SpellingBee 2007 Champ

Last night, the finals for the "SCRIPPS-HOWARD-NATIONAL-SOCIALLY-UNDERDEVELOPED-AND-BUGABOO-CHILDREN'S-SPELLING-BEE was held.

This video, from a coupla years ago, is not only CORRECTLY representative of the type of child that makes it to the nationals, it shows a kind of child abuse that is never talked about in our society:

Intellectual Slavery.

So the kid can spell "notafukinclue" the first time around, and he may even end up at Princeton in a few years...

That ain't gonna guarrantee him a j-o-b.

Spell goodnight, Dick.

R-E-S-P-E-C-T, tell you what it means to me.

1) Marginally talented actress and noted NYC police force hating Susan Sarandon said today that she will move to Canada or Italy if Senator John McCain is elected to the presidency. http://www.monstersandcritics.com/people/news/article_1408445.php/Susan_Sarandons_Canada_vow

Has anyone asked the Canadians or Italians how THEY feel about that?

2) Speaking of Senator McCain...if you've read my blog for any length of time, you know that I always refer to political figures respectfully by using their title: President Bush...Former President Clinton...Senator Clinton, etc. It's something my parents once taught me, a concept known as RESPECT. My children are corrected every time they too slip into modern American verbiage and say "Bush" instead of President Bush, and so on and so forth. I hope I am not the only person who has noticed how the candidates speak, but in case you haven't, let me enlighten you:
Senators McCain and Clinton nearly always use the proper terminology when addressing their opponents or the current president. Senator Obama rarely - if ever - does so. When he speaks, it is Bush, Clinton, or McCain coming out of his mouth, with no statement or acknowledgement of position within our government. Am I saying I think Senator Obama's mom should be taking him over her knee and slapping his ass several times?

Yeah....I guess I am.

3) I keep hearing about the sect in San Angelo Texas, and how they were done wrong because they broke no laws and were just innocently minding their own business. Really? An adult having sex with a minor is legal in Texas? Who knew? I can see the caravan of pedophiles going across Interstate 10 from both directions as we speak.

4) I have nothing else to say. The stupidity of the people of this country...MY country...is astounding. Say goodnight, Dick.

Goodnight, Dick.

Bill Clinton vs. 9-11 Conspiracy Heckler

Thank you, Mr. Former President. You are absolutely correct. People who persist in 9-11 conspiracy make Americans look like "idiots" throughout the entire globe.

I'm with Mr. Clinton...make that imbecile "go away".

Maxine Waters

If Miss Waters were any dumber, she'd qualify for an even higher office, don't you think?

Take her for her word...that the government - OUR GOVERMENT - should take over the oil industry. Let's see...the last time OUR GOVERNMENT took over things was....ummmm....welfare....social security....medicare and medicade....need I go on?

Let's just say....ummmmm...bad idea, shall we?

And as for reelecting Miss Waters? Well, you should talk to the brain-dead Californians about that.

Ted Kennedy

My mom is a life-long registered Massachusetts democrat, my dad a republican. It was probably 20 years ago that I asked her why...even after Chappaquiddick, the known alcoholism, and other things here and there, how could she and others in Massachusetts possibly keep voting this guy back into his Senate seat? Year after year after year.

Her answer was the most profoundly honest, simple, and understandable answer to the question that I had ever heard from any American citizen - before or since - with regard to any person holding political office in this country, as she said:

"I keep voting for him because when the people of Massachusetts ask him to do something for them, he does. Every time. Without question or doubt."

My mom had just defined what a politician was SUPPOSED to be, and the conversation needed no further discussion.

May God be with you in the coming weeks, Ted.

To Blog or Not

Often times I agonize over the decision on what to blog about. Admitedly, I have hardly anyone who reads my garbage, but the topic of discussion can sometimes draw people to your blog for a one-time look and potential blast at what I say.

Several years ago, I took a direct shot at Mary Tillman....mother of former NFL star/US Army Ranger who was killed by friendly fire in Afghanistan. I felt Mrs. Tillman had taken her grief too far and too publicly, and well....there were many who disagreed with me, and I was sorry I had brought up my point of view.

Now I'm faced with it again.

