State of the Union Address Jan. 24, 2007

President Bush completed his State of the Union address about one hour ago.

Uninspiring is my first reaction to the speech. The President looked and spoke in rather subdued terms. I didn’t hear anything new that has even a remote chance of inspiring the American public to give the President additional support for his “surge” in Iraq or for his domestic policies.

The President is trying his best to drum up support for a failed policy in Iraq which has overshadowed everything else in his presidency. His new Iraq plan is little more than a desperate attempt to shift blame for the mess in Iraq to the Iraqis. Bush has destablised the entire region and will not even take responsibility for his actions.

One can only hope that America somehow gets through the next two years without an increasing disaster in Iraq but I wouldn’t count on it.

As bad as the situation is the likelihood is that under President Bush’s leadership it will only get worst.

Fear – “Neither a man nor a crowd nor a nation can be trusted to act humanely or to think sanely under the influence of a great fear.” – Bertrand Russell

Fear – “The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown”-H.P. Lovecraft

Fear – “Only when we are no longer afraid do we begin to live.” – Dorothy Thompson

Fear is a powerful emotion. It is hard wired into every human being as a defense mechanism. Early man when confronted with a head to head encounter with a frighteningly large hungry animal experienced a healthy fear that immediately injected large qualities of adrenalin into his system to assist in a hasty flight.

Or if flight was not possible the adrenalin rush increased his ability to fight if he must. Of course, fighting a large hungry animal is probably a bad idea that will ruin ones day. But at times that’s life. You don’t have a choice. You must fight when you would rather flee. You must be courageous and stand up to your fear and foe.

Everyone has a fear of some sort. Fear of the dark. Fear of heights. Fear of water that’s deeper then you are tall. Fear of snakes. Fear of fire. Fear of death. Fear of strangers, especially if they are a different color than yourself or of a different culture. And for some poor souls a fear of living their lives to the fullest. Safety first. Take no chances. Stay put. Don’t venture out.
