For ten years the people have seen the resolve and will of the American people to keep them free, thanks to a president who truly believed that all men are created equal and should live free. &lt;br /&gt;   This in turn has sparked revolutions all around that region, a region believed as lost to freedom and democracy. But instead of will and resolve in an American president, those peoples found an appeasing and dithering president of inaction and inability. One who doesnt believe in American exceptionalism and the basic rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. It's said 'history repeats itself' the case-church amendment ended our military presence in vietnam, but it promised 'support' from our government (with congressional approval) which never came, thus leading to the genocide of the Cambodian people in the 'killing fields'. &lt;br /&gt;   Stirred by hope that America would help free the Libyan people, they led a futile attempt at gaining their freedom, futile because of a weak American president who dithered and punted on American support for the Libyan people. Now it's genocidal maniac leader is talking about 'cleansing' his people of all who opposed him. And we still have a president who is silent on the matter. History is repeating itself.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/501506662335652373-2467702038083163908?l=ramblingman168.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/feeds/2467702038083163908/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=501506662335652373&amp;postID=2467702038083163908' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/2467702038083163908'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/2467702038083163908'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/2011/03/history-repeats-itself.html' title='History repeats itself'/><author><name>ramblingman168</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15945041027732914289</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RC6m4_ZZrKs/TLiQPpjVZ0I/AAAAAAAAACY/4wzp2hWN_I8/S220/my+pics+169.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-501506662335652373.post-2372477251090920624</id><published>2010-12-10T01:11:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2010-12-10T01:11:44.935-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Baseline budgeting</title><content type='html'>Let me give you a product.  You're sitting there minding your own business and here comes an ad for potatoes, and you see potatoes, which are normally a buck-fifty a pound are now a dollar a pound.  You don't need any, but you can't pass up that price so you go buy a couple pounds.  You spent money you would have otherwise never spent because you don't need the potatoes. You only bought them because they're on sale.  So you're actually out the money, and you're telling yourself you saved a bunch.  This is how government baseline budgeting works.  They have a budget that automatically triggers every item going up eight to 10% every year, and if it only goes up five, they claim that their budget's been cut, even though they had a 5% increase.  You have just spent money that you weren't going to spend, but because there was a sale, you've told yourself you saved money.  Liberals tell themselves this. They've been planning on a tax increase, therefore more money, but there never was a tax increase. It never became law.

Those who challenged ecclesiastical authority and those who believed strongly in freedom of worship were hunted down, imprisoned, and sometimes executed for their beliefs. A group of separatists first fled to Holland and established a community.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"After eleven years, about forty of them agreed to make a perilous journey to the New World, where they would certainly face hardships, but could live and worship God according to the dictates of their own consciences. On August 1, 1620, the Mayflower set sail. It carried a total of 102 passengers, including forty Pilgrims led by William Bradford. On the journey, Bradford set up an agreement, a contract, that established just and equal laws for all members of the new community, irrespective of their religious beliefs. Where did the revolutionary ideas expressed in the Mayflower Compact come from? From the Bible. The Pilgrims were a people completely steeped in the lessons of the Old and New Testaments. They looked to the ancient Israelites for their example.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"And, because of the biblical precedents set forth in Scripture, they never doubted that their experiment would work. But this was no pleasure cruise, friends. The journey to the New World was a long and arduous one. And when the Pilgrims landed in New England in November, they found, according to Bradford's detailed journal, a cold, barren, desolate wilderness. There were no friends to greet them, he wrote. There were no houses to shelter them. There were no inns where they could refresh themselves. And the sacrifice they had made for freedom was just beginning. During the first winter, half the Pilgrims – including Bradford's own wife – died of either starvation, sickness or exposure. When spring finally came, Indians taught the settlers how to plant corn, fish for cod and skin beavers for coats.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Life improved for the Pilgrims, but they did not yet prosper! The original contract the Pilgrims had entered into with their merchant-sponsors in London called for everything they produced to go into a common store, and each member of the community was entitled to one common share. All of the land they cleared and the houses they built belonged to the community as well. They were going to distribute it equally. All of the land they cleared and the houses they built belonged to the community as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Nobody owned anything. They just had a share in it, It was a commune. Bradford, who had become the new governor of the colony, recognized that this form of collectivism was as costly and destructive to the Pilgrims as that first harsh winter, which had taken so many lives. He decided to take bold action. Bradford assigned a plot of land to each family to work and manage, thus turning loose the power of the marketplace. (That's right. Long before Karl Marx was even born, the Pilgrims had discovered and experimented with what could only be described as socialism. And what happened? It didn't work!" They nearly starved!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What Bradford and his community found was that the most creative and industrious people had no incentive to work any harder than anyone else, unless they could utilize the power of personal motivation! But while most of the rest of the world has been experimenting with socialism for well over a hundred years – trying to refine it, perfect it, and re-invent it – the Pilgrims decided early on to scrap it permanently. What Bradford wrote about this social experiment should be in every schoolchild's history lesson. If it were, we might prevent much needless suffering in the future," such as that we're enduring now. "'The experience that we had in this common course and condition...'" this is Bradford. "'The experience that we had in this common course and condition tried sundry years...that by taking away property, and bringing community into a common wealth, would make them happy and flourishing – as if they were wiser than God,' Bradford wrote.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"'For this community [so far as it was] was found to breed much confusion and discontent, and retard much employment that would have been to their benefit and comfort. For young men that were most able and fit for labor and service did repine that they should spend their time and strength to work for other men's wives and children without any recompense,'" without being paid for it, "'that was thought injustice.' Why should you work for other people when you can't work for yourself?" That's what he was saying. " The Pilgrims found that people could not be expected to do their best work without incentive. So what did Bradford's community try next? They unharnessed the power of good old free enterprise by invoking the undergirding capitalistic principle of private property.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Every family was assigned its own plot of land to work and permitted to market its own crops and products. And what was the result? 'This had very good success,' wrote Bradford, 'for it made all hands industrious, so as much more corn was planted than otherwise would have been.' ... Is it possible that supply-side economics could have existed before the 1980s? Yes. Read the story of Joseph and Pharaoh in Genesis 41. Following Joseph's suggestion (Gen 41:34), Pharaoh reduced the tax on Egyptians to 20% during the 'seven years of plenty' and the 'Earth brought forth in heaps.' (Gen. 41:47) In no time, the Pilgrims found they had more food than they could eat themselves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Now, this is where it gets really good, folks, if you're laboring under the misconception that I was, as I was taught in school. So they set up trading posts and exchanged goods with the Indians. The profits allowed them to pay off their debts to the merchants in London. And the success and prosperity of the Plymouth settlement attracted more Europeans and began what came to be known as the 'Great Puritan Migration.' But this story stops when the Indians taught the newly arrived suffering-in-socialism Pilgrims how to plant corn and fish for cod. That's where the original Thanksgiving story stops, and the story basically doesn't even begin there. The real story of Thanksgiving is William Bradford giving thanks to God for the guidance and the inspiration to set up a thriving colony. The bounty was shared with the Indians." They did sit down" and they did have free-range turkey and organic vegetables, "but it was not the Indians who saved the day. It was capitalism and Scripture which saved the day," as acknowledged by George Washington in his first Thanksgiving Proclamation in 1789.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/501506662335652373-1186239837644896421?l=ramblingman168.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/feeds/1186239837644896421/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=501506662335652373&amp;postID=1186239837644896421' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/1186239837644896421'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/1186239837644896421'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/2010/11/true-story-of-thanksgiving-narrated.html' title='The true story of thanksgiving (narrated)'/><author><name>ramblingman168</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15945041027732914289</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RC6m4_ZZrKs/TLiQPpjVZ0I/AAAAAAAAACY/4wzp2hWN_I8/S220/my+pics+169.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-501506662335652373.post-3601819769755400497</id><published>2010-11-25T01:16:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-11-25T01:16:25.796-08:00</updated><title type='text'>George washington's 1789 declaration of thanksgiving</title><content type='html'>"Whereas it is the duty of all Nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favor -- and whereas both Houses of Congress have by their joint Committee requested me 'to recommend to the People of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many signal favors of Almighty God especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness.'"

