So the Presidential campaign is in full swing. I know. It sounds insane. Its way to early. But here we are. Tomorrow night starts the first presidential debate. This is the first chance for 17 members of the Republican party to make their statement.
Right now, Donald Trump leads the pack. Why? I've been reading twitter a lot lately, and what I've found is that people like him because they are sick of DC politics and so is he. But anger makes a bad president. He has many things that he is against, but he isn't for anything.
So what do we need in a President?
#1 Executive experience. We need someone who was a governor. Governors understand how the presidency should work, because they've served as the executive as a state. The problem with President Obama (and by association a Rand Paul, Teddy Cruz, and Hillary Clinton) is that those that come out of the Senate don't know how the Presidency should work. Most of them want to serve as President by proposing and signing laws (i.e. ObamaCare). They don't understand what it means to be Commander in Chief. They don't understand the duties of the President. They just want to propose laws. In truth, they think they want to be Speaker of the House. Therefore, we need a person who has executive experience. That should rule out much of the field right there for reasonable people.
#2 A Conservative. There are several reasons why we lost the last two elections. There was major fraud, unnecessary though it may be. There was racial motivations (many people voted not on the content of his character, but on the color of his skin). But mostly, it was due to the Republican primaries. For some reason, Republican obeyed the liberal media in voting for who the liberal media thought was "electable." In other words, with McCain and Romney, they voted for the most liberal Republicans they can find. It seems that the same is going on this year. Trump is liberal. He donated to Hillary Clinton's last presidential campaign. He's voted for more Democrats than Republicans. He's a liberal. I am honestly convinced that he's running a fake campaign to try to get Hillary elected. But I feel the same with Jeb Bush and Chris Christi and a few others. We need a conservative. Think about it. The most one-sided election of all time (1984, Reagan vs. Mondale) was where we put up a true conservative.
#3 Intimidating. The world is in chaos. Putin is restarting the Cold War. ISIS is rolling over much of the Middle East. Iran has a path to the Nuke. Our border is porous. Again, I hate to compare everything to Reagan, but he ended the Cold War by staring down the USSR and making them blink. Some want to pull back from the world. But as we all know, "Evil triumphs when good men do nothing." Rand Paul believes that if we give Iran a nuke, the MAD policy will keep them in check. Mutually Assured Destruction is not a great policy for those who blow themselves up in order to receive seventy virgins. That's just not good foreign policy. And there is no reason why we are the only country in the world who are not able to secure our borders. And yes, note the "s." I mean Canada too. I would also include in that we need to change our legal immigration policy. We need more immigrants from Mexico, and from China and the Middle East.
#4 Financially sound. President Bush really wasn't financially conservative. True, he ran two wars, but he wasn't that financially good to begin with. Trump declared bankruptcy four times. Our dollars are worth much less today than they used to be. Our debt is insane. President Obama took out more debt than every President before him. We don't need someone who declared bankruptcy. We need someone who doesn't believe in debt.

The news stories you haven't heard but need to.
So, its been a few months. I've gotten sick of politics. But I need to tackle a few things. So let's get started.
Trump is a bad candidate.
Trump is leading the polls and settling in as the conservative candidate. Only he isn't. He donated money to Hillary's last presidential campaign. He's anti gun. The only thing he cares about is immigration and his hair. Moreover, he's an ass. He's called McCain and all other POWs "not war heroes." This is a man who has a war again financial solvency. He's called Rick Perry stupid because he wears glasses. He also has banned newspapers from his events for writing bad things about him. That's just what we need. Four more years of an Obama-style media demagoguery.
Planned Parenthood is still evil.
Planned Parenthood had a video leaked of them selling of baby body parts, while they lady doing it joked and smiled. So they receive government assistance for helping women. Only they butcher the babies for fun. And for profit. Only they're supposed to be non-profit. And they receive govt assistance. Then they turn around and donate it to the democrat party. Kind of like how Susan G. Komen requires everyone to donate to them, then they donate more money to the DNC than they do to breast cancer.
All life does not matter.
Martin O'Malley, speaking to democrat voters, was booed off the stage for saying "Black lives matter. All lives matter." He was later forced to apologize. Because all lives do not matter. Only the lives of black men shot by white cops. Black men shot by black men don't matter. Marines shot my Muslim extremists don't matter. Babies don't matter. Jews don't matter. Republicans don't matter. Only lives of those who can be used to manipulate the vote matter. So he apologized. Good job, you spineless turd.

