We (The US) Might Want to Denounce!

I know these threats from the north are a dime a dozen; however, they could also mean something - could lead to loss of life... especially, if there is no acknowledgment or consequences from the US!


A year ago Wednesday, North Korea launched an attack on the civilian island of Yeonpyeong, killing two marines and two civilians and shattering the sense of security that South Koreans had enjoyed for almost 60 years.
The island shelling came half a year after North Korea torpedoed a naval ship, the Cheonan, killing 46 sailors

Hero? Really?

Just curious if these are the goals you set for your children?
Taking LSD was a profound experience, one of the most important things in my life. LSD shows you that there's another side to the coin, and you can't remember it when it wears off, but you know it. It reinforced my sense of what was important--creating great things instead of making money, putting things back into the stream of history and of human consciousness as much as I could.
The suscess of Jobs is clear, but do you think he couldn't have done it without LSD? Really? ...I believe that without the drug it could have been done and possibly better and faster! I KNOW, the drug wasn't the reason for his success, and hope others realize that!

Do We Care?

So we have big Al Gore trying in the news, do we really care?
Now Al Gore is getting on President Obama for opting against tougher air pollution standards.

Selfish non-Caring Attitudes

...are everywhere!
You are on vacation, a criminal breaks into a spree resulting in innocent people dying- Some died to protect you, I might add. So what is the first thing you think about?

The families of those dead, Thanks for those who put their life on the line for you, Thank God we are okay, or Pray for God to help those hurt - OH NO, NO, NO, you think "our world didn't got our way and we want something for it!".

Not sure what is more tragic, the deaths involved in this or the display of what appears to be the new national priority "me first and always"!

May GOD help us....and those suffered loss and tragedy this holiday weekend in Memphis!

An Idea...

...police your own before you tell us how to live our lives!

Those who seek to run our lives
Barack Obama tells us we are greedy and selfish, Nancy Pelosi compares some of us to Nazis, Dick Durbin compared our soldiers to the Soviets who ran the gulags. Still others call us racist if we disagree with them. Any time you turn on the TV you can find some politician lecturing us and wagging his finger in our faces, telling us how we should live our lives.

Culture of Perversion


Remember all the claims from the left about a "culture of deceit" and the calls for resignations? I hear/read no calls for resignation, I guess a culture of perversion is A-OK with the left...
...and I will not even mention the lies (deceit) Weiner has been caught in.

Memphis' Ties Record High Set in 1977

Memphis' Sunday temperature ties record high set in 1977 » The Commercial Appeal

If you believe the heat is due to "man-made climate change" and in no way is related to cycles in the weather - Please tell me what was going on in 1977...come on give it a shot!
When the thermometer hit 99 degrees at 1:53 p.m. at Memphis International Airport, it tied a record set in 1977.
How about fifty-eight years ago...you know when not every family even had a car, and if they did they had one...
On Wednesday, the high is expected to reach 97, which would tie the record set in 1953
Come on, I want to hear it - The Global Warming fanatics can tell me how and when we (human beings) will destroy the world, but they cannot explain why there are still record highs over 100 years old, nor can they accurately tell me what the weather is going to do tomorrow!

Do You ONLY Want State Approved Media and Information?

So Washington has a problem with misinformation on the internet - One of the best liars in politics is who they send out to advocate an agency to police it -
Bill Clinton doesn’t like all the misinformation and rumors floating on the Internet
So who is going to police them?

No, politicians can't be trusted, which has been proven many times and one of the reasons the internet has grown so quickly - Well lying politics and lying "main stream media", another bunch unworthy of trust!

No, I prefer to take my chances deciding who I should believe and who I shouldn't - I DO NOT need/want "state approved media/information"!

No Looting in Japan

Though "our" US reporters show their desire for horrific and tragic stories as they report with frustration the lack of human debauchery in the wake of human suffering, there are several opinions why these reporters aren't getting the stories they desire - From culture, which is debatable just ask Koreans and Chinese who lived through the Japanese occupations of the past, to a one-for-all-all-for-one mentality.

American Thinker: Why I do not have Solidarity with the Public Unions

Solidarity - Yea Right...

...let me get this right - It is "solidarity" when liberals agree with the "cause" and a mob when they don't.

Tea Party demonstrators had no violence (though accused but never proven), no taxpayer went without services (i.e. fake sick calls), no calls for "blood in the streets" - Yet they were a mob...

Now we have liars faking sick call-in(s), politicians saying "sometimes you have to get bloody", and protesters issuing threats...and this is a good thing.

Guess I am a stupid southern boy, because that makes no sense to me - AND, I pray it never does!

Don't Blame Oil Companies for Higher Gas Prices

Maybe a little economics 101 - Oil Companies have stockholders, possibly even you. The companies responsibility first is to the stockholders who invested in them, no not Billy Bob who they may have hired. ANY, increase in operational expense could cut what the INVESTORS get out of their investment...which could cause the stockholders to bolt putting the company in trouble and costing Billy Bob his job...

...so the easy fix is to pass this on to the consumer - SO don't blame the Oil Company for higher gas prices!
