What we need in a President

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.

SOTU 2015

So, here's what President Obama said last night. 

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. 

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.

I told you so

Yesterday, I wrote about how Dems have a racist streak in them as a general party principle.

Today, I write because they decided to back me up.

Sec. of State John Kerry, (who according to IQ test is the dumbest presidential candidate of my lifetime) went out and made anti-Semitic comments.  He compared being at war against Muslim extremists to apartheid.  South Africa was a completely different situation.  In South Africa, white oppressed blacks.  In Israel, it is the terrorists doing the oppression of both Palestinian and Israeli.  They are seeking to exterminate everyone from the face of the earth, like Americans, white people, Israelis, even other Muslims.  Israel can and should defend themselves from terrorists.  We should support our allies, not our enemies.  But that would be a novel concept in this White House. 

A federal judge struck down Wisconsin's voter ID laws, again believe minorities incapable of getting a photo ID.  Again, leftists believe minorities are too stupid to get a drivers license or other form of ID.  Told you so!

Then Representative Bennie Thomas of Mississippi went further.  He went with the pat "Republicans are racist" calling conservative Clarence Thomas an "Uncle Tom."  Thomas, and many of his party, believe that Justice Thomas, Col. Allen West, and others are "traitors to their race" (similar language used by Hitler to motivate white supremacist) for stepping out of party lines.  Free thought is outlawed in favor of the willing enslavement to those who historically fought against their rights. 

He also said that no president has ever been treated as badly as Obama.  Really?  W. Bush was regularly burned in effigy.  Clinton was impeached.  Regan, Kennedy, and Lincoln were shot!  Recent polling says that 8% of Americans "believe that ObamaCare is working."  EIGHT PERCENT!  Opposing ObamaCare doesn't make you racist.  It makes you right!

LA Racist

So, I'm sure you've heard on the news by now about the owner of the LA Clippers telling his former mistress that she's not allowed to bring black people to his games.  He doesn't want "them" at his games.

In the illegally recorded conversation, the ex-mistress asked Mr. Sterling about his black players.  He said, "I provide food and clothes and jobs and games for them.

Does that sound familiar?  It should.  He basically looked at his players and said, "You didn't build that."

That's right!  Sterling is a DEMOCRAT!  Despite the fact that the Dems always point to conservatives and cry "Racist!  Racist!" they have people over and over again with racist issues in their own party.  Like when they claimed that voter ID laws discriminate against African Americans because "they're too stupid to pass the driver's test."  That was an interview with CNN.

Sterling also has received not one, but TWO NAACP lifetime achievement awards.  He donated to them and to the Obama campaign.  Why would a racist do this?

It's the secret democratic belief that non-whites are inferior, therefore they need a boost up from the white guys.  That's the reason behind the things that they do.  They cry out "racist" to anyone who doesn't do that, because they can't conceive of a white person not being like them.  They use cash and legislation to mask what they actually believe.  They can't even imagine the words of the constitution saying "All men are created equal."

Sterling, Reid, Biden, and many others in the democrat party believe this.  So do Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton.  They quote Dr. King and spit on his memory.  This isn't an isolated incident, but par for the course for the Democrat party.  Again, remember it was Democrats who opposed Abolition and it was Democrats who beat Dr. King and others.

I can't stand racism.  And I hate the fact that they are getting away with it.

Double downs and blaspheming

I hope everyone had a nice Easter.  Easter, in case you didn't know, is the holiday where Christians celebrate the fact that Jesus rose from the dead after dying for our sins.  He proved he was the son of God, and provided forgiveness for sins and hope of eternal life.

Unless you're Al Sharpton.  Al (I'm particularly using his first name as a sign of disrespect) has been up to no good.  After admitting to being an informant (which could be considered a violation of the "confessional" privacy, much like doctor-patient or lawyer-client confidentiality).  He was forced to be an informant because he tried to purchase crack, like an idiot.

But now he decided to add another charge to his file: blasphemy.  He said that President Obama "has been crucified and resurrected."  I know that some claim Obama is the new Messiah, but this is going a little too far, don't you think?  Especially on Easter?  Especially from a "reverend"?

I don't think Al Sharpton is worthy of reverence.



In the meantime, Harry Reid didn't want Al to have all of the attention.  He decided to call the ranchers and anyone that agreed with them "Domestic terrorists."  He repeated it a few time just make sure no one thought that he had spoken out of turn.

Nidal Hassan, who yelled "Allah Ackbar" before killing 13 people and injuring more than 30 more, was called "workplace violence," despite using the same cry suicide bombers use moments before their attacks. 

