I think this video swayed my vote….Think I will now vote none of the above.

A simple man tired of political gimmicks

How many war protests make the airwaves in the U.S.? How many of those that do make the airwaves have teeth and are not just “young hipsters” (not my quote) causing trouble? Yesterday marked an important shifting point in our country and yet no major media outlets covered it….why? Let’s take a minute to reflect on yesterday’s events as it was May day/Law day (LOL!).

The ILWU and it’s 25,000 + members chose this day to stage a complete work stoppage in 29 west coast ports. “Longshore workers are standing-down on the job and standing up for America,” said ILWU International President Bob McEllrath. “We’re supporting the troops and telling politicians in Washington that it’s time to end the war in Iraq.”

McEllrath says rank-and-file members made their own democratic decision in early February when Longshore Caucus delegates voted to take action on May 1. Employers were notified of the plan, but refused to accommodate the union’s request despite plenty of advance notice. The employer group, represented by the Pacific Maritime Association (PMA) consists of large carriers and port operators, most of which are foreign-owned. ~~~no wonder they didn’t approve of the work stoppage, they are too busy figuring out how to ship more full containers of “goods” in to our country and wondering what the hell to do with all the empty containers once they are unloaded as god knows we don’t produce shit in this country anymore.

Ahh, can’t wait for them to haul me off for questioning

A simple ashamed to be American man

With all that is going on I know you thought I forgot! I love you more and more everyday and look forward to our future together. Love,

Your crazy insane hubby

Today the world bank Wal-Mart/Sam’s Club announced that they will start “rationing” rice sales at their stores putting a limit of 4 bags per person (Looks like Costco is following suit). Why are they doing this and why here in the U.S. is this being done. Simple really, rice and grains are commodities and are bought and sold on the world market to the highest bidder. So what are the real world issues causing this to happen?

You are not worthy of voting, most of you are too young to drink and you have shown a brilliant prepencity for violence….want a job with a gun killing stuff?

Has our government lost their fucken minds? Have they not seen the torture pictures, videos of soldiers torturing animals or the senseless violence that our current soldiers are committing? Is the violence level not enough or is it that a lot of the current soldiers are refusing to take part in some of the sinister orders you are giving?

Seems that most felonies are not an issue when it comes to recruiting and with the Army and Marines wanting to recruit 80,000 new soldiers this year they have allowed more crimes to be waived. Assault, robbery and theft, drug possession and terrorist threats are now allowed by our military. Good game, seems we are gearing up for more war, wake up people!

A simple man past the age of the soon to be draft

Well, apparently it is that time of year again.

Our Lame duck president Our mindless twit is trying his hardest to push through the legislation that will cement him in history as the destructor of 3 great nations. I find this humorous and horrifying at the same time, if that is possible, about the possibility of merging nations. Don’t get me wrong, I love our neighbors to the north and I have family that have retired in Mexico as well as my younger brother. Merging the three nations would do a dis-service to all that live in these great once great countries.

Why is this needed? Why do we need the Amero? Why will this help to further enhance our lives and prosperity? Why is this being done behind closed doors under the guise of “free trade”? Read more

I never thought in a million years (or my lifetime anyway) that I would cave to the views of others but alas I have. A piece I wrote ruffled some feathers I guess, so much for the freedom of speech. I won’t linger on this subject long but I do want to respond to some of the comments I got, so here it is:

• For god fearing folk you sure like to talk about killing me ? WTF!
• The language used from some of you is laughable (in content and verbiage)
• Take the same passion that you have for faith and apply it to your country
• Realize that “your” religion is no better than any other (or none)

I won’t address this issue again as honestly I could care less, it’s not about “my god” or “your god” as my god (me, myself and my wife) is what runs and rules the decisions I make and I respect all that do the same. I have never criticized the church or religion specifically but I do criticize the establishment and the people that are pulling the strings.

The death threats, phone calls, emails, comments and the mystery package were all nice thoughts and I appreciate the wholesome loving attention that all of you have showered me with but alas the time has come for us to part. Read more

Well, I am proud, damn I thought I could use that word with our country in the title, horrified to say that the U.S. is more in common with countries that have no “real civil rights” than the country we called our home 20 years ago. This list of countries represent those who put to death the most citizens in 2007, strange I could have sworn the number was higher. Ah, now I know why, I keep forgetting my birthplace, my home turf, good old Texas. With state sponsored execution on the downfall in the U.S. the wonderful Republic of Texas is trying to buck the trend. Over 60% of death penalties carried out in our country happen in the State of Texas, take a second to ask yourself why.
