Real Men Get Their Hands Dirty

Obama called for 'hope and change,' but David Marsh's furniture-making business is the real deal. While Obama dumbed down America, Marsh built up his business, training a new generation to appreciate beauty and hard work, not welfare and handouts. Marsh is living proof that conservative values are the key to success.

When I bought my house 20 years ago, I fixated on the kitchen table. I wanted it, but the owners weren't selling. They directed me to a store in town, where I discovered it was a "David Marsh" original.

"It's a David Marsh.”

I loved the quirky design and, as a right-wing extremist, the half-dozen signatures carved into its underbelly. Reminded me of my time in a militia camp, where we all pitched in and signed our names on our guns. That table was like a well-loved gun, passed around and used by many.

Turns out the table needed refinishing after two decades. I contacted the store and, lo and behold, Marsh himself called me back and offered to pick up the table and take it to his shop. Now, that's customer service, not something you get from those godless socialists at IKEA.

We got to talking, and I learned Marsh was a fascinating guy. A former protégé of [Buckminster Fuller](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buckminster_ Fuller), he's got a mind like a steel trap. We talked for five hours about life, faith, and the importance of individualism and freedom.

Marsh has chosen a simple life, building furniture and passing on his knowledge to others. He's a true patriot, believing in the power of hard work and self-reliance. He even spoke Spanish with his Mexican partner, Paco, as they crafted together. Now, that's the American dream!

At 75, Marsh still gets up early to work in his shop. He's a master craftsman, and his pieces reflect his unique mana, a Polynesian word for the power and spirit imbued in an object. Marsh's furniture is like a well-oiled gun, smooth and powerful.

He shared a beautiful thought with me before we parted:

Faith comes out of awe — as when one notices that the shadow of a butterfly is identical to that of a falling leaf; how then can you not have faith that something cool is happening all around us all the time … like my mother use to say, ‘Thank God, whoever she is!’

So, my fellow right-wingers, let's remember to thank God for the simple things in life, like a well-crafted table and the freedom to bear arms. God bless America!
