The GM Union Bail Out: Short Of Sounding Like A Conspiracy Theorist

The first big victim of the Union Bailout Scam has been hit. Dayton Ohio will close it's GM plant, forever changing the landscape of a once thriving city. Many of the city's financial infrastructures are dependent on GM's business needs.

The image I have going in my head is of three men in suits, armed with assault rifles and wearing ski masks standing above about a dozen people kneeling and blindfolded. One of them is on the floor bleeding; he has been shot in the head. As the other hostages quake with fear one of the men in suits yells in a burly voice, "Alright, listen up! We demand 25 Billion dollars in unmarked bills or else the rest of these dopes are gonna take a dirt nap."

As some have mentioned, this entire bailout business is nothing more than the biggest heist in history. The cost to us, the tax payer, will be in the trillions and least for generations to come. What is peculiar about this is that this plant is the only one owned by GM that is not under control of the United Auto Workers. This stinks something rotten. So with this move, the UAW becomes the only union in charge of GM production and sends a message to Washington at the same time.

Meanwhile, the auto manufacturers not controlled by unions are not in such dire straits as the big three. Do you see the connection here? The unions are pulling the strings. These crooks are holding our economy hostage for billions of dollars. These same crooks openly endorsed Barack Obama for the presidency. The crooks of Wall Street also have deep connections to Obama. Franklin Raines and Jim Johnson were both CEOs of Fannie Mae and were key political and economic advisors during his presidential campaign.

The thing that is the funniest about this whole deal is that since most of the country, about ¾ of this country, are unhappy with the Bush administration, blame will forever be passable to his administration, even as they rob us blind. They will use this manufactured crisis to grow government and increase taxes. Yeah, this is "change" alright, from one set of crooks to another. Except these guys are bigger and claim to be champions of the "little guy".

Get ready America, it's going to be a bumpy ride.

Anyone Else Getting This? Why Are We Being Coached By Democrats?

The very idea seems absurd to me. It would be as if we went to WWII and asked the Germans how the Allies could hope to win more battles. You think they are going to be honest? Even worse, they have on Democrat columnists and Loser Republicans. Republicans who say that we should move to the so called center. It didn't work out so well for them did it? Leave it to CCCPNN, Faux News and MSBDSM (OK, I'm having too much fun here) to say that the Republican party is not enough like the Democrat party.

They attribute this fact as our downfall when it really couldn't be further from the truth. The nation is sick of Center-Left policies, it's just that those policies have been implemented, to our shame, by the GOP. Bush increased spending and government interference, something you would expect a Democrat to do. So it is no wonder that we elected Barack Obama. He labeled the liberal policies of George Bush as Conservative and told America that it was time for "Change" by moving even further to the left. The people swallowed this tripe in large part because the GOP failed to educate them.

Obama didn't win this election, we lost it and handed this socialist our nation on a silver platter.

Move more to the center? I don't think so.

There is a war of ideals going on today. The fighting is within the Republican party and it is ferocious to say the least. On one side, there are the centrist blue blood country club republicans and on the other side are the social and fiscal conservatives.

I was just listening to Lou Dobbs and he had on a man who is pushing for the GOP to become more centrist. He was a former staff member of Rudy Giuliani, unfortunately I didn't remember his name. It was really funny to listen to really. Rush Limbaugh had mentioned that the media would make it a habit of bring on analysis of people who lost and ask them how their party can win. So in this case, it was the loser (Giuliani) who lost to the loser (McLame) telling us that conservatism doesn't work and that it can't win.

He went on to say that Social conservatives are a dying breed. He pulled some numbers out of his ass that McCain only won voters over 65 and voters in towns no larger than 50,000 in size. That may be true, but it doesn't mean that social conservatives are scarce, it just means that many social conservatives did not vote, or voted for Obama out of spite.