Rand Paul
So Rand Paul has made his run official. The Senator from Kentucky is going to run for president. Is he who we want in the White House?
At least he's not Hillary Clinton or Jeb Bush.
But seriously, I want to take a moment to express my thoughts on him.
Pros: He's from Kentucky, not New York or Florida, so he deals with real people. And that's good. Kentucky is a good, solid state with good values. It's a part of the heart of this country.
He's a fiscal conservative, which Washington desperately needs.
He speaks in a way that people can relate to. And for a Washington politician, that's good.
He's done a good job in the Senate. I like him personally and have followed his career since his election.
Cons: First and foremost, let me say what I don't like about Hillary, President Obama, McCain, Teddy Cruz, and Rand Paul. Plus a list of others that haven't thrown in officially yet. They come from Congress. Presidents that come from Congress think that their main job is Chief Legislator, not Commander and Chief. Take President Obama, for example. His signature acts as President are ObamaCare, and going around Congress to do whatever the crap he wants to. But he's been a lousy executive. He doesn't seem to grasp the roll of the three branches. Reality is, President Obama thinks he's the Speaker of the House. That's the same problem so many presidents have had. And that's a big strike against anyone to me, no matter the party.
Second, and this is major, is his foreign policy. He shares his dad's foreign policies. First and foremost in this is that we should just give Iran a nuke. Ron Paul, and so it seems Rand, share the same belief. To understand this, you must understand the 1980s. In that time (and throughout the Cold War), the global policy was MAD. MAD, was truly mad, nuts, crazy. MAD stands for Mutually Assured Destruction. It was the idea that the Soviets and Americans would not launch nukes, because both sides would fire everything, completely killing both.
But will mutually assured destruction restrict people who strap bombs to themselves and blow themselves up really fear being blown up? NO! That's absurd! This is insane!
Third, he's pro-legalization of pot and prostitution. Not exactly something that the country is ready for. He seems to ride both extremes, while alienating the middle. That's not great.
I'm still waiting for Scott Walker.
At least he's not Hillary Clinton or Jeb Bush.

Hypocrisy Run Amok
Ok, so I know I've been doing more tweeting then blogging lately, but I can't fit this is 140 characters or less. So here goes.
Liberal hypocrisy has been driving me nuts lately. Let's go with a few examples.
#1 "Republicans are traitors." Why? Because they contacted Iran to explain the US Constitution. So the White House says they are traitors for contacting an enemy government. Well, I guess that makes Obama a traitor too then, because he contacted them first. I'm not at all serious about this. President Regan contacted the Kremlin to negotiate peace. The difference is that Regan wanted to reduce nuclear arms, not give them to a nation that has sworn to destroy Israel and the United States. The USSR was collapsing. Iran is seeking to expand.
But that's neither here nor there. Point been, you don't get to call them out for doing what you have done. Especially when you are trying to violate the law to make a treaty without Congress's approval. (By the way, assuming that Mutually Assured Destruction is going to dissuade suicide bombers is lunacy).
#2 "We can't influence another countries' election." We shouldn't. Sure. Give them freedom. Makes sense. Except that Obama said that we were doing this by congress asking Bibi Netanyahu to speak on the dangers of Iran so they could make an informed decision on said treaty. Then the White House, via the State Department, basically embezzled money to fund Bibi's opponent and sent one of the President's campaign advisers to work for him.
Now wait a sec, you criticized Republicans for allowing Bibi to speak, saying that it might influence the election, when you were outright funding and campaigning for his opponent? Who is trying to influence the election?
#3 "The greatest threat to peace." The mainstream media lost their tiny little brains when Netanyahu was elected, and soundly so. They called him personally the greatest threat to peace.
WHAT???!!!!! Has he lobbed rockets into civilian neighborhoods? No, that was Hezbollah. Has he kidnapped and sold girls to be raped? No, that was Boko Haram. Has he burned Muslims alive? No, that was Isis. Has he wholesale slaughtered Christians? No, Isis again. Has he threatened to wipe other nations and other religions from the face of the earth? No, that was Iran. How is Bibi the greatest threat to peace?
Because President Obama believes that Israel is a threat to peace by existing. If Israel and the Republican party would just die, then he could fix everything. Wouldn't that be nice?

