On a serious note
How history was made.

I'm trying to embrace what is right, man.
"You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is about the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it."
Dr. Adrian Pierce Rogers Anyone else notice that Obama cannot shut up? The good reverend just keeps on talking. Listen Jack, the lazy, poor and ignorant of this country voted you in so that you would roll your sleeves up and "make it all better." The closest you have come so far is that of taking your jacket off in the oval office. Please stop talking and work this magic the university students speak of. Like Cuba Gooding Jr., who was not asked to get in back, stated in Jerry Maguire, "SHOW ME THE MONEY!" Unfortunately, this new stimulus bill will only benefit the Democrat's move to a super government. It will throw money into new programs that were even a bad idea when the economy was good. The sole purpose is to keep the Democrat political machine elected and in office from the local level to that of the presidency. Remember the first rule of holes: When you're in one, stop digging! The other problem, as seen at the National Prayer Breakfast this morning. Obama just does not choose sides.  He keeps referring to muslims as if they are a country, or race of people. I'm not sure what Obama considers himself. I think he may have to create a whole new term: MusliAmeriChristican. He does hold the muslims and their faith close to his heart. In fact, he loves them so much, that he is letting them leave from Guantanamo as fast as possible. Today one of the suspects of the U.S.S. Cole bombing had his charges dropped. I learned long ago that the majority of American tax spenders have plenty of time on their hands. As they wait for their check, their children to get home on public transportation and the crack dealer, they have time to think of the many ways they have been done wrong. I also know that if you promise them steak, you had better have steak. So, when they get to the party, there better be steak, or somebody is going to pay! So there ya go, Barrack, fire up the grill, hang the pinata and sign the tax credits, cause the voters are at the front door and they got BOTH hands held out. Oh yes, the day has come ". . . when black will not be asked to get in back, when brown can stick around ... when yellow will be mellow ... when the red man can get ahead, man; and when white will embrace what is right. That all those who do justice and love mercy say Amen."** **Taken from the benediction of the 2009 Presidential Inauguration - Rev. Dr. Joseph E. Lowery

Mediocrity and this Great Nation
Yeah, I've been gone. Sorry! No amount of monkey puppet videos will make up for the lack of my blogging. Blogging, what a word, but that's for another post. I'm back, let the celebrations begin! Anyone notice the change that is happening in this wonderfully, silly country? Tom Daschle knows better. The man has been in government longer than I have been an adult. HOW in the world did he MISS taxes? Impossible. Tim Geithner wasn't worried about it at all. He blew off $26,000 in taxes and got the head treasury job for his troubles. TRUST me, if I (or any small business person) missed 1/20th of that amount, they would place a lien on our holdings and find every way possible to bleed us of every "fee and penalty" they could. NOT give us a nice, prestigious job. Then again, the new era of CHANGE does not benefit many working Americans.  This new Change that America so easily voted in does not support hard work, no, it will propel mediocrity to the forefront. The term "half-ass" will be worn with pride on jump rope team jerseys throughout the country. Coming in second, third, fourth or just not even bothering to show up will be greeted with enthusiastic "oh, that's ok" from teachers, Cub Scout Den mothers and ICEE Vendors throughout the U.S. IN FACT, several educational entities are looking seriously at the idea of getting rid of the all mighty "F." I mean think, never again will you FAIL Latin. I can see it now, the 28th Amendment, The right to unlimited do-overs**. Who cares about those idiots who work hard and finish their projects on time. You can still have your cake, your bling, your crack and smoke it too.  "Don't worry Mr. President, these new secret service agents are gonna be fine. I mean come on, they all got at least a C on the written exam." Take your jacket off in the oval office? I mean that's like wearing pajama bottoms and house shoes to Walmart. Seriously, would ABRAHAM LINCOLN take off his jacket in the oval office? Was John F. Kennedy shot in some Bermuda shorts and a tennis shirt? Mr. President, embrace the part of society that you want to live in. The one where your wife dresses like Jacquelyn Kennedy and your kids dress in J. Crew whilst attending the Cotillion at the country club adjacent Sidwell. Set the standard. Since you are "rebuilding" the economy and this country (once again, I did not realize it was THAT broken), then do it the right way and embrace the traditions that have made the United States of America great.
OK, maybe I have gotten a little venomous, but the depression that I have has only multiplied since January 20, 2009. This CHANGE is not the one that I want. Mediocrity is the death nail for this country, and we are embracing it like a terminal patient waiting eagerly for Dr. Kavorkian. So for all those feeding at the government trough. Viva Change! Viva Mediocrity! ** Yes, these will trump many of the previous amendments, and they will have to be repealed.