If it is true that Social conservatism is dying, then explain to me how in the biggest liberal state in the country, Proposition 8 (the vote to ban gay marriage) won the ballot. We won 52% against 48% and of those 48%, many may include people who still think homosexuality is wrong, but voted against it on more libertarian reasons of non intrusion. Heck even Obama himself, mister radical left wing has stated his opposition to homosexuality, even if they choose to vote in favor for non intrusion reason.

So don't try to tell me social conservatism is dead. This is a concentrated attack by the country club republicans to team up with the left wing media and destroy the traditionalist conservative movement. Our only response is to clear them out.

Be Strong, Not Mean Mr. McCain

Our liberalized society has over the years grown intolerant of harsh realities. Prepubescent minded adults complain about how unfair the world is. They complain so much, that they believe anyone who spouts fairy tale Utopian gunk from the podium (IE Obama). My friend, an Obama supporter, God bless his ignorant brain, is convinced that once Obama becomes President, all of our enemies (who of course to a liberal nimrod, believes that the evil out there was caused by us) will want to reconsider their ways. The islamofascists will want to talk instead of saw off heads of innocent prisoners while they are still alive. North Korea will, in all it's communist glory, throw away their oppressive government system, which they only enacted to protect their citizens from being corrupted by ideals of American greed. The world will love us again, the polar ice caps will be reborn so that penguins and polar bears can fornicate to Jerry Garcia and all will be right with the world.

My point is, these people live in fairly land. In my world, in John McCain's world and in the world of your average conservative, thousands of people lost their lives on 9/11, Islamofacists make no mention of capitalism or greed, rather Islamic world domination. Like all dictatorships, North Korea seeks nukes as leverage so they can assure their rule does not come to an end. And the liberal courts grant rights to our enemies who fight to destroy rights.

It is not a pretty thing, but it is as real as it gets. McCain needs to express that. The problem is that he can come off mean, and he probably is. Regardless, the media would portray him as a jerk, even if he weren't. Americans, the undecided moderates anyway, may not like partisanship or anger, but they love leadership and patriotism. McCain has that in spades. If only he would spend more time talking about how great our nation is, in contrast to Obama's gloom and hatred for what this country stands for.

He needs to stop focusing on how many times he betrayed the conservative values to show everyone just how bi-partisan he is (which is what Obama wants). Stand up for America! Take charge. Ignore Obama and his fanatics. They do a good job of making fools of themselves. Focus on the realities not your relationship to GWB.

America is in a financial crisis. The vultures responsible for it have been put in charge of fixing it. GWB as well as the GOP fought to reform Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and the DEMS stood in the way. We want a leader, Mr. McCain. Moderates want a leader, not a panderer. Obama doesn't pander, he has one of the worst bipartisan records in the senate. 96 Percent voting on party lines, yet he is still more popular. Throw your pre-information age common sense out the window and fight like hell in 08'.

McCain: So we cool, dawg? .... Not exactly

I have made my choice to vote for McCain. It was refreshingly challenging to actually think about the consequences of my vote. I weighed voting, not voting and getting others to vote McCain while I held my vote in protest.

I agree with McCain on a slew of issues. There are other things I disagree with him on. Immigration and campaign financing to name a couple. But on the war, yes. Taxes, Yes. Abortion, Yes. Traditional Marriage, Yes. His choice for VP, Yes.

The issues on Obama however, I cannot think of any issue I agree with. The War, No. Abortion, No. Affirmative Action, No. Reparations, No (He said he does not believe in Reparations, which is true, but only because his extremely leftist mind thinks reparations are TOO LITTLE), Immigration, No. Foreign Policy, No. Health care, No. In fact, give me an issue he stands by and you will hear nothing by, "NO" from me.

But don't think I will let old Johnny off the hook. His pick of Sarah Palin did not please me because she is conservative. It pleased me because it showed his ability to listen to his base. I am not saying to be controlled by his base, but that he has the ability to listen to the people. We conservatives also took stances against the current President, GWB, on issues like port security, immigration (in which he was agreement with John McCain, and Ted Kennedy **shudder**), and Harriet Miers.

