God D--- America...
For just a minute my attention is drawn overseas...to places like Burma, Cyclone Nargis was a strong tropical cyclone that caused the deadliest natural disaster in the recorded history of Burma (also known as Myanmar).[3] The cyclone made landfall in the country on May 2, 2008, causing catastrophic destruction and at least 43,318 fatalities with a further 27,838 people still missing.[4][5] However, Labutta Township alone was reported to have 80,000 dead and some have estimated the death toll may be well over 100,000.[6] The official Red Cross estimate is between 68,833 and 127,990 people killed.[ and apparently another one is on the way.
Or, China
China says more than 50,000 people are feared dead from Monday's quake in Sichuan province alone. Soldiers and civilian volunteers Thursday continued to pull survivors from the debris, but time is running out to rescue an estimated 30,000 people buried beneath the rubble of collapsed buildings. As the official death toll for Sichuan and nearby provinces rises to nearly 20,000, Chinese state-run media Friday say officials worry that rotting corpses could spark disease outbreaks.
OR...
The 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake The earthquake triggered a series of devastating tsunamis killing more than 225,000 people in eleven countries, and inundating coastal communities with waves up to 100 feet. It was one of the deadliest natural disasters in history. Indonesia, Sri Lanka, India, and Thailand were hardest hit.
Yes, we have our violence and the fact that the government invented AIDS and rap music to kill all black people (WHAT?!?!)...but really God D--- America? Not hardly Rev. Wright...you're dead wrong.
I know i'm ranting...i don't really care if you agree with me or if this makes sense, but im just beyond listening to the crap that is out that and that is being spoon fed to stupid people at home who believe everything they see on tv instead of finding it out for themselves.
ACORN???! He IS nuts!!!
If you want to do any research on ACORN you won't be able to find any information on CNN.com....just so you know.
Preconditions-Schmeconditions..
QUESTION: "[W]ould you be willing to meet separately, without precondition, during the first year of your administration, in Washington or anywhere else, with the leaders of Iran, Syria, Venezuela, Cuba and North Korea, in order to bridge the gap that divides our countries?"... OBAMA: "I would. And the reason is this, that the notion that somehow not talking to countries is punishment to them -- which has been the guiding diplomatic principle of this administration - is ridiculous. And I think that it is a disgrace that we haven't spoken with them." (CNN/YouTube Democrat Presidential Candidate Debate, Charleston, SC, 7/23/07)
or...
QUESTION: In your first year as president, with president Ahmadinejad, without preconditions, is there anything you have heard today, in your discussions with Israeli leaders that has made you rethink that pledge? Or are you still standing by that?
OBAMA: Dan, I think you have to take a look at what the question was in South Carolina and how I responded.
The question is, would I meet with leaders without preconditions in pursuit...
QUESTION: (OFF-MIKE)
OBAMA: I understand. I understand.
QUESTION: (OFF-MIKE) ... in your first year as president.
OBAMA: But I think that what I said in response was that I would, at my time and choosing, be willing to meet with any leader if I thought it would promote the national security interests of the United States of America.
And, Dan, that continues to be my position. That if I think that I can get a deal that is going to advance our cause, then I would consider that opportunity.
But what I also said was that there is a difference between meeting without pre-conditions and meeting without preparation. You know, the specific context of your question let's say with respect to Iran, is a Bush administration policy, for example, that said, we will not involve ourselves in any diplomatic negotiations or even talks with the Iranians until they have made the decision to stand down on their nuclear weapons. Well, that presumably would be the topic of negotiations. And if we take that position, then it's not surprising that we might not make much progress on that front.
I Can Just Smell The Socialism, Can't You?
Have you ever heard of socialism? What is socialism you ask...Let me get you the definition...
SOCIALISM: /ˈsoʊ
ʃəˌlɪz
əm/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[soh-shuh-liz-uh
m] Noun
An "economic, social and political doctrine which expresses the struggle for the equal distribution of wealth by eliminating private property and the exploitative ruling class. In practice, such a distribution of wealth is achieved by social ownership of the means of production, exchange and diffusion.
Please tell me this is just a joke, and this moron isn't running for President, and that there aren't people stupid enough to vote for him!! Seriously, what in that comment above can I agree with? I work my ass off...I have 2 jobs...I get taxed all to hell and you're telling me that you want the people behind me to have a chance? SCREW YOU!! I worked damn hard for everything I have...and life hasn't always been easy, but I'll be damned if this guy is going to take more of my money so the people behind me have a chance too. Get out there and work, make the sacrifice and do something with your life. This idiot is the best friend of those with a ''victim'' mentality. So much for working hard and making a difference. I don't get it... I just don't get it.
Bonehead Biden
When I listen to Joe Biden speak it irritates me..because he says so many stupid things...and yet no one seems to care...I guess that's why they call him Biden the bumbler...Yet, when Sarah Palin answers a question about what a vice president does...it's no big deal. But when Biden answers the same question, and is TOTALLY wrong....no one flinches. The media seems to have been covering for Biden for some time. While news stories still talk about Dan Quayle's spelling mistake 18 years later, there has been almost no news coverage of Biden's numerous wacky statements. What if Quayle had said something similar to Biden's recent statement that, "When the stock market crashed (in 1929), Franklin D. Roosevelt got on the television and didn't just talk about the, you know, the princes of greed. He said, 'Look, here's what happened.'"
HMMM.....A neat trick given that Herbert Hoover was president in 1929 and no one was watching television.(TV's have been commercially available since the late 1930s, the television set has become a common communications receiver in homes, businesses and institutions, particularly as a source of entertainment and news.)