They are awkward to say the least. The term "bittersweet" comes to mind.&lt;br /&gt;   I believe that when someone close to you dies, a part of you dies with them. This leaves a hole and void in your life that cannot be filled with anyone or anything else in this world. So we mourn they're passing but rejoice that they are in a better place. &lt;br /&gt;   As I ponder this thing we call death, I see similarities between it and birth. The pain that comes with childbirth is only taken away when the child is delivered and replaced by the joy of a new life brought into this world. &lt;br /&gt;   We must go through this pain in order to have the joy that awaits us. Like childbirth we wait in anticipation for the joy to come, in death do we not do the same thing? We wait in anticipation for the appointed time when we will see those we love so dearly, who have gone on before us again. Then we will celebrate in much gladness and joy!&lt;br /&gt;   &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/501506662335652373-3705510740959988607?l=ramblingman168.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/feeds/3705510740959988607/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=501506662335652373&amp;postID=3705510740959988607' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/3705510740959988607'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/3705510740959988607'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/2010/10/life-and-death.html' title='Life and death'/><author><name>ramblingman168</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15945041027732914289</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RC6m4_ZZrKs/TLiQPpjVZ0I/AAAAAAAAACY/4wzp2hWN_I8/S220/my+pics+169.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-501506662335652373.post-2929615373645890769</id><published>2010-10-22T13:17:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-10-22T13:17:26.102-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Liberalism and the matrix</title><content type='html'>As my family will attest, I am a movie person. I like to take out similarities between life and the movies; There's a lot of fiction in these non- fiction movies. If this post were a series of movies, it would be the sequel to my Juan williams' piece. &lt;br /&gt;   Let's delve in now, shall we. There is a part in the original matrix movie where neo was "unplugged" from the matrix. As he was brought aboard the nebuchadnezzar, he faintly looked at morphius and morphius said "welcome to the real world" this is how williams' must feel. He must be somewhat disillusioned to the whole idea that he was free to and say what he wanted to. In reality he was always being controlled by powers he never knew existed.&lt;br /&gt;   Liberalism is the matrix, liberals are the agents, and democrats; the people enslaved and conservatives are the freedom fighters trying to free those who are enslaved. Part of the whole matrix scenario is that 'if your not free, you are part of the system' and can therefor be used by the agents to attack you. In this reality, we see it all the time, people being arrested for speaking out against obama at a rally, the firing of people that don't go along with his plan. Etc... The list is quite long, but listing these offenses is not what this blog is about. &lt;br /&gt;   I believe we are fighting a war in which the existence of this nation is at stake. The right to life, liberty; the pursuit of happiness... Our very freedom itself is being attacked. If we don't stand up now, it could be very well, too late. Those who are "plugged" into the matrix, live a life of ignorant bliss, they don't realize that they are enslaved. We who have this knowledge, MUST fight to free them, and to keep our own liberties. We are endowed by our CREATOR certain unalienable rights... And these rights are worth fighting and dying for.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/501506662335652373-2929615373645890769?l=ramblingman168.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/feeds/2929615373645890769/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=501506662335652373&amp;postID=2929615373645890769' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/2929615373645890769'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/2929615373645890769'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/2010/10/liberalism-and-matrix.html' title='Liberalism and the matrix'/><author><name>ramblingman168</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15945041027732914289</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RC6m4_ZZrKs/TLiQPpjVZ0I/AAAAAAAAACY/4wzp2hWN_I8/S220/my+pics+169.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-501506662335652373.post-627780343707172657</id><published>2010-10-21T18:40:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-10-21T18:40:04.623-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Not liberal enough</title><content type='html'>   This is for Juan Williams, liberal Juan Williams... Black liberal Juan Williams. Take notice of who is fighting and defending your right to free speech. It's not the NAACP, ACLU, the congressional black caucus, or any other minority civil rights organization. The historic first black president of the united states has not come to your defense either. &lt;br /&gt;   No, your greatest defenders are conservatives! You know, those white racist's that you love to hate. Yes, we are standing up for you, not your beloved liberal friends.&lt;br /&gt;   For those democrats that haven't sold their souls to liberal ideology, mr. Williams was not fired because he's a liberal, he was fired because he was not liberal enough for the ideology. He didn't in this case tow party line, so he was let go. Now I don't expect this to change williams' ideology or way of thinking, he is who he is. Just ask Joe Lieberman. After the democrat party threw him overboard when he lost his primary, he went on to win as an independent and To this day, he still votes 99% with the democrat party... Go figure. &lt;br /&gt;   Don't get me wrong, I don't feel sorry for Williams, he got a small taste of what he has done to conservatives for many years. So no tears for you here. One last note, just so you know. Fox network, yes the evil racist fox network picked up mr. Williams' for a multi million dollar 3 year exclusive contract. Hhmm... Maybe his mind can be changed, time will tell.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/501506662335652373-627780343707172657?l=ramblingman168.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/feeds/627780343707172657/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=501506662335652373&amp;postID=627780343707172657' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/627780343707172657'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/627780343707172657'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/2010/10/not-liberal-enough.html' title='Not liberal enough'/><author><name>ramblingman168</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15945041027732914289</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RC6m4_ZZrKs/TLiQPpjVZ0I/AAAAAAAAACY/4wzp2hWN_I8/S220/my+pics+169.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-501506662335652373.post-1048841761814186947</id><published>2010-10-19T23:29:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2010-10-19T23:29:50.038-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Famous and infamous</title><content type='html'>Famous and infamous&lt;br /&gt;There was an old Hebrew proverb spoken in the days of Ezekiel: "the father's eat sour grapes and the children's teeth are set on edge" &lt;br /&gt;   This is both reflective and indicative of today's leadership in America. They are doing things which are very destructive to the future generations of this country. They do them willingly and knowingly of this destruction, but continue because it will not effect them in the slightest. They will in fact "rest with their fathers" in peace, way before these catastrophes unfold.&lt;br /&gt;   History doesn't remember the mediocre, only the famous and infamous. Liberals today believe they will be remembered as being famous. As doing something so grand that history will laud them for their accomplishments. I do believe they are sincere in this belief, only they are sincerely wrong. &lt;br /&gt;   History in fact will remember them, forever will the names of Obama, pelosi, Reid be remembered as those who tried to destroy America from within, how America fought a second civil war to ensure the nations survival. A war without guns, a war of ideas! Of what America stands for and represents. &lt;br /&gt;   History will shine brightly on the American citizens that stood up to tyranny and defeated it without a single shot, without one drop of American red blood being spilled on the ground. As they did their part to ensure that the brave men and women who were fighting for freedom, spilling their blood on foreign soil came back to an America that was still free! &lt;br /&gt;   No liberals... You won't go down in history as being famous, but rather as being infamous.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/501506662335652373-1048841761814186947?l=ramblingman168.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/feeds/1048841761814186947/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=501506662335652373&amp;postID=1048841761814186947' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/1048841761814186947'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/1048841761814186947'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/2010/10/famous-and-infamous.html' title='Famous and infamous'/><author><name>ramblingman168</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15945041027732914289</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RC6m4_ZZrKs/TLiQPpjVZ0I/AAAAAAAAACY/4wzp2hWN_I8/S220/my+pics+169.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-501506662335652373.post-9070663186615470816</id><published>2010-10-19T00:32:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-10-19T00:32:07.355-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Bill Clinton- ebonified! (from '07)</title><content type='html'>...Good evening. (What's up).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This afternoon in this room, from this chair, I testified before the Office of Independent Counsel and the grand jury. (Today at my crib these suckers&lt;br /&gt;and playa-haters started grillin' me).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I answered their questions truthfully, including questions about my private life, questions no American citizen would ever want to answer.&lt;br /&gt;(They started frontin'about my game and asking&lt;br /&gt;all kinds of foul shit).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Still... I must take complete responsibility for all my actions, both public and private, and that is why I am speaking to you tonight.&lt;br /&gt;(I'm tired of these haters throwing salt in my game. I'm going to let y'all know my Mackin style tonight).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As you know, in a deposition in January, I was asked questions about my relationship with Monica Lewinsky. While my answers were legally accurate, I did not volunteer this information.&lt;br /&gt;(Awhile back, you nosy mother fuckers wanted to know if I was hittin' ho-ass Monica's skins, you did not have any video, so if you want to&lt;br /&gt;believe a 10 ho, then oh well).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Indeed, I did have a relationship with Ms. Lewinsky that was not appropriate, In fact... it was wrong. It constituted a critical lapse in judgment and a personal failure on my part&lt;br /&gt;for which I am solely and completely&lt;br /&gt;responsible. (Yeah, I was hittin' that dime dropping Bitch! She was only sucking my jimmie though. I was stupid for messing with a young, big-mouthed skank........, but don't hate me because I'm a playa).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I told the grand jury today and I say to you now that at no time did i ask anyone to lie, hide or destroy evidence. (Outside of that shit I told punk-ass AG (Al Gore) to put on gay-ass Starr, Monica and her snitching friend, I was chill the whole time).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can only tell you I was motivated by many factors. First, by a desire to protect myself from the embarrassment of my own conduct.&lt;br /&gt;(Man look, I heard she was down with what ever. She wasn't all that but I planned to pimp her around to my boyz in the Senate).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The independent counsel investigation moved on to my staff and friends, then into my private life. And now the investigation itself is under investigation. (Those haters started&lt;br /&gt;sweatin' my homeys and my peeps. I got real pissed when they tried to make me look like I'm not real or something. As a matter of fact their shady asses are on the take anyway).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This has gone on too long, cost too much and hurt too many innocent people. (Tryin' to hit me they wasted a lot of Cheddar and pissed off my Crew).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nothing is more important to me personally. But it is private, and I intend to reclaim my family life for my family. It's nobody's business but ours. (I'm a pimp and playa and I'm going to be one! Get some business'. Hillary is chill because I got more than enough White Water dirt on her ass, that&lt;br /&gt;will get her sent up before I'm outta here).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is time to stop the pursuit of personal destruction and the prying into private life and get on with our national life. (Quit  harassing me because I'm going to Floss regardless.

No big deal, he can believe whatever he wants, just as long it does'nt interfere with the policy's implementation.&lt;br /&gt;   I personally do not see anything wrong with gays being in the military, how does their being gay effect the way they serve? do they shoot crooked? is their judgement affected so that they cannot tell friend from foe, ally from enemy? When soldiers are questioned they all say the same thing: "gays make us feel uncomfortable" living in close quarters and all, and they find it hard to focus on their given tasks. What? is the only reason gays join the military is pick up on some fine military ass? stop kidding yourselves! you're all not so fine that they are willing to risk their careers over you! As a matter of fact they join for the same reason that straights join for... pride, training with the most high tech equipment there is, to protect the ones that they love. Don't they have the same rights to do this as you? they are not willing to risk all this for a piece of ass!&lt;br /&gt;   the military is not out "witch hunting" the gays serving, a "gay rights" group, in response to the before mentioned moron claims that there are about 64,000 gays presently serving in the military today. That's 64,000 seving without incident! I make this claim with somewhat as-surety being that if there were "witch hunts" going on, we would have heard of them already. The problem with gays serving in the military does not come from the gays serving themselves, but from fringe wacko activist groups that demand that gays be able to serve "openly".&lt;br /&gt;   what the hell does "openly" mean? can anyone tell me? what... do they want military issue cammie thongs instead of cammie boxers? Do they want to sashey instead of march? and when it gets hot, do they want to pull up their shirts and tie the front into a knot so that their midriff shows? what... openly means anything and everything without blame. When you join the military you swear to do a few things, one of them being to follow the codes of conduct. The military is governed by them. One of these codes is "sexual conduct, or mis-conduct" if a hetero breaks this code it is called sexual harassment. it is normal, well accepted, not taken lightly, and always punished(when reported). If a gay does it, when it is reported, you are considered to be a homophobe, diseased and in need of therapy...why? It all boils down to the same thing "sexual mis-conduct"and it should not be allowed, and always punished.&lt;br /&gt;   As one who did not serve in our military, I write as one who is on the outside looking in. In my ever so humble opinion, In this time of war, I would rather be in the field with an openly gay soldier than a hidden racist. I would not trust a racist to cover my back, but a homosexual wouldn't hesitate. No pun intended.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/501506662335652373-997225633602298424?l=ramblingman168.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/feeds/997225633602298424/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=501506662335652373&amp;postID=997225633602298424' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/997225633602298424'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/997225633602298424'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/2010/10/dont-ask-dont-tell.html' title='Don&apos;t ask, don&apos;t tell'/><author><name>ramblingman168</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15945041027732914289</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RC6m4_ZZrKs/TLiQPpjVZ0I/AAAAAAAAACY/4wzp2hWN_I8/S220/my+pics+169.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-501506662335652373.post-1903622992281313846</id><published>2010-09-30T03:34:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-09-30T03:34:54.946-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Police and abuse</title><content type='html'>Lets start off this way, I love the police, they have a very hard and dangerous job to do, and let's face it, not many people like them. I respect them for what they do, I'm not some ignorant minority bloc; whether black or Mexican, that blames all their troubles on the police. So it bothers me when they (police) break the law in everyday business. When they speed, make illegal turns or hit their lights so they can run a red. This is a slap in the face to every law abiding citizen out there. I know these aren't "big" crimes, but they are crimes nevertheless. Some would akin these to taking a pen from your work, or eating a banana at the market and not paying for it. True, they may seem petty, but when an officer pulls you over for the same thing that he does... Well... It's just insulting! As a law abiding citizen I teach my children that the police are the GOOD GUYS! But when they see, with their own eyes the blatant disregard for the law, by those who are supposed to uphold the law, it gets harder everyday. Now I'm not looking for angels on the force, but how about a little more common sense.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/501506662335652373-1903622992281313846?l=ramblingman168.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/feeds/1903622992281313846/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=501506662335652373&amp;postID=1903622992281313846' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/1903622992281313846'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/1903622992281313846'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/2010/09/police-and-abuse.html' title='Police and abuse'/><author><name>ramblingman168</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15945041027732914289</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RC6m4_ZZrKs/TLiQPpjVZ0I/AAAAAAAAACY/4wzp2hWN_I8/S220/my+pics+169.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-501506662335652373.post-8095912302003449690</id><published>2009-11-12T12:49:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-11-12T12:49:42.965-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Holiday trees?!?</title><content type='html'>What are "holiday trees?" what holiday do you celebrate with one?