SOTU 2015
So, here's what President Obama said last night.
Yeah, that's it. The only thing he didn't say was "White people suck." I'm not really sure why not.
You know Einstein's definition of insanity? Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. President Obama has proved that his policies don't work. Said so in the midterms, also adding that people didn't like the policies. But he is so damned arrogant he doesn't care. He is the "do nothing" president. That's what he set up last night. He is going to do nothing for the next two years.
He'd rather burn the union to the ground than to do anything good or healthy for those he is supposed to be responsible for. His pride is leading us to our fall.
The Union is good, despite my best efforts. So here's what I'm going to do. I'm going to veto anything congress passes, then demand that they work with me.
Divide the Union! Blame the Rich! Let the Terrorists win! Be a pussy on foreign affairs, and a beast to deal with at home! Peace out Bitches!
Yeah, that's it. The only thing he didn't say was "White people suck." I'm not really sure why not.

New England Cheaters OR What should happen for the Super Bowl
Tom Brady is a chump.
There, I said it. I'm famous for saying it. It's kinda my thing, you know?
But now, the Pats have been caught cheating against my Colts.
There are a few things that bother me MOST about this. For one, the Colts never win in Foxborough. Probably not in 20 years, maybe my lifetime. The Patriots didn't NEED to cheat to win. We fell apart this season, for those of you that didn't watch us. So why cheat? We shot off everything we had against the Broncos. We had nothing left, which we proved. SO WHY CHEAT?
Here's the second thing: this isn't the first time. This has been the fourth time they've been caught in the Belichick-Brady era. In the 2001 Super Bowl, the one that started the franchise, assistant coaches attended the Rams practice, to learn their play calls and what plays they were likely to use in the game. They won specifically because of their cheating.
Then there was spy-gate, where they tuned their radios to the Jets' play caller frequencies, and listened in. Again, the Jets were one of the worst teams that year. They didn't NEED to cheat to win.
Then there was spy-gate 2, where the videoed the hand-signals of the other team's (I want to say Miami's) defensive play caller. Very much cheating, and again not NEEDED to win.
Now, they cheated against the Colts. And what's going to happen? Nothing. Why? Because the NFL loves the Friggin Patriots. Because they're the Patriots, they don't get in trouble.
Belichick claims that every team cheats. Really? They how come you're the only one who gets caught?
Well, there is one exception: Sean Peyton. His team tried to injure people, unsportsman like and a strict "no-no." So the NFL suspended him from coaching for eight games.
So how about, instead of doing nothing, instead of a slap on the wrist. Suspend Bill "The Hoodie" Belichick for the Super Bowl. And next season.
If this was a one-time issue, this would be an overreaction. But it's not. It's a culture of cheating. A fine or some draft picks aren't going to cut it. They don't mind paying to win. And that's the problem.
Maybe the Chump and the Hoodie need to rethink this whole thing. Maybe they should watch this.

NFL 14 week 1-3 synopsis
So it's been a while. Thanks for all who watched my live-tweeting during the Colts-Eagles game.
So let's dive into this. Week one the Colts got themselves destroyed at Denver by Peyton Manning. Manning, was, well... Manning. Denver's defense was great. We really didn't play that bad. Denver was just that good. I predicted it. We embarrassed them last year in Indy. They were embarrassed in the Super Bowl. They were going to play for a vengeance, and they did.
Week 2 was a different issue. We were better than the Eagles. We played better. We should have won. The only thing is, we can't beat the Eagles and the Zebras. The refs cheated us. They got one TD off of a pass interference call that was crap. Their receiver grabbed a fist full of jersey of our cornerback, and that was somehow pass interference on our Corner. That was crap. Then they got an "interception," that wasn't, and should have been pulled back for a penalty. We stopped them, and they gave another bad call that kept that drive alive and gave them another TD. So their "last second game winning FG" should have never happened. They should have been down 14. It was crap, and that game should not count. Man I hate the Eagles.
This week, we did well. Ok, that's an understatement. We had 30 points and Luck had 300 yards of offense in the first half. We spanked Jacksonville, plain and simple.
Rest of the League:
Tom Brady is a chump.
RG III got hurt.
Tony Romo is the worst QB in the NFL this year.
In other words, not much has changed from the last couple of years.
