Houston Great Grandfather Charlie Eskridge Longs for Good Ole Days

I could not pass this one by. The overflow of ignorance and lies aside, even remove the personal hatred directed at
President Obama and just take what’s left. 

Fearing for Grandchildren

I read that the financial regulation bill has passed and will allow President Obama to set up another agency to control all financial institutions. First our government took over the auto industry, then the health care industry, it is effectively taking over the oil business by shutting it down and now it takes over the financial industry. Unless we wake up to the fact that Congress is letting Obama take over complete control of the country, I fear my grandchildren and great-grandchildren will never know the America that I grew up in and love.

Charlie Eskridge, Letters to the Editor, Houston Chronicle, Sunday, July 18th, 2010

What shouts out is this Texas Great Grandfather looks fondly back at Jim Crow segregation and polio as what was best about America, and which  have been stolen away from him, his grandchildren and great grandchildren by what he claims to be socialism (moderate regulation of the oil and financial industries). That is so beyond silly that we all know it’s really about "multiculturalism".

The same story behind the Tea Party and their false concern about debt and deficit. A trillion wasted on wars under Bush, a doubling of the debt? No problem.

Why is it so important for these people to forcibly arrest, sent to family jails (concentration camps)l and deport 13 million people?  You know what Ronald Reagan did when this came up in 1986? He gave 4 million illegal aliens Green Cards and everyone though it the right thing to to. What is different today?  Fox News  and Talk Radio which are based on the universal policy of DO THE WRONG THING.