President Obama is having a holiday tree, but what holiday is he celebrating?&lt;br /&gt;    A friend of mine says "Obama is sending a strong message of inclusion" since when was Christmas, and the use of a Christmas tree "exclusive?" Christmas is a christian holiday, but is celebrated all around the world. Even in times of war, fighting would stop on Christmas day. This new enemy that the world faces has changed everything! So now we have an apologetic president who is bending over backwards to try and please an enemy that doesn't care.

All this hope and change has brought nothing but an over reaching power hungry liberal congress who abuse their power  by attacking a private citizen in rush limbaugh(D- Sheila lee jackson). They did the same thing to Joe "the plumber"  &lt;br /&gt;    Congress is by the people and for the people. Not by the elite and against the people. We also saw how biased the MSM is. If you didn't believe it before you should now. Journalism is dead. They do not show news, they make it up. Everything they said about limbaugh was a lie. Taken from a book- "101 People Who Are Really Screwing America," by John Huberman, which DOES NOT provide specific details regarding the quote. &lt;br /&gt;    Now onto the 2 jokes of Jackson and sharpton. These two want to pass judgement on rush? Jackson who is a Jew hating, anti- Semite? Who called Jews in NY "hymies" and NY "hymietown" Jackson who had a long standing adulterous affair with a woman and fathered a child with her. this Jackson passes "moral" judgements on limbaugh?&lt;br /&gt;   Sharpton; of Farrakhan, brawley, and duke lacrosse fame! This "race baiter" among race baiters. Who made his name slandering those pesky "white interlopers." he wants to pass judgement on limbaugh.? He has one of the most vulgar and profane mouth's out there.! &lt;br /&gt;  the libs came out with all guns blazing!, the equivelant of America bringing out the army, navy, air force, and marines. Their mission, to stop a private citizen from owning something!. "don't politicize the NFL" they screamed. All the while, doing the very same thing they screamed not to do. Why all of this? Because liberals hate him!, (they hate and demonize everyone that doesn't have their beliefs). Because he shows them to be the complete fools that they are. And since they can't win any argument on it's merits, they resort to lies, and character assasinations. I posted before about the great and wonderful people that actually play in the NFL. To keep rush out because of his politics is truly sad.&lt;br /&gt;   What frightens me the most is, that these actions seem acceptable to people. From congress, MSM, Hollywood and the entertainment industry. "snitch" hotlines! All politics is personal, unless you are effected by it, you stay silent.

Or what has changed socially in the recent past that we, as a country have come to this point of accepting socialism as normal. What came to my mind is the "Peter pan" syndrome. People just don't want to grow up. They are responsible, but only because they have to be. Not because they want to be. If they could find a way of having their needs taken care of, not having to do it themselves, they would. Enter socialism. Mommy and daddy government taking care of their kids. If your like me, growing up in a "middle class" working family. You have at one or more times in your life didn't get everything you wanted. Sometimes your parents couldn't afford the $100 jordans, and you had to settle for "payless" shoes. That is part and parcel of life. Same thing with socialism. Government mommy and daddy, because of all their other dependents can't afford to give you everything you want. But you will get what you need. Healthcare, food, clothing, housing, reduced utilities. The only problem is your not living your life to it's fullest potential. You are living a life unrealized. When we were teens, we rebelled against authority, we couldn't wait to live our own lives, and not the lives of our parents. So what happened from then till now? Why are we running headlong into the arms of mom and dad big government. The same authoritarian rules apply. They support you, you live by their means, their rules. I just don't get it.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/501506662335652373-6508098573717764200?l=ramblingman168.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/feeds/6508098573717764200/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=501506662335652373&amp;postID=6508098573717764200' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/6508098573717764200'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/6508098573717764200'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/2009/09/peter-pan-syndrome.html' title='Peter pan syndrome?'/><author><name>ramblingman168</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15945041027732914289</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RC6m4_ZZrKs/TLiQPpjVZ0I/AAAAAAAAACY/4wzp2hWN_I8/S220/my+pics+169.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-501506662335652373.post-7886309616819034527</id><published>2009-06-09T23:17:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-06-09T23:42:37.871-07:00</updated><title type='text'>I just don't get it</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=font-family:"dauphin"&gt;Pravda in Russia is saying "America is running towards marxism at an alarming speed". The EU is shifting to the right, France and Germany are saying our economic policies are dangerous and will not work. We almost lost our triple-A credit rating. Our main debter, china is worried that they will be unable to collect this huge debt of ours. Supreme dictators Chavez and Castro are saying Obama makes them look like "conservatives" in comparison. The government now owns the banks, housing, auto, and wallstreet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Obama and his party of miscreants continually blame bush for this economy. "they inherited it". Now according to Obama himself, FDR didn't do enough, didn't spend enough. So they spent 4 1/2 times the amount bush spent with his TARP money. And the country is still messed up and is not going to get better in the immediate future. Using their logic of spending, why are they bashing bush?. He did the very same thing they did. The only difference being, he didn't spend enough. So bush was trying to save the economy also. Right?. Of course not, he's an evil republican, and Obama is a benevelent democrat. I've laid this all out there, mainly because I just don't get it. How is it that those who voted for Obama still believe his BS, still believe that he's some kind of savior?. What prevents them from seeing the basic truth that is in front of them?. Do they not realize a rising tide lifts all boats. That the freebies they receive will not benefit them in the end. When the price of everything goes up because of, in this case "super- inflation, their meesly $1000 a month plus foodstamps will be worthless. That they will stay poor for the rest of their lives. Is it worth it, just to see Obama and democrats stick it to the "rich". Governments pockets get lined with this money, government lives like the rich, off the rich. You peasants will never see any of that money in an amount that will change your circumstances. So I ask again, why do you put soo much "blind faith" in this man as your savior?.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/501506662335652373-7886309616819034527?l=ramblingman168.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/feeds/7886309616819034527/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=501506662335652373&amp;postID=7886309616819034527' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/7886309616819034527'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/7886309616819034527'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/2009/06/i-just-dont-get-it.html' title='I just don&apos;t get it'/><author><name>ramblingman168</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15945041027732914289</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RC6m4_ZZrKs/TLiQPpjVZ0I/AAAAAAAAACY/4wzp2hWN_I8/S220/my+pics+169.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-501506662335652373.post-5679516662581067709</id><published>2009-06-03T01:02:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2009-06-03T01:21:38.736-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Will blacks ever...</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=font-family:"dauphin"&gt;will blacks ever admit that they voted for the wrong guy,And for the wrong reason?. I work in the oil industry, and was talking with a fellow employee about the economy and how our business is going to be affected by the rising price of oil. The very first thing he said was "and I'll bet you'll say it barak's fault. Yes, he's black, which also allows him to call the president by his first name. I didn't feel like arguing, especially in a no win situation. So I just moved on. Which brings to mind another incident with a fellow employee(black). That happened right after the election. He asked me if I voted, I said yes. For who, I answered mcain. "it's because he's black, that you didn't vote for barak". I quickly replied "it's because he's black, that you did vote for him". Back to the now. Of everything Obama promised to fix, nothing is. As a matter of fact, everything getting worse. And this by his own admission. Does Rome have to burn before they(blacks) admit their wrongdoing?. That Obama is nothing more than a unqualified joke as president. I hope not. Mid-term elections are coming quicker than you know. I hope they(blacks) will do what is right for the country, and vote for real change. It may seem like I'm picking on blacks. I'm not. They did vote for him as a race at 95%. For them this past election was purely about race. All that mattered was the color of his skin. The one and only qualification they needed to elect him.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/501506662335652373-5679516662581067709?l=ramblingman168.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/feeds/5679516662581067709/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=501506662335652373&amp;postID=5679516662581067709' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/5679516662581067709'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/5679516662581067709'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/2009/06/will-blacks-ever.html' title='Will blacks ever...'/><author><name>ramblingman168</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15945041027732914289</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RC6m4_ZZrKs/TLiQPpjVZ0I/AAAAAAAAACY/4wzp2hWN_I8/S220/my+pics+169.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-501506662335652373.post-2107206859538322040</id><published>2009-06-02T23:58:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-06-03T01:00:41.919-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Freedom for one, freedom for all</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=font-family:"dauphin"&gt;dick Cheney said this quote the other day. "anyone should be able to enter into any union, any arrangement". I tweeted about this and it caused a firerstorm.  Cheney has a lesbian daughter, and says this has been an issue for his family for a long time. Basically he's saying she(his daughter) should have the right to marriage. As the former veep he knows that is not constitutional, and the courts have no business trying to make it legal. It's an issue of the heart for him. And I can understand that. My legal issue with all of this is the "slippery slope" theory, or dominoe effect. Let's say that I believe that I have the right to have sex with and marry an underage girl. Who are you to deny me my "right" to do this?. I'm sure there are plenty of men who would support this. Do we then go before the courts and demand that we be recognized?, that they and the people shouldn't have the power to deny us what makes us happy. Under Cheney's premise " any union, any arrangement". I should be allowed to do this. Is this what's next?. What about more than one wife, men with boys, humans with animals, etc. I don't have the right to do what I wrote earlier. It is against the law. Does that mean the law is unfair, or unjust?. No, the law makes everone equal when it is blind, and shows no favoritism to anyone. We are not talking about blacks being treated unfairly and in need of civil rights. gay marriage is not the "new" civil rights. It is political activism at it's worst. It will not end with gay marriage. There will always be a "new" civil rights problem.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/501506662335652373-2107206859538322040?l=ramblingman168.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/feeds/2107206859538322040/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=501506662335652373&amp;postID=2107206859538322040' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/2107206859538322040'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/2107206859538322040'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/2009/06/freedom-for-one-freedom-for-all.html' title='Freedom for one, freedom for all'/><author><name>ramblingman168</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15945041027732914289</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RC6m4_ZZrKs/TLiQPpjVZ0I/AAAAAAAAACY/4wzp2hWN_I8/S220/my+pics+169.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-501506662335652373.post-1133181186244406173</id><published>2009-06-02T23:12:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-06-02T23:46:40.312-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Words have meaning</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=font-family:"dauphin"&gt;let's talk about "rights", constitutional rights. We have the right to bear arms, freedom of speach is a right. These were passed down to us by the founding fathers of this great country. In today's society we have been dumbed down to the point where words have become meaningless. Where one can "love" ice cream, like they love a spouse. Constitutional "rights" are not a joke, they are not political. They are in fact "unalienable". The 14th ammendment gave "equal rights" to blacks. Because they were treated as subhuman. These rights were not given at the cost of everybody else's rights. That is they weren't called out, made special, and protected more than the rest of society. The civil rights movement came about because there were those who just wouldn't accept blacks as equal. For all men are truly created equal. Next came abortion. Abirtion was the new black. It is the "right" of every woman to choose this procedure. Words have meaning, just because you change the terminology of a word does not change it's true definition. Abortion IS murder. It is the taking of a human life. Now we have "gay marriage". Which is the new abortion. They cry that it is their "right" to marry a person of the same sex. What about the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness?. Nobody is stopping you from having such a relationship. My problem is that you want to be called out, seperated, made special, and protected. All this at the expense of MY freedom. You are not looking to be equal, but superior to me. You seek to make me subhuman. By destroying the institution of marriage. The constitution did not give me the right of marriage between one man and one woman. It only recognizes it for what it is. The foundation of society on this planet. It's no longer about rights as equal under the law, it's about forcing people to accept an unnatural premise. I've learned something about the constitution recently. An ammendment is just an add on to the original document. It is much different than a revision, where the original is changed to reflect the new. Roe v wade is "unconstitutional", it's not even an ammendment to the constitution. It is a court ruling. Which is why liberals care so much about supreme court nominees. If the SC leaned more to the right, roe v wade would be turned over in a heartbeat. Gay marriage is not a "right", which is why it's proponents use the liberal courts to get what they want. Government is by the people and for the people. The courts have no business in the way we are governed, yet in this day and age, they exert unprecedented power over our everyday lives. Gay marriage is a political agenda, not about "civil rights" as they claim&lt;br /&gt;, it's not about making people equal, but about suppressing the voice of the majority.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/501506662335652373-1133181186244406173?l=ramblingman168.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/feeds/1133181186244406173/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=501506662335652373&amp;postID=1133181186244406173' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/1133181186244406173'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/1133181186244406173'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/2009/06/words-have-meaning.html' title='Words have meaning'/><author><name>ramblingman168</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15945041027732914289</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RC6m4_ZZrKs/TLiQPpjVZ0I/AAAAAAAAACY/4wzp2hWN_I8/S220/my+pics+169.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-501506662335652373.post-7621198015277508537</id><published>2009-05-03T16:41:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-05-03T17:44:08.036-07:00</updated><title type='text'>may day melée</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=font-family:"dauphin"&gt;I found it necessary my dear friends to give my account of what happened two years ago, may 2007.

