The President is giving a speech on his new jobs bill right now. He is so full of shit that his eyes are brown. He gave the same speech before while promoting his previous stimulus plans. If these plans had created as many jobs that he brags about, then we should have no unemployment today. Instead, Unemployment is at one of the highest rates it has ever been. It is not the government's role to create jobs but to make it easy for business to grow, create and keep jobs here in the United States. I am tired of all the government crap.
It is time that we take back our country. The Obama administration has been so supportive of Egypt and Libya in their efforts to carry out revolution to overthrow those oppressive regimes, but yet keeps enacting and pushing measures to oppress the American people just like those regimes enacted on those people.
Why are we allowing this to happen?

This blog contains my views and opinions on topics that I feel a need to speak out about...doing the right thing is not always easy, otherwise more people would be doing it.

Where Have all the Snow Blowers Gone? Long Time Passing...
I would like to know where all the snow blowers have gone and all the snow shovels and generators and food.
According to the news, there is a big winter storm headed towards the Northeast and it is supposed to stop that area in its tracks. This is the second such storm so far in the past two months. When the first storm hit, the news showed people heading for the stores to buy food, snow shovels, snow plows,generators, and other related items. This storm is going to hit the same area.
What I would like to know is, where did all the snow blowers, snow shovels and other related items go? The last time, there was a rush on these items. Panicked people running out and grabbing up as much stuff as they could before the storm hit. The same thing is happening now. Why do they need buy more? Did they throw the stuff they bought last time out? Did their snow blowers break already? What then?
The same thing will happen during hurricane season. In the face of an approaching hurricane, people will rush out to buy generators, flashlights, candles, and all sorts of other items they deem necessary. Sometimes same area is hit with a hurricane more than once in a season, and there on the news are people rushing out again.
What did they do with the generators that they bought last season or even for the last hurricane a month or two before? Generators are durable goods and should last for years, and they are expensive. Anyone out there know the answer?

Shooting Tragedy in Arizona
I really didn't want to get into politics and the shooting in Arizona, but the Democrats and Liberals have forced my hand.
First, let me start out by saying that I am deeply saddened by the recent shooting that has happened in Tucson, Arizona. My heart and prayers go out to the victims and their families. They person that did this was a wacko and politics had nothing to do with his decision to do what he did. Democrats and liberals are spewing forth lies, hate and playing the blame game, blaming everyone but they person that committed this horrible act.
If the shooter happened to be hispanic or other ethnic minority, they would be calling for people not to blame the ethnic group or religion he happened to be associated with. This shows great hippocracy from the left. They did this exact thing after the Fort Hood shooting. The shooter was muslim and had a history of problems. But because he was not white, they urged caution and asked the public not to come to any knee-jerk reactions.
In this most recent shooting, the shooter is white so they make him the poster child for supposedly right wing hate and anyone who oppose the Left and the socialisation of America. And as sure as anything, the left blames everyone but the shooter...even going so far as to blame Sarah Palin. Really?
This shows the great hypocracy on the part of the left. And now, just as I predicted, only two days after the shooting, some Democrats are planning on introducing bills attacking the second ammendment. The typical knee-jerk, liberal reaction. This tradgedy is a great opportunity for them to push forward their agenda that attacks the Constitution in the name of the safety and security of the people.
On the news today, numerous politions have stated that they are thinking about arming themselves for protection. That is funny. They are ones who are trying to ban private gun ownership. They want the ability to arm themselves but will procede with trying to deny the people that right. Makes me sick.

