I have been flipping channels again, just to make sure I'm getting the complete picture and not falling into the "brainwashed" category by only watching one news channel. Let's see, here's the breakdown.
Five minutes on CNN - 1 story about CNN's streaming app on Ipad, 1 story on showgirls protesting hotel fees in vegas, and 1 story about toxic air and global warming.
Five minutes on Fox - 1 story on the Budget impass, 1 story on NASA's space program ending, 1 story on the Heatwave, 1 story on the boys in NY who are now sex offenders for mooning.
Hmm, showgirls vs. the debt crisis. Which one do I want to see? No wonder their ratings are lower than Mr. Rogers Reruns. So, no, I'm not really getting biased. CBS and ABC aren't on yet, so I will have to check in on them later today. But I really don't have high hopes for anything with much content. Keep checking your view and keep looking.

Mom's Not Afraid, and neither am I
One of the dems finally broke ranks and told the truth. Social Security is solid through 2037. Obama is a liar and just trying to scare people. Well here's a news flash, IT AIN'T WORKING!!!! The older generation have been prepared for Social Security to dry up and the threat of witholding is not scaring them.
The Cut, Cap, and Balance bill that is currently being proposed is one of the more sensible things to come out of Washington in years. Of course the president will veto it. It makes him behave like a president instead of the spoiled child that he is. Keep drinking that coffee american and call your congress folks to tell them they better support this bill. Maybe if we get enough support behind this thing they will override Obama and make him take a time out.
Alan West and Sarah Palin, where are you? We need a strong leader. One of you needs to step up and take the challenge.

McConnel is an IDIOT!!!
What the hell is Mitch McConnel thinking?! His proposal to give Obama a blank check on the debt ceiling is just about the dumbest thing I have ever heard. And it's not just Obama that I am concerned about. No president should have that much power, Democrat, Republican, or Tea Party. Those limits are in place for a reason, and we are seeing that reason right now. We are 14 TRILLION in debt!!! We have borrowed so much that we will NEVER pay it back. It's time to file for bankruptcy people. Let them default.
And don't start with the I'm young and I don't rely on Social Security BS. My mom is months from retiring. If we go broke then her retirement is shot, along with everyone elses. Here are the cold hard facts people, we have to get off the government tit. Social Security, Welfare, Medicare and Medicaid have been the Prozac of the nation for the past 75 years. It's time to wake up and get off our ass. Families need to pull together again and support our elders. Churches and communities need to support those that are in hard times like they used to do. Government needs to shrink down to handling the things they are supposed to handle and get their nose out of my food habits, religious beliefs, and LIGHT BULBS! (more on THAT later).
Those are not going to be popular statements, but doing the right thing isn't always easy and sometimes doesn't win you friends. But if you know what needs to be done, then you should have the guts to stand up and do it. I really hope the establishment is listening and bracing themselves for what is to come, because if they aren't, it's going to get ugly.

Confusion on Casey
You want to talk about a mixed bag of feelings, you have that when you look at Casey Anthony. I am outraged that this woman is walking free after killing her baby. Do I think she did it? You bet. However, at the same time I am happy that our justice system is still somewhat functional. The case has been tried in the media and Casey has been found guilty and would be in the execution chair right now if the mass majority had anything to do with it.
But, and here is the big but, the prosecution did not present a coherent enough case and the jury felt that they didn't present enough evidence. So the courts worked. Circumstantial evidence is not enough. The evidence did not come to a single, cohesive conclusion as to how this little girl died.
The saving grace of this is that Karma is a bitch. My prediction is that if this woman spends any time in prison she will not survive. If she is turned loose today, I don't think her chances are good either. The best hope she has for survival is to get the hell out of this country and go somewhere that no-one knows her. Bangkok perhaps. They have plenty of parties, depravity, and places to hide over there. But Karma is still a bitch, and she will eventually find you.

The Obsolete Man
We watched "The Obsolete Man" rerun of the Twilight Zone this evening and I was struck by how similar the outrageous rhetoric that was being spewed by "The State" sounded just like what is coming from the liberal left these days. For more info on this episode, here's the wiki link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Obsolete_Man Episode 65, made in 1961. They strove for the outrageous, but I don't think they knew how close to the truth they were coming.
The state had proven that "there is no God" and had banned books. Possession of a bible was a capital offense. We are coming ever closer to this reality. They are working on "proving there is no god." part right now. You were a brainwashed sheep that followed the orders of the state or you were declared "obsolete" and "liquidated". And I swear to you, the speech given by the Chancellor could have come from Obama's lips on CNN just the other day.
Where did we lose our way in the past 40 years? My grandmothers generation obviously understood. I think my mom's generation, with their drugs and free love and rebellion, lost sight of their pride and patriotism. Now they are trying to tell us its wrong to be patriotic and celebrate the 4th of july. I encourage each of you to watch The Obsolete Man and make your own decisions.

Slavery Revised
I have been watching the Civil War series on PBS. The twisted version that we learned in school is almost unrecognizeable in the documentary. The civil war was NOT just because of slavery, but because of State's Rights. Slavery came in at the end and finally became the most famous point of contention.
So I got to thinking, and the question came to me, "How did the Democrats gain ownership of the freeing of the slaves?" The Democrats were against freeing the slaves. The Republicans were behind it. Lincoln was a Republican, not a Dem. At some point in the last 100 years, the Democrats have managed to convince the minority population that they are their saviors. All that is really happening is that they are being enslaved again. This time instead of using them to harvest the cotton, they are using them to harvest votes.
Minorities are being enslaved by the social welfare crack that the Dems and Libs are dealing out. By making them dependant on the ever present welfare dollar and free healthcare, the Dems are assured their vote, just like a dealer is assured a return visit by the local junkie.
So why aren't the Republicans fighting back? Well, in a way they are. It is my theory that the Republicans that are tired of the Wishy Washy leadership of the party have broken away to form the Tea Party. Just as the Whigs succumbed to the Republican Party, perhaps it's time the Republicans went the way of the Tea Party. We need to get back to the basic idea that you are there in public office to serve the public, not your own wallet or those of your buddies.