Mass murder?  That's sad.  Wanting your cows back?  Threat to our nation!  We should stomp out anyone who likes beef immediately!

Threats from Harry Reid

Did you hear that Harry Reid is threatening people?  It's true. 

If you've not been watching the news, you may have missed the massive problem in Nevada, where the Federal Government walked in and seized this man's cattle off of disputed lands.  The state of Nevada claims the land, and so does the federal government.  So the federal government seized the cattle.

The federal government seized this guy's cattle, then sent in snipers and others which escalated tension.  This led other people (my guess is Arian militia) went in, trying to get things violent, which caused the ranchers to be stuck between two groups.  They ended up negotiating a peaceful settlement, getting back their cows.  It seemed over.

Then Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid opened his stupid mouth.

Reid said, "We can't have an American people that violate the law and then just walk away from it.  So it's not over."

He said this shortly after getting in trouble for embezzling money from his campaign to send to his relatives.  How about we go after him for that?

What about people who illegally come into this country and pay no taxes?  He's for amnesty.  So let's go after a man for grazing cattle, but not illegals.

What about drugs?  It is a federal crime to sell marijuana.  But they're making medical marijuana legal in several states and the DC area.  We can't have an American people that violate the law and walk away from it.

What about gun running?  Let's go after Eric Holder for Fast and Furious.

Illegal IRS targeting of conservatives?  We better go after the IRS for that.  Also, there was a story that said that during audits, IRS agents wore Obama campaign buttons in 2012, and told people who they had to vote for.

Election fraud?  Voter intimidation?  Let's go after SEIU, ACORN, and the New Black Panthers.  Of even the guy that they voted for.

Hm... When you put it that way, it sounds like there are a lot bigger problems than cows.  Let's start with those.

What? Who's racist? A history lesson

So, several Democrats made statements about racism.  Congressman Israel said that he believed "a significant portion of the Republican base" is racists. 

Let's do a little history lesson here.  Abraham Lincoln, signer of the Emancipation Proclamation, was a Republican.  Those that went against him?  Democrats.

When Dr. King was going around, Republican officials stood with them.  The people turning fire hoses on the crowds and arresting them?  Democrat governors.

Republicans believe that all men were created equal.  Democrats believe things like "Voter ID laws are discriminatory.  Minorities are incapable of passing the exam to get a driver's license, so they will be excluded."  They also believe that minorities are incapable of achieving greatness in our country without a boost from the white man.

The only time I ever threatened a man with violence was when a friend of mine used the "n" word.  I told him I'd kill him if he ever said it again.  I guess that makes me racist too.

Democrats are always the first to point out race.  "He's a black president."  "He's a black quarter back."  "She's a Latina musician."  Most of us don't see race.  We just see people.

Democrats are the ones who look at Col. Allen West and Dr. Benjamin Carson and say "You're traitors to your race" for stepping out of line and being conservative.  Why don't you tell them to move to the back of the bus while you're at it?

Democrats say immigration issues are race based.  For me, I'm not thinking of race.  I just am tired of all those Canadians coming down here to use our health care and steal our jobs.

There is a saying that I think applies to all these democrats: "Me thinks (s)he doth protest too much."  I think the reason they jump on everyone is because they assume everyone else is as racist as they are.

Think about that next time you watch Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, or so many others race bating.

Captain America for President

*** Warning! Contains Spoilers!***


You've been warned.

Ok, so yesterday I posted my review for Captain America: The Winter Solider.  Well worth reading.  Today, I'm going more for the message of Captain America.

Cap learns in the beginning of the movie that Nick Fury, Director of S.H.I.E.L.D., commissioned three new helicarriers.  Only these three were linked to satellites.  These satellites took up information on everyone on the planet, things like spending records and who they talked to.  They tracked google searches, text messages, and GPS locations.  In doing so, they were able to compile information on everyone, like who they voted for, or whether or not they would lead people.

Kinda sound familiar, doesn't it?  Not so fictitious, is it?

Then you have this conversation.
Fury- "We're going to start a lot of threats before they even happen."
Cap- "I thought the punishment usually came after the crime."

Cap ends up having to go on the run, hunted be the government, because he wouldn't help them propagate this kind of behavior.  They declare him an enemy, and everyone is hunting him with the intent to kill.

I bet the IRS audited him for being a patriot too.

As it turns out, many of the leaders where secret working for Hydra, who was seeking to bring order to the world.  People, they decided, couldn't be trusted with freedom.  So they decided to push the world to chaos so that they could create order.  They did things like ruined the economy, instituted socialist Health Care, and allowed terrorists to roam free, calling it things like "workplace violence" instead of terrorism.

Apparently Obama, Reid, and Pelosi are members of Hydra.