If McCain tries to give the Illegals amnesty, we will be there to knock him down (along with the democrats who will try to knock anything he does down because they are petty weak creatures).

I will be voting for Senator McCain, and I have even volunteered my time for his campaign. But don't think I won't call him on anything remotely liberal that he tries.

The Dems Are Confused, the Right Is Fired Up

Sarah Palin's selection in the GOP Veepstakes has surprised a lot of people. Especially the left. So certain that she will doom McCain's campaign, they talk about her as a choice endlessly. In fact, I am at work typing this and I am currently listening to my ultra leftist co workers try to figure out McCain's pick. Conspiracy theories are running wild, discussions of her so called inexperience are being thrown about and heads are spinning. They talk more about her than Obama's acceptance speech.

I for one am trying to figure out this pick as well. I know there is a strategy out there somewhere. And it ain't trying to get the women vote. Behind every simple intention lies a more complicated strategy.

What I can say about the pick is that it succeeded to do at least two things. Energize the conservative base and still distance the campaign from the Washington insider image.

I look forward to seeing more of this as it unfolds.

Wha--? I don't get it

You know, you just can't go to bed anymore knowing how you will react tomorrow. I remember on 8-7-08 wondering how they were going to cover the 08' Olympics. I turned on the news Friday morning and instead of seeing an opening ceremony, I saw Russian tanks rolling into Georgia.

Now today, I can recall thinking about who McCain will pick to be his VP. I personally was pulling for Mitt. I value his economic experience, and thought his expertise in dealing with economies and working with the dems in the liberal state of Massachusetts was invaluable. I even understood the possibility of a woman VP through Kay Bailey Hutchinson. I had no problem with that. I don't have a problem with gender. Heck, I would vote for a black woman if she were conservative.

So it was an immense surprise to me when McCain picked this relative newbie to be his VP. She has some time as a mayor of a small city and was Governor of Alaska for two years, but is that enough experience should McCain fall ill or God forbid, die while in office? Would she be ready to lead the free world?

Inexperience is Obama's main flaw and we were good at exploiting it. Now McCain goes out and chooses someone who, while more experienced that Obama, is certainly not a heavyweight politician. A strong VP choice would have solidified his resume to the American People, now it seems he may have weakened himself. Perhaps he thinks a female voter boost will compensate for that. But only time will tell.

As for me, I do not know enough about her to make any criticisms, so I guess I will have to see how this plays out.

Peace Kills: Part 1

Peaceniks are the worst people on earth. They have caused more atrocities and allowed more people to suffer than so called "War Hawks". It is so easy for those living in safe conditions, like the United States or in Europe to chant, "Give peace a chance".

First case
There was no war during the cold war between Russia, China and America, yet during the cold war, over 150,000,000 innocent civilians perished under Soviet rule. Whether in the gulags or out of starvation, or good ol' fashion class cleansing. Take into account that during the Holocaust a total of 6,000,000 Jews were exterminated. The atrocities of innocent life compared to another simply dwarfs the idea that peace equates to life and liberty.

Second case
Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The two cities destroyed by Atomic weapons. Total deaths, estimated at over 350,000. Some in the US are actually sorry about the attacks. So while I certainly do not take joy in the fact that 350,000 innocent men women and children died in those bombings, a rational human being must regard the 10,000,000 innocent Chinese civilians, raped, tortured and murdered by Imperial Japanese forces and it becomes apparent that this empire needed to fall. Also, it is estimated that in order to launch an invasion of mainland Japan, American losses would have totaled between 500,000 and 1,000,000.

Why I admire the atom bomb
The Soviet Union and the United States along with Europe faced the possibility of another world war shortly after the second one ended. What kept the Allies from launching attacks on Moscow or Red Army troops from crossing into Alaska? Mutual fear of an atomic strike. The thing most people do not understand is that the weapons purpose is to never use it. An international insurance policy if you will. With technology advancing as it did during WWII, modern global imperialism was more a reality then than it had ever been before. The nuclear stand off kept a much bloodier world war from taking place potentially saving hundreds of millions of lives.

