Tolerance Centers

“Anything that helps people get over their ignorance about other people's cultures and religions is a good thing. If Islamic Centers of tolerance even in New York with its many cultures and religions will create more understanding which will help keep the peace, but other Islamic centers of tolerance are need throughout our nation maybe that would prevent another 9/11 and get us out of these wars on Islam (if our war machine will let that happen)”
The fact that Americans need more tolerance and understanding does not mean others do not need it as well. The seeds of 9/11 go back to the fall of the Ottoman Empire after World War I when the British and Americans split up the Middle East into countries they can control. (They thought so anyway). It may not seem like it but the human race has improved over time and will continue to do so. There are around 600,000 Muslims in the New York area with one of their leaders or Imam is Abdul Rauf who according the a New York Times article in the Sunday August 22nd 2010 paper has been trying his whole life to make a peaceful bridge between Americans and Islam. Abdul has been speaking around the Middle east to Muslims on how they should responded to American and European attacks on Islam like the Swiss ban on minarets saying “Why not have a mosque that looks Swiss?” Islam in America must take into account American values, but so must American take into account Islamic Values. True Islamic law or Sharing Law is not unlike Christian or Jewish Law all of which have been radicalized its fundamentalist groups like the Taliban, right wing Christian or Jewish Groups. Maybe it is wishful thinking that Tolerance Centers will make people take another look at the teachings of their own faith.

Tea party thinking Obama is a Marxist

No Barack Obama is not a Marxist in fact Marx himself said that he was no Marxist and did not believe in revolutionary change, but that someday Capitalism will give way to Socialism. Capitalism failed in 1873, 1929, 1987, 2008 and will fail again it is not the government that failed, but the business community. The Chinese workers started way behind the American workers, but are catching up. Presidents or governments don’t matter as much as Tea Partiers think it is which people are interested to investing in the future.
What do the more serious Tea partiers (actually Fiscal Conservatives) never mind the racists and anti-government kool aid drinkers, lower Taxes and cut spending, Ok sounds good, but what spending do we cut your Police, Fireman, Hospitals, they would say Hell NO! How about cutting food stamps programs for the poor then it would be OK. The fact is everyone like socialist programs that benefit them or their families, but not someone else.
Fiscal Conservatives do have a point that we must live within a budget and all programs have to be within that budget. Just like your household budget nations must set priorities with necessaries coming first like health, Education, infrastructure (electrical Grid, high speed railroads, roadways and bridges) and if the is any money left the War Department. The American Taxpayer can no longer afford to police the world a international force paid for by the taxpayers of all nations is what is needed.