"illegal alien Mexican criminals" attacked peace officers who were assigned the duty of keeping the peace. they assaulted them with rocks and frozen water bottles sending more than a dozen officers to the ER. in the end the peace officers were demonized and blamed for what happened that night at MacArthur park. the police department was given a black eye that day. and by those who should have upheld them.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/501506662335652373-7621198015277508537?l=ramblingman168.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/feeds/7621198015277508537/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=501506662335652373&amp;postID=7621198015277508537' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/7621198015277508537'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/7621198015277508537'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/2009/05/may-day-melee.html' title='may day melée'/><author><name>ramblingman168</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15945041027732914289</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RC6m4_ZZrKs/TLiQPpjVZ0I/AAAAAAAAACY/4wzp2hWN_I8/S220/my+pics+169.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-501506662335652373.post-3968519565117351501</id><published>2009-04-28T21:00:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-04-28T21:15:07.733-07:00</updated><title type='text'>by the way...</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=font-family:"dauphin"&gt;oh, and by the way. do you know who owns GM?. you get three guesses and the first two don't count. the UAW. the united auto workers union now owns GM. it was handed over to them as payback for their support to the Obama campaign.

Obama pushed for "cap and trade" policies during his campaign. obama is again pushing for these policies, this time with the help of the "Eco- terrorist" group known as the EPA. who are now pulling permits, previously approved in new Mexico. coal is our cheapest source of energy, providing 51% of our power. "cap and trade" will destroy the coal industry. Obama knows this, but is still insistent on applying this destructive policy. these are everyday, ordinary American citizens just trying to make a living. every single job needs to be saved, and every single industry should have a chance to rebound and grow. government should not be the one determining which jobs, and which industry should be saved. it is UN-AMERICAN.

I personally won't be watching, but people need to get paid, they got bills to pay, families to feed. doesn't he care about them, or has he so soon forgot about where he came from?. the answer of course is no. he was always an "elitist", which explains why after 100 days every single one of his policies that he has rammed through are utter and complete failures. but I digress, if Obama wants to spend so much time in front of a camera, with his infomercial style speeches, he should pay for it. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/501506662335652373-5634604106662556568?l=ramblingman168.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/feeds/5634604106662556568/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=501506662335652373&amp;postID=5634604106662556568' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/5634604106662556568'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/5634604106662556568'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/2009/04/obama-superstar.html' title='Obama the superstar.'/><author><name>ramblingman168</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15945041027732914289</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RC6m4_ZZrKs/TLiQPpjVZ0I/AAAAAAAAACY/4wzp2hWN_I8/S220/my+pics+169.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-501506662335652373.post-4167537857504376577</id><published>2009-04-28T16:55:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-04-28T17:18:01.969-07:00</updated><title type='text'>turncoat?</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=font-family:"dauphin"&gt;arlen specter is this decades jumpin jim Jeffers.

I was taken aback by their response. in a time where even the president is talking about getting our morallity back, stuff like this is going on. my major complaint over this is of course, foxx is black and therefor given a pass on what he said. bloody murder was screamed in the streets when imus called college female basketball players "nappy headed hoes", let us not forget about kramer saying "nigger" while onstage at a comedy club. it's sad that blacks are allowed to get away with racism, just because of slavery. it's seems morallity has become relevant, and only applies to certain people. everybody should have been outraged at what foxx and his friends said about Cyrus. instead of showing passive silence.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/501506662335652373-1916490620901959419?l=ramblingman168.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/feeds/1916490620901959419/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=501506662335652373&amp;postID=1916490620901959419' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/1916490620901959419'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/1916490620901959419'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/2009/04/stand-up-and-be-heard.html' title='stand up and be heard'/><author><name>ramblingman168</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15945041027732914289</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RC6m4_ZZrKs/TLiQPpjVZ0I/AAAAAAAAACY/4wzp2hWN_I8/S220/my+pics+169.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-501506662335652373.post-7100301263977479620</id><published>2009-03-27T22:09:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-03-27T22:17:57.551-07:00</updated><title type='text'>WTF black people</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=font-family:"dauphin"&gt;a just paroled man in Oakland who abducted a 14 year old girl and raped her murdered 4 police officers the other day. and what do the black people do ?. hold a vigil for the murdering bastard !. why, because he was black and the officers were white. you people have your heads so far up your asses that you won't even see that this guy was bad. the racism that exists today comes from you, because you fucking can't get over slavery. slavery had nothing to do with what that bastard did, and with the choices he made in his life.

I like my streets without lopped off heads rolling down them. this my be culturally acceptable in Mexico, but not here. to legalize drugs would only sanction money laundering, with the government getting a cut. making a criminal an upright citizen by "default" is also not acceptable. but why stop with just drugs, let's legalize prostitution across America. make them pay their fair share also.

I'm not asking for much, only that all votes be counted in this past mayoral election. last time I checked, the county clerck still had 46,000 provisional votes left uncounted. yet the race was given to villaraigosa. it is still numerically possible for a chance at a runoff between villaraigosa and walter Moore. out of the 46,000 Moore needs 13,000 more for him, and another 13,000 not for

money. that being,government control over them. both mcain and shelby claim it is a backdoor access for government control. this is true, but TARP was only one "tool" for gaining this control. you also have universal healthcare. this will also be a way of deciding which companies fail or succeed. back in the nineties, Clinton was asked about "small businesses that. ouldnt afford to give their employees health insurance. she answered " then they shouldn't be in business". &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;it is not governments responsibility to run "healthcare", the "auto industry", "education", or the "energy department", the "banking system", or "wallstreet". yet this is what they are attempting to do. the American taxpayers are finally starting to show up, and voice their collective outcry against this growing and intrusive democrat government. and it's good to hear stuff like this from mcain, I just hope it's not mere rhetoric, and that the republican party in whole gets on board. the

type='text'>operation chaos: the revenge</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=font-family:"dauphin"&gt;this past election we (republicans) had our candidate picked by the democrat party and the MSM. it was then that rush limbaugh came up with " operation: chaos". it's sole purpose was to " bloody up" the democrat candidates, Clinton and Obama, and to keep hillary in the running. it worked flawlessly, Clinton was brought up things that wussy mcain wouldn't. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;every day Emmanuel has a conference call with old Clinton hacks begala, carville, and stephenopulous. they came up with the idea of flipping the script back on rush. now democrats have no foundation other than power, and how to get it and keep it. everything they do is " poll" driven. by throwing ideas up in the air, and seeing if they fly. or in this case with rush, throwing an accusation against the wall, and seenig if it sticks. yes, Obama is practicing alinsky tactics. but this is a fight he absolutely has no chance of winning. so why do it?. enter "operation: chaos- the revenge". this has nothing to do with "marginalizing" rush, that is impossible to do. he is who he is, and he is not a member, let alone the leader of the republican party. there is less than two years until mid- term elections. Obama is sucking ass, and what policies he has put in place are showing him to be the radical leftist that he is. the only thing keeping his "approvall numbers"  high is the MSM, who are keeping him afloat. but I digress.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;now, the revenge works in the same manner as the original operation. to have republicans bloody each other up trying to ascend to the "leader" of the party. while doing this, they have little to no focus on obama's policies, besides they're bad for America. not a very good objection. it makes them look small and petty, with no real alternative. rush's original plan worked flawlessly, the only reason we didn't get the candidate of our choice was mcain. in the end it hinged upon him doing his job and distinguishing himself and the republican party from Obama and democrats themselves. something that he was unwilling to do. so many Americans did not see any difference between him and Obama. democrats have no problem with showing the differences between parties. like they say, they won't let a good crisis go to waste. &lt;br /&gt;and the only true crisis in America is in the republican party. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;now there are some in the party that can articulate the difference between parties. the question is are they willing to get hammered by the MSM for doing it. gov palin spoke plainly, calling a spade a spade. her ONLY problem was, and still is, no support from her peers in her own party. a gutless and spineless bunch they are. the sooner "leadership" is restored to the republican party, the sooner we can get America back on the true road of freedom.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

table, nothing will be left out. there will be no sacred cows". this was said about his health care plan. update: the only things not on the table are privatized health care accounts. in which a person can have his or her salaries taxes and put into a special savings account, and used when needed. and if a person takes care of themselves and the money is left in there, they can withdraw from it without penalties. oh, and just leaving it alone completely. the "sky rocketing" prices are because of government intrusion. if they get out of the "healthcare" business, prices will adjust to a more normal rate. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;on a side note, president Obama still can't give a speach, any speach, no matter the size, without the use of a tele-prompter. and he's supposed to be the

