60 reasons in 60 days to vote Gary Johnson President in 2012

Reason #50:  Gary Johnson is not lying.

I have heard it put this way about the politicians that are running for president from the two major parties: Pretty much, if their mouth is moving, you know they are lying. Almost with 100% certainty you can bank on the fact that President Obama, and Candidate Romney are lying when they are speaking.

Here's one example of how we know: when then candidate Obama was running for president in 2008, one of his campaign promises was to immediately bring our troops home. You can see for yourself in this YouTube video. The quote was immediately upon taking office, he would bring our troops home if they weren't home by the time he took office.

I was looking for an example of Romney lying but just type the words "Romney" and "lies" in YouTube and the result can be overwhelming. People the point is this. Why do Americans, the American electorate in general, everyone of voting age, continue to believe the crap that comes out of Republicans' and Democrats' mouths?! Why do voting age Americans continue to support political parties that so obviously lie to obtain office, shirk their responsibility, continue with the same failed policies, and continue the momentum of increasing the executive powers of the federal government?!

I will never understand. In contrast, Gary Johnson will come in and do what he says he will do. It's as easy as that. If we would all just vote against the two party oligarchs just this one time. America could be great again.

China and Egypt

Apparently honor, the dignity of human right, , are all for sale. I've been watching it happen in our own country with not a little concern, bordering on disgust actually, for the last...oh twenty years I guess. The United States of America: bastion of freedom, of democracy, of human rights, offering them all up for sale.

There was a time, not long ago, when we stood up to other countries in defense of the dignity and rights that human life imparts on every living being. Am I just being over-sentimental, unrealistic, idealistic, and just imagining that we once stood on the side of revolutions like the one in Tahrir Square? Maybe I was too young to remember correctly, did we stand up against the Chinese on the side of the revolution at Tiananmen Square? Or had we sold them our honor, our dignity, our stance on human rights by 1989 already?

$45 billion worth of Boeing airplanes is apparently the price this time around for looking the other way.

Quoting The Independent, "US politicians, who will host Hu [Jintao] tomorrow, are impatient for results about China's economic policies. A meager outcome at the summit could raise congressional pressure on Beijing over the trade deficit and the way it manages the yuan. A group of 84 politicians urged Obama in a letter today to tell Hu that "America's patience is near an end" over China's failure to play by trade rules." No one seemed that impatient, or no politician seemed to urge China, concerning human rights.

And now Egypt. Where stand ye America?
