Just when I started thinking we had hope for our next generations.

How lacking has our culture become that we can not read something and understand or comprehend?

How insulting is it to have our government support making a freaking comic book to explain why something they made is good?

Whether you support the Health Care Reform Act or not, in this instance is moot. The sheer audacity behind this particular publication is absolutely amazing. Essentially by this publication, the author is saying “Your too stupid to understand this. Here’s a comic book.”

Have we really fallen so low?

The scariest part is, someone will read it, and think it gospel.

He who every morning plans the transaction of the day and follows out that plan, carries a thread that will guide him through the maze of the most busy life. But where no plan is laid, where the disposal of time is surrendered merely to the chance of incidence, chaos will soon reign.

Well, well, well, lookie what I found:

Sir Elton John has claimed that Jesus Christ was a homosexual during an interview with a US magazine.

The singer told Parade magazine, “I think Jesus was a compassionate, super-intelligent gay man who understood human problems.

“Jesus wanted us to be loving and forgiving. I don’t know what makes people so cruel. Try being a gay woman in the Middle East — you’re as good as dead.”

So, Sir Elton John believes Jesus was gay.  Thats just great.  It’s no wonder this happened. Quite frankly I’m surprised this hasn’t happened more often.

They knighted this guy??

They knighted this guy??

According to the news this morning, a protester in front of John’s Buckhead condominium, who allegedly picketed with signs saying “Why Elton John Must Die”,  is scheduled for trial this morning.  Well I say, Bravo!  Who does this “singer” think he is?  It’s fine that you are gay, but don’t you dare try to throw your personal lifestyle on to my Lord and Savior!  Blasphemy has no place in the public eye.  I hope this guy gets acquitted of all charges.

The belief in a supernatural source of evil is not necessary; men alone are quite capable of every wickedness.

Have a good weekend trip, Bloodspite, I’m on the clock.

The world is a dangerous place to live; not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don’t do anything about it.

Much of the social history of the Western world over the past three decades has involved replacing what worked with what sounded good.

If any one faculty of our nature may be called more wonderful than the rest, I do think it is memory. There seems something more speakingly incomprehensible in the powers, the failures, the inequalities of memory, than in any other of our intelligences. The memory is sometimes so retentive, so serviceable, so obedient; at others, so bewildered and so weak; and at others again, so tyrannic, so beyond control! We are, to be sure, a miracle every way; but our powers of recollecting and of forgetting do seem peculiarly past finding out.

I’ll tell you who doesn’t care…..the so called “president”. 

Could he be the first president who did not attend the Memorial Day Service at Arlington?  I think so….

Even looking back at the last 2 presidents, Clinton went to all 8 services in his presidency, Bush went to 7 of the 8, and he did not attend one because he was at another ceremony in France honouring D-Day Vets.  What really amazes me, is the fact that this is his second vacation just since the oil spill….that’s 2, count them, 2 vacations in just over a month?  WTF!?  and this is only his first year in office.  To me, this is total BS, and a complete lack of respect for this great nation, and the soldiers who bravely died so that we could enjoy freedom.  Mr. President, have fun shucking your duties, and ignoring the American people.  Hell, that’s what you have been doing so far, why should this surprise us.  I hope you have a rotten, crappy, miserable vacation.  Maybe if you get food poisoning, you might have a taste of what the people of this country are feeling because of your ignorance.

Journalism is just a gun. It’s only got one bullet in it, but if you aim right, that’s all you need. Aim it right and you can blow a kneecap off the world. Aim it wrong…

The major difference between a thing that might go wrong and a thing that cannot possibly go wrong is that when a thing that cannot possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible to get at or repair.

Mahatma Gandhi

Do not pursue what is illusory – property and position: all that is gained at the expense of your nerves decade after decade and can be confiscated in one fell night. Live with a steady superiority over life – don’t be afraid of misfortune, and do not yearn after happiness; it is after all, all the same: the bitter doesn’t last forever, and the sweet never fills the cup to overflowing.
