The Government vs The People, you decide!

Here we are, waiting for President Obama to give his first State of the Union speech, and I expect it to be another of his me, me, me, lectures, about how he and the Government can solve or have already solved all of our problems but we are just too stupid to notice it. If I hear him blame President Bush one more time my head is going to explode!

The government is not the answer it is the problem, only President Reagan said it, and it is the truth, and the people are finally standing up and putting their votes where their mouths are! Look at what Massachusetts did, talk about a slap in the face! I bet ole Teddy is rolling in his grave! He and the rest of the progressive liberals just knew this was the way to government control, but even the people of the most liberal state in the union have said that is enough!

I expect to hear Obama talk about how wonderful he is, and how much the American people suck, and how he will fix everything no matter how bad Bush screwed it up! Of course he is going to seem to move more to the center, but it will all be lies, just as usual. This year is going to be an upsetting time for those socialist bastards that want to take us over and ruin our way of life, because now that our eyes have been opened, we shall vote them out, each and every one of them! Regardless of what lies Obama spews tonight, We The People, will overcome!

Pay close attention to what the “Chosen One” says,  it will be nothing but a regurgitation of the same crap the progressives always spew! His spending freeze is a joke, he increased the spending, and now wants to lock it in so it cannot be cut! Obama talks out of both sides of his neck, the progressives will stand up and cheer, but the rest of us should see through the lies, it is nothing but a bunch of crap! Just another way to try to take over the country and turn us into something we are not and do not want to be! Who do you want to be in control, We the People, or, the Government?

Gun Control: What separates reality from fantasy and paranoia?

Gun control, a big issue, but, what separates reality from fantasy and paranoia? The shooting in Pittsburgh is but one of the first, I fear, that will have at least some basis in the belief that President Obama and his regime, will somehow find a way to circumvent the U.S. Constitution, and take our guns away. This is the paranoia.

Don’t get me wrong, what the guy in Pittsburgh did was wrong, how it got started, his mental stability, his job loss, and so on. all play a part in this, but, what does it prove?

Americans have very little confidence in the government, and fear that the Constitution is in jeapardy. This is a huge problem, and could trigger more of the “less stable” to snap!  President Obama and his henchmen, will, if they get a chance, limit our rights to “Keep and bear arms”, we all know it, but, it is these type of events that give them the “ammo” (pardon the pun), to get the population behind such an idea!  This is where the fantasy comes in, it is that the very group that wants to keep guns, doing stupid things, that the “other” side believes is reality, this guy has provided fuel for their fantasies of getting rid of guns! The fantasy, of the perfect Utopia with no guns.

My heart goes out to the families and friends of anyone harmed in what this guy did.  Maybe we can all learn from this? The state of our society is in panic, because so many of us believe that the very fabric of our founding, is going to be unraveled, one line of the Constitution at a time, do we need to start shooting at each other? NO!

What we need is to stand up, and speak out, get others like us involved in expressing that “We the People” want to keep our Constitution, and maybe, just maybe, some that are teetering on the edge of sanity, will not be able to use that fear as an excuse! People come in all shapes, and flavors, but we have one thing in common, we are all Americans, and we need to act like it! People get sick, people go crazy, we all have problems, but, we can not blame one mans problem on all other mens freedoms! (or womens)

Medical Marijuana:Good or Bad?

Medical Marijuana, this is one of those touchy subjects that can get you into trouble if you end up on the wrong side of the law! However, it is a big issue in this country, but why?

Well, have you ever been in pain? No, I don’t meant one of those little things like a toothache, I mean chronic pain, pain that just will not go away, pain that makes it impossible to even eat, sleep or function in any way, I have, and it is not fun.

This is one of those areas that moves me far away from the standard “conservative” viewpoint, because I have been there! We have all seen those horror movies they used to show kids, and I can tell you those propaganda films are wrong, wrong in their presentation, because all they do is make kids want to try it! However, that is not the point of this article.

