It's too late, Mr O. The time for you to talk like that was 2 years ago, as the hysteria was just getting going. Instead you let it engulf this country as you remained in your ivory white tower, hoping everything would work out. As you can now see, it didn't.
Timing? No. If President Obama had spoken out two tears ago, the Dirty Digger's minions would have accused him of being unable to "take the heat". The hysteria is due to the skanky hoes of FoxNews and their Tea Party mates.
It's time for Americans to stand by the president they elected.
How? For a start, watch FoxNews. Watch the commercials. Boycott the products. Send them mail to let them know.
He stood by and let them get away with it. He compromised and got nothing in return. He begged when he should have demanded. He let things get to this point.
Yes, Fox and Rush and the GOP and the Tea Party Jihadists would have screamed. But look at what happened -- they screamed, anyway, and their screams are only louder because they see Obama is weak. He broke the Democratic party in half for them, and now people are being killed. And the best he can say in return is, "Can't we all just get along?"
Unless one says goodbye to what one loves, and unless one travels to completely new territories, one can expect merely a long wearing away of oneself. - Jean Dubuffet

.My call for a spiritual revolution is thus not a call for a religious revolution. Nor is it a reference to a way of life that is somehow other-worldly, still less to something magical or mysterious. Rather, it is a call for a radical re-orientation away from our habitual preoccupation with self towards concern for the wider community of beings with whom we are connected, and for conduct which recognizes others' interests alongside our own.

Great men are they who see that the spiritual is stronger than any material force, that thoughts rule the world. -- Ralph Waldo Emerson

Fighting Against Neglect
. .
Our problems, both those we experience externally such as wars, crime and violence and those we experience internally as emotional and psychological suffering will not be solved until we address this underlying neglect of our inner dimension. That is why the great movements of the last hundred years and more--democracy, liberalism, socialism, and Communism--have all failed to deliver the universal benefits they were supposed to provide, despite many wonderful ideas. A revolution is called for, certainly, but not a political, an economic, or a technical revolution. We have had enough experience of these during the past century to know that a purely external approach will not suffice. What I propose is a spiritual revolution.
In a dying civilization, political prestige is the reward not of the shrewdest diagnostician but of the man with the best bedside manner. It is the decoration conferred on mediocrity by ignorance.
