Finding the Truth (2.)

  Speaking the truth isn't easy and it takes a fair amount of courage, because more often than not, the truth will make you more enemies than friends. The truth hurts, it slaps you upside the head with common sense, there is no wiggle room with the truth, the truth just is. Often, the truth can be troublesome for politicians, and so they will use semantics to blur the facts, and pepper what they say with partial truths. The best of them are masters at avoiding speaking truthfully. These are the ones who flip like flags in the hot air of the day's public opinion. They want only to say the words that the crowd wants to hear, even when they themselves disagree with it, and know it to be untrue.
So what is it that can be done, now that the country is so hidden in this bed of lies, what can we, the average citizen do against the lies spread by the powerful? What is needed is the truth, even in the smallest things, speak truthfully to your fellow citizens, because big changes always starts small. It really is up to us, you and me, the people. We certainly can't count on our political leaders as they are the ones who got us all so confused with their political double speak, that it is hard to find the truth about any subject. Political lies is what has changed this country so much that for many, it doesn't seem if this is still the country we grew up in? If things like honor and integrity are important to you, we, the people of this once honorable land must act. Want your country back? If yes, then the responsibility begins with you citizen. When asked about, or discussing an uncomfortable subject, and in this environment, what isn't an uncomfortable subject, simply speak the truth, political correctness be damned! It is a tall order I know, speaking truthfully which should be a natural thing, has become almost dangerous today, as those who look to stifle free speech are masters of PC speak. These are the types who will call you a racist if you disagree with the president, or will accuse you of suffering from some sort of phobia. One thing is always true about the left, they hate facts, and the truth that logical reasoning brings. When threatened by the truth, and name calling doesn't stop you, you can expect to be shouted down. So how then are we to speak honestly and respectfully to those so threatened by anyone who disagrees with them? Remain calm, no matter how emotional the subject, your goal is to debate your fellow citizen with facts, not emotions. Remember, it doesn't really matter how you or the other person feels about the subject, feelings only clouds logic, and the truth is always logical. Remember to present your case calmly and without yelling or raising your vote, because nine times out of ten, the person doing the screaming is usually wrong, and always the one who is an idiot. If a respectable debate is not possible with that person or group, leave, because you should never cast your pearls to swine. Its a biblical term that loosely translated means, Don't waste your time with idiots.