Why should they get reparations?

Honestly, no one has ever been able to properly explain to me how a person who was never directly affected by a person or group of persons who have been dead for over a hundred years should be paid a settlement. It would be like the grandson of a murderer going to jail for his grandfather's crimes. It just makes no sense to me or to anyone who does not live with their heads in the clouds.

Yes slavery was bad, but think of the accomplishments since that dark era. Equality has come a long way since then. Of course it's not perfect, but then again, what in life is?

What is left is not a discriminatory government, but rather a prejudice culture. Prejudice, like it or not, because the black community enforces these prejudices. They embody them and instead of denounce them, take pride in them. The black community demands that WE adapt to their whims. We however do not demand they adapt. But we do decide who and how we choose to associate with them and their community.

The black community stands for hand outs (affirmative action and reparations), sexual infidelity(just think, "My baby's mamma"), drug abuse(Pot and liquor abuse culture), female degradation, violence and obsessive greed(have you ever seen a rap video?). All of these cultural identities are not acceptable to the rest of society. That is why we guard our wallets when a man dressed as a hoodlum strolls next to us. This is why we are less than surprised when we hear of the staggering homicide rates in the ghettos. It is not because we are racist, it is because the black community is a walking billboard for prejudice.

No one is guaranteed anything in life. Whether you are white or black or Asian, you are not even guaranteed survival out of the womb. What we make, we make for ourselves. America has been ready for quite some time to heal the racial tensions, but we are waiting for the black community to heal itself, lest it infects the rest of us.

The nerve of some people

Source

These monsters kill over 200 hundred civilians in a terrorist attack and they have the nerve to ask for a painless execution. They have been sentenced to death by firing squad, and complain that sometimes the condemned do not die fast enough causing unnecessary suffering. Unnecessary suffering?! They killed over 200 hundred innocent people. The explosions would have ripped many of them to shreds while leaving a few unlucky individuals alive to bleed to death or trying to gather their intestines in agony. A firing squad is too good for them. They should have their limbs hacked off and forced to watch as wild dogs devour them. Then they can slowly bleed to death. No mercy for monsters. Send them to hell in agony!

Lessons I Learned From A Drunk Republican

I volunteered to help sign up citizens to vote last weekend behind a line of ironing boards acting as a portable table at the Union Street festival. As you could imagine, signing up Republicans in San Francisco would be met with resistance by the liberal elitists.

While there, I was accused of being a war monger, challenged by several liberals and even accused of wanting to "Lynch" little old ladies in the bay area. Needless to say, I had a blast. Call me crazy, but I rather enjoy the tension and confrontations.

With San Francisco being so one sided, it is nice to blast their single minded world view with a hefty dose of Conservatism. The poor close minded fools.

The day started to wind down with the festival and some people had already had a bit too much to drink. This included a middle aged Jewish Republican who decided to spend the next half hour talking about how disgraceful our showing (IE our shanty of a sign up desk made up of ironing boards) was.

He would slur, "Is thish the besht you republicans can get?! What are ya' even tryin' to do? Thish is pathetic!" The insults kept coming. And for some parts, I sympathized with him. The GOP after all has been shooting itself in the foot for over a decade now and the conservative base is weary of the GOP's waning from its core beliefs.

He asked what it was I hoped to accomplish behind the shabby table. I told him, "As much as I can." He laughed and told me it was pointless. A man scorned by his own party. It's not like I didn't relate. Here we have a lame excuse for a candidate who is almost as liberal as his opponents running under the Republican banner, continuing the dreadful course to liberalism, country club conservatism and rejection of conservative values.

I watched him whine and eventually he left. But it was his actions I learned from that day. Or rather his lack of action. Normally it would be a fight against the left and the Democrat party, but now and in the dark days ahead, it will be against the Democrats and the usurpers trying to destroy conservatism itself from within our own Republican Party.

Despite the grim task ahead, I am emboldened by great men like George Washington, Thomas Edison, Abraham Lincoln, George S Patton and Ronald Reagan, just to name a few, who went against even greater odds and emerged victorious.

