SO MUCH TO DO AND SO LITTLE TIME

Well, dears, I have been posting away on various sites. It has become quite interesting here in "da parishes" in Southeast Louisiana in particular. Why the scandals are popping up all over the place. However, what is most interesting is the fact that so many people are now starting to take a stand by posting on the internet at the various sites of the news media. What is even more interesting is that some of these politicians have finally caught on to the movement that is growing. We expect this to become even more evident as it gets closer to election time. In addition contractors with the various agencies will be coming even more closely watched as time goes by and disclosures are made. The corruption of this area was finally made public by the storms called Katrina and Rita and the Gustave and Hugo. Yes, all of these storms will play a factor in the disclosure of facts that have laid hidden over the years.

Now is the time for the citizens of Louisiana to band together to overcome what has kept them from the prosperity that was there in good times. The national issues are also a disgrace and we expect disclosures to become evident about them also.

However, the major factor that is still a hindrance to these disclosures and to recovery from the storm is the issue of racism. Immediately the paid analysts start making predictions based on ancestry rather than qualifications. Very unfortunate and people will still fall for this age old battle and not seek the best of the best regardless of ancestry. On one post, we recently, read it stated that we are still fight the Civil War in Louisiana. That might be a correct analysis but what we are fighting is a question of ignorance and hate created by politicians who have taken advantage of people of varied ancestries over the years. How do we solve this War For The Vote?

1. Put aside the isssue of ancestry. This will be hard to do because the politicians will be shoving it into your face at every opportunity that they have.

2. Look carefully at the candidate's qualifications and not their promises.

3. Listen to what they can do, not what they promise to do.

4. Ask what is best for the city, the parish, etc.

5. Join forces with others to make demands on the candidates and be blunt and forceful. Put them behind the 8 ball and not your self.

6. Think about the good of all and not just yourself.

Let's start cleaning house and let's do a complete job. Let the law officials - the DA's, the Federal Attorneys of this state start the move to hold the political criminals liable for their actions. You have seen the tip of the iceberg. However, that iceberg cannot melt until ever last DAMN crook has been given his/her punishment.

It is up to us the ordinary citizen to start the movements. Now, let's do it.
