Peter on I Have A Dream at 50

The dream, is just that...a dream, it can never be achieved without serious kick in the collective slacks!

When a 400 pound crippled man with a cane gets scoffed at while walking down the chip aisle of the local store or...

When a single mother gets treated like a destroyer of the American Dream because she doesn't have a father in her children's' lives (Like his participation wasn't desired?!)

Like a case of the shits; some things are just out of our control.

The dream will never be realized when someone working two jobs and who still needs food stamps to make ends meet are treated like second class citizens.

'If you don't work, you don't eat' - well, maybe someone should tell that to Congress! A person's content of character is easy to scold when you are looking down from your ivory towers wondering why they feel jilted. It's easy to engage in real 'class warfare' as you sit behind your cameras and microphones calling them 'lazy,' and 'victims' while collecting a very nice paycheck. Showing empathy for your fellow man is not Un-American in fact, it is the most American, most godly thing one can do. All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God; Love they neighbor as you would love yourself. Don't do it for your political party, do it because it's right. Do it for Christ, follow His example and simply: Do. What. Is. Right!