I have made my decision to fight, ironing boards and all.

What words mean. Freedom of Speech Defined

Freedom of speech. It's great isn't it? No matter how much damage I think certain forms of speech cause, it is important to remember our responisibility as Americans to hold this important right near and dear to our hearts.

It's just a movie. It's just a song. It's just a play. Has anyone said something similar to you? Well I sure have. To the passive masses, this would seem true. But what do, "American Idiot", "Hair" and "Lions of Lambs" have in common? The excuse, "It's just entertainment".

Many patriotic Americans have had the wool pulled over their eyes while chanting the leftist mantra, "It's just entertainment". It's not just entertainment, it is the calculated assault of leftist anti-American propaganda coated in the guise of entertainment. Their product has a purpose and a message that is specifically aimed at enforcing the rule of law that has supported all Draconian dictatorships. The law that states, "If you say a lie long enough and loud enough, eventually it will become true". What better way for a lie to be said enough and loud enough than when it is in the top 10 of the music charts?

I am rarely surprised by the propaganda tactics of the fascist left anymore. But I amazed at how well they have been able to convince the nation that it is close minded to disagree with their marxist messages. They have effectively convinced the patriots to lower their guard. I mean who cares if Julia Roberts supports infanticide, right? Who cares if Rage Against the Machine insults Christians? Who cares if Michael Moore's movies are requested in bulk by Hamas to further indoctrinate their youth? You obviously don't. You would allow this nation to crumble just to protect your image as an "Open minded individual". So instead of standing for what you believe, you accept the unacceptable and promote the damaging filth that seeks to destroy our republic.

Hail Obama! Take your pick, Obamists or Obamites

Rarely can you find such fanaticism nowadays that isn't tied to religion or fascism. Obama is these poor souls savior. Blind followers who are devoted to, "change", even if they do not know exactly how. But far be it for us to even dare to ask how from the Mocha Messiah.

Often times in hardships, or at least perceived hardships, the most radical of people often find themselves in positions of power when they exploit the emotions of the troubled masses. Adolf Hitler, Chairman Mao, Joseph Stalin and Fidel Castro are only a few dictators who come into mind when the going gets rough.

Well, if Obama wins, it will partially be our fault. Bush has been a poor example of true conservative leadership and has damaged the image of the party. Over the last eight years, Bush has been on the lips of the ivory tower pinheads preaching down to the impressionable youth who seek higher education and instead receive political re-education. The media and entertainment industry was an excellent propaganda machine and still is as they praise Obama night and day.

Obama in some ways has my respect as a true example of propaganda at its worst. The unstoppable combination of secrecy, charm and danger. But much like the Ron Paul fanatics, anything bad about his past is instantly turned into a conspiracy theory cooked up by everyone from Oil companies to right wingers.

Heck, why not just let Obama avoid paying taxes. He's practically a religion. My friend is an rabid Obama supporter. He is constantly trying to get me to vote for Obama because of my disgust with McCain. Now, I may want to deport McCain to Mexico and revoke his citizenship, but it's not like I like Obama any better.

The difference between people like me and Obamists, is that I know that my candidates are human, they are corruptible and sometimes down right sleazy. In fact, that is why I am conservative. To keep government small so that when sleaze-bags do manage to get into office, the damage they can do is severely lessened. Unlike the liberals who see government as the end all, be all, solution to the problems of the world. So when I see the wonder in their pot reddened eyes, clasping their hearts for their savior, Barack Hussein Obama, it almost breaks my heart.

One thing I do take away from his popularity is that our country is in distress. Only through extreme fear, poverty or dissatisfaction can people like Obama thrive.

An important time in our generation for the next generation

What is a Republican? Should one who considers himself a Republican even ask such a question? My friends, the party is in distress and we are approaching a turning point in our party's history. Many of you, whether Republican, Democrat or other, know how distressed the conservative base of the Republican base is when it comes to the issue of our front runner, John McCain.