Remember those helicarriers?  They were sent after people, not terrorists, but those view as true enemies of Hyrda, proponents of liberty.  So they were going to do drone strikes on anyone that might become a leader of people that had values other than their own.

Remember when Obama said that conservatives, not terrorists where the greatest threat to America?  Hail Hydra.

In the end, Captain America was willing to risk and even end his life in defense of freedom.  And he called on others to do the same.  "The cost of liberty is high, but it's a price I'm willing to pay."

Captain America is a conservative (this is something from the comics, especially seen in the Marvel Civil War).  He believes in conservative values like freedom and choice.  As opposed to so-called liberals, who believe in the government and have a war on liberty. 

How long until Hydra comes knocking at your door?  Will you fall in lock step, or pay the price?

Hail Hydra, or fight with Captain America.  I know what I'd rather do.

Fort Hood, again

Fort Hood got shot up again.  PTSD is apparently to blame.  While I sympathize with mental illness and my heart goes out to the victims and families, I'm sick of the responses.

A man that was fired from CNN for being too liberal, if you can imagine such a thing, made an asinine statement.  I'm so disgusted with him, that I won't even use his name, because he doesn't deserve the publicity.  He said "'If only there'd been a good guy with a gun...' - such crap. This #FortHood soldier/shooter WAS a good guy. Until he turned bad, with a gun."

Are you kidding me?  This idiot thinks that he was a good soldier, but someone having a Smith & Weston made him evil? 

If all guns are evil, then by your own words, this man must have been evil before since he used guns as a soldier.  And Cops are evil too.  And the Secret Service.  And your private security.

You self-inflated toilet bug!  How DARE you attack the people that help us every day because they make us safe.

You want a solution?  Here's an idea, to make our military safer, have them do what every other military in the world does.  If they are in uniform and on base, they are armed.  A side arm minimum.  The truth is guns deter crime.  Kentucky is one of the states with the least crime, and the most free gun laws.  The areas with high crime in the US have the strictest gun laws.  That is a FACT.  They claim their crime comes from other places that sell guns, but most of the guns used in those crimes were illegally purchased, like from some guy's trunk.

The so-called nuclear deterrent works.  Bad guys should be afraid of good guys, not the other way around.  Gun laws don't work because criminals, be definition, don't obey the law. 

But that's the difference between logic and "liberal" idealism.  Logic examines facts and makes a decision, in this case that more freedom is a good thing.  Liberals hate freedom these days.  And they would never let a little thing like the facts stop them.

Obama's April Fools Joke

Did you hear this one yesterday?  Obama came out and said that ObamaCare is working!  Ha ha!  That's a good one! 

After all, you can keep your doctor, your insurance plan, and your premiums have gone down, right?  He also said they didn't make a hard sell, which is why then spent millions on commercials and endorsements!

Oh Obama, such a jokester.  I guess Putin was right about that.  I mean, the way Biden was laughing, it must be a joke, right?

No?  He was serious?

Because I'm paying 4 times the monthly premium I paid before, and my insurance isn't as good.  More people lost their insurance than got new insurance under ObamaCare.  People have less options, higher cost, lost their doctors.

They say if you repeat a lie often enough and loud enough, it will eventually be accepted as fact. 

Guess they haven't said it enough yet.

Obama vs. Putin

Yesterday, Putin re-drew the map of Europe, declaring part of Ukraine as their own country.  Very similar to what Germany did as they started to expand.

To combat this, Obama announced his NCAA bracket picks.

That will show them.

ObamaCare: A personal testimony

So the CBO report has been highly debated.  Are people losing jobs, or are they walking away from extra jobs because they don't need them?

Well, my mother was nearly canned for insurance purposes.  They ended up negotiating to drop full time employees to ensuring the employee only, not their family.  Since my mom is both a widow and an empty-nester, this allowed her to stay.  Her friend Brenda was not so fortunate.  This 60 year old woman is now working the graveyard shift at Amazon.com's shipping center, doing hard manual labor in 10-12 hour shifts just for insurance coverage.  Where's her promised "freedom"?

What the Democrats call "job lock" we once called "having a steady job."

I've recently become employed once more.  But I took a pay cut of 1/4th, and have to provide my own insurance.  My good friend John Thompson is sending me a monthly check to cover that for the next year.  That's a big relief.

That said, my insurance cost before Obamacare was $65 per month.  Now it is $237.16.  And since they regulate the market, I was not able to find private insurance any cheaper, because Obama tells the companies what they will pay and what they will cover, as well as who your doctor will be.  It's a government HMO.  Thanks for that.