Here is the story: http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/local/orl-locgirldead1708may17,0,3345936.story

To blog about it would be to open myself up to complaints about me being "Insensitive". You see, my take on this story is from a decidedly parental point-of-view, and I have questions that are hard-edged and pointed...and they are not pointed at some stranger in a black Nissan. These questions involve a lack of parental supervision...of times like 3 am and age....questions about who's running the farm - the sheep or the farmer?

MY questions would be about the obviousness of the fact this could have been prevented by something called "bed time on a school night."

But I'm "insensitive", so I won't blog about it or ask these questions.

Peace.

Wait, wait, wait, wait

I've stated several times on this blog over the years that I could care less about gay marriage, and I still stand by that. You wanna get married? Go for it. Don't say you weren't warned, though.

In any event, the California Supreme Court ruled today that banning gay marriage in favor of civil unions was unconstitutional for the following two reasons:

1. A civil union does not substitute properly for a marriage (something I can neither confirm nor deny - so I say, "Ok...I'll go along with you on that)

2. Governments do not have the right to dictate who marries whom.

Really? I beg you're pardon judges, but the government ABSOLUTELY has the right to dictate who marries whom.

Or did you not apply for and obtain a marriage license before you got hitched? Yeah...I thought so. And you had to do that because someone has to make sure 40 year old perverts are not trying to marry 11 year old girls. It's because the Constitution of the United States made it clear that polygamy was not going to be allowed, and that marriage was going to be between one man and one woman, as opposed to one man and his dog, Gertrude. Actually, the Constitution does not even provide for the right to marry. It only provides for the proper execution thereof within the laws established.

Once again, if Mary wants to marry Susan, who am I to object? But for the CA supreme court to say "the government has no right to dictate"....well that's just plain incorrect.

And they know it is, too.

Now onto what President Bush said in Israel today:

WASHINGTON - Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama accused President Bush on Thursday of launching a "false political attack" with a comment about appeasing terrorists and radicals.

In a speech to Israel's Knesset, Bush said: "Some seem to believe that we should negotiate with the terrorists and radicals, as if some ingenious argument will persuade them they have been wrong all along.

First of all, it's not a "false political attack", it's a direct political attack, one in which the "falseness" of it remains to be seen. Has Senator Obama directly stated that he wants to hold talks with Iran's Ahmedinejad?

Yes he has.

Has Ahmedinejad stated repeatedly that he is the savior sent to earth to destroy all that is not Islam?

Yes, he has.

Are Senator Obama's relationships - past and present - a cause of concern in our nation, even amongst those who support him?

Yes they are.

The solution to Senator Obama's problems would be for him to actually define himself, something he has not only been reticent to do, he has been downright defiant and frustrating to the point of screaming by not doing so. He's a proponent for change, but he won't say what kind of change. He said he's going to pull out the troops, but he won't say how or what he will do in the aftermath. Actually, this guy by the day becomes more and more of an empty suit...and the trust factor - as in, "Who the hell is this shady character?" - is becoming a frightening issue.

We've always known who the President is. He's a bungler of the language; he has issues with listening to the pulse of the nation; he absolutely abhors backing down or changing a decision. All these things can and have been problems.

But here is the thing about President Bush's problems. They are out in the open, which means at least we know where he stands 95% of the time, and we can fix some things he may have refused or was sluggish in fixing himself, because we know the cause.

You can't fix a problem that you don't know exists. And we don't know jack about Senator Obama, and to trust in him - especially now - might be the end of our nation.

I'm serious. Bush for all his bungling never scared me. He's embarrased me at times; pissed me off other times. But never frightened me.

Obama makes me look at my kids and wonder if they're going to die soon.

"So he says to me, 'You could show a little more class', and I says to him, you want class? Fuck you! How's that for class?"

"Guess I told him, huh?"

"Are you serious? Have you ever played the president? I have. Don't tell me I don't know how to run this country. Have you ever been arrested? I have. Don't tell me how to run a judicial proceeding. Have you ever been an asshole? I AM an asshole, so don't even try telling me you know more about being an asshole than I do."

((((As Allah is my witness...bitch brings up Fannie Mae one more time, I'm turning around and slapping her))))

Where have you gone 1942?
Our nation turns its lonely eyes to you.
Woo woo woo.