type='text'>women, worthless ?</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=font-family:"dauphin"&gt;every time I hear of some girl or woman stay with a man that abuses them, because they " love him". I ask myself, why?. why do women devalue themselves so much. some stay out of fear for their life, which is legit, but in the end only prolongs the inevitable. can someone help me out here, because " I love him" is such as lame ass excuse to stay with someone who abuses you. is it something that is bred into women, is it part of their gene code, an anomaly that can't be explained. women have willingly degraded themselves for money for millenia now. yes, I think prostitution is degrading to women. to soil yourself with the emission of strangers does not give you any value. in the old days, I'm talikng biblical time, I could see it as necessary for some. women at that time actually were worthless. they had less value than animals. now young, cute pre-teen girls with their virginty were worth something. but only to the old perverts that wanted what was between their legs. they would be sold off to these pervs by their own fathers. but this isn't that time, and yet we still have women that believe they have no value. the oldest profession in the world has been "glamourized" as well as "legitamized" and is a multi billion dollar industry. women getting paid to degrade themselves on film, for the world to watch. what has happened to the real feminists, the ones that truly believed in equality of the sexes. todays young women need some good role models to teach them how to value themselves. because seeing another little girl like rihanna stay with a piece of trash like chris brown because she " loves him" is sad. what else is sad, is sorry SOB's like will smith and others that defend him, and trivialize what he has done. chris brown should be in jail, waiting to be tried for attemted murder. not running around in the streets free as a bird. when did beating and choking a person until unconscious, stop being a crime?. it is still, very much a "man's world".&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/501506662335652373-4519926355987709981?l=ramblingman168.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/feeds/4519926355987709981/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=501506662335652373&amp;postID=4519926355987709981' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/4519926355987709981'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/4519926355987709981'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/2009/03/women-worthless.html' title='women, worthless ?'/><author><name>ramblingman168</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15945041027732914289</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RC6m4_ZZrKs/TLiQPpjVZ0I/AAAAAAAAACY/4wzp2hWN_I8/S220/my+pics+169.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-501506662335652373.post-876161093745043970</id><published>2009-03-03T08:16:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-03-03T09:07:29.652-08:00</updated><title type='text'>israell/Palestine</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=font-family:"dauphin"&gt;blah, blah, blah. poor Palestine. everybody feel sorry for palestine. the gaza strip is in ruins because of evil Israel. yup, it's all Israel's fault for everything that is happening in the middle east. much like it is geaotge W. bush's fault for, well, everything else. I am pro Israel, I am a Christian. their god and my god are the same. but even putting that aside, I am still pro Israel. Hamas and Hezbollah have been launching thousands of rockets into Israel for decades now. not a single day goes by without one. now we have Hillary Clinton asking Israel to help stop the violence and make peace with the palestine. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have a few problems with that. Israel does not have a problem with the " Palestinians", but with Hamas and Hezbollah. it is not Israel attacking them, but rather the opposite. Israel has already given up most if not all of it's territory, save Jerusalem itself in prior " peace deals".  Palestine does not want peace, it wants Israel gone. period!. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the word "bi-partisan" comes to mind. well, liberal bi-partisanship. Palestine says how it's going to be, and Israel has to accept it. if not, then they are made to be wrong, obstructionists. they don't want peace, they are the ones getting in the way of peace. anyway, here is Clinton telling Israel that they need to get on board with things. she also says that the US is giving some 300 million in aid to Palestine, along with 500 million from the UN, and 1 billion from, oh, I forgot. but my point is, all this " aid to Palestine, to help rebils the gaza strip because it's destroyed and not a single penny goes to Israel?. are they not our ally?,. freaking A, we help rebuild countries that we fought against in wars, and we have no "aid" for our own allies. that is utter BS. giving monetary aid to the " responsible" Palestinians is like giving aid to the reponsible mexicans. the corrupt leaders take it, and it never gets to where it is intended to go. to help those it was intended to help. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and who are these " responsible" Palestinians anyway?. where are they, what are they doing to help stop the violence?.but chris, their scared,if they say or do anything they will be killed by Hamas or Hezbollah. what can they do?. so then, why are we NOT backing Israel?. does anyone with a brain think that iaraelis like living the way they do?. hoping today isn't the day they die from a rocket out of Palestine. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;this is the same scenario we had in Iraq. the people were slow to help us because last time we left them hanging. America promised support, and we renegged on that promise. leaving saddam Hussein to commit all the atrocities he and his sons did. he'll yeah, I would be reluctant to help. but thank god , bush kept his word to the iraqi people, and now they have true freedom. yes, we did WIN the war!!!. it's the same thing all over and over again. American leaders must choose to see right and wrong, good and evil, and not get it twisted. you want peace in the middle east, then go after the ones that destroy peace. you want a stable government in Mexico, so that it's violence will stop pouring into American cities. then go after those who destroy such things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;it was said somewhere to have peace, is to prepare for war. well, something like that. all I know is the "abscence" of war does not mean peace. is America to be "peace keepers" or "peace makers"?. a peace keeper refuses to see a wrong, and therefore does nothing to fix it. a peace maker, sees the wrongs, and fixes them. this is a nation under god, our constitution was founded on godly principles, one being that all men were created equal. and all deserve to be free.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/501506662335652373-876161093745043970?l=ramblingman168.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/feeds/876161093745043970/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=501506662335652373&amp;postID=876161093745043970' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/876161093745043970'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/876161093745043970'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/2009/03/israellpalestine.html' title='israell/Palestine'/><author><name>ramblingman168</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15945041027732914289</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RC6m4_ZZrKs/TLiQPpjVZ0I/AAAAAAAAACY/4wzp2hWN_I8/S220/my+pics+169.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-501506662335652373.post-6237781764159621029</id><published>2009-03-02T19:26:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-03-02T20:19:36.984-08:00</updated><title type='text'>missile defense-less</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=font-family:"dauphin"&gt;an "un-intended consequence" of the Iraq war was the uncovering of the worlds biggest conspiracy against this country. sadly enough, we never hear anything about it. you would think that finding out that France, Germany, Russia ,and china were all in bed with Iraq and funding terrorist activities through the oil for food program would have been headline news.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; now we have Obama talking with Russia about not putting missile defense systems in Poland and the Czech republic. was it only last year that the KGB, led by Putin,rolled his army into georgia attempting to put it back under KGB control so that he can control the oil. not to get off topic but we did find WMD's in Iraq, they were shipped to..you guessed it, Russia. but because of "strained relations", gee, I wonder what strained it, bush kept silent about the whole deal. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the missile defense systems that we were to put in those two countries were for our defense as well as poland, the czech republics, and Georgia's. Putin is as deranged as abombinadinnerjacket. and obama's looking to him for help with Iran?. but Iran is such a small country, it poses no threat at all. remember, you member.  is there no limit to this administration's naïveté?. diplomacy doesn't work with these people, hello 19 UN resolutions didn't help with Iraq, diplomacy is not working with north korea,russia, and it won't work with  Iran. it hasn't worked with Iran. hello, is this thing on, asking Putin to help with Iran, is like asking the wolf to guard the henhouse.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;people, we are in some serious deep doodoo.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/501506662335652373-6237781764159621029?l=ramblingman168.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/feeds/6237781764159621029/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=501506662335652373&amp;postID=6237781764159621029' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/6237781764159621029'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/6237781764159621029'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/2009/03/missile-defense-less.html' title='missile defense-less'/><author><name>ramblingman168</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15945041027732914289</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RC6m4_ZZrKs/TLiQPpjVZ0I/AAAAAAAAACY/4wzp2hWN_I8/S220/my+pics+169.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-501506662335652373.post-5905313622250105817</id><published>2009-02-28T12:18:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-02-28T12:26:18.111-08:00</updated><title type='text'>the difference between a tax cut and tax credit</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=font-family:"dauphin"&gt;stolen from rush:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CALLER:  I wanted to share quickly what I found out when I had my taxes prepared last week.  The man that prepared my taxes for me cautioned me to watch out for my tax cut.  He said, and you may want to adjust your withholding to take that back away, because the tax rate tables for next year when preparing taxes are not changing.  So I could possibly owe my tax cut back to the government next year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RUSH:  You gotta be kidding.  Not even I was aware of this trick.  Say that again.  They're not changing the rates, right?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CALLER:  The tax rate tables that they use when you prepare your income tax.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RUSH:  Yeah, these are not tax cuts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CALLER:  Right, exactly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RUSH:  These are transfer payments.  These are tax credits and all that.  There's no tax cut here.  I should have been able to think of this on my own here, absolutely right.  You're getting income, you're going to be taxed on it next year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CALLER:  Right.  And we won't be able to pay it back $13 a week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RUSH:  'Cause the same rates -- ah, man, your tax preparer is not only pretty smart but he's pretty forthright and honest with you on it.  So what you are going to do?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CALLER:  Change my withholding and take my tax cut away so I don't have to pay it back next year.  Thank you, president, for nothing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Obama is proposing to raise taxes on households earning over $250,000 by increasing the rate on the top two tax brackets and limiting deductions, starting in 2011.  Republicans and other critics, knowing they will get little mileage from defending the rich, instead are casting the plan as a tax hit on people who run industrious little companies driving job growth.  That's not likely, according to one in-depth analysis, which found that more than 95 percent of small business owners would be off the hook."  The magical 95% number again, as in 95% of you are going to get a tax cut.  Well, we just had a call, Gail in Lakeside, Arizona, and she just had her tax preparer do her 2008 income tax return, and her tax preparer warned her about the Obama tax cut that starts in April, where many of you ostensibly are going to see $13 more per week in your take-home pay.  Withholding tables are being rewritten as we speak, so that when your employer gives you your first check in April you will see $13 a week additional in your net, and that reverts to $8 a week starting in January.  Gail's tax preparer told her to be very careful because this really is not a tax cut because they are not adjusting the rates.  &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;So the 13 additional dollars that many Americans will see in their paychecks is not the result of an income tax rate reduction.  It's simply a tax credit.  Even people who do not pay taxes will get this $13.  She was told by her tax preparer if you take the $13 a month, that is additional income that you will be taxed on next year, in essence you'll have to give it back, because the rates are not being lowered and that will be called income.  So there is no tax cut.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;make sure you make your deduction change now so that you dont get hit next year paying the check. well you're going to get suck paying it no matter what. better to have it spread throughout the year, rather than pay it back in one lump sum. and yes, thank you president obama, for nothing!.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/501506662335652373-5905313622250105817?l=ramblingman168.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/feeds/5905313622250105817/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=501506662335652373&amp;postID=5905313622250105817' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/5905313622250105817'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/501506662335652373/posts/default/5905313622250105817'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ramblingman168.blogspot.com/2009/02/difference-between-tax-cut-and-tax.html' title='the difference between a tax cut and tax credit'/><author><name>ramblingman168</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15945041027732914289</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_RC6m4_ZZrKs/TLiQPpjVZ0I/AAAAAAAAACY/4wzp2hWN_I8/S220/my+pics+169.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-501506662335652373.post-205461936161200087</id><published>2009-02-28T02:58:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-02-28T03:17:33.002-08:00</updated><title type='text'>watch out for the FUDS!</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=font-family:"dauphin"&gt;as I mentioned in my last blog I found myself in a huge mess on one of my favorite web sites. you see, I was mistaken for a "troll". now a troll is a liberal blogger who goes onto conservative sites and " muddies" up the stream of comments. how can I have possibly been confused as a "troll". easy, I had a "dissenting" view. upon further review I noticed that there were self appointed and self annointed "troll hunters". these would spot the troll, identify the troll, then go after "it". I'm going to call these people "FUDS". no it is not an acronym, it is more like FUD, as in ELMER. ssshhh!, be vewy, vewy quiet, I'm hunting trolls. hehhehhehheh. unlike wabbit and duck season, hunting trolls is never out of season. it's a full time job and it even comes with a benefits package. no experience is required, training is available. basically if you can point and shoot a gun, you're a

at the wrong place at the wrong time or these over zealous mofo's were actually out to get me.whatever it was it was a total clusterfuck for me.80% of me says wrong place wrong time.only because there was only really one other guy with a dissenting view.so maybe I was just lumped in the same category as him labeled as an enemy.but I didn't talk like that guy did so that makes the other 20% of me say yes,they were out to get me.and only because I held a different view than theirs.the funny part about all this was that there was more shit talked about my spelling sentence structure and punctuation than about my view.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;as I went back and read the thread again it seemed like my antagonistic friends were somewhat conflicted.like they weren't really sure if I was who they made me out to be.which would explain why they never really went in for a kill.towards the end one did finally make up his mind and deemed me an enemy.but it's cool if you can't stir up any controversy than you're not doing your job right.I really felt sorry for the people who were trying to understand everything but got lost in the fray.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyway I look forward to

