The World According to Me.

The best part of the US/France Basketball game in the Olympics was Carmelo Anthony crying about the amount of fouls called on the US. Well, Karmen-Ghia, in the US you don't play basketball, you play street ball on a hardwood court; rarely are traveling, tending or fouls called...and now they are. You're terrible, all of you collectively, at the technique of the game. It will be interesting to watch this team cry time and again about foul calls.

For all the hating on Chick-fil-A I've heard over the last week, I'd think that the parking lot would be banished and desolate, however not the case. As I drove by two or three of these restraints in my travels yesterday I saw parking lots packed, and buildings full. I don't know if it is simply liberal media trying to press this bogus anti-Chick-fil-A cause, but it just doesn't seem the case. I can't wait till someone posts up the monthly earning of Chick-fil-A and attempts to market how the bogus boycotting has injured the company. Chick-fil-A for all the belief systems of the owner, doesn't discriminate against anyone in business practices and the fact the liberals are attempting to somehow associate a private owners opinion with the banishment of licenses to operate is unbelievable. And sadly for all their pandering and tweets, America by definition if a culture of the obese, and they need to eat.

I'm watching media report after report tell me how Obama is more personable than Romney, I'm sorry, America, we tried the "POTUS is cool" thing and where did it get us? More war, less money, more unemployment, less jobs and a lower GDP with a higher debt. Yeah, so cool does not equal prosperous. The last successful "cool" president was Clinton, and he wasn't cool until after his second term. Before him it was Kennedy, and he was only cool to those who didn't have to go to work and skipped out on Vietnam. Before that, you're looking to Roosevelt and I don't mean Franklin D.. Anyway, as I say, we've tried the cool non-credential "different" thing, it failed horribly. Time to go back to the basics. Does Romney have faults, absolutely..but so does everyone. What Romney towers over Obama in is experience in making money work and attempting programs that are completely agains the objectives of his party. Look at Mass health care, whil...

Pakistan told the US and UN yesterday that they would not accept drones in their country; well isn't that all nice and dandy. Will you also not accept the US hundreds of millions of dollars in aid either then? We ask as citizens because last we checked, your nation harbored Bin Laden for years and denied knowing his location. You are a failed, miserably governed state and have been that way for years. I weep for your people, to have such a horrifically failed government that leads to mass death daily and constant worry of the future. While other nations may suffer the slings and arrows of difficult times, few are as horrifically controlled as yourselves. I constantly wonder why you hate the "West" and I can only imagine it is out of jealousy. While Western Civilizations have had numerous failures in their rise to power, nothing is as epic as the lack of evolution of countries such as Pakistan. If you could go back in time to 1935, the country would look nearly the same. ...

So very, very, badly timed Mr. Cook. Now even years from now this joke probably would have received a mix response, but now, way too early. I'm sure he'll be forced to do the apology tour in order to keep his comedic career. He showed some pretty crappy judgement here, it was simply too early for a joke about this. I'm sure some will hammer him for being insensitive - which it was - however I don't believe he intended to offend, I believe he was attempting to bring closure to an awkward, uncomfortable and traumatic event. So the joke: http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2012/07/27/comedian-dane-cook-jokes-about-colorado-theater-shooting-in-standup-act/?intcmp=features “So I heard that the guy came into the theater about 25 minutes into the movie,” he said. And I don’t know if you’ve seen the movie, but the movie is pretty much a piece of crap. Yea, spoiler alert.” “I know that if none of that would have happened, pretty sure that somebody in that theater, about 25 m...

Now I was never a Chick-Fil-A fan, but now I am. I can't believe that cities like Boston and Chicago have actually tried to no allow business licenses to CFA simply because the owner doesn't believe in Gay Marriage. Remember, at no time did he encourage his business not to serve gays, not to assist gays or not to serve gay couples; this is just a personal view that the owner has. I for one will now buy CFA, simply because of the principle of the matter. America, back the hell up.

