SiCKO Opens Tomorrow!!!

GO SEE THIS FLICK! Regardless of your personal feelings on Michael Moore, he correct is stating that our 'health care' industry is a travesty. Check out this article. And go see the movie already!

I'm not really shocked, but......

WOW! The current administration doesn't exactly have a great track record with regards to the environment. But this article details how this administration, and more specifically Dick Cheney circumvents the laws. I know there are various opinions on the root cause of global warming, and I'm not here to argue those points. Throw them out the window. But to favor the recreational fishing industry over the extinction of 2 species of fish is irresponsible at best. I'm sure there will be no real national outrage over this, much like Cheney's brilliant revelation that he's not actually part of the Executive Branch. Americans are far too interested in Paris Hilton to give a crap about real issues. The more I read, the more sad I become at the state of this nation....

Cheney breaks the law! (Again....)

From Article II (The Executive Branch), Section 1 (The President) of the United States of America Constitution:

"The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America. He shall hold his Office during the Term of four Years, and, together with the Vice-President chosen for the same Term, be elected, as follows..." [emphasis added by me]

So it seems fairly clear. The Founding Fathers intended for the President and Vice-President to comprise the executive branch. And am I correct in assuming that the Constitution is the rule of law in this country? I thought so. So why on earth is this enemy of the country our Vice-President? First he starts an illegal war...er, "fights terror" so his ex-employer can profit billions and billions dollars. Now he's (AGAIN!!!) deliberately deceiving the American people to continue his criminal activities. Kucinich might be an insane elf, but he was and is 150% correct on this issue.

On another topic, Bush finally pulls his head out of his hing quarters.....

My Man!!!

Well, Bloomberg seems to want me to vote with a clear conscience. Kudos! I'm not sure the ultimate point of this, but once again, me likey!!!

Me Likey?

I find this story fascinating. I really, really love the idea. It goes against everything Starbucks and Wal-Mart represent. At the same time, the decline of the dollar is a serious concern...Still, I think it's a great idea. Why do I live in Ohio again?!?

The correct NY Mayor Presidential candidate....

The more I hear about this guy, the more I like him. If we could only convince him to throw his hat into the presidential race, I think the country would benefit greatly....Still looking for dirt on Bloomberg....

What gives?

Seriously, folks. Does any American want unsecure borders? OF COURSE NOT! Immigration is the one issue where I stand behind the president, so it kind of makes sense that his Republican base is not. But seriously, what is wrong with this bill? Whether or not it is true, it makes certain Americans seem to dislike people with brown skin, plain and simple. This is about rich, snotty people who hire illegal immigrants to save a few dollars complaining about illegal immigrants getting into our country. It is about the failure of our justice system to enforce the current laws, and stop employers from hiring illegals.

Don't be fooled!

It seems Mrs. Bill is trying to dump a bunch of stocks, so when she appeals to her liberal base, they don't accuse her of hypocrisy. Don't be fooled! And for the record, although it seems like a conflict of interest, I honestly don't think there's anything wrong if someone chooses to invest in a 'less-than-desirable' company, such as Wal-Mart. Making profits off stupid Americans is the American way, no? (It's definitely the Wal-Mart way!)

I don't believe it either, but....

We'll start to run out of oil in 4 years! Not the 100+ promised by Rush Limbaugh. Now, I don't think there's any reason to think this article is accurate, but neither is Rush. Perhaps it's time to learn to live with oil...

My grandfather actually had an excellent idea. Stay out of space for the next years, and use those brilliant minds to develop hydrogen fuel, etc. What do we have to lose?

Are you surprised?

This article starts with "An internal FBI audit has found that the bureau potentially violated the law or agency rules more than 1,000 times while collecting data about domestic phone calls, e-mails and financial transactions in recent years." So you think to yourself, "Well, 1,000 instances over 5 years, that's 200 a year, which is less than 17 a month. That's not too bad." And then you read paragraph #2, which starts "The new audit covers just 10 percent of the bureau's national security investigations since 2002..."

Folks, the Patriot Act is bad news. Couple that with the fact that the FBI breaks the few rules they now have, and we are quickly headed towards a police state.