type='text'>AWOL</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=font-family:"dauphin"&gt;an army soldier who went AWOL January 6th was arrested in boulder Colorado thanks to a tip given to police.end of story,NOT!.you would think it is,but sadly it wasn't.the reported took it upon himself to take a shot at the soldier by reoprting that  when he was booked,he had three pairs of panties in his pocket,and was wearing a thong underneath his boxers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;where did he get them,what was he doing with them?,the writer ask's.what is this world coming to,when a perfectly straight guy can't wear a thong?.I'm pretty sure he is straight,mainly because the writer would put himself in deep doodoo if this guy was gay.the activist would have been all over him for embarrasing him,ridiculing him,persecuting him,you name it.the bottom line is he would have been toast.also if he were gay,the writer would have attacked the army instead of the soldier.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;this writer made the story more about the underwear he was wearing rather than him being AWOL.and to finish him off,he let the world know where he was stationed,what company,and brigade.can you smell lawsuit,defamation of character.I think it could stick.I don't believe that the boulder PD went out and gave a news conference just to tell you the guy was wearing a thong.which is somewhat what the writer said happened."upon booking,the police said he had three pairs of panties in his pocket,and was wearing a thong under his boxers".yep,that's totally relevant to the story.&lt;div

showing America how beautiful and rich they are.if it were not for the minimum wage peasants that do all the "dirty work".there would be nonreason at all to watch.not that I do.I've never been one to fawn all over actors and actresses.to me,it's just another job.don't get me wrong,I don't mind rewarding success,but all these different awards for the same people is overkill.what is it that goes through the minds of the people that have to watch live,or set their dvr's,TiVo's,and still VHS'.can someone please explain this to me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;my problem with Hollywood is their political activism,and that they actually believe they are larger than life.that they actually "become" some of the characters they play.now at this award night,most,if not all the "participants" will be wearing white ribbons in support of gay marriage.there is no shame in their game.use whatever or whoever to further your cause.to willingly shove their activism down the throats of the viewers,shows a debth of contempt that is uncalculable.their arrogance is not without merit,still,many people will still watch,those who are on the other side poitically.why,not because they are sado-masochist's,but because they can seperate themselves from their politics.something that Hollywood is unable,or unwilling to do.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

type='text'>rise from the ashes  !</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=font-family:"dauphin"&gt;I witnessed something I believed to be mythical.the re-birth of the dead? MSM.like a phoenix that rises from it's ashes,so is the MSM.the MSM was vital in getting Barak Obama elected.but how was this done?.if you listen to talk radio,"objective journalism" is no longer alive.that might be so,but what is in it's place,could be far worse.witness the birth of "entertainment news".the equivalent of talk radio.when you look at things from the entertainment angle,which is talk radio.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;rush,hannity,levin are "entertainers".they take the news of the day and comment on them.the better you are,the more listeners you get,the more you make.it truly is an open and free market.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;it doesn't matter how you re-package,re-invent shit,it's still shit,and people won't buy it.which is why "progressive" radio is a complete failure.which begs the question,why bring back the "fairness doctrine",in any form.don't forget,the MSM were a major factor in obama's election.with millions less viewers,than listeners on radio to boot.rush,hannity,levin,combined,have about 50 million listeners.the viewing audience for these televised shows is considerably less.so has the tide turned,is the shoe on the other foot?.what is talk radio going to do,to be more competative in this industry.it seems the student has now become the master.in a perfect world,this would be a good thing.but last time I checked,this world is far from perfect.which means that the democrats will still go forward with some form of the "fairness doctrine".because as we all know,it's never been about fairness or equality,but domination.it is about squashing alternative opinions.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

type='text'>aren't there enough...</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=font-family:"dauphin"&gt;&gt;aren't there enough "rich liberals" out there with enough guilt to pay for every liberal program out there?.why does the government need my money to fund their liberal projects.it's no great secret,this guilt that the rich have.why they look for all the "social" causes to champion.maybe it's crocodile guilt,they feel guilty,just not enough to part with any of their money.democrat john Kerry insists that the taxpayer get no stimulus money." they won't spend it the right way,on the right things".yea,we would spend it on stupid things like food,or paying off some debt,possibly even buying a car.you know irresponsible things like that.Kerry believes that if you get government money,government should have a say on how you spend it.they're doing it with the banks,what makes you think that you're special.seriously though,with all the money out there between the soro's,geffen's,spielberg's,Hollywood,and the entertainment biz,why can't all their causes be fully funded by them.let me have mine,and we'll all be just fine. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;like they say in jail..."bend over a crack 'em!.&lt;br /&gt;      california's got a budget,and Californian's got screwed!.yep,that breeze you're feeling is your skirt being lifted,and your panties pulled down.&lt;br /&gt;      sales tax went from 8.25-9.75&lt;br /&gt;      gas tax from .18-.30 cents per gal.(add 9.75% sales tax on top).&lt;br /&gt;      registration fees just doubled.&lt;br /&gt;      there is also a "luxury tax" for lack of a better word.being a higher than 9.75% tax on big items like cars,houses.&lt;br /&gt;      there was other stuff,but I forgot.and you wonder why soo many people are leaving the state and taking up residence somewhere else.even the "illegal aliens" are leaving.why in the world are californian's not asking for schwarzenneger's head!?!.villaraigosa's also for that matter.we recalled Davis because of his registration tax,this idiot has screwed us much worse.villaraigosa is doing the same thing to the city of L.A.&lt;div

ignorant."science" was never illegal,embryonic stem cell research showed absolutely no promise at this time.adult stem cell research yielded better results.if there was promise in ESC research than let the private market fund it,not the federal government.that was bush's policy.this is nothing more than the same Hollywood liberals who believe in abortion for any cause who want nothing more than "cloning" of human life.this is what it is all about.no value human life grown in a lab,then killed for research.all in the name of "science".these hypocrites cry bloody murder when companies do

type='text'>redonkulus!</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=font-family:"dauphin"&gt;as all the leaders of the works gathered this past weekend in Davos switzerland.one thing remained the same.the world's hatred of the united states.we were again bashed,not just by the loonies from the soviet union and china,but also from our other so called friends.France was saying that the Obama administration was engaging in "protectionist" policies.which is true,only here we call it "socialism".another leader said "just because GM has a new CEO,doesn't mean were all going to go out and by their cars".refering to the Obama administration.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;translation:just because Obama is president now,don't think we all accept you (America).we still hate you.throughout his campaign,Obama apologized for America.claiming it was bush and his "cowboy diplomacy" as why the world hated us.Obama ripped America when he stumped in Germany.and it was the Germans ripping us at this summit!.I hate repeating this,not only because it is redundant.but it has a sense of mantra to it.but it bears repeating.we were sold a bill of goods with Obama.part of it being that the world would no longer hate us if he was elected.you know,the whole messiah thing.Obama got elected,and the world still hates us,the sea levels haven't receeded,the earth hasn't cooled,the economy has not been fixed,our mortgages haven't been paid,our tanks filled with gas,bills paid,poverty abolished,sicknesses healed,racism stopped.this messiah sucks!.good thing I believe in the real messiah,Jesus

never been accused of being stupid,because he's not.it is said "those who don't learn from history,are doomed to repeat it".Obama,being the smart guy that he is.knows that the last time democrats ran an economic plan without a single republican vote was back in 93'.Clinton did it.the very next year republicans won back the "house of reps" after 40 years of democrat rule.Obama knows his plan will fail in doing what he says it is supposed to do.when it fails he wants some of the blame put on republicans,something Clinton or the dems could not do.they owned it.what this bill is truly intended for is keeping democrat rule for another long period of time.if this bill is soooo great,and would do everything it is purposed to do,why share any of the glory with the republicans?.one would think that having success on such a grand level,should bring about the death of the republican party.so...why does Obama want republicans in on this plan again?...&lt;div

type='text'>the oldest profession</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style=font-family:"dauphin"&gt;so it seems the world's oldest profession is still alive and very well.there is a college girl who wants to get a masters in something (it doesn't matter to me) who is "selling"  her "virginity" to the highest bidder.she says there is nothing wrong with what she is doing.as a matter of fact her sister prostituted herself to pay for her education.I guess keep it in the family was one of their motto's.I guess if youbtell yourself something enough times you tend to believe it.she believes that what she is doing is not prostitution.let me see.selling your body for money=not prostitution. and 2+2=5,yea,I know.she goes on to say that it is just sex,just a one night stand,nothing more.she also doesn't regret what she is doing,so don't feel bad or sorry for her.to my estimate the top bid is at $2.5 mil lastly she says that the both of them will benefit "greatly" from this transaction.now speaking as a guy,there ain't no p***y in the world worth that much.now I can see spending that amount on a woman (wife) over a lifetime of marriage,but not for a one night stand.the person who wrote the article at the end had this question.with girl's virginity's being thrown away at such young ages today(they themselves do not even give value to their own virtue) why would anyone,anyone be willing to pay such a price for something of no value.why ask why... a fool and his money are soon parted.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

football,again.this time instead of getting knees to the chest and missing abfew days of school due to a bruised sternum.he got his bottom lip split open from a head butt.now onto the drama.the doctor that sees my kids would not see him,so I had to take him to the ER.he needed stitches,so we wait and wait and wait.5 hours in this place and nothing.so we choose to go to a different ER and are there another couple of hours.for what,for nothing!.it appwlears that after a certain amount of time...6 hours or so the body starts to heal itself.so now my son has what looks like a stuffed sausage with a hole in the middle with a bit of stuffing coming out the hole.the best the doctor can do is just clean it up.so yes I'm kinda mad.I wonder if I can sue,I mean my sons face is going to be somewhat deformed.so anyway,I spent 8 1/2 hours in the ER waiting rooms,basically for them to do nothing.TTYL&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

politically.which by the way,made for a beautifull Christmas and new years.I did though try to get my daily fix of "CGGB".needless to say,not much happened there.so I went total archival!.ok,time for some catchup.ramblingman just turned the big 40 on dec. 20,I spent 4days in vegas to celebrate.I also celebrated my 12th weddidng anniversary on the same day(a story to be told later).Christmas was awesome,new years...safe and sane,and now I look forward to a very prosperous year.I also am returning to work after 3 months off because of my back.definately looking forward to that.a man can only wear a skirt for so long(chauvenist pig comment).anyway I'll hit ya back later.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

type='text'>2x1 Christmas special</title><content type='html'>1).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=font-family:"dauphin"&gt;as most of you have heard by now.the president had two shoes thrown at him by an Iraqi reporter.the funny thing is,this guy is a real hero to our MSM.he did something they wished they would have done.of course the president is the villian.an un-named reporter says "doesn't the president know what a serious thingt this was.what a serious insult".as the president downplayed the whole event,he is now being impugned by this MSM for being so non-chalant about the incident.isn't it ironic,that what Obama is praised for,the president is impugned?.Obama is cool,collected,doesn't let anything get under his skin.even when he was in the thick of election battle.he always took the high road.so here is the president doing the exact same thing,yet he is treating the "middle eastern" people with contempt.because he doesn't know what an insult it is...or does he?.yes folks,he is deliberately mocking them.so says the MSM.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2).&lt;br /&gt;FRESNO – California fish and wildlife managers moved forward Thursday with plans to protect a fish species that plays an important ecological role in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, a move that could further restrict water pumping throughout the state. The Fish and Game Commission voted 3-0 Thursday to consider listing the longfin smelt as a threatened or endangered species under state law. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It also adopted emergency regulations requiring state and federal water managers to scale back pumping operations in the next 180 days whenever longfin smelt are near the massive pumps that send water to more than &lt;strong&gt;25 million Southern Californians&lt;/strong&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;Environmental groups blame excessive water pumping from delta for the plummeting of the longfin smelt and their cousin, the delta smelt. &lt;br /&gt;Last summer, a federal judge ordered federal and state water authorities to reduce the amount of water they pump through the delta in a bid to protect the delta smelt. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The pumping restrictions adopted Thursday for the longfin smelt could mean additional stoppages because longfin smelt move into the delta and spawn earlier than the delta smelt, according to a Department of Fish and Game memo.&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;this was an AP story from feb.7 2008.earlier it was reported even more pumping stoppage 20-30% more and in extreme cases up to 50%.throughout all this they(EPA) never say what role these fish play in the ecological system.who gets screwed from all this?,we do,southern california.this is the main source of our water supply.our way of living is compromised because of a stupid useless fish.all bow down to the eco-terrorist's&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

it.we would appreciate it even more if you stop lying about which party you belong to.you are not a republican,you are not even in public service,so why the hell do you put a "R" in front of your

