This really makes me mad. An officer on his way to a call, doing his job to protect the community, and he gets killed by a drunk illegal alien from Mexico. I know, they are just here to make a better life for themselves and their family...just like this guy right? All the illegals should be rounded up and taken back to where they came from. If they want to come here, they can do it legally, otherwise stay the hell out.
Go Sheriff Joe!

Financial Crisis? I Think Not.
There is no financial crisis. The only crisis is that there are so many stupid people in this country who believe that know nothing, Barak Obama, the media and the liberals who want to cause a panic and blame the conservatives and President Bush.
Investing is gambling. You invest in something you are taking a chance. You may win or you may lose. If you make a bad investment, it is not the governments fault that you were greedy and wanted to make a quick buck and lost. It is your fault. Take your loss and be smarter with your money in the future. If you go to the casino and lose a lot of money, should the government pay you back what you lost?
The federal government has no business bailing out any company that fails because they made bad business decisions. Let them fail. The government shouldn't bail out anyone who gets into financial trouble and might lose their house because they didn't make good financial decisions. If you fail, you fail. Do better next time. Learn from your mistakes.
Why use the our tax money to pay for other people's stupidity? Because Obama says we should. And if he says so, then it must be a good thing, right? He has been in congress long enough to know how things work and what is best for this country right? No. He is a politician. He says what he thinks will get him elected. He is an idiot. McCain is an idiot, but not as bad as Obama.

Feeling Old
I can't believe that it is already October. It is crazy how fast time is passing. Not just the days, but the months and years. Maybe it is because I am getting older. I just turned 40 on Monday. Physically, I don't feel older than the day before, but there is something about reaching 40 that makes you think about your life. What I have done and what I haven't. It is mostly the "haven't" that bothers me.
I always wonder how others deal with getting older. I am not really depressed about it, but there are things I wish I could do, but know that I will never be able to. But, I try my best. One thing that I have always wanted to do is to rent a small motor home and drive from one coast to the other and back. I know that I will never be able to do this for it would require a large amount of money. Money that I don't have or will ever get. But, I am trying go on small day trips with the family as our finances permit. I want my kids to have some sense of what is out there...at least where we live.

Obama's View: abortion is the way out, the road to absolution and redemption...
Obama's View on teen pregnancy: abortion as the way out, the road to absolution and redemption for pregnant teens.
In this article, Pat Buchanan hits the nail on the head.
I agree with this man's opinion.

Father Hits Daughter's Boyfriend With Pipe
This guy should have been given a pat on the back, instead he was arrested.
I would have done the same thing.

September 11, 2001
Where were you on this fateful day? Do you remember what happened on that day? Well, I do, and I will never forget it.
We had been in our mobile home that we bought a little over a month, and my daughter just started kindergarten. I was getting her up for school and her TV was on. We didn't have cable at the time and there was no antenna on it so the signal was very snowy, but she did get the Fox network channel. On the tv, I could just make out the World Trade Center and someone was giving the play by play as it was happening live I saw the first plane hit. At the time, it was not know to be a terrorist act.
Then I went into the living room where the reception was much better and turned on the tv. I sat there with my daughter and watched the second plane hit. I believe that at that time it was known that the planes had been hijacked. I felt really horrible.
I drove my daughter to her school and people were just starting to talk about it. I turned on the radio and rushed to work where everyone was huddled around the television in the conference room. We sat there and watched as people jumped and fell from the upper floors. Then we watched in horror as first one tower, then the other collapsed. No one spoke for the longest time. There wasn't a dry eye in the place.
Eventually, the owner told us to get back to work and that we could listen to the radio or get on the internet at our desks to keep us updated.
I don't think that we really got any work done that day, and not much that whole week.
Even though we really couldn't afford it, the next day, we signed up for cable tv so we could see what was going on.
I was so glad when we went into Afghanistan and then later Iraq. I know there are those who criticize the President, and for most of those people, I have nothing but contempt. And those that say we brought what happened on that day seven years ago, I have one thing to say to you, "head or gut."
Going over there and killing these worthless scumbags was the right thing to do no matter how the media and the liberal jackasses try to demonize the President's actions. And all the men and women who have sacrificed everything to do their duty are the true heroes.
So, to those men and women who died on that day and to the families and those who had loved ones killed in that act of overwhelming cowardice, my thoughts and prayers will always be with you.
Freedom is never free.

Junk Drawers
What is a junk drawer? You know what they are. Every home has one. A junk drawer is a drawer somewhere in the house that you put things that you don't know where else to put them. These things don't fit into any of the other drawers in the house and they are items that you don't want to throw away because you might need them in the future.
Growing up, my parents had a junk drawer. As a matter of fact, they had two. We loved to look in them to see what kind of "treasure" we could find. Thumb tacks, string, a spool of thread, rubber bands, glue, an assortment of pencils and pens, scraps of paper, some change (which we liked to sneak out of the drawer), missing parts from toys, a pair of pliers, a screwdriver or two, scissors, and a lot of other things I fail to remember. But the drawer was always there, and if we lost something or needed something, we could usually find it there.
When got married for the first time, my wife and I unconsciously started our own junk drawer filled with the same type of things that were in the junk drawer from my child hood, except for the toy parts. Throughout the time we were married, it never let us down. I think when she left, she took it with her along with most everything else. While single, I really didn't have a junk drawer. I don't know why. Then, I remarried and we started a new junk drawer. After a year, we moved into a different house and as before, started another junk drawer that lasted for five years.
We then moved to Missouri and took our junk drawer with us...we actually had two and just dumped them into a box and when we got to our new house, we dumped them into a drawer and added and subtracted from that drawer till we moved again. But this time, we were bound and determined not to have a junk drawer. Well, things haven't worked out that way. While unpacking our things, we came across odd items and things that didn't fit into any of our other drawers. So I put them in a drawer in the back laundry room and a new junk drawer was begun.
I am a firm believer that humans have a basic instinct to create a junk drawer. I am sure that when we lived in caves, we reserved a part of that cave for "junk". At our jobs, there are junk drawers. I am sure that there is even a junk drawer on the International Space Station. My dad even carried one with him. He always carried odds and ends in his pockets...pocket knife, pencil, change, screwdriver, rubber band, and some other items that had unknown functions to us.
Junk drawers. What are they? They are a place to put bits and pieces of our lives that are important to us at any given time, but have no home of their own.
What is in your junk drawer?

Sarah Palin
Here is a good article about Sarah Palin, John McCain's VP choice.
I think he made a very good choice in her and she will change the direction of American Conservatism for a long time to come. Not to mention that she is much more qualified to be president than Obama with his pittance of experience and knowledge.
This is One Man's Opinion.
