A Reasonable Man.....

Several days ago, we heard from Senator Michael Bennett of Colorado in a video clip from his more lengthy speech given on the Senate floor  that day.  He was incensed by the support of Senator Ted Cruz for the President’s border wall and rose to speak after Cruz blamed the Democrats for not supporting border security.  It is quite revealing and refreshing to hear someone actually expressing rage at this whole farce.

I happened to search for Senator Bennett on Google because I didn’t remember his first name, and I was drawn to a link from the Colorado Independent Newspaper with the full video of his speech.

This is something you MUST watch!  Here is the link:

This man gives those, who will take the time to watch the 24 minute video, a clear history of what has led us to this point.  I urge all my Republican readers, who scream ‘bullshit’ every time they read what I write, to open their minds to listen to this sincere man who has been in the Senate for the past 10 years.  Perhaps it will give you a little more perspective on how the majority of Americans feel about where we find ourselves now in 2019 America.

Because the truth is, that the majority of Americans do not support what is going on. 

There is a powerful minority that has seized power in America and has bent the path of the country in their direction.

This speech by Bennett should be a call to action; a history lesson mandated in Civics classes around the country.  It is a clarion call that speaks to the failure of our country to answer the foreign challenges that we face in a turbulent world today.  It is a look at the emotional and intellectual spiraling whirlpool sucking us down into the abyss.

Whether you are a Republican or Democrat or Independent, to finally hear Bennett’s cry for intelligent action is hopeful because he finally vocalizes the angst that the country’s majority is feeling.  How we deal with it, is the most critical challenge we face as a country and society.  Bennett’s perception of what the mission of today’s  dominant political party is, is terribly concerning, and I advise all of you to think about what needs to be done by you, a single citizen, toward the salvation of our country.

Even if you are a die-hard, Fox mesmerized, hard-core, Democratic hating, devotee of Donald Trump, you need to watch this speech and actually listen to Senator Bennett’s plea for understanding and consideration of our present plight.