Obama assures us that we will "never SEE him smoke" in the whitehouse.doesn't Obama know how people think about smokers?,how much they are hated?.I've seen the commercials,evil,uncaring smokers

type='text'>triple threat</title><content type='html'>1).a day without a gay:&lt;br /&gt;           as a proponent of prop 8,I actually like this idea.i disagree with it's premise(equallity).gays and lesbians already have equal rights.as far as the law is concerned.beneficiaries,medical benefits,etc.this idea was born from the illegal alien idea of a day without a Mexican.only nobody is questioning the "importance" of gays contributions to society.my only major problem with this is if radicals take over.you cannot "legally" call in "gay" to work,and expect to get paid for the day.it is not a legitimate excuse for missing.any company has the right to terminate any employee that does it.you are considered a "walkoff".this is where the radicals take over with their threats of boycotts and lawsuits.this idea goes farther than just taking the day off.it also encourages those who take the day off to do works of charity.you catch more bees with honey.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2).where is the feminist anger?:&lt;br /&gt;              last week a photo of an Obama speech writer was put on the Internet.this photo showed the speech writer grabbing the right breast of a cardboard cutout of Hillary Clinton.also in the picture was an in-named friend pulling clinton hair and head back,tonguing her ear,while pouring beer down her throat.is this not sexist to the Nth degree.yet there was no anger from any feminist group whatsoever.I know why they(feminsts) didn't back gov. palin,but Hillary is one of them.Hillary herself showed no anger.I guess boys will be boys,as long as they're lefties.or maybe she is just used to being treated like garbage by men.oh,the sacrifices one must make for political power.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3).another corrupt cop?:&lt;br /&gt;         we already have one cop on trial(mike corona)for corruption.we now have L.A. county sherriff lee baca talking about bribes and political favors.obama wants to tap some of our LAPD officers to help with the inaugural security.we are talking 1.7 million to do this.1 million we(the city) would cover.but possibly,Obama would pay for the whole trip.baca says "this would be good for the city,because sometime in the future,we might need a favor".is this not bribery?,quid pro who?.yes,let's send our police officers to help with security,this way,Obama will owe us a favor.political corruptness knows no bounds.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

unions,all unions.the most destructive force in the workplace are unions.for decades now they have priced their members out of good paying jobs that the members themselves wanted.unions are not all bad,it's the corruptiveness that ruins them.back in the late 80's to early 90's I was a member of the teamsters.for three years all they were good for was keeping bad employees employed,and taking

700 billion without even a by your leave.is it not the pot calling the kettle black?.telling the auto industry that they need to replace those who are in charge,because they are responsible for getting their companies in this mess in the first place.these two jokers should be replaced for causing this economic meltown we are in now.people who live in glass houses should not be casting

type='text'>useless scientists</title><content type='html'>this is a rhetorical question.but why is there so much fear in this country of christians and christianity.Christianity has been taken out of our schools.no bibles,no praying,no extra curricular activities.in health/biology you cannot teach abstinance.why?.you have all these theories taught as facts.theory of evolution,big bang theory,theory of reletivity,etc.but you cannot teach creationism.the more scientist attempt to dis-prove the bible and what is says,the more they prove it's truths!.I am not saying that you have to believe in creationism.that should be up to each and every individual to decide.I am saying it should be a viable option.now to the point of this blog.the Cincinnati zoo made a promotional agreement with  the creationist museum in Kentucky.to have a festival of lights and Christmas themes event at the musuem.it's aim to show the effects of biblical history in todays present and future world.of course some crackpot scientist got his panties in a bunch wrote a scaring letter to the zoo,and blogged about this event.in his blog he told his readers to write the zoo and complain also.which they did(monkey see,monkey do).so the zoo received hundreds of e-mails hitching about this promotion.and of course the zoo caved in and cancelled.this idiot scientist went on to say that creationists are an embarrasment to society and a laughing stock to the world for their @$$ backwards beliefs.this guy and all those who believe what he believes are like algore and global warming.the debate is not over,and why are you so afraid of such debate.your desire to be relevent has made you look like an impotent limp man.totally useless.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

type='text'>this might come as a shock</title><content type='html'>this might come as a shock to some of you.but I agreed with former president Clinton on his "don't ask,don't tell" policy.to restrict people from serving in our military because of sexual orientation is stupid(they don't ask a person if they are racist,do they)I'm sure there are some serving.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;it does not and should not be a determing qualification on a persons ability to serve.his move was brilliant.1) it allowed those willing to serve,serve.2) it prevented un-unnecessary lawsuits by militant activist's.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ask yourself,who is more dangerous.a murderer,rapist,or homosexual serving next to you?.let's see,a murderer will kill anyone,straight or not.a rapist will rape anyone,straight or not,a homosexual will check you out in the shower.I'm being absurd to show absurdity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;don't quote me on this,but I speak with almost assurety.95%+ of gays just want to live their lives in peace.the right to life,liberty,and the pursuit of happiness.they serve for the same reason every other person serves.pride in our country,freedom,and they are willing to risk their lives to do so.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;a benefit of serving is learning discipline,and core values.which is then carried over into their private lives.ex-military people are some of the most successfull people out there.to keep gays out of the military is to say,they don't want success for their lives,all they want is a good piece of @$$!.Obama needs to leave this policy alone,this is not a can of worms that needs to be opened.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;this might not be PC,but then,since when have I cared about being PC.there are "gays" and there are "flamers".straight guys do not like &lt;br /&gt;"flamers"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"flamer": a non discriminate gay person.this is the guy that wears neon pink hot pants and a tube top,and will hit on every guy in a room.&lt;br /&gt;"gay": just like you and me,discriminate,keeping his sexuality to himself.&lt;br /&gt;just like nobody likes a guy that will hit on every girl in a room,who boasts on how he is built like a horse.nobody likes a "flamer".behavior like that will bring on a swift @$$ kicking in the lens room."gays" in the military...ok."flamers" in the military...not!.&lt;div

march,and file suits with the anti-prop 8 people that is fine with me.if they desire to be activist/lobbyist's they must first resign from their positions as mayor and governor.they were elected to represent all the people,not a vocal and violent minority.the same thing goes for those in the city assembly that voted to push for lawsuits.resign your positions,then you can march up and down city streets to your hearts content.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;when will the non-militant anti 8 people realize that those whom they support(the people and party of "tolerance") have absolutely zero tolerance for those who do not agree with them.you are witnesses now to how they feel about them.by remaing silent,you are guilty by association,and thereby support their militant tactics.even the getaway driver in a bank robbery is guilty of robbing the bank.I know for a fact that not all those who are against prop 8 are as extreme as those you see in the news.fear is why you wont stand up.fear is what keeps good people from being witnesses in gang crimes.you know full well,if you stand up,they will turn on you and do to you,what they do to their enemies.the anti-8 people demand that you bow

I refer to is my discusion with my friend.that we had such a civil discourse on the subject of prop 8.there were no name calling,no heated arguements for or against it.just two people with different opinions talking with each other.this is the way it should be.this is the way it could be,if people choose to talk WITH one another.instead of AT each other.now I'm not saying you can't be passionate about something.but there is a difference between passion and zeal.nobody likes a zealot,but they can appreciate passion.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

type='text'>like it should be</title><content type='html'>I had a wonderful conversation with a friend of mine earlier today.we dicussed prop 8.me being for it,her against it.it was very civil,considering the polarizing nature of the topic.I later began thinking,how is it that such things can get so crazy.especially homosexuality.it is not just a cause,it's gotten a life of it's own.people can't seperate themselves from their beliefs.if you speak against one,you speak against the other.it is literally taken personally.as a Christian I have caught grief for this.you know I'm a hater.I hate gays and I don't want them to be happy or equal to me,well because they are beneath me.this could not be further from the truth.I just come at this from a different perspective.which is,homosexuality is just another sin.like adultery,theft,etc. I believe there is an absolute truth in this life.it is not relative,or semantics.I know,who am I to judge them,to tell them that what they are doing is wrong.but in truth,I judge no one,god is the one true judge.whether you believe in him or not.you know there are people out there that believe it is okay to have sex with children and babies.to have sex with animals.to them truth is relative,they believe it's okay,so who am I say different.raping murderers in jail despise child molestors.and when given the chance will kill them on sight.is this not,mere moral equivalence.there must be absolute truth.good and evil.I think it was Orwell who wrote "without god,anything goes".do homosexuals say rape is wrong,child molestation is wrong?.do they think it.if an initiative was placed on a ballot to legalize child moestation of boys(I say boys,because there is a real group,that believes it is okay for this to take place).would they vote against it?.would they be considered "haters".they want what homosexuals want. "equality".they want this practice to be as widely accepted as homosexuality.they too want to "come out of the closet".and make you accept them,not tolerate them,but accept them.if you don't they will attack you,if you say anything against them it will be considered hate speach.if you don't accept them you will be a bigot and man-boy lover-aphobe.they are truly watching,and waiting to see the outcome in this political battle concerning gays and lesbians.I believe this should not even be a political issue.it didn't belong in politics.it always has been and should have remained a moral issue.you don't have to believe in god,let alone accept his statutes.we all have free will.in saying that,nobody should have the power to impose their will on anyone else.the right to life,liberty,and the pursuit of happiness is ours for the taking.but must be done within the &lt;br /&gt;parameters of the laws that govern it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;update:&lt;br /&gt;      the group I

