Amendment 1 of the Bill of Rights states that I have the freedom of speech. What they fail to mention is that in a union shop that freedom is taken away from you.
Now, don't get me wrong, I like my job. I just can't speak my mind at it. I believe in a strong work ethic, leaving within your means, and that most politicians are corrupted & money hungry.
I haven't agreed with a president in years. But, because I don't like the policies of this president, I am racist, ignorant, and closed minded. Which I find interesting. When I listen to my co-workers talk politics, they are all talking points, very little independent thought. And I'm the closed minded one.
They yell & scream, proclaiming all conservatives are a-holes and should die. I'm a libertarian. Conservative one, but still a libertarian. I do not ask for the death of any progressive. Most I want from them is to shut up! I can't concentrate on my suduko puzzle. Is that too much to ask?
I get pumped full of CNN & HLN at work. When John King comes on, the progressives/union joes start in. They become red in the face any time a republican's name comes up. I can't say anything. There are times I am afraid for my car! They can't touch me at work, but they can't still get my car.
Once I enter those doors, I lose one of my basic freedoms of being an American. I fear my working life would become a living hell if they knew I am a Tea-Party capitialist.
A riddle wrapped in an enigma clouded in mystery. I am who you see me to be. I am a human ink blot.

Titles & Pride
I have this problem with members of the church. Now I don't think they mean any harm, it's just one of my peeves. You might disagree. I'm mainly writing this to get it off my chest.
Okay, here it goes. I have a problem with people who have to introduce themselves as prophets, apostles, bishops, or what ever their gift may be. Here's the thing, I don't ever remember Jesus introducing himself as the Christ/Messiah. If you asked Him, He would tell you who He was. He is God in person and didn't shout it from the rooftops! I feel if you have to introduce yourself as your gift, you're boasting. Like you're better than the people who don't have those gifts.
I will probably have some people after me, but its how I feel. I'm still looking through the Bible for where Jesus introduces Himself saying, "Hi. I'm Christ Jesus." Why can't you just go by the name your parents gave you and let me find out what your gift is when its needed?

Warning: Idiot drivers are everywhere!!
Why are there so many of them? And why do they seem to travel in packs? Everytime there are strobing lights on the highway, they forget how to drive. Either they stare at the lights and cause an accident or they hit their brakes and cause an accident. I didn't think you really should have to take an IQ test to be able to drive! Seriously, how hard is it? I can understand slowing down for the cops' safety, but to rubberneck is almost suicidal.
Okay, I know you all have seen them, and if you haven't, you are one. Drivers who read the newspaper, shave their face, pluck their eyebrows all at 70 mph! You're driving a 1,000 pound perjectile at 70 mph and not paying attention to the road around you. (BTW, I'm guessimating to weight of a car/truck) I'm not for nanny stating when it comes to driving, but have some common sense though! Seriously.
I have this thing. I don't want to be in an accident. But if I am, I think its just right that if someone hits me, I get to hit them back. Am I wrong here?

Hollywood Hypocrisy
For weeks now I've been watching on TV shows on bullying and how we should all get along. You know, the stuff you get taught in grade school. What surprises me, ok kind of, is that the same people who preach this are some of the biggest offenders! Case in point, I've been watching things about this years CPAC. Which to be honest, I never paid much attention to before. This years different though. Why? Because I have twitter account. I follow Andrew Breitbart and the things that people say to him are just out there! They ask for his death & call him 'cock-sucker'. I don't understand. If you're a liberal, love everyone & wants everyone to talk PC, then why are you using gay slurs against someone? Straight or gay, it doesn't matter. Why are libs allowed to talk non-PC? I hear more hateful rhetoric from liberals than I do conservatives.
Hollywood confuses everything. I don't know if its something in the air or what. They forget to think for themselves. The always follow the 'trend'. Sad thing is they forget what it is like to live in the real world. Forget what its like to go paycheck to paycheck hoping to keep the utilites going. They preach on stuff they really don't know.
To anyone that reads this, I apologize now for not being completely linear. First time blogging & watching TV at the same time.
Peace & Blessings
