So apparently Governor Rick Perry of Texas has a Baptist pastor who’s going off on Mormons. I guess Michele Bachmann has jumped on that wagon as well, haven’t seen it, just heard about that one so… Ya know, we’ve retired in Idaho. There are a lot of Mormons here in Idaho. They make good neighbors. Given a choice between living with Baptists and living with Mormons, I’ll take the Mormons. Once you tell them you’re not interested in going to the temple with them, they have the courtesy to leave you the hell alone. And seriously? You really want to trash the Osmonds?! Donnie? Marie? America LOVES Donnie and Marie! I know it’s a way to discredit Romney, but come ON. The only thing these nimrod, close-minded, gay bashing, moralists are doing is making Mitt Romney look like the only rational candidate for the GOP.
Herman Cain? Kinda liked him for a minute. Cool, business man. Then he started talking. Total meltdown.
Occupy Where-Who-What-Ever they are. I’m for it! Seriously. They might be a conglomeration of all the leftist “pissed off ats” all in one, but ya gotta admit, they have a couple of valid points. The chief one being that we’re a good 3 years past the economic melt-down that the suits brought down on us and the only Armani clad shit bird that’s in jail is Bernie Maddoff? And not only did these suits NOT get prosecuted…they got rewarded for their f*ckups with OUR tax dollars. The only thing that surprises me is that it took so long for someone to organize a protest.
President Obama. Sigh. What can I say? Not a fan. Don’t like a damn things he’s done other than capture OBL and he did THAT by sticking with the same strategies and tactics that he beat up President Bush for. I REALLY hoped he’d do something to get a real, sustainable alternative energy program going and create a bunch of jobs while doing it. We all know how THAT turned out. To call it feeble is an insult to feeble.
Okay, so now we’re only leaving 5,000 armed “advisers” in Iraq and pulling out all the combat forces? Meanwhile, last week it was announced that we’re sending 100 armed “advisers” into Uganda. I guess there’s some Rebel faction there that needs cleaning out. Uganda. “Suddenly” we need to do something about one of the warlords in Africa? Because…?
The Tea Party. What the hell happened? It was brilliant, it was exciting, and then…Buellor? Buellor? Ya let the media run your message and now we don’t hear anything BUT their version of your message.
Bottom line? Everyone’s fed up. They’re fed up with blowing up people who probably had nothing to do with hurting any of us. They’re fed up with spending billions of dollars blowing those people up. They’re fed up with the way we treat our vets when they do make it home. They’re very fed up with losing their houses. They’re fed up with spending thousands of dollars on an education only to find out that nobody is hiring. They’re fed up with their movie collections being outdated due to ANOTHER format change. And to quote Tyler from Fight Club:
“I see all this potential, and I see squandering. God damn it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables; slaves with white collars. Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don’t need. We’re the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War’s a spiritual war… our Great Depression is our lives. We’ve all been raised on television to believe that one day we’d all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won’t. And we’re slowly learning that fact. And we’re very, very pissed off.”
