My Biggest Complaint About The “Crises” Crisis

Well I did have two topics for this blog, but I had a creativity crisis so I’ll just have to stick to this one for now. I don’t know if any of you noticed, but lately it seems we have no problems anymore. This country is now problem-free. You may be calmly asking yourself “Keith, what the hell are you smoking?” The answer of course is nothing, but it is true. We no longer have problems… we have crises. Here’s the list and I checked it twice: credit, climate, financial, unemployment, energy, immigration, education, lending, traffic congestion, culture, liberties, the second ammendment, obesity, crime, drugs, depression, even baldness.

Now, take a good look at that list and tell me that we as a people haven’t lost our godamn minds. Is that how incredibly weak and puny we powerful American humans have become? This is sad on a level that well is in crisis mode. I’ve had my share of difficulties, but I never once said I was in the middle of a crisis. It was just another obstacle I had to overcome and of course I did. Instead of always panicking when things go awry let’s try something bold and fresh and way out there… HOW ABOUT WE TRY FIXING THESE DAMN THINGS SO THEY CAN’T BE CRISES ANYMORE?! Many of you may not be aware of how this happened so allow me to enlighten you yet again.

The media bills, or should I say ‘bulls’, these problems way too much scaring the unenlightened to death that the end is near. Then right after you hear the terrible news, as if it was right on cue, on comes Obama saying that he can fix every crisis facing America today. Coincidence? I think not. The media wants us to believe that we as a people can’t even wipe our own asses let alone fix the country, but Obama is some kind of superman that can wave a silly sparkly wand and cure us of all threats until the end of time itself arrives. These “crises” are not nearly as awful as they want us to believe. Yes it sucks right now, but as always we will overcome and surpass any test that comes our way and we don’t need Barrack Obama, John McCain, or anyone else to do it for us. It’s time to roll up the sleeves and get dirty America. We can do this… after we get rid of this crisis label and tell everyone in Washington and the media to SHUT THE HELL UP!!!!!