What's that you say, Mrs Robinson?
Common sense has left and gone away.
Hey hey hey.
Hey hey hey.

If this were 1942...things would be different. If this were 1942, Barack Obama would be on trial for treason. And he'd have company. Barack Obama is inexorably linked with some awful characters, and by awful, I mean awful.

In 1970, there was a group of assholes called "The Weather Underground". In 1970 the group issued a "Declaration of a State of War" against the United States government, under the name "Weather Underground Organization" (WUO), and members adopted fake identities and pursued covert activities. They carried out a campaign consisting of bombings, jailbreaks, and riots. Their attacks were mostly bombings of government buildings, along with several banks, police department headquarters and precincts, state and federal courthouses, and state prison administrative offices, and even the Pentagon. William Ayers and his wife Bernadine Dohrn currently live in Chicago and are long-time friends of Senator Barack Obama and his wife Michelle.

One of Barack Obama’s Middle East policy advisers disclosed yesterday that he had held meetings with the militant Palestinian group Hamas – prompting the likely Democratic nominee to sever all links with him.

Robert Malley told The Times that he had been in regular contact with Hamas, which controls Gaza and is listed by the US State Department as a terrorist organisation. Such talks, he stressed, were related to his work for a conflict resolution think-tank and had no connection with his position on Mr Obama’s Middle East advisory council.

Does this guy --- this Senator Obama ---- know who Hamas is? Does he know that if this were 1942...and he were associating with Hermann Goering, that he would be placed before a tribunal, and if convicted of treason, he would be shot?

And do Keith Olbermann and Chris Matthews - who sing the praises of this man nightly while ignoring the obvious facts of this man's cancerous relationships- know that if this were 1942, they would suffer the same fate?

Can someone tell me what has happened to the United States? Can someone tell me why we are VOLUNTARILY giving in to our own destruction?

Hide it in a hiding place where no one ever goes.
Put it in your pantry with your cupcakes.
It's a little secret, just the Robinsons' affair.
Most of all, you've got to hide it from the kids.

A coo coo ca choo Mrs Robinson.
Jesus loves you more than you will know.
Whoa whoa whoa.

Inconveniently inconvenient

I voted for current President George Bush twice. He is often made fun of for his language goofs. NEVER made fun of is the man he beat in 2000, Nobel Peace Prize and Academy Award winning Albert Gore, the presidential candidate who became only the second candidate in 200 years to fail to win his own state.

Perhaps the people of Tennessee knew more than we did?

Upon arrival in Monticello while campaigning: "And who is this bust of?" It was of course, a bust of Thomas Jefferson, since Monticello was his home.

"It's a shame when a woman has to wait a month or so to get a ....errrrr....what's it called? A sonogram on her breasts?" Mr Candidate was attending a breast cancer fund raiser.

"When my sister and I were growing up, there was no doubt that men and women were equal...if not more so." Huh?

Stumping in Milwaukee, WI - "I'm very familiar with the importance of dairy farming in Wisconsin. I've spent the night on a dairy farm here in Wisconsin. If I'm entrusted with the presidency, you'll have someone who is very familiar with what the Wisconsin dairy industry is all about." Wow...I've had 3 major strokes and spent I-can't-remember how many days in hospital beds, but that doesn't make me a neurologist.

"Speaking from my own religious tradition in this Christmas season, 2,000 years ago a homeless woman gave birth to a homeless child in a manger because the inn was full." Cool. First he invents the internet, then he re-writes the Bible, penciling in Mary and Joseph as homeless people. Did they push around their very own shopping cart, too?

"I certainly learned a great deal from 3,000 town hall meetings across my home state of Tennessee over a 16-year period" in Congress, the vice president told NPR’s Bob Edwards. Do the math. That would be a town hall meeting every other day, weekends and holidays included, for his 16 years in the service of Tennessee. And let's not even go to the fact that the people of Tennessee were always complaining he was never there.

This is the man spearheading the drive to save the Eskimo's from igloo's....errrrrr....I mean save the Eskimo's pies....or something like that. His movie, "Michael Moore's Inconvenient Midsection" won him an Oscar in the category, "Funniest film not involving Ernest going somewhere."

How come his gaffe's were/are never splashed across the news like our current English-challenged head honcho?