Environmental Hypocrisy
For as long as I can remember, I have heard over and over how Democrats and Liberals care so much for the environment. In many cases going so far as to stop land development projects for endangered insects, animals, plants and wetlands, restricting energy production, and costing this country jobs we can't afford to lose.
But when it comes to the polluting and destruction of the environment, especially the Arizona desert, by illegal aliens crossing over from Mexico, they don't care and turn a blind eye. Instead of being outraged and calling on the government for immediate action, the bleeding hearts put up water towers to ease the suffering of these polluting criminals who are destroying our precious deserts. They even want more of them to come to this country and then give them amnesty and let them become citizens.
This makes me sick to my stomach. It makes me outraged when I see on the news all the trash, clothing, and other items all strewn about, and the damage that their beloved illegal aliens are causing in Southern Arizona.
And when the people of Arizona stand up, do what is right and try to protect this great state, we get called racist and uncaring.
These Democrats, Liberals, Progressives, bleeding hearts, and other similar worthless types should be shipped down to Mexico and help to make THAT country better better instead of screwing ours up. I like the United States of America the way it was before they started fucking with it and ruining it for me and my kids.

Absent, but not Gone
I haven't posted here in over seven months. It is not because I ran out of opinions on things. On the contrary, there are too many things going on in life, causing me to overload on my opinions. I am not a writer and never claimed to be. So, when there is something that I feel compelled to put my opinion down for posterity, it is difficult for me to find the words. Speaking and writing, though both are making public one's ideas and feelings, are very different. And as with my writing skills, my speaking skills are not where I want them to be either. So, anyone reading this blog, please bare with me.
This new year, one of my resolutions is to keep all my blogs current and also start two more. Why would I want to add more blogs to my list when I can't keep up with the ones I already have ye may ask? Well, one possibility is that I am not a very stable person or not a very intelligent one. Or, maybe I am just trying to find my voice in this crazy, mixed up, information overloaded world. And possibly trying to find a way to help supplement my wife's income and maintain my status as a stay-at-home parent. Which, I might add, is getting harder and harder to do in this upside-down economy caused by the horrible legislation that was passed and signed (by the worst president ever) the past two years.
My wife and I will be lucky of we don't end up homeless before the end of this year.
This is just One Man's Opinion...or more than likely truth.

The City of Angels is Not
With all the crap lately about Arizona's new immigration law, SB1070, and all the cites that are getting on the 'boycott' band wagon, I have not seen anyone of them thinking it through except the head of the Arizona Corporation Commission.
Recently, the city of Los Angeles jumped on the 'boycott Arizona' band wagon. The city council voted to cancel all contracts with the state of Arizona and probably also restricting travel for official city business.
But, like all these boy-cotters, they failed to think it through and have become big fat Hippocrates. Why do I say they are Hippocrates? Because, thanks to Gary Pierce, the head of the Arizona Corporation Commission, for pointing out how silly these cities are; specifically Los Angeles.
"If an economic boycott is truly what you desire, I will be happy to encourage Arizona utilities to renegotiate your power agreements so Los Angeles no longer receives power from Arizona-based generation," wrote Arizona Corporation Commissioner Gary Pierce to Los Angeles Mayor Antonio R. Villaraigosa, in a May 18 letter.
"I am confident that Arizona's utilities would be happy to take those electrons off your hands," he wrote.
According to Gary Pierce, the city of Los Angeles gets 25% of its electricity from Arizona. So, when the city voted to cancel all contracts and business with Arizona, did they also mean their electricity? Either they were too stupid to realize this fact or they were just hoping no one would bring it up. The first reason wouldn't surprise me. All these boy-cotters are idiots. I am sure that some lean towards the second reason. In either case, are they willing to put their money, or electricity, where their mouth is? I don't think so. They are all just typical liberals. And all liberals are all about putting on a show hoping to get more voters. But in this case, I think they are going to end up with egg on their face along with all the other boy-cotters.

Phoenix Police officer killed in crash with suspected drunk driver
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.

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.

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.