All I have to say is “What is wrong with you America?”. Ever since the shooting in Colorado I believe the majority of press-bound American writers have gone liberally insane. The types of Op-Eds being written in regards to what needs to happen with gun rights aka the 2nd Amendment to the US Constitution is staggering at best. I have read articles that state things like “America needs to have an honest talk about gun rights” and watched State Attorney Generals file appeals against carry laws, when the law is well received by the masses. I don’t know if these folks have become overly impressed with their own posts, or lost their minds all together. In regards to the article on gun rights, it addressed the shooting in Aurora as if the murdering of individuals wasn’t a crime, owning a gun was. The writer repeatedly spoke of “legally purchased” firearms and the incorrectly classified a AR-15 rifle as an “automatic assault rifle”; there is nothing automatic, nor assault, about a legally pu...

Absurd, that is what you are Mike Wise columnist for the Washington Post. Mike seems to believe it is wrong that PSU student (students) are still allowed to play football. Really Mike, you believe that punishing the student-athelete is the way to go. These students did nothing wrong, they play football for a University. You'd think you'd see how removing their ability to play directly impacts their lives, but you don't seem to care for light of an incoherent babble in regards to what "you" believe is right. These students did nothing, and the NCAA taking away their ability to play in a bowl game also directly impacts their futures. Futures they spent a lifetime building. It is by no means their fault that Administration and officials at PSU did not do their job. If NCAA's objectives were to stop money from funneling to PSU through the program, the you could just have easily taken any profits for NCAA consumption. However, it is this usual American-esqu respon...

It is a shame, the other night nearly a dozen people were shot in a Colorado movie theatre by a lunatic. It is sad that part of the human condition can lead to insanity. This individual adorned himself with red hair, to emulate the "Joker", put explosive traps in his home and car, and entered a theatre in Colorado with an AR15, shotgun and .40 calibre handgun. This man then decided to, randomly, kill people. This man, is a lunatic. It is sad that these types of events occur, there is no rhyme nor reason for such a random event. This man had only one run in with the law, and that was a speeding ticket. This is truly one of those events you couldn't have predicted, nor been prepared for. This is one of the problems of the human condition; things just seem to happen. What is important is to not lose site of the important aspect here, people died. There was not level of security, nor law, that would have stopped this event. There are dangers in the world, there is injustice...

The fearless leader of the United States, President Obama, announced the other day that businesses didn't make it on their own. Really, kind of a shocker. I guess his overall "point" was it takes a village to raise a child; giving examples of teachers or a person in your life giving you guidance that helped you as a business owner. However, what he said was: " If you got a business, you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen,” Obama said. "If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help. There was a great teacher somewhere in your life. Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you've got a business, you didn't build that. Somebody else made that happen. " See it is comments like this that scare the crap out of small business owners. When I ran my company I got advice from a close friend who built up my confidence, re...

As I read the comments by Rep. John Lewis of Georgia I couldn’t help but think of how backwards the world has truly become. This is a man, a noble man, who led the way in the “Freedom Riders” March on Washington in the ‘60s for Civil Rights. He was instrumental and true definition of defined leadership. However, it seems as he turns 72 he seems to have changed his focus. As a leader in Congress for over a quarter of a Century, he is changing his position on ‘changing the Government’ and becoming more of a Democratic lion. He is encouraging the “Occupy Wallstreet” folks and asking that they keep a cleaner view of their end goal. What I believe is the turning point is now we have politicians encouraging citizens to essentially revolt around our financial structure and the way American runs; Capitalism. The irony is this is a man who spent a great deal of his life attempting to change the Government of the United States, and now that he is the Government, he’d like to change the private...

Power is out, that is what 1.5 million people on the East Coast of the United States are saying. And sadly, some of them and their elected leaders actually blame the power company. This is the same company that for years has been forced to lower rates and has been working 24/7 since the power outage to restore power. This is a storm that was 3 states wide, yet for some reason meteorologists couldn't see it coming. If anything, this teaches people to be at least a weeks worth of self-reliant. Good luck out there.
