You Tell Um Ted!

A must view video. At least one Congressman realizes how stupid they are:



Way to tell them Representative Poe! I need to find a transcript of this one.

Blame The School?

I heard something that almost made me fall over, a woman is blaming the school because her kindergarten age daughter does not know her ABC's and cannot count to 20. Are you kidding me?!? How hard is it to sign the ABC song? Or to play with the little magnetic numbers and letters on the fridge? I have spent almost enough hours helping my children with home work that I probably could be a teacher. Isn't that what a parent is supposed to do? Since when did it become the school's responsibility to make sure your child knows the basics?

This is what is wrong with America, no one wants to accept the blame for failure. It's the school's fault, it's the government's fault, it's the president's fault. Look in the mirror, you have no one to blame but yourself!!!

Time For A Change?

Yak, yak, yak...people whining that it's time for a change. So you think the president is your vehicle for change? Oh come on, it's been in your hands all the time. It's time you got off your butts and did something for yourself. It's time you quit depending on the government to bail you out for this, that or the other thing. It's time you stopped blaming rich people for all your problems.

Maybe if you would have paid attention in school...oh, I'm sorry you let the government dumb down your education to the point you can't think for yourself anymore. Quit blaming everyone else for your problems, look in the mirror, that's who you need to blame.

It's time you demand public servants be just that, servants to the people. It's time you demand term limits, career politicians are not what our founding father's envisioned. It's time you re-read the Constitution and the Bill of Rights...silly me, I'm still assuming you can even comprehend the documents.

Now you want the government to run the oil industry? I have 4 letters for you USPS. Does it hurt to be that stupid?

Let Them Rot In Jail

It's been a while since I jumped up on the soapbox, but when you've got 3 terrorist that want to die - "Accused Sept. 11 Mastermind: 'I Wish to Be a Martyr' " just to become heroes, I say let them rot. Don't give them what they want, ever. Heck, if I were in charge I would have through a pig in their cell with them.

Eye on the Candidates

Just went and looked at the Presidential Scorecard kept by the Fair Tax people - Fred Thompson has somewhat dropped off my list after he said supported a flat tax system. I've been keeping an eye on Ron Paul - he's not in the line of the mainstream polls because he's embracing the new media - the internet and the youth that know how to use it.

Think I'll keep an eye on Mike Huckabee too. I love the quote from him "I want to be the president of the United States that nails the going-out-of-business sign on the Internal Revenue Service and ends a $10-billion-a-year nightmare called the IRS."

If people would just wake up ...