Another thing that changed in the law is that now, I have to have maternity coverage.  You know, in case I give birth.  Now, if I knocked a girl up, she has to have her own coverage.  This won't roll over to her.  Nope.  This is in case I give birth.  I also have to have pediatric dental coverage.  You know, to cover the dental care for kids that I don't have.  And I am required by Federal Law to purchase this. 

Now here's the fun part.  When I went to get private health insurance, I was required to buy this separately.  But when I tried to do this, I was asked for my child's name and Social Security number, which I can't provide because I don't have a kid.  So it is ILLEGAL for my to buy what I am LEGALLY REQUIRED to buy.

All that was done so that I was federally required to buy directly from HealthCare.gov. 

So much for my freedom.  Thanks President Obama.

Syria

Let's look past rhetoric to some truth.

Truth #1: You should judge people by their words. Senator Obama would impeach President Obama for attacking Syria. Eating crow doesn't quite cover it.

Truth #2: For once there is bipartisan support for something in Washington. It's amazing how many in Congress think we should do something in Syria, despite surveys that say EIGHT-SEVEN PERCENT of American oppose action in Syria. This shows just how disconnected Washington is from the American people. We've got to kick these guys out and start over.

Truth #3: The international community won't back the play because of reports that say that groups within the rebels, actually Al Queda terrorsts and affiliates, took the weapons and killed their own people to force our involvement. Putin publicly said so, and the Obama administration responded "That's stupid." No facts, of course, just that they don't like the report.

Truth #4: Sun Tzu (the guy who LITERALLY wrote the manual on conducting warfare, called "The Art of War"), thinks this is a bad idea. He said that the loser attacks, and then determines the terms of victory. The winner decides terms of victory, then attacks. We have no objects, and innocent people will die by us dropping random bombs, then we may spark retaliation again Israel and other allies in the region, not to mention our own embassies. Oh wait. Obama's fine with those being attacked.

4b: Sun Tzu also said the deception and surprise were keys to success. We have neither. If we were going to do something, we should have done it first. It's easier to get forgiveness than permission, especially if the world thinks you are as weak as Obama.

Truth #5: We can't hope to win. The President of Syria is evil, but he's holding a greater evil at bay, just like Egypt and Libya. Hopefully we learned out lesson. If Al Queda wins in Syria, we lose, big time. If we go in and accomplish nothing, we've just ticked off the entire world for nothing. If we help the Syrian President, then we've added to the more than one hundred thousand deaths there already. Let's learn from history, and just keep our noses clean and mind our own business.

I Have a Dream 50th

What is the dream? The Dream is that we realize the truth found in Scripture and stated simply by our founding fathers: that all men are created equal.

Created by who? MLK said it was "God Almighty." That's the thing. This isn't about what the government who gave us freedom. It was God. In fact, Dueteronomy warns us that governments oppress people. And they still do.

MLK's dream was for racial justice. This still doesn't happen. Whites are "evil rich people." Blacks are "dangerous criminals." Everyone else is here illegally. Yes, prejudice is everywhere.

MLK also said "Don't blame our white brothers." As he pointed out, many white people where there marching with them. Racism isn't a White issue, or a Black issue. It's a sin issue. That's right, sin. God said in Christ there is no difference between race or gender. We're all equal in sin, and made equal again if we accept God's grace and repent of those sins. We need freedom that is found in Christ Jesus. This includes Americans and non-Americans, rich and poor.

Today we are still fighting these battles. Democrats keep people locked in ghettos and in chains of government dependence. Republicans ignore people. Both parties act their way because all they care about is taking power, and not about the people that they step on to get that party.

Some say "We're doing better. We have a black president." We're doing better. But that's not why. MLK wanted people judged by content of character, not race. Voting for someone because he's black is the same as not voting for him because he's black. The fact that race is noticed is still racist. I've made no secret that I agree with little that Obama does, but those disagreements are philophical, not race. Being a minister, baptizing whites, blacks, hispanics, you just celebrate because they're people that matter to God.

I have a dream where all people realize God's love and treat each other just as that: people.

Equality?

Our nation took another step away from freedom in the name of tolerance.  The Supreme Court said that states had no ability to define marriage.  Gay marriage is now ok.

Here's the problem.  The Federal Government doesn't issue marriage liscences.  Marriage is 100% a state issue.  I know.  I've performed weddings in four states. 

This is just one more case of the liberals in Washington stripping away our rights, especially the first amendment.  This isn't equality.  In truth, in everything that is right, the government should recognize "civil unions" for hetero or homo.  Marriage should be left where it started, in the church, ordained by God.

Enemy of the State?