Hmmmmmm?

Late night post. Look, if you can see the sense in this, pass it on.

Barack Obama wants to impose a "Windfall Profits Tax" on the oil companies. Now friends, I'm not aligned in any way with big oil, nor am I an apologist for them, but the fact remains the large oil companies only make 8% profit on their product.

Granted, if you look at it as 8 cents made per dollar of gasoline, they're obviously making a crap-load of money. Record profits, as a matter of fact. And the Democrats, currently led by Barack Obama, want them to pay dammit. They must pay for their profits. They are robbing us blind, those bastards, and they must pay!!!!! THEY MUST PAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Unfortunately, there is that matter of only an 8% profit margin.

McDonald's makes 13.7% profit.

Google makes 29.4% profit.

Microsoft makes 28.3% profit.

NBC Broadcasting makes 20.5% profit.

CSX Trains makes 20.5% profit.

Okay....you get the idea. The list of major corporations in America that are making huge profits is astounding, but Senator Obama only wants to tax the oil companies, who are providing us what we absolutely need. I can exist without watching NBC TV, I could live without google, and McDonalds gives me diarrhea, a word I hate using because I can't ever friggin' spell it correctly. Soft peddaled in all of this is the fact that the oil companies are also the people who do the research and spend the money on expanding our alternative energy sources, a fact seemingly lost on Senator Obama and much of America.

Also lost on him is his law school alma mater, Harvard. Harvard currently has an endowment totalling close to $35 Billion dollars. Billion. Billion. Billion. Harvard continues to charge $57,000.00 per year for nearly 6,000 undergrads and 4,500 post grad students, and they have $35 Billion accruing interest in the bank. If they keep it in there for 10 years - and do not add or subtract from it - they'll have well over $200 Billion in 2018, and they're still charging people full price to go to their institution. At $57,000.00 per year - which hardly any other college or university is charging - Harvard could fully educate 20,000 kids a year on 1/35th of their endowment for free...but they don't.

They keep making, and they don't do any giving. And much like the other companies I mentioned, no one needs Harvard. You can get a fine education hundreds of other places.

[In any event, where's the windfall profit tax on them? Ha! You're kidding right, JL4? The government is going to tax Harvard for making a shitload of coin? Barack Obama is going to tax his alma mater? Are you trying to imply that taxation should be equal and fairly allocated to everyone and every business? What the hell is wrong with you, JL4?]

Nope....he's going to impose windfall taxes on the oil companies alone, and that's going to help out all the American people, right? Ummmmm....not right. If they're only making 8% now, and Obama wants to slam the crap out of them for making that, they're not going to LOSE money to pay their taxes....they're going to raise the price of fuel again.

Which isn't going to help anyone.

So the short version of what I'm saying is this. Yes, the oil companies make a lot of money - but they do it with volume. Of all the corporate entities in this country, they are down at the bottom of the pack with respect to taking consumer's dollars. We allow Microsoft, major universities, McDonald's, Wendy's, etc. make huuuuuuuuuge jack, and we praise them as All-American "institutions".

Exxon or Shell make money, and we vilify them and call them evil...the cause of all our woes.

As sure as I'm typing this, they couldn't possibly have it more wrong. And the one's who will lose are going to be me and you.

So you think it sucks here, eh?

Hurricane Andrew was the third most intense storm at the time of landfall to strike the U.S. mainland this century. It struck Dade county, Florida on August 24, 1992 as a category 4 hurricane. Andrew made a second U.S. landfall on a sparsely populated section of the south-central Louisiana coast as a category 3 hurricane. In southeast Florida, Louisiana, and Mississippi, rainfall totals in excess of seven inches were recorded. Rainfall amounts near five inches occurred in several neighboring states. Estimated damages in the U.S. of $25 billion make hurricane Andrew the most expensive natural disaster in U.S. history. It was reported Andrew destroyed 25,524 homes and damaged 101,241 others. Andrew was directly responsible for 26 deaths, but including indirect loss of life the death toll was 65.

An unprecedented 4 hurricanes (Charley, Frances, Ivan and Jeanne) affected Florida in 2004, and indeed no other state has been affected by four hurricanes in one season since Texas in 1886. An estimated one in five homes in Florida were damaged by hurricanes during August and September 2004 and 117 people lost their lives in the state from the storms. Charley was the worst, being a category 4 upon landfall. Ivan was a strong 3 as it hit the panhandle.