The point I want to make is not about “legalizing” Pot, it is about Freedom! I guess this is a “Libertarian” thing, what else could I call it? We all have a right to our Opinions, and this is mine, “If smoking pot helps you, either deal with pain, or whatever, it is your choice, you can go get a ‘legal’ prescription, for some very potent narcotics or antidepressants that are also expensive, and addictive, or, you can smoke a joint”, but, if you get caught with weed, you get in trouble! Personally, I find this a bit strange, after all, marijuana is just a plant, and God made plants!

Opinions very wildly on this one, but, if you look at it from an open minded point of view, and think about what I am saying, maybe you will be able to understand why medical marijuana is such a big issue in this country.

We all keep hearing about the drug war, ok, why? We hear about the narco-gangs and cartels, and how evil they are, ok, true. The question is, why do they exist? Simple, it is just business, supply and demand, what the war is trying to accomplish, is to eliminate the supply, and we all know, that will never work as long as there is a demand, all it does is make the price go up! I have never heard of a stoner, robbing anyone to get weed, just crackheads and heroine addicts and the like, but not a pothead! I guess it is like oil, when we stop buying gasoline, the price goes down, the the oil companies cut down the supply and the gas prices go up!

I believe that anyone that is a “stoner” will agree with this, pot is not the problem, hard drugs are! So what is the difference? Simple, God made Pot, it is just a plant! Cocaine and heroin also come from plants, BUT, they are processed and altered, haven’t you ever had a burger with poppy seeds on the bun? Hmm, that is the plant heroin comes from, could you imagine a burger with pot seeds on it? The poor hemp plant gets a bad deal on this, it is used to make all kinds of things, just don’t smoke it! Makes you wonder who found out that smoking hemp would get you high?

I find it a bit strange, tobacco is legal, pot isn’t, tobacco causes cancer, pot doesn’t, alcohol is legal, alcohol gives you a hangover, pot doesn’t, funny huh? Remember prohibition, didn’t work did it, but, there were many a cartel that got rich from it, funny, they became famous, folklore and movies were made, moonshiners and the revenuers, hey, what was that last word? Revenuers! Why was operating a still illegal? Because the government couldn’t get their tax money! Why is it illegal to grow your own? I think, because they can’t tax it!

Think about this, food is not taxed, at least not here in Texas, but beer and booze are. We can make our own beer and wine, and yes, I have brewed a lot of beer. If it were legal to “grow your own”, what could be wrong with that? Growing your own food is not taxed, because you plant a seed and it grows and you eat it, I fail to see the difference. See where I am headed with this?

Imagine, if growing your own, would allow you to avoid buying the expensive prescription narcotics, who would that hurt? The pharmaceutical companies? No, they make plenty of different products, and those narcotics are needed for many things, so, who would it hurt? The tax man, the revenuers, thats who!

Regardless of your view on marijuana and the comparison to tobacco, beer and booze as to its effects, you are free to buy tobacco, beer and booze, but not weed, this is an issue of freedom! Hey, abortion is legal, because they say, it is about choice, but a baby must die to exercise this “choice”, if one “chooses” to smoke weed, you don’t kill anything but a brain cell or two, just like tobacco, beer and booze, so, why don’t we have that choice? I have a feeling that there will be a few “stoners” at the upcoming tea parties, why not, it is all about the same thing, telling government that we are here, and to get out of our lives, and our pocketbooks!

To sum it up, I am a firm believer in Freedom, and if burning a doobie can help you cope with pain, or another medical problem, and it hurts no one, what is the problem? Below you will find several videos, not in any particular order, but all are interesting and related to this article, so, take a look.

What is up with all of this racial crap?

I am sorry, maybe I missed something somewhere, I thought that since Obama got elected, we didn’t have to hear all of the “racial” crap anymore! Obviously not, watch this video and see what you think. I am just getting so tired of hearing that Barack Obama is a black man, shut up with it already, his problem is not being black, it is being a piss poor president! I don’t care if he is blue, green, or tootie fruitie, he is putting us in debt for generations, that is the problem!

