy goes from the black and white world she lived in, to the colorful world of Oz. At the Democrat convention John Edwards takes us from the REAL America to a dark black America he Al Franken and Michael Moore imagine. In little Johnny’s America most people are poor. grandma can’t get her drugs, most people work in dead end jobs or they can’t get a job, health care does not exist unless you are rich, no one can go to college unless the government pays for it, no one can get a raise unless the government can pass a law to give them one, and everyone needs a trial lawyer to protect them against the evil corporations. In their America our young people are being killed in a war that NO ONE supports. The President of Johnny’s America lies to the citizens every day and only he and John Kerry recognize the lies.
This America is so dark and evil, I wonder why thousands of people are crossing the borders daily to get here? I wonder how 66% of Americans own their own homes? I wonder why the colleges are so crowded? I wonder why the economy is rolling along at a pace not seen in twenty years? I wonder why Michael Moore, Al Franken, Alec Baldwin, Barbra Streisand, Rob Reiner and Susan Sarandon live here? I wonder why President Bush is not twenty points behind in the polls.
The America little Johnny and the Democrats live in is so out of touch with reality, you have to wonder where they get these ideas? Could it be from their willing accomplices in the media? The "we distort you decide" crowd at the networks refuse to give the good news about the economy, they mislead Americans about what is going on in Iraq and they will never describe anyone as a liberal. John Kerry and John Edwards are trying to hide behind the curtain. It is time to click the heels on our ruby slippers and come back to the real America. It is time to stop pitting people against each other with this phoney class warfare. I don’t think people are going to be fooled in November. Kerry and Edwards will be left standing with their rear ends exposed, running from Barney Frank. The America that the "Two Johns" live in does not exist.
I find it hard to believe the Democrat Party has sunk so low. They depend on the ignorant, the uneducated, the uninformed and non-citizens to win elections. They depend on lies, distortions and fear. They are an angry defeated group. This election could be the turning point in the history of the party. A big defeat could send them into oblivion. Let us hope so. Hope is on the way.
