Senator John McCain has pulled off quite honestly the biggest coup in political history. While the Democrats are sitting around trying to mend their ways with women over the defeat of Hillary, the annointed one, Senator McCain was scouring the top of the Republican ranks and found a diamond in the rough; Mrs. Sarah Palin, Governor of Alaska. I love this pick from many angles, but in particular, I like that she is genuine, true, and not afraid to mix it up with the 'old-boy' network. You know this pick is good when the 'mainstream media', bloggers, and pundints start going crazy over it. Let the media say what they will, she is a leader, she has governed an entire state, what has Obama governed? Oh yeah, a meer 143 working days in the Senate...........whoopee!! I cannot wait til debate times..........she is going to kick Bidens rear end all over the stage. Good Luck Sarah, you got my vote.

Dear Mr. Obama:

  I would like to start off by stating upfront that there is absolutely no way on God's green earth I am voting for you this November. Ok, now that we have that out the way, I would like to commend you on your proposed, 'Tax Rebate Stimulous'. I should actually say the 'Let's Rape and Pillage the Oil Companies Profits Rebate' What a tremendous idea you have come up with. I cannot think of anything more hopeful and worthy of real change than to destroy an American company. I must hand it to you Mr. Barack Hussein Obama, you have outdone yourself here, at no time in recent history can I think of a politician wanting to take legitimate profits from legitimate companies...................wait, strike that, I must be thinking poorly here, I almost forgot what we did to the tobacco companies. By the way, where did all that money go anyhow? Do we still not have, what is it, 40 million Americans without health coverage? If I am not mistaken, I believe this same 'tactic' was used on pharmacuetical companies too? But I digress; I have thought this idea of yours out long and hard and I am going to make a proposal to like-minded educated Americans who can see the big picture. When and if Mr. Barack Hussein Obama is elected, and this proposal comes up for a vote, which by the way it will because Nancy Pelosi is of the same mindset as Mr. Barack Hussein Obama, and we poor, underprivilaged, deprived, Americans should get together with members of our immediate families, and reinvest that amount of money back into the oil companies stock. So, for instance, my wife and I, my sisters and their husbands, and my mother, pool together our $3000 and buy as much oil company stock as we can. Why you ask would we do that with the money? Good question, and I have the exact answer for you. Because one day, the people of this country will vote politicians into office who will see through these travesties and award the oil companies huge tax breaks, drilling contracts, and watch the profits soar then. You think 40 billion in profits is large, wait until we pull our heads out of our back-sides and see what we have done is unfair and frankly, unjust to private, legit companies, who by the way, are already paying outrageous amounts in taxes. So, again, thanks again Mr. barack Hussein Obama or can I call you Mr. Barack Hussein Obama Hood? 'He steals from the rich and gives to the poor' So, to conclude, good Luck in November, I am certain you will give Mr. John McCain a good run, but with such fresh, innovative ideas spewing from your campaign, I can't undertand why anyone wouldn't vote for you...............time will tell I guess.

Isn't it time for a change? After hearing about the story yesterday about yet another teenager getting a hold of a gun and feeling the need to, as his suicide note said, "go out with a bang", isn't it time that the adults in this country wake up and smell the coffee, or the roses, or whatever it is we need to smell! I just chaps my rear-end to continue hearing about stories like this. So, what do we change? First of all, there are two things that I feel could have averted this tragedy. Number one, if that young man had any idea that if he would have walked into that mall and just one person could have also have been carrying a gun on them and stopped him WITHOUT him having a chance to take the cowardly way out and committing suicide, do we think he might have thought twice about it? Maybe or maybe not, but just imagine for a moment if there was that chance; how many lives might have been saved if just one responsible, licensed gun owner would have been nearby. Not only that, but had that responsible, licensed gun owner been able to stop this young man without taking his life, the families who will now NEVER get any kind of justice for this tragedy might feel knowing this boy would be punished. It's time that folks wake up and see whats going on here. Troubled young people. Copy-catting crimes. Why did this boy feel the need to take others out with him? We will never know the answer, but if we examine the situation more closely, we might find a few common traits between him and others would did the same thing, which leads me to my second point, the public education system. Seems to me that ever since we have taken discipline, accountability, and responsibilty, not to mention God, out of the public schools and put it in the hands of worthless politicians, the young people in this country have had little to no direction. They are pushed through the system like cattle hearded to market, whether or not they have any idea what they just learned or didn't learn. In fact, I was shocked and amazed that my local public high school, seniors who are short a few credits can simply "buy" their way out of school. Buy their way out of high school? What kind of beaurocratic nonsense is that? It makes absolutely no sense to me why we should be sending our kids out into the world with the idea that if they get into trouble or can't handle something, they can just buy their way out of it. I'm sorry, but life does not work that way, unless I have lived an even more sheltered life than I could have even imagined. The only way that this current mentality in our society is going to change is if we, the ADULTS, do something to change it. We need to tell our elected officials to get more hands off regarding education and empower parents far more. The teachers unions must be put in their place as well. While they may do some good for some teachers, I feel that as a whole, the teachers union, (who by the way for those of you who don't realize it are in bed with the politicians), do far more harm than they do good. get the lousy teachers out and put in smart, common-sensical people who have the best interest of the children at hand, not the bottom line of their own pocket books. Bring back dress codes, discipline, responsibility, and accountability. Perhaps even a little education about God, or at minimum, a higher being. I am so glad that I have no other children waiting in the wings to attend school. As long a people turn a blind eye to kids and feel that the government can do a better job raising our kids, things will get far worse before thy ever get better. WAKE UP PEOPLE!! How much more of this needs to happen before adults take back this country and ensure that politicians don't have the final say about your childs future?