John McCain represents what is wrong with this party in general. A desperate to please, group of establishment Republicans have hailed his coming and pushed for true conservatives to embrace him as our leader, despite his history of backstabbing and liberal behavior.

This last Friday, the California Republican Party held its spring convention right here in San Francisco. I volunteered my time to help out with the banquet. Essentially, I collected tickets at the front door. Nothing glamorous, but I like to help out when I can. The event was itself very nice and I got to see a few well known faces speak.

I wore a tan blazer with two pins on my lapel, one a pin with a Republican elephant on it. The pin said, Proud California Republican (I hope that does not put me in the same position as Schwartzanegger) and one American Flag pin that I made sure was positioned over the Republican pin. After all, my alliagence is to this country, not the party. And as long as the party continues to represent the best interest of the nation, I will support that party.

That is what brings me to this current state of dispair. I feel that a wide base of the Republican Party is so affraid of a Clinton or Obama administration that they are willing to settle for someone they do not want. This can be disasterous for the party and the country in general. We, the proud conservative base, boast our resistance to terrorist threats. We will not be moved to action by threats. But that is what is happening within our own party. The McCain camp is intent on convincing us that even if we do not agree all the time, he would be better than an evil Hillary or Obama ticket.

Fear works on the weak minded Mr. McCain, but not the objective minded conservatives who have bravely broken ranks with the establishment Republicans to say, "No!". My hatred for Hillary will not be enough to push me in your direction. To quote General George S. Patton, "I would rather have the Germans in front of me instead of the French behind me." I want to have the enemy in my sight. Not representing MY party.

Lets look at things realistically here. I will remain a Republican, and a proud one at that. To share the same party title as Abraham Lincoln, Ronald Reagan and Barry Goldwater is a great honor to me. And it is that honor that makes me so certain that we as a party cannot accept a status quo. We cannot be bullied by fear coming from our own party members. And we cannot vote for McCain.

Let us swallow our pride and prepare for 2010 and 2012 which, by then should have sent a clear message to the Party. We want conservative leadership, not an altamatum. We want a Republican, not a RINO. We survived Clinton for 8 years, we can do it again if neccessary.

If McCain wins

If Senator John "RINO" McCain wins the party's nomination, then my faith in the Republican party will be extremely damaged. I may not even vote. Or worse yet, consider voting for.......Hillary. BLEAH!!!

I never, ever thought I would say such a thing. Such is my disgust with McCain. I would rather have an enemy in the White House, than an enemy who claims to by my ally. I am hoping for a Romney victory, but even then I will not be as happy.

The shame is that this year I finally registered as a declared Republican for the first time. I had always been a conservative individual who always voted Republican, but I never joined because I am not a party loyalist Per Se. I am an American first and foremost. If anyone tries to destroy my country, they will find me in their way. If the Republican party decides that it is more important to win elections, even with the wrong individuals, then I will have to fight them as well.

It's sad really. I was just named the San Francisco Republican Party's volunteer of the month. So it's not as if I am just some closet liberal. I love what the party traditionally stands for. I hate what it is becoming.

No more will I allow the argument of, "choosing the lesser of two evils" dictate how I vote. But it may be important, as my father had mentioned, that we get our butts kicked a little to empower the conservative base. Maybe we need a few years of Clinton to enrage the right and get it back on track.

Well, if McCain gets nominated, it will be a lose lose situation. And when the country starts to crumble, I would rather it be a Democrat in the hot seat instead of a Republican.

My Meeting with the San Francisco Young Republicans

What a breath of fresh air. Last night I was able to finally attend a SFYR meeting. I have lived in SF for over a year, and during that time, I have had contact with nothing but Bush bashing, GITMO hating, pro tax, pro infanticide, pinko Commie leftists, and despite my tolerant nature, it was honestly starting to get to me.

Since here in the city, the amount of liberals is tantamount to the number of sands in the Sahara, the SFYR meeting was like an oasis. I had the pleasure of meeting many young, like minded individuals who were more than happy to have me there. In a packed section of Azul's near Union Square, we mixed and mingled while sipping drinks.

