don't take us back 50 years, please!

We are not a racist country anymore, you know? If we were, how in the HELL did Obama get elected to be our president? The only way something like that would happen, is if there was true 'voter fraud', which would totally undermine the ACORN discussion, wouldn't it? No, I think people are objecting to his policies, not his skin color. We want to get back to the Constitution, why is that so wrong?

more accusations...

Is anyone besides me sick as hell of being referred to as a 'racist'? I see postings about the pictures of the crowds in DC Sept 13th, and people are saying "Just look at them! There's no 'people of color' there! They're all white!"
Okay...gotta ask...look at the percentage of white people in this country vs. people of color....it's probably about the same percentage of people represented in those pictures, right? C'mon! Don't be so desparate to call people racist that you make yourself look like an idiot. It embarrasses us for you! (not really...I'm just being polite).

health care...

I'm so freaking lost on all this health care stuff! I know a lot of Americans think it should be a RIGHT we have...free health care. And, damn, I'd love it if we could even possibly consider doing that! Who's gonna say no to anything free? However, I don't see how it could be done. Insurance is super-expensive, yet I really don't want someone in DC telling me what treatment I can try or not. Since I have ms, I have to have expensive drugs, & luckily, one of the drug companies will work with me. But I know there are way many more people out there that need different drugs, some even more expensive. Or when you don't need drugs, just a doctor!
I also know that, actually, the reason drugs & doctors aren't just free for everyone. MEDICAL KNOWLEDGE & DRUGS are commodities! Why in the world do we expect them to be free? I know, it just sucks all the way around, doesnt it? So, why CAN'T we get health insurance individually from across state lines?? And why won't they limit the amount of medical malpractice awards? If doctors werent having to CYA by sending you to get tons of unneccessary tests, they might not have to spend so much on malpractice insurance! I'm not saying doctors do everything right, but c'mon! Obama even accused doctors of doing surgery just for the money!! I'm not a doctor, but if I was I'd be SO FREAKING offended by that! And he said one time that instead of getting an expensive operation, maybe you should just stay home and take painkillers!! WTF????

...call it paranoia, if you must...

WTF is going on with the US government?? You know, I'm not that huge of a fan of any popular Republicans lately (do NOT put me in a box with George W!), but, I'm totally not liking the way Obama the "organizer" is re-making the country. I'd be okay if he was only a Democrat, but he's so far over the line into socialism/communism, he really is remaking the whole United States!! Everyone who fell under his spell & voted for him, is, hopefully, seeing what his kind of change is! I saw a news clip of Omar Hammami (who is by the way, a totally hot-looking al-Shabaabist from Alabama! but now he's in Somalia) in which he derided President Obama, & made mention of how the Americans were so mesmerized with him. Now...shit, even a militant anti-American even sees it!
Now Obama wants to make a speech to schoolchildren about how they can help him. Huhh?? He's the President of the United States! Don't make the kids the next czars! This shit looks like something 'The Great Leader' would do, like in North Korea! I can't believe how this country slid so far off course and how the "sheeple" let this happen! Nope...I got no clue how to fix it. Actually, got no clue IF anybody can fix it at this point!

wow, been a long time...

All I can do is shake my head, and wonder if everyone who voted for Obama expected this kind of CHANGE? Most of the time when people think they want something or someone different, they get a whole hell of a lot more 'different' than they bargained for, huh?

And it really pisses me off that anybody, Republican, Democrat, or Independent, any time they get together to say that they don't agree with 'the majority', they're ridiculed, discounted as people just trying to cause trouble! WTF??? We're supposed to do this! When Cindy Sheehan protested on George W Bush's property in Texas when he was on vacation, everybody, including the President, welcomed that and said she was well within her rights...
Obamatrons say they inherited this deficit. How freakin' many months can he blame HIS mistakes on the former administration? Yes, W spent too much...but NOBODY'S spent THIS much, ever!! And he's already raising taxes, like he said he wouldn't. Like tobacco...it's a proven fact that most people that use tobacco are low or middle-income people...the very citizens that Obama swore wouldn't see one dime more in taxes! When the hell are people going to wake up & realize that he's not just an ordinary Democrat, he's on the extreme far-left of the political spectrum? Is everybody at home doing the same as me, you know, watch what you spend your money on, not spending more than you have? Working on getting out of debt and paying off any of the credit cards you have? Quit smoking, cuz you just can't afford it? Huh..why can't the government quit blowing money and printing more? I'm relatively stupid, but even I see why you can't do that! Yeah...even Democrats are saying he's too far left...

all over but the counting...

...well, there doesn't seem to be much doubt on the Republican side who is headed to the top, which I think is a sign that people are coming to grips with the fact that he may be the best Republican to be the nominee. And now I need to admit it...I watched a lot of the candidates on tv, and listened to their "attitudes" (positive or negative!), and just watched how they look as far as their body language and the impression I get from each (and that's always been fascinating to me anyway!). Mitt Romney, all of a sudden, is giving off an impression to me as very stiff, trying to look almost perfect, you know, like a guy who knows he looks good, and, dammit, you better recognize it too. Arrogant, but somewhat uncomfortable at the same time. Personally, I've had my fill of people like that lately, so it's about the biggest turnoff in the world.
McCain gives off a very aggressive posture, which I can't blame him for, he's earned it. But there's just something about when you look at him behind a podium, well, it just kinda gives me the creeps all of a sudden. Not that I don't like him, he just seems like his posture is like a 'hulking' presence, with the way his shoulders are. That's probably something to do with all the bones that were broken when he was a POW, so that's just my take on how it looks...
To me, the whole thing drew my attention back to my reason for voting...to give my opinion, not to be a sheep. So, I made up my mind last night, I'm voting for Huckabee. Nope...he's not the likely nominee unless some bigtime shit comes out before Ohio's turn, but...I've never found anything about him that bothers me...and that's why I want to vote for him. I had been thinking "Well, but that's a waste of a vote, isn't it?" Then I thouht last night, well, no, it isn't at all. A waste of a vote is when you stay home and get pissy because there's no perfect candidate that believes exactly like you do. At least get out there and use your voice, even if it may get drowned out by everybody else's...but...don't be a passive lemming, for God's sake!
I heart Huckabee, proudly!
PoUnCeS!! Tigr!

Super weekend before Super Tuesday

Well, Mitt Romney won the Maine caucuses! I still think he has no hope left to win the big number one position in the world...nor do I think he'd EVER have a chance in hell to be John McCain's vice president, either! The two guys truly don't like each other's views on much, you can tell that just by watching them side-by-side.

In my mind, the perfect Republcan party would be McCain;president, Huckabee;vice president, Romney;Secretary of Treasury. Because that would cover the far-right conservatives by putting Huckabee right up there. It just may be the way to calm down some of the rabid conservatives who refuse to vote for McCain! People are reeally starting to look, well, STUPID about that!

If you're a Republican and you're a stubborn, whiny little baby and stay home and don't vote to get your point across...you may as well say that was a vote for Hillary or Obama. Will you brag about that in the future?

Please, seriously, think about it! Even if McCain isn't your first choice, don't you have more in common with his beliefs than with Hillary's? One person doesn't have the choice of who the nominee is! Maybe this is all going back to how a lot of people in this country are...I want what I WANT!! NOW!! Holy crap, people! Grow up!!

Paranoia...

Video cameras don't really reduce crimes...they just provide a strong motivation for criminals to move to other neighborhoods...

PoUnCeS!! Tigr!
