Today's MOZEN: Failure Is Not An Option

F LoBuono

Hiding you head in the sand doesn't work - that usually just winds up exposing your ass anyway. Ignoring it and hoping that it goes away isn't very effective, either -that's just kicking the can down the road. I've tried taking the happy idiot route to forget. I have the idiot part down just fine but, I need some work with the happiness.

No. Quitting is not the answer

The only way to deal with the endless parade of exaggeration, bloviation, disinformation, fabrication, defamation, vilification, calumniation, distortion, distraction, evasion, fraudulence, hyperbole, prevarication, and downright LYING on the part of this Administration is to look them right in the eye and spit - figuratively, of course!

Our Country, at least as we have known it, is being fundamentally changed by an Administration that has a particular brand of so-called Patriotism that pledges America First. This catchy slogan may appear attractive at first glance but, upon further analysis leads to a much darker truth. And, that is; at what cost? Will we sell our souls to put aside the great American ideals such as compassion, inclusion, altruism, and a deep, inherent sense of fairness and justice to a man who will stop at NOTHING to get his way - simply so that he can say "we won". Won? Won what?

No, my friends, it is too important to quit now.

The legendary Mission Control Commander for the Apollo 13 lunar launch, Gene Kranz, in an effort to rally his team to save the mission and its astronauts, said it best: FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION.

There is no question that many of us are frustrated to the point of distraction. Most of us are tired of the endless bickering that has pitted neighbor against neighbor and friend against friend. I know I have lost a few of both through this argument. Still, this is a war of sorts - for the hearts and minds of the American People. How are we to see our way through this dilemma? Well, there are ways: Involvement. Take a stand. Write. Scream. Vote. BE HEARD!