This was my first meeting of the sort, and I was half expecting a classroom-like situation. I would have been fine with that too. But the friendly atmosphere in that bar was very nice. A few drinks later we went over voting stances for the local ballots. The special speaker for the night was a member of the Giuliani campaign.

From what I gathered, many of them were not too happy with the mostly moderate contenders in the current GOP race. Many of us, including myself wished for another Ronald Reagan or Barry Goldwater to sweep us off our feet and save this nation from another term of do-nothing politics.

I was a little upset to learn that all these monthly meetings occur on Tuesday nights, and I have night classes to attend. Regardless, I look forward to special events on the weekends and have even volunteered to help register voters this Saturday at the Ferry building near the financial district of San Francisco.

Well, until next time,

Victory,

The San Francisco Conservative.

Pot Religion

Pot is not addictive, pot is not harmful, pot does not control your actions. BULLSHIT! Living in San Francisco gives me a daily exposure to pot culture and the three statements above are complete lies. While it is true that some people are not as addicted to pot as some other mind altering narcotics, nevertheless, when you see a pot smoker offered some pot and s/he has not smoked in a while, their eyes will light up, their mouths salivate and they will utter something like, "Oh my God, I haven't had a hit in so long!" In fact, a friend of mine, who is constantly high, explains that he cannot function without pot and that he gets withdrawals.

Living on the outskirts of the Tenderloin (The bad part of the city) has shown me the harmful effects of smoking weed as well as the damaging effects of liberalism. Pot stifles creativity, motivation and personal responsibility. What could be more harmful than that? Studies now show a pattern of mental problems occurring in repeat pot smokers. And ask any worker at a rehabilitation center how their patients are, and they will tell you some of the saddest stories told.

Finally, they insist that pot does not alter their minds. Again, I think that it is the drugs talking. How would they know how rational they are when they are too high to know any better? And even if they asked their friends, chances are, they were high too. I however, always pass on getting high. In all honesty, acting like an idiot does not appear on my "Things to do" List. I have seen completely rational people do things they normally would not do when high.

Oh, and don't even try to convince a pot head that pot is in any way, shape or form, harmful. They will fight back like a religious zealot. Today, the police suspected that pot might have been a factor in the recent tiger mauling at the SF zoo. To this, immediate, completely biased scoffs could be heard by pot heads in my office. To them, it is simply impossible that pot could have caused them to taunt the tiger.

Ok, so what is the point of this blog. To rip on pot heads? To boost my ego? No. If you smoke pot, that is your deal. I actually support legalization for financial reasons. But don't try to convince anyone that it does nothing. Don't lie to people and try to convince them that there would be no side effects. Especially since pot smoking is so popularized and children, who rarely ask why (With exceptions to the terrible twos) are the most at risk, and pots new recruits.

A new year, a new post. Thoughts of the campaign trail

Yes, it's the new year. It's also going to be a very political year. This is of course very interesting for me, and devistating for other members of my family who will now have to deal with the TV constantly being tuned onto Fox News, MSNBC and CNN (Yes, I watch all three). Both the left and the right will be considering this to be the race that determines the fate of our nation.

However, don't think that if a Republican wins, that everything will be great. There are a lot of RINOs in the race this year, and it is up to us to remind them that we pull the strings. We, the true conservatives.

McCain has always bugged me. Should he get in, his love fest with illegal immigrants and friendly relations to uber-leftists will have to be under close scrutiny.

I, like many other Republicans are still undecided. Quite frankly, I wish there was another choice. (And no, I don't mean Ron Paul) Out of all those running, I tend to like Romney and Thompson the best. But at any rate, I would vote for just about anyone other than Hillary or Obama.

We are not electing a king after all. Just because we get a GOP president doesn't mean that we can all start relaxing. Take Bush for example. If it were not for the powerful outrage against "shamnesty" and the appointing of leftist, Harriiet Myers and the support of giving our eastern ports to Dubai, Bush would have approved all those things.

