Character and Values --Who do you believe will represent your ideals?
Next, let’s discuss character representation and family values. If you followed the Republican Convention, you would have gotten somewhat acquainted with Governor Romney’s and Paul Ryan’s families. To me, they truly represent families with wholesome traditional values and endear ambitions like the pursuit of the American dream and being the best that you can be…the kind of families most people would be comfortable with within their presence. To me they were inspirational. In general, the Obama family portray a respectable family unit. The big difference that I see when contrasted to the Romney and Ryan families is President and Mrs Obama's past association with people of tainted character. People who are opposed to the American way of life and made it clear that they did NOT like America. Also, the Obamas continue to rely heavily on rubbing shoulders with Hollywood celebrities and TV talk show hosts. Many of their fundraisers are in Hollywood and with other entertainment personalities. I personally don’t believe that mainstream Hollywood represents mainstream society or mainstream values.

WRONG WAY: The subtle enemy!
I can’t neglect “liberalism” and its implications. My interpretation of liberalism is that people do their "own thing" with little or no restraints and without regard, consideration, and respect for the dignity and rights of others. Instead of consequences for poor judgment and bad behavior, their is pursuit of concessions in order to hopefully dodge conflict or to support a personal agenda. Unrestricted abortion and the proliferation of pornography are good examples of this philosophy.
From my career and experience as a public school teacher, liberalism doesn’t work in the classroom; it doesn’t work at home; it doesn’t work for society in general; and it doesn’t work in dealing with rouge nations and foreign affairs. Apparently, Obama thinks it does! RESEARCH, RELATE, AND THINK
WRONG WAY: Have you considered the consequences of an Obama re-election?
Likely outcomes if Obama is re-elected: First, many liberal federal judges and Supreme Court justices will be appointed. They have the ultimate power to influence our legal system and interpret the Constitution to fit their philosophies. They are almost impossible to remove from office since they are appointed—not elected.
Second, Obama-Care will be fully implemented by 2014; un-doing it will probably be cost prohibitive.
Third, there is a good chance that our 2nd Amendment rights (right to bear arms) will be in jeopardy. President Obama and Secretary of Clinton both support a UN ban on gun ownership.
Fourth, the Protection of Marriage Amendment will be ignored or declared unconstitutional. We will probably have a new amendment promoting and protecting gay marriage—there are bills relating to this issue pending in both houses of Congress right now. Christian values will be rebuked and subject to criticism.
Fifth, our borders will not be secured. It will be worse than the current situation. The united States will be flooded with more illegals than imaginable. States will have their hands tied by the Administration’s Dept. of Justice regarding border control.
Sixth, our leadership will still be making excuses for terrorists destroying public property and killing innocent U.S. citizens. Our military will be trimmed significantly and nuclear-anti-missiles will be vastly reduced to the point that we will be highly vulnerable to a major nuclear and non-nuclear attacks.
Seventh, we will probably have even more people on public assistance and other entitlements; this segment of our society will surely secure more future support for liberal politicians—mainly Democrats progressive liberals. RESEARCH, RELATE, AND THINK
WRONG WAY: Is the economy all that needs “resurrection”?
Is our biggest downfall in the nation really the economy? There is no doubt that the U.S. economy is still stagnant, anemic, dismal, and getting worse. But, is a manifestation of our main-stream culture rather than just failed monetary and business decisions? It is also a reflection of over-regulation by the current and past administrations.
Do you know who really opened the door for the failed housing market resulting in an incredible increase in foreclosures and bankruptcies the past six years? It wasn’t the Bush administration, although the main-stream media and the current administration probably wouldn’t dare tell you “the whole story”. In the late 90’s there was an executive order initiated relaxing the requirements to get home loans for many people that would have been considered extremely high risk under prior regulations. Now, who was running our country at that time? Bill Clinton!
However, I really think the main downfall in our society and the economy stems from turning our back on the Constitution, our Founding Fathers, and GOD! I believe that GOD is slowly removing his hand of protection over our country because liberal progressives seek to remove the name God, the Bible, and the Ten Commandments from our main-stream culture — especially at all public grounds and institutions.
Do you know anything about the spiritual persuasion of the majority of our Founding Fathers and how their beliefs are reflected in our U.S. Constitution? You see, a lot of the folks who support the life-styles and values contrary to the traditional values of decency, virtue, honor, and patriotism are seeking to neutralize our history and its Christian influence. They do so so as to perpetuate their ideas, philosophies, and progressivism. And, the Democrat Party and “their” liberal media buddies are their “lapdogs.” How much more deterioration of our culture and traditional Christian values will God tolerate before he completely removes his hand from our Nation. If you are a committed atheist, or extremely naïve, I’m sure you are saying “hogwash.” But, to those of you that acknowledge that God as a reality, it might be well for you to reflect on my words.

CONCLUDING COMMENT - WRONG WAY ON A ONE-WAY STREET!
Do you really want an “entitlement society”, which seems to be the current direction under the Obama Administration? Or do you prefer a "free society" where you have the opportunity to follow your dreams, set goals, create, and hopefully achieve success? Our country under our Constitution and Bill of Rights enables us the FREEDOM to do those things, plus the freedom to express ourselves! We need to respect and protect these gifts and principles provided by our founding fathers by voting wisely for the best leadership to preserve our rights and defend our country.
Thank you for taking the time to read my rather lengthy opinions shared in the five series of this Open letters to the editor. I appreciate the ARRA News Service for sharing them with its readership. Unfortunately, when someone shares their views on such critical and sensitive issues some recipients will be ruffled, but my ultimate purpose is to inspire patriotism, protect our heritage, and promote the enthusiasm to vote (and to do so wisely).
God Bless! I am Buck Angler and I endorse these opinions.
