America Awakes

Today we awake to the news that our lawmakers are furious to learn that Olympic unifoms, as tasteful as they appeared, were manufactured in China. What a surprise! Many of the things I purchase today are made in China and other parts of the world. They are "willing" to work. Somebody has got to do it when we fail to produce our own for whatever the reason. It was noted that on a news clip, Senate Majority Leader, Harry Reid, D-Nevada, took particular exception to the out-sourced tailoring. Maybe we need to wake up and smell the roses, so to speak. This is not a recent behaviour, it has been going on in our country for a long time. If you want something done, you must do it yourself, an attitude which has fallen by the wayside, showed the determination of past generations to succeed, no matter what it took. Now, its, for the most part, let someone else do it. They can and they do. I for one, still dream of a day when I will wake up to find that our lawmakers are concerned with their jobs, like having a budget, for example. Lets roll up our sleeves and work together for a better America. All we need be is responsible for doing our "own" job. The question is: What did we accomplish today, or are we waiting for someone else to do the job for us? Especially, when we are elected to fill the job of the lawmaking of this great country. Wake up, America. The world is watching. Are we just beginning to open our eyes? When you do open them, do you like what your seeing? If not, let us work to change first of all our attitudes.