Should the unthinkable happen and Hillary or Obama get in, it could in some ways be a blessing in disguise. Nothing, short of another terrorist attack on our soil can mobilize the right quite like a Hillary/Communist Healthcare scheme or Obama/Terrorist Love fest.

The Reason For The Season

"Tis' the season". But, what is the season exactly? For millions of people, it is the celebration of Christmas, the time of year when we remember the night that God gave his only Son to us so that we may all obtain salvation.

Sometimes that message can be lost amongst the lights and gift giving that consumes the month of December. Now don't get me wrong, I love the lights and festivities. It gives me that great warm fuzzy feeling.

This December, however, has been full of sadness as I have just lost my Grandmother. On December 11th, 2007, the Lord called my grandma home and we are left here on earth mourn her passing. It's a strange feeling of both sadness and joy as we remember just how much we will miss her, while we rejoice that she is now in Heaven and that we will see her again, even though it will not be here on Earth.

Love is the reason for the season. "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, so that those whosoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have ever lasting life." Let us never forget this. Because of God's love, we have a chance for salvation and peace.

We give gifts because we love to see our friends and family happy. Because we love them. As long as we keep this important fact about Christmas alive, no manner of evil, corporate shallowness, or political correctness can ruin Christmas

Liberals: Simple people, with simple problems and simple solutions

What do you see when you look at the ground? Chances are you are thinking, "pavement" or "concrete", which is fine. It is a simple view of what it is. Not everything has to be complicated. No need to consider that it is a product of thousands of years of innovation or even to consider the engineering feats needed to make it.

But there are some things that are not simple. Liberals however would like to state that it is simple. Everything is simple and therefore everything has a simple answer if only we "evil conservatives" would get out of their way.

Global warming is simple according to them. They say that we are speeding up global warming because we use too much oil. Because we use aerosol cans. Never mind that all the experts state that there are over 600 individual factors contributing to global warming.

It's like you can't turn on the tv or watch a movie without some sort of green propaganda showing the water levels rising so much that it wipes out humanity in seconds. Sure it makes for a great action sequence, but the committee in charge of Global warming research at the UN of all places says that according to their "models", that the water level is expected to rise about 3 feet in the NEXT 100 YEARS!!! That's roughly one foot every 33 years, That's incredibly SMALL!

Here's a premise that is not so simple, so liberals, you may want to turn on John Stuart now and leave this to the adults. Think about this. During the Clinton administration, old buddies from Enron had a meeting with the Clintons and good old "Saint" Gore to discuss the business benefits of the Kyoto protocol. Business benefits?? What ever could those be?

Tell me, what is more profitable than an energy source that everyone has pretty much no choice but to buy? Give up? A forced outsourcing of our energy needs to lesser nations. Cheaper nations. Step one, make it illegal to drill for oil locally citing environmental reasons. (ANWAR and the Gulf of Mexico) Step two, enforce Kyoto protocol to make only lesser nations who do not fall under Kyoto principles the only nations that can produce oil. You get it cheap, and then sell it at 100 bucks a barrel because the area is foreign and politically unstable. Sound familiar? Wait, it gets better.
Now, create an advertising platform where your target audience can feel like good people for helping the environment by buying your over priced "green" products like eco friendly lightbulbs and hybrid cars. Then make certain cheap items illegal. Here in San Francisco, they have outlawed plastic bags. I went grocery shopping today and it was a living hell. A few of the bags ripped causing the contents to spill out onto the floor and they were so bulky that they would not fit in the trunk of a taxi that had over half it's space filled with a NATURAL GAS TANK!

Ok, so for the liberals. Here it is plain and simple. Green is a SCAM! There are whole new industries starting up that are making money off laws you promote. Did you know that there is now an entire industry devoted to regulating "carbon credits"? Did you know that before Enron went under, that it was the biggest supporter of "green" technology and that GE and BP helped set it up to make them more money? Yes folks, it's all about the green.