What Michael Steele is facing in this video is just so wrong! It is supposed to be an interview about how Steele has reached out to Obama, but Obama is not reaching back! What happened to all of tha bi-partisen crap Obama used to shovel out at every chance he had? If I could snap my fingers and have them trade places I would, Steele is a “real” conservative, at least he always sounded that way to me. Anyway, just watch the video and see what you think!

Who would you hire, the one that is Smart or the other one?

Now I know what is wrong with this country, we are too smart! I just found an article on RightWingNews.com that proves what I am saying! Well, if you watch this video, from that article, and believe it, then America has a problem, we are too smart! Follow the link to We Need To Redefine Merit and read that article, this is the basis for my opinion here, although my opinion, as usual, goes into this subject with a bit more of a critical attitude , read that article, watch the video, then read on……..

Ok, this Professor Guinier, is basically saying that diversity is better than intelligence. Intelligence, which one aquires from studying, not from having a rich family, should be the basis for hiring someone, but, she is saying that a person that only managed to retain a small portion of the subject material that was covered in the test, is just as, or more qualified because it was different from what the others had answered? Is she kidding? That would be the same as picking the one that only got one answer right, but it was the one answer that everyone that scored 9 of 10 got wrong, I would call it a lucky guess, not a sign of diversity! I imagine she would see that person as a genious?

I don’t know about now, but when I was in school, scoring a 70, or 7 out of 10 as she stated, was a C, and if the person at the top of the group tested, only managed a C, I feel that all of the teachers should be fired! If the person that made a 50, or 5 out of 10, an F, would be who she picked, for diversity’s sake, then this highlights an even bigger problem. Since Professor Guinier is a professor, it makes me wonder just how she grades her students, what kind of curve does she use? If she is failing the kids that do the best on the test, for diversity’s sake, then she should be removed, and so should any teacher, or professor, that cannot teach well enough that at least 80% of the class score a 90 , a B,or better! This 80% of the class passing would be the teacher getting a B on their ability to teach!

When I was a kid, the kids that scored less than a B got picked on by the ones that did better, individual responsibility was backed up by peer pressure, it was a matter of pride! What happens when you remove the rewards from life and make it ok to fail a test, yet still pass? Everybody becomes “the same”, no one is any “better” than anyone else, is that diversity? Is this the goal of the progressive liberals? What a concept, what a terrible future for our country, is this what you want your kids to learn?

Americans used to try and be the best, what happened? First, I guess you need to take Professor Guinier’s audience into account, she is basically telling a group of people that just happen to be part of a group that doesn’t, as a “group” do as well on the affore mentioned test, is that because “they” are less capable? No! All people, all colors, red, blue, green, whatever, should be “expected” to pass the same test, what the heck could race have to do with a test? Sorry, I am old, so, the test she is referring to, I have never seen, but, when I went to school, ALL of the kids got the same books, had the same teachers, and of course took the same test!

Her saying that the ones that pass the test have rich families, I take as an insult, not to just me, but to any and everyone, that was NOT rich, yet managed to study and pass a test! This Professor Guinier even knocked Obama around because he obviously passed a few tests himself, one time I have admit Obama did something right, he passed!

I am sorry, not everyone is as “smart” as everyone else, but, if you are in a classroom, regardless of the subject being taught, then you should be able to learn enough to at least get a 7 out of ten score, heck, that means that you didn’t know 30% of the answers!  If you cannot pass a certain subject, then you need to focus on another! Could you imagine the NBA with a bunch of short, fat, old, white guys, just for the sake of diversity? I don’t think so!

Yes, diversity is important, very important, but, diversity happens naturally, not everyone can be a lawyer, a mechanic, a computer geek, a brain surgeon, or an NBA player, or whatever, nor do we all desire to be, we all have to learn what our strengths are and focus on them, but, if everybody gets the same scores on everything they do, just for the sake of “fairness” , and no one is better at anything than anyone else, this will take us down the wrong road, an ugly road, a road where “The People” actually want everyone to be the same, one where we elect someone that promises to take care of everything because we are no longer rewarded for competing to be the best and take care of ourselves , a road where a dictator takes over and ….hmm
