Opinion

Hate to be partisan but…

When there’s a Republican in the president’s seat, the democrats hate the military.  When there’s a Democrat in the White House, they praise the military and want to pen resolutions thanking them for heroic duty.  Can you say hypocrites?!?!?

It’s killing them to say it but…

They are trying so hard not to be positive but it looks as though we have another crisis that wasn’t http://news.yahoo.com/s/time/20110419/hl_time/08599206603100

1 Question

I have one simple question for anyone out there who checks in at my page. Who do the democrats that fled Wisconsin to avoid doing their jobs, represent? To me it would appear that they represent the union and not the people who voted them into office. The only protesters out there are union supporters, [...]

Abortion Statistics

This is sad data being reported on our society. I’m currently reading the book, Unplanned. Very telling, real life story of a former Planned Parenthood director in Texas. I highly recommend everyone read it. http://cnsnews.com/news/article/nearly-50-million-abortions-have-been-pe

This just proves they don’t get it and never will!

It’s all about getting the power back. No idea why they lost it. Bunch of brainless idiots. http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/136309-dem-campaign-chief-goal-is-making-pelosi-speaker-again

$600K for a food bank distribution center??

I heard this on an AM station today from the Waterloo area. They are applying for a $600 federal grant to build a distribution center for the local food bank. I just want to know why we even need food banks with all the current welfare available out there. Who is eating all this food [...]

How out of touch is our president?

So I just heard on the radio that BO is having a meeting with CEO’s today to say, “Hey, you guys gotta start hiring.” Really? The POTUS is going to tell heads of private industry to start hiring. Like a demand or something? Do it now or else? And all because evil CEO’s are laying [...]

Raising Taxes is good for the economy.

I would like to hear everyone’s opinion on the age-old theory on taxes.  On a commonsensical high level of thought, I don’t see how raising taxes on those who create wealth and jobs, is a good thing for the U.S. economy.  I don’t see how pumping more of our money into a broken, irresponsible, inefficient,  [...]

Feather Ruffling?

Okay, on the advice of a friend, I’m going to go there.  This whole DON’T ASK DON’T TELL supposed controversy is perplexing to me.  Why exactly do I need to know if you are gay while in the military?  To quote said friend, “I like chicken but don’t feel the need to wear a shirt [...]

Federal Workers Outraged by Salary Freeze

Seriously?  Let’s see, when my company was in financial straits, we were asked to take a week furlough and wages were frozen and no more 401K contributions were given.  Was I outraged?  No, I was glad to still be getting a check.  Now the federal government which operates on MY dime and YOURS, is in [...]

Private Jobs vs Government Jobs

OK, let’s play the logic game. I’m going to fly solo here using nothing but common sense, which seems to be pretty uncommon these days. Where does the government get their money from? Assuming they don’t print it themselves I’m going to say taxpayers. Or more specifically, private industry. So can we agree that the [...]

Checking In…

Wow, it’s been awhile since I posted anything here. It’s been a busy year as a parent, employee, spouse, and American Citizen! Lots of changes and challenges have found me as well. The political climate is certainly getting rank and exciting and scary. We are living in crazy times if you ask me. I hope [...]

FaceBook Cont’d…

I wanted to continue this discussion on my Blog page instead of running it 422 feet down the Facebook page! Please continue to post your thoughts on this…very interesting!

Irony

I catch bits and pieces of news…but supposedly, a gay activist is on a judges panel for a beauty pageant and asks a contestant how she feels about gay marriage.  Well, she answers honestly, that she believes marriage should be between a man and a woman, but it’s not the answer he wanted to hear,  [...]

A Bright Idea

Do you realize that by 2014, you the American citizen, will be required to purchase only Chinese made CFL’s?  I don’t know about you but I’m filling my attic with Mr. Edison’s invention prior to this deadline.  This ‘free country’ is becoming less and less so, I fear.  Anyone want to weigh in on this [...]

Tea Parties and Texas Secession

I have not read or heard a whole lot on the April 15th Tea Parties across the nation but I sure think it’s a good start.  I did catch some talk radio chatter about the media’s treatment of these events and their attempts to downplay and belittle the movement.  Not at all surprised of course.  [...]

Gay Marriage

I’m sure you see the title of this one and think, whoa, controversy!  Well, I will be the first to tell you I’m not proud that my state is the 3rd one in our country to approve of gay marriage as it goes against my beliefs.  I believe we all have the same, equal rights [...]

Wealth

Why do people hate wealth?  The rich CEO.  The wealthy oil companies.  When did producing wealth and making a lot of money become a bad thing in this country?  Why are we so covetous of everyone else’s good fortune and effort?  Why do we think every person driving a BMW must be an arrogant jerk [...]

Happy Easter

Happy Easter everyone.  I find myself wondering today, how many people out there celebrate Easter and get together with family and watch the kids hunt for eggs and candy and really don’t have a clue why this day is so special?  How far have we strayed from Christianity and the values of our ancestors that [...]

Academia

I was listening to a podcast today of Jason Lewis and he was talking about higher education and what a sham it really is. Check it out at the link below.  It really is worth listening to if you are or will someday be contemplating sending your child off to college. Podcast Link (Right Click [...]

Hello world!

Welcome to my WordPress blog page.  This is my first official attempt at blogging.  I’ve always got an opinion on something so decided why not capture it and let the masses take a look.