Finally
It has been quite some time since I have written in here. Not because I haven't had anything to say, but more because I have been busy or my motivation wasn't there. This morning, I have a little motivation, so will probably not be anything special.
Ok. I don't know about you, but although I have strong opinions about my political stand on issues, I do get very irritated about all the political ads on TV and radio. I don't care which side placed the ad or what point or attack it is trying to make. This year was the worst. When we were living in Phoenix, the worst part was all the signs. You coldn't go down any street with out seeing countless signs telling you to vote for this candidate or that one or to vote for or agains this or that proposition. They were everywhere. And then after the election, they took forever to take them all down. So they started fining candidates for every sign that was left up after a certain date. Of course it didn't work very well. But as far as radio and tv ads, there weren't that many...even right up to and the day of the election. But, here in Missouri, there seemed to be more air time given to political ads than actual programming. Watching a 30min sitcom there were probably 20 min political attack ads and 10 min. of actual show. The worst collection of ads that I ever saw from both sides. I knew there was a reason that I hate politions. There there seemed to be 100 times more mud slinging here than in Phoenix. Is it the part of the country or was it particular to this election? I don't know and don't care.
On thing that this election confirmed for me is the difference between liberals and conservatives. It seems ok for liberals to attack and attack and sling mud and incorporate that into their SOP (standard operating procedure for those of you who tried real hard in school but were just too stupid and had to became liberals). It is ok for them to stoop so low with their attacks and then pat themselfs on the back for doing a good job. But when a conservative puts up a similar ad, they are chastised for being hateful, uncaring, mean mudslingers. It is this type of crap that makes me hate liberals, not just that they don't care about anyone but themselves and power.
An article in the Kansas City Star titled "I'm positive about this: We all lost" the writer,Greg Clark, says:
"...so many candidates not only forgot their manners, they forgotthat they were seeking office as public servants. Theyforgot that servanthood means working for somebody else. It means personal sacrifice. It means honoring the best interests of citizens. Can anybody explain how listening to a months-long barage of attack ads is in the interest of anybody?"
and he goes on to say: "...instead of servanthood, the big candidatesbowed to the three M's: Muscle, money,and mud. They forgot the fourth M: Morality."
Morality...something severly lacking in politics. Especialy Dems and libs.
He hit the nail on the head. And I don't think it will ever change unless politicos...especially liberals...start really caring about this great country and its great people instead of themselves and the power they lust after.
This is One Man's Opinion but I wish more had this view.
Ok. I don't know about you, but although I have strong opinions about my political stand on issues, I do get very irritated about all the political ads on TV and radio. I don't care which side placed the ad or what point or attack it is trying to make. This year was the worst. When we were living in Phoenix, the worst part was all the signs. You coldn't go down any street with out seeing countless signs telling you to vote for this candidate or that one or to vote for or agains this or that proposition. They were everywhere. And then after the election, they took forever to take them all down. So they started fining candidates for every sign that was left up after a certain date. Of course it didn't work very well. But as far as radio and tv ads, there weren't that many...even right up to and the day of the election.

I Don't Understand
There are a lot of things in the world that I don't understand. For instance, how they get a satalite to stay in geosyn orbit or the social structure of an ant colony or how they get those tiny little ships in bottles. But it doesn't bother me that I don't understand these things. But lately there are some things that I don't quite understand and they are really getting at me.
First is, if a US citizen was cought getting into Mexico illegally, he would be thrown in jail and no one would have a problem with that. But if a Mexican is caught coming into the United States illegally and thrown in jail, certain groups of people throw a fit. Why is that? Why is it wrong to enforce certain laws in this country. If we do, it is called racism. I just don't get it.
Why is it called racism to want to have the laws in our country enforced? Because of the nimrods, bleeding hearts, liberals and all the other worthless people out there think that just because that someone is poor and trying to make a better life for themselves or their family it is ok for them to break the law. I thought justice was supposed to be blind.
As I have said before, I am not against people wanting to come to this country to have a better life. I am just against them doing it illegally. And make no mistake, just because the media refuses to call these people illegal aliens doesn't mean they aren't. The ones that are here agains the law should be sent back. I don't care if they have family here or jobs or whatever reason, they need to go back. End of story. Life is rough so deal with it.
Another thing. If the mexicans coming to this country and the ones that are still here are so proud of being mexican and of their country, why the HELL don't they do something to make their own country great instead of screwing up ours. Mexico has an abundance of resources...including oil. Enough to get Mexico on par with the US. Why don't they work to fix their own country? There are plenty of intelegent, smart and hardworking people in Mexico to create a great country. Maybe should change their name from Mexican to Mexican't. What ever the reason, the ones who are here illegally (whatever country they are from) need to get the fuck back to their own country and go through the proper processes to come into this country legally otherwise stay the fuck out!