In August of 2005, Hurricane Katrina hit south Florida as a spitting rain storm, crossed into the Gulf of Mexico and gained strength, flattening parts of New Orleans and southern Louisiana. 1,836 people lost their lives as a result of the storm and the flooding.

In all, 2018 people died, mega billions of dollars in property damage occurred, and incredibly - somehow the federal government was blamed for Katrina, but that's a discussion I have no interest in getting into.

A few days ago, a Cyclone hit Myanmar (formerly Burma), a country not categorized as third world in any sense of the phrase. However, this Category 3 storm has a confirmed 23,000 dead and estimates that go as far as to say potentially 100,000 will be the final total.

Yo! This is from wind, rain, and storm surge...even less in scope than what hit New Orleans or Homestead Florida. So go ahead out there and feel free to bash our nation; feel free to slam all our policies; feel free to blame the presidency for our hurricanes; and while you're at it - feel free to purchase an airline ticket to anywhere else on the planet that you want to.

I'll even help you pack, you self-serving retard.

Somewhere out there...anywhere...there must be someone who "gets it". As mistake prone as we are, there isn't ANY other place you want to be. As "worldly insensitive" as we are accused of being by our own populace, I don't see anyone piling sandbags up in front of their homes as protection against the daily Al Quaeda car bombs that rip through our cities. As ridiculous as we can be, we're not ridiculous enough to create a situation where 100,000 Americans are going to die because of a storm. That's what happens in places like Bangladesh, which, by the way, you can get a one way ticket to for $1,965.00 on Expedia...2 stops...no hotel or rent-a-pack-mule.

Shall I book it for you?

Stephen King

I started reading Stephen King when I was a young soldier at Ft. Riley, KS. My first novel was his second...."Salem's Lot". Eventually, I joined his book club which sent me hard bound copies of each of his novels, and I read every one of them.

Yesterday, May 5th 2008, he was speaking at the Library of Congress and said the following: "...the fact is if you can read, you can walk into a job later on. If you don't, then you've got, the Army, Iraq"

Since then, Mr. King has been so swamped with Americans disgusted with his comments that he had to shut down his website. But before doing so, he issued this non-committal statement:

"That right-wing-bloggers would impugn my patriotism because I said children should learn to read, and could get better jobs by doing so, is beneath contempt. I guess they feel ignorance and illiteracy are OK when the country needs cannon-fodder. I guess they also feel that the war in Iraq has nationwide approval. Well, it doesn’t have mine. It is a waste of national resources. . . and that includes the youth and blood of the 4,000 American troops who have lost their lives there and for the tens of thousands who have been wounded. I live in a national guard town, and I support our troops, but I don’t support either the war or educational policies that limit the options of young men and women to any one career—military or otherwise."

Mr. King is trying to claim he doesn't understand why people are mad at him, which is 100% bullshit. That's why his statement was his opinion about the Iraq war and our educational system, not a retraction of his deplorable statement about the military. As a matter of fact, he never even addressed what the whole flap is all about!!!

Why is it American's like him, John Kerry, and several other prominent political and social personalities feel it's their God-given right to take unsolicited pot-shots at the men and women of our Armed Forces? Even Keith Olbermann, one of the most liberal President-Bush-hating, Iraq-war-hating television people in this country, never takes a shot at the soldiers and the marines. He doesn't because he knows to do so would be to submerge himself below contempt, and he has enough dignity and intelligence to avoid such a stupid pratfall. Mr. King isn't worth the time it took to type this blog, to be quite honest. I wish I had never purchased a single book from him, especially since obviously I can't read anyways.

Hey, I have an idea!

Let's all go on TV and start publicly hacking on kids in wheelchairs, fireman who die in burning warehouses, single moms who have to work 3 jobs, and poor welfare recipients who would rather not be. Wouldn't that be funny? And we could do it because we have the First Amendment to back us up.

And who is it that has allowed the First Amendment to exist for over 200 years?

Oooooops.

Men

This is for women to absorb and understand. Knowing these little factoids can go a long ways towards understanding your relationship(s).