type='text'>time to boycott!!!</title><content type='html'>there is a decades old war in America.between Christians and Christianity and those who hate them.it started many years ago with "seperation of church and state".a catchphrase turned into mantra to demonize the enemy,just like "swiftboating".this was done to get Christians out of politics.Christianity IS a part of this country.this country was founded on it's principles.whether you like it or not.but there are those(who are in a minority,and behind closed doors) are trying to remove god from this country.they have removed Christmas and Easter vacations from our schools,removed praying and taking a bible on campus.you cannot teach any of it's principles.in gov.you can't even say "merry Christmas",you cannot wear red and green colored clothing during this time.they have removed crosses off gov. seals.Christians have been labeled "haters" because we are finally starring to defend ourselves in the political arena.parents are being told they have no rights over what their children are being taught.once they cross the threshhold onto campus.they belong to the gov.there is no thing as parental notification on questionable subjects,no "opting out".so now we are coming upon the "holidays".yes there are a few holidays bunched together.but only one where you buy gifts to give.that is Christmas.this is where the boycotting comes in.ANY store whose policy is to remove Christmas.do not buy there.if as a christian,you are celebrating the birth of your lord and saviour.do not give your hard earned money to a business that rejects what you stand for.let the secular world prop them up.there are businesses out there that believe in Christmas.the bottom line is you do not have Christmas without Christ.let's show the "Christian haters" that we can use the same tactics as they do.only without threats,intimidation,or violence.we don't have to stand outside of their businesses with signs and attack those who patronize their establishment.we can still send a strong message to these people.if you want our business you must tolerate our beliefs.in any business out there,you can't put down your customers and still expect them to buy from you.this is what happens at Christmas time.Christians are spat in the face,being told I don't believe your Christian garbage.but give me your money anyway.enough is enough.let's show the world we are real,and we mean business.yes the world.Christmas is celebrated all around the world.and there are Christians in every nation.&lt;div

state why batman is the greatest superhero.yes,superman has powers,but he also has 2 huge weaknesses.1). cryptonite,even in small amounts it is deadly to him.2). he's not all that bright,always choosing to rush in.superman's greatest enemy was a human(with superior intellect).which leads me to batman.it is in fact batman's superior intellect that makes him the best.to create weapons,come up with tactics.sheer brute strenghth doesn't match up to intellect.never has,never will.also look at batman foes,all of them were criminal masterminds.just to prove my point even more.if you look at ALL

most definitely brings life. : P&lt;br /&gt;I recently "came clean",or "out of the closet" concerning a condition I had.in light of this revelation I found leaving a "comment" on someones blog,and "commenting" on someones blog.are two very different things.commenting on someone else's writings was "reactionary".whereas leaving a comment took more time and thoughtfulness.which is why I don't leave " comments".I like being shallow.j/k ttyl&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

type='text'>wack-a-do</title><content type='html'>I just got back from delusional city,in the land of daily kos.I read a blog written by parker2001.inhis blog he is angry at the msm for doing interviews(too many) of governor palin.this same msm that had multiple orgasms over the past two years over Obama.in this persons mind the tingling sensations running down matthew's legs are gone.and they(msm) are an "official arm"of the republican party.LOL!,I'm sorry I can't help myself.this is ludicrous.this is the same media that did everything in it's power to destoy this woman.now the are an official arm of the republican party.Parker goes on to say that he is increasingly furious,because in his mind.they are giving gov. palin more air time than Obama.might I remind parker,this is the same msm that did absolutely nothing to vet obama.and when anything questionable came up.they covered for him,or just ignored it all together.i have noticed that the press is in it for themsevles.yes they have chosen who's side they want to be on.and are 100% completely biased.but they still want to be relevant.they want to be important.they helped get Obama elected,that was their goal.they pat themselves on the back for that.but they don't want to share in his presidency.the dirty secret is,they know full week who this guy really is.and what havoc he is going to wreak on this nation.and that,they want no part of.don't get me wrong,they will still do everything they can to help Obama,for as long as they can.bit when "it" hits the fan.they will jump ship.you are already seeing a distancing.matthew's,and brokaw saying "they don't know who this guy is,nobody knows who this guy is(although they really do).and another reporter saying Obama is "creepy".Parker,live in reality,the "historic" part is over.gov.palin is a threat to you and your party.because she is a true conservative.despite what you hear from your peers,there was no mandate for Obama.republicans were punished by their own.obama only got 52% of the vote,bush got 51% in 2004.yet with bush,the country was divided,and Obama,the country is united?.I don't think so.and another thing the single most important issue that put Obama over the top...tax cuts!.he had to pretend to be conservative in order to win.the majority of people believed they are going to get a tax cut from this guy.gov.palin really believes in them,and is not lying just to get you to vote for her.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

type='text'>somebody please</title><content type='html'>can somebody please tell this buffoon of a governor,that we don't need to be taxes more!.if he wants to tax someone,he should tax the money sent back to Mexico,by illegal aliens working "under the table".last year 20 billion untaxed American dollars were sent back to Mexico.20 billion taxed at 10% -2 billion for our treasury.while you're at it,remind him,the one thing that got him elected in the first place.was his promise to repeal the triple rate car registration tax that Davis imposed on us.so don't hike our rates now.and last but definitely not least.we have a vast resource of wealth off our coast's.if he schwarzennegger would take his head out from of his behind,he might get a clue.the American people want us drilling our own oil,to lessen our dependence on foreign oil.it's just a fringe benefit of having the oil in your backyard,that you get a cut out of the profit.don't you think this income will help.this fool thinks he is re-electable,if he so chooses to run again.whether he does or doesn't,the financial problem will still be there,unless something is done now.and I'm not talknig about taxing the states citizens

swear,these guys are so predictable.whisenhunt,coach of the Arizona cardinals,almost cost his team the game tonight.why because of predictable,stupid play calling.Phillips,coach of the Dallas cowboys,did the same thing against the eagles.it's not that hard to understand,yet they don't.if your team is controlling the game,you don't just try to kill some time,then play prevent football.where is the logic in giving your opponent a chance to score a game winning drive?you have the ball and momentum,you ram it down there throats!.for those whondont know what I'm talking about.this is it.when there is less than 3 minutes or less in the game.all you need is 1 first down,instead of going fir it,you play conservative,you don't get the first down and you end up punting.the other team now has a chance to score the go ahead td or field goal.my point being,all you need is 1 first down,than you can take a knee,and run out the clock.you are in control of the game.in tonight's game the 49ers came within 2 yards of winning the game.my beef is still,why even give them that chance,when all you needs was a freaking first down.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

last minute choice.you see my 10 year old is one crazy mofo,just like his pops.because of this,my 14 and 15 year old boys,my two 13 year old nephews did not want to go.they were all afraid to go on the big boy rides.so it worked out perfect with my 22 year old.we got there right at 10:am,we went all around the park,starting in camp snoopy,ending at ghost rider.my boys hit every ride.the lines didn't start forming untill around 2:pm.I have to say,only one thing brings me more joy than yesterday,and that's Christmas.there is nothing more joyful to me,than watching my children unwrap presents on Christmas morning.but this was close.to see the expressions on my son's face after he got off the rides.priceless.we stayed for 10 hours,and boy were my dogs barking.man,my feet hurt.needless to

believe.I do not hate them.I still follow them.I once had a myspace friend,whom I found through another friend of mine.she was totally liberal,hated bush,republicans,and conservatives.her page and comments were against them.I asked her to be my friend,she accepted.it was cool,no probs,that is,until we started chatting together.I still remember the last comment I made to her.I told her how great we were getting along together,like carville and matalin.the very next day,I kid you not.she deleted me as a friend,set her myspace to private,and I never heard from her again.I asked my friend what happened.but she never gave me an answer.why am I telling you this.because I lost my one and only follower because of politics.I'm not hurt because of this,I'm just trying to understand why.if everybody had to agree 100% with another,everybody would be single.when do liking someone,wanting to be friends become a zero sum game,all or nothing.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img

type='text'>let's talk candidly</title><content type='html'>prop 8,which passed last night.is not a ban on gay marriage.but a true definition of what marriage is.whether you like it,accept it,or not.it was instituted by god.it is the joining of a man and woman before god.but let's put that aside,and simply talk politically about this.because that it what was at stake.I'm not to good with time so I'm not sure if it was the last presidential election,or last mid-term elections.all across the the country,the people voted on a marriage definition initiative.most,if not all past.to have marriage as between a man and woman.earlier this year,the California supreme court.decided that the people did not know how to govern themselves,so they decided 4-3 to legalize gay marriage.directly against the will of the people.I thought we lived in a democracy,or does democracy only count if you are a liberal democrat.I use this terminology,because the media is reporting it as a conservative victory.I heard no outcry whatsoever from the ACLU,NAACP,or any other civil rights groupwhen these 4 judges overthrew the will of the people.this initiative was not even about the rights of marriage.gays and lesbians already have all the same rights.not all Herero's get married,some have civil unions,some are common law,still others elope.all are still recognized as legal unions.why is that not good enough for those gay and lesbian advocates.you put your initiative on the ballot,the people speak,and that's it.if you lose,you lose.if you win,you win.why do you have to resort to lawsuits,and activist judges who make up law according to their beliefs.Obama won the election,you expect me to just take it,to accept it.my guy lost,too bad,too sad.why can't gays and lesbian advocates do the same?.if Obama had lost,all who supported him would have gone ape$h!t.you know this is true.because it happened with both Kerry and gore.yet you see no ape$h!tting with republicans,because their guy lost.I bring this back to democracy.is it only for democrats,or for all Americans.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

about race.and nothing more.racist's for Obama,racist's against Obama,and undecided racist's.now that Obama has been selected,where do we go now.what do we do now.there are those who believe in his ideaology,those who don't know his ideology,those who don't care about his ideology.all these  voted for him.there is an old saying, "be carefull of what you wish for,you just might get it".those who voted for him,not knowing,caring,or hoping that he won't be as bad as claimed he would be.beware of buyer's remorse.I hope he won't be as bad as I know he is.but I did nor vote for him.so I do not,and will not regret my vote later on.so,in 2010 when the bush tax cuts expire,and your marginal rate goes up to 39.9%..don't start crying.jsut so you know,everyone that works pays on the marginal scale.capital gains are what small business pays,and corporate are what big business pays.last but not least,for all those who would dare to call me a hater.I call you a hypocrite.you have ripped my president for the last 8 years,via movies,music,the educational system,media.I have put up with your garbage all this time.so knick off!.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1'

month).you are supposed to write a blog a day for the month of November.I tried logging into my noblopomo account today.but could not get in.probably because of my stupid iPhone.like I said,I have a love hate relationship with my phone.I do all my blogging from it.which explains why my blog home and blogs themselves are plain,to say the least.I really would like to add pics,links,and totally trick out my home page.my page should read "ramblingman168:blogging on the go".I attempt to blog as I speak,or should I say think.which is why my blogs might seem to be somewhat eratic.hence the name "ramblingman".a gift to me fr my ever so loving wife.I don't know the rules to noblopomo all that well.if I have to blog using their domain,or if this blog here counts.as for me,this is number

type='text'>cowboys...what happened!?!</title><content type='html'>I spoke before about the cowboy woes.the main problem I saw was tony romo.romo was their greatest strength,and their greatest weakness.he has been the teams problem all along.the boys have gone as far as they are going tongi with romo as quarterback.coach Phillips does not have what it takes to coach this team to be superbowl contenders,let alone champions.there is a reason why players are players,and coaches,coaches.players cannot self coach themselves.Phillips,having inherited this team,is choosing to be a "players" coach,than the "team" coach.which is also pat ofthe reason why they are in the situation they are in.don't believe me.look at what parcells has done with the dolphins.from the basement to the penthouse.in his first season as dolphin GM.back to romo.there was a reason why he went undrafted.this is it.some quarterbacks are just meant to be backups.they play their best football coming in off the bench.they just don't have what it takes to keep it going all season long.it's okay,he's not alone.you also have QB's like grossman,leinert,and others.I won't name them all.but romo is not alone.it is also nothing to be ashamed of.when all is said and done.the cowboys really have only two choices to make.1). start investing time,money,draft picks in finding a new QB.2). get a new headcoach with huevos enough to be the player's coach,not friend.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'