Protest March in Downtown Phoenix
Yesterday, there was a march through downtown Phoenix to protest mainly a passed in the House of Representatives that deals with illegal aliens and those that hire and help them. The numbers were supposedly in the thousands, but I suspect that most were themselves not here legally.
The bill passed by the U.S. House of Representatives in December, sponsored by Republican Wisconsin Rep. James Sensenbrenner, calls for tough border security and enforcement measures and would make it a federal crime, instead of a civil offence, for illegal aliens to live in the country. It would also penalise people for helping illegals...something which should have been done a long time ago.
I have lived in Phoenix all my life and have seen and experienced this growing problem first hand. Of all the issues facing this country and this state, the problem of illegals coming into this country angers me the most.
This is the United States of America(ns), not part of Mexico. Last time I checked, it was against the law to enter this country without going through proper channels. What angers me most of all is that once here, these illegals demand all the benefits and rights that legal citizens of this country are entitled to. The Constitution of the United States applies to legal citizens of this country. If someone wants the rights and protections of this document they must obtain legal status by getting a proper visa or becoming a citizen. All medical and social programs should be given to legal citizens first every time then to people who have entered this country legally.
I know someone (a legal citizen of the United States) personally who because of health problems went to get social security and Medicare/Medicaid to help with medical expenses but was denied. Yet people who enter this country illegally can get the health care free of charge that he was denied. That is absoulutely not right.It should be the other way around. Illegals should get nothing. If they want the opportunities that this country can offer, then knock and come through the front door instead of breaking in through the back door and demanding the right to live here.
And no, I don't believe this country's economy would collaps if all illegals were sent home. And I don't believe in guest worker programs. There are plenty of people with legal status to do the work.
If there are people out there that believe the government should pay for healthcare for these people then they can donate their own money if they want but don't tell me I have to give my money to help people that are here illegally.
If the people who feel sorry for these illegals because they have no opportunities in Mexico to provide for their families or to have a good live and it is ok for them to come to this country against the law...these bleeding hearts should move to Mexico and work to improve conditions in that country so they wouldn't feel the need to come here or give them their own money.
Why can't they make their own country better instead of making ours worse.
And no, I am not raceist or anything of the sort. I have no problem with people from other countries wanting to come here through the legal process. And yes, I am aware that it can take a long time, but that is life. I am just against people who come here against the law demanding that they are entitled to all the benefits and opportunities the United States has to offer that should only be for legal citizens or legal immigrants.
Get them out, close the border and maybe they will get their lazy ass off the couch or porch and fix the problems of their own country like they should have instead of bringing problems to this country.
One more thing. If someone is going to come to this country and try and live and make a better life for themselves and their family, they can at least learn the language first or make an effort to when they get here. I am tired of trying to communicate with someone who doesn't speak the language of this country...English.

No Shame So They Blame...Everyone Except Those Responsible
Here is another of many good articles on what happened in New Orleans.
The ones that are criticizing the President for a lack of "caring" and for not acting fast enough don't care about facts. They are all bleeding heart, coolaid drinking, know nothing liberals that jump at any perceived chance to attack Bush. They are playing to people's emotions instead of logic and intellect...Obviously because they have none.

Bush is to Blame...Not!
Here is another of many articles that prove the know nothings blaming Bush for what happened in New Orleans and elsewhere in the Gulf Coast really do know nothing. They will do anything to take a whack at the President...in the process showing what buffons they really are. While trying to throw shit at Bush they are stepping in it and getting it on themselves.