• Men should never carry an umbrella. It's rain, not sulfuric acid. Water. If a man insists, at the very least it has to be one of those large two color golf umbrella's. If you're with a man who has a foot long black pop-up umbrella, dump him....fast.
• Women who wish their man were more sensitive are wishing for the wrong thing. Crudeness is unacceptable of course, but don't expect us to cry when "Two-socks" dies at the end of Dances with Wolves. Male interior designers are sensitive...but they tend to like other male interior designers, so I guess the choice is yours.
• Nope...we don't need to pull over and ask where Pine Street is. Because we don't, that's why.
• We don't really like cats, and if we tell you we like yours, it's because we want to keep going out with you.
• Ok. About terminology. If we are over the age of 40, we are not now nor will we ever be your boyfriend. We can be a lot of other things, but not that. We're too old to be boys.
• Important dates on the calendar are reserved for Super Bowl Sunday, the Masters, and Thanksgiving and Christmas. The sixth anniversary of our first kiss is not in there. We can and should be expected to know wedding anniversaries and kids' birthdays, for sure. Other than that, end of conversation.
• We absolutely adore a woman who knows the difference between an inning and a quarter, but it's not a requirement.
• Peach and Pumpkin are fruits, not colors. Speaking of fruits, the aforementioned interior designer knows what Peach paint looks like. Ask him.
• If you want to call it a sofa, that's fine with us. Likewise, us calling it a couch should be fine with you.
• Campbell's soup IS cooking. Yes it is. It involves a pan with a handle and the stove. That's cooking.
• We're simple creatures. When we say nothing is wrong, we actually mean it. You however....
• Generally speaking, we try to handle our emotional needs internally. It's not that we're experts on the subject...it's because we don't believe in making someone else shoulder our burden. Are you listening out there?
• Mega-important rule (especially for blogger women). The fact that you had a few bad relationships/marriages is not necessarily the fault of the male of the species. Believe it or not, you could be the problem. Really. It just might be you.
• We love you, but are sometimes remiss at showing/saying it. We need you, but are reticent to admit it. We would be lost without you, and we're too stubborn to ask for directions on how to get un-lost.

But don't get cocky, alright?

Global Warming

Surge in fatal shark attacks blamed on global warming.

It's true...scientists said it was. Who is going to argue with scientists? What? Other scientists? Oh....I forgot about the scientists that aren't totally whacked out.

Here is the current up to date listing of everything that is caused by global warming - in link format - so you can see where the "researchers" found their inconvenient data.

Enjoy....I didn't make this stuff up...especially the ones where they say "More bad hair days", and "Truffle Shortages". The "scientists" did.

See for yourself...http://www.numberwatch.co.uk/warmlist.htm

What's in a word, after all?

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact...it's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration...it's a dare. Impossible is potential. Great men prove all the time that impossible is stupid. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing."

I like this guy

Bill Bradley is a talented man. An All-American basketball player as Princeton, he was drafted in the first round of the NBA draft, an amazing accomplishment for an intellectual from Princeton. He ended up in both the college and professional Halls of Fame.

It was once rumored that out of boredom, he decided to memorize the entire NYC phone book.
He went on to become a prominent Senator from New Jersey, and even put his hat into the ring once for election to the presidency.

But he's not what this is about.

In the spring of 2004, there was a fundraising dinner for Senator John Kerry. Over 5000 people at a minimum of $5000 a plate were assembled for dinner in this enormous ballroom in New York.

Senator Bradley asked a waiter for an extra stick of butter. The waiter politely told him, "No sir. One butter per person sir; I have strict orders."

The Emcee of the affair overheard the conversation, and abruptly called the waiter off to the side. "Do you know who that is?" he asked the waiter. "That's Senator Bill Bradley, college and professional hall of fame player and former candidate for president of the United States. I can't believe you don't know who he is."

The waiter calmly replied, "And do you know who I am?"

The emcee stated that he did not.

"I'm the guy in control of the butter."

Our nation has developed into a collective of emcee's. We all want to both name-drop as well as find excuses for everything. We need more people who are "in control of the butter", and I don't mean only in a presidential or governmental sense, I mean you, me, and our neighbors too. The more we take responsibility for our own butter, the better off we'll all be.
