My View

I have been saying for years that in my next life I want to come back as a co-host of The View. What better job is there than to come on TV for one hour per day, yenta about some topic of which I have no knowledge, and get paid megabucks. The incident that occurred last week with O'Reilly on The View demonstrates the foolishness of the PC morons who just cannot arrive at the conclusion that there is a worldwide Muslim problem. Every place they live they cannot live peacefully with their neighbors and the majority of conflicts on the planet involve Muslims. They cannot even live amongst themselves without belligerence. What other evidence do you need to come to the logical conclusion? To differentiate that it is only a Muslim extremist problem is an excuse to minimize the actual danger we confront.

I was born in 1963 to a father who escaped the onslaught of Hitler into Austria. I grew up in a period of relative calm after WWII. I was too young for the Vietnam war and most of my life there was no danger of war. I think I was lucky and I believe that for my children they will not have the comfort of a similar scenario. More countries are converting their oil into weapons and many of those countries are autocratic fanatical regimes. Is there any doubt at all that those weapons will be used at some point in the future?

It is sad to say but I think my children will live through very difficult times. Their freedoms will be curtailed and their lives' efforts will be to counter the forces of evil that are building. Survival will be their goal not individual pursuits of comfort, wealth, and pleasure. The complacency that my generation lived through was a fluke and reality is approaching rapidly.

My children and I discuss what they should do with their lives in terms of occupation. I hope that is the biggest challenge of their lives. Perhaps The View will be looking for a co-host but I think they are way to smart for those knuckleheads.