So... our country seems to have some trouble lately.  With Fort Hood shootings, Sandyhook Elementary, the Boston bombings, we are under attack.  There are nearly regular shootings by the mentally unstable and attacks by terrorists.

Yet, our government seems to be confused as to who the enemies of our nation are.  The State Department went after our dead ambassador.  The DOJ went after the media.  The IRS went after conservatives.  The NSA is going after everyone.

This, for some reason, is surprising.  I don't know why.  They've been doing it for years.  We knew they were doing it.  There's a movie called "Enemy of the State" staring Gene Hackman, John Voit, and Will Smith.  We're living it.  Political opponents are enemies, while people trying to kill us must be our victims. 

That said, if you're asking me is this Snowden or whatever his name is is a hero for leaking, my answer is no.  If he thought he was being brave and doing the right thing, he wouldn't have run away.  He would have stood in public and taken the consequences.  That's the difference between standing for a conviction and just being a turd.

In the mean time, our nation's leaders need to learn the difference between our friends and our enemies.  The IRS did this political bullying because Obama has created a culture of corruption and favoritism.  He's McCarthyism and Nixon all rolled in one, and no one cares.  It's really sad.

ObamaCare hits home

I hate to say "I told you so."  Especially when it's bad.  But I told you ObamaCare sucks.  It destroys jobs. 

My mom just found out yesterday (Monday) that she has a difficult decision.  She can either have Health Insurance, or a job.  That's right.  Because Obama's regulations, my mother's insurance has skyrocketed.  The school that she works for is voting Thursday to get rid of insurance for the teacher's aides.  She's been at that job for 27 years, and has been told she either has to retire before the vote on Thursday, or she has to go without insurance, knowing that she can't afford ObamaCare, which she is required by law to have.

That's right.  She has just entered government enforced poverty.  She either can have insurance or an income.  Her thought is she might be able to get an income, but she absolutely cannot get insurance.  So she has to leave a job which she loves to afford health insurance.

And she's not the only one effected.  Other aides that were hired after a certain date are not only losing their insurance, but also their hours.  Since ObamaCare not requires employers to provide insurance for those who have more than 30 hours, and companies still can't afford to provide benefits, then not only do these people not have insurance, but have less income.  That's what happens when idiot politicians like Obama and Pelosi who have never held a real job or done anything in real life make decisions for the rest of the country.  They had excellent intentions, but reality is simply different.  The road to hell, and national poverty, is paved with good intentions.

Leave us Alone


So there’s been a lot going on lately that I want to just say “Leave me alone.” There has been way too many people trying to get into my business.

For example, New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg is running ads in eight states, not New York, advocating people to call their Congressional Representatives and Senators to get them to pass gun control. Dude, you are the mayor of New York not the United States. You have gun control where you live. What I do, what those that represent me on a federal level do, is our business, not yours. Leave me alone. (I would also be remiss to fail to mention that the commercial featured some of the worst gun safety ever seen.)

Then former funny man Jim Carey released a video against guns, claiming Charlton Heston didn’t go to heaven because he liked guns. Didn’t mention that Heston was one of the early civil rights advocates in Hollywood, you know, before it was cool. The video also featured Ghandi, who once said one of the worst things England did to India was to deny them the right to bear arms. Think about this: Carey is famous for talking from his butt, literally, and for trying to make it illegal for me to vaccinate my kids, despite the fact that more people died from the mumps last year than guns. Hmm… Here’s an idea Jim, why don’t you try to get a career again, and keep your talking rear out of my business. Leave me alone.

Reverend Lyon of St. John’s Episcopal Church said that as a Christian, I have to be racist, pushing “blacks back to the back of the bus.” I hate to tell you, you idiotic psychopath, but it was DEMOCRAT governors that turned the fire hoses on people protesting for civil rights. Who were those protestors? CHRISTIANS!!! Even Dr. King was a Reverend. So stop trying to rewrite history and stop trying to tell me what I’m supposed to believe. Leave me alone.

A Princeton Alumnus sent a letter to all female students telling them that they needed to get married before they graduated. (In that letter, she also said that blue collar people are stupid. For one, some of the smartest people you’ll ever meet are blue collar. You want the guy who fixes you car to be smart. One of the smartest people you’ll meet is a construction worker, who needs to decided how many braces go into your ceiling and at what angles to keep your roof from collapsing when you get three feet of snow.) What is it any of your business when they marry, or who? Leave them alone.

Personally, I believe in freedom. I don’t want the government to tell me to buy Health Insurance, let alone require it after making it more expensive for me to do so. I don’t want overregulation for the sake of giving some government paper-pusher something to do. I’m an American. I want to be left alone, to seek to live my own life.
