The World According to Me.

Today marks the last of the US troops in Iraq - this date was laid down years ago..and is finally here. What is absurd is how Americans are handling this great day. Instead of celebrating their return, the immediate response was partisan political non-sense. Some times Americans make me sick.

Please tell me why this pipeline is a "bad" thing? It brings jobs, money and control to Canada and the United States over energy. To think that the President is not on board with this because of his environmentalist door knockers in San Francisco is disgusting. He is pissing away the future of America over a new 4 year campaign. How about you take a minute to think about something other than your party, Mr. President? This pipeline is 1700 miles in length and secured by Canada (a life-long friend to the US) and the United States. It is insane that it is even up for debate on whether it is happening. How you implement may be something you work through as you go, to make sure you do as little environmental damage as possible, however doing it..should be a fore gone conclusion. If we combined Canadian oil-sands with natural gas in the United States (4 times the amount of natural gas exists in the US as compared to ALL of the oil in Saudi Arabia) - energy would become truly secu...

There was an editorial cartoon in the USA Today which showed a family in love with Tim Tebow praying but scared to death of the show All American Muslim; and it eluded to hypocritical Americans. What it didn't include was the fact that Tim Tebow is a football player who shows his religion, Tebow isn't an exploit from Hollywood hell bent on being provocative. I feel the same way about a Muslim 'show' as a I would one titled "Christians in Egypt", it is simply stupid. Your faith should be something you know in your heart, you shouldn't feel the need to force others into embracing it by calling them shallow, scared, insecure or moronic. And if you do feel that need, don't be surprised when others push back. While people should be all tolerant, they aren't and no amount of 'shoving' it down their throats will ever make them more compassionate.

Foxnews runs this reel about "Stars who lost their looks" - it should simply be called "We're conceited and don't like people aging". If you look at the photo lines you'll see Warren Beaty, Jack Nicholson, Mel Gibson and a host of others. These are all folks who gained fame in their 20's and 30's and are now nearing either 50 or 80. If I look half as good as some of them at 80 years old, I'll be impressed. Just one more reason America is going down the crapper. Another American Fail

The National Highway and Transportation Safety Association wants a national ban on cell phones in cars (hands free or not) because they believe cell phones cause such a distraction that they need removed. What they don't tell you is that all traffic accidents in the nation for a year that may or may not have been related to cell phones totaled.....less than 3,500. In the nation. While this number isn't small, remember that they aren't confident cell phones played a role and that tens of thousands of accidents occur every year; making this a small overall percentage. Not to mention the fact that one of their key 'examples' was that of a 19 year old who was on his phone while driving his truck and caused essentially a 38 person accident. What they glean over was the fact that in his state, it was illegal for him to be on the phone already. So what NHTSA wants to do is create another law, on top of a law. If the driver already broke the law, why would another law stop...

Iran Downs US Drone - reverse engineering it Iran, really? Does anyone buy your bull crap? For the last 65 years Iran has had oil fields built and maintained by the Chinese and Russians because they can't figure out how to take advantage of their own resources. They still use 1960's military technology, and rely on the scraps Russia is done playing with. They haven't been able to build a Navy since 1979 and they have no ability to maintain control of their populous aside from complete brutal fear. Does anyone in the world, with common sense, believe there is any possible chance Iran reverse engineers a circa 2007 US Drone? No. That is the answer, plain and simple. So why worry? Well, you should worry because the folks that could do something with US technology (our real adversaries) Russia and China, can do what Iran claims. Now, the odds that they would share that knowledge with Iran are slim to none. China would be far more likely to share with N. Korea in an effort to ...
