Your Mission, If You Choose To Accept It...

is to...

Nut Up or Shut Up

The past few weeks, I've seen people get so caught up in hurt feelings over ridiculous things, that we are no longer fighting the wrongs. We are fighting each other because of hurt feelings over misunderstandings.

With everything going on in our country: gun control, Obamacare, school choice, & the national debt, just to name a few. You're going to kvetch for days over a single tweet written by some guy/girl you don't know personally? You're going to attack or spam block someone because they told you that your panties are in a bunch? 

People please, get a grip. There is time for feelings & there is time for logic. Learn the timing for these. I'm not here to tell you when, learn it for yourselves. 

So, if we are ever going to win back America, you need to decide now, are you going to nut up or shut up?

The Big Mistake

See? Y'all should have voted for me. My inauguration could have been done for a lot less and been way more fun!

1) I would have used local bands from where I'm from. Okay. Actually, they would be the bands that my friends & family are in. Diverse group though. 

2) Two words: Pig Roast

I can stop right there. Why? Have you ever been to a pig roast? Laid back. Bon fire. (Well, maybe that part wouldn't work in January) Drunks lighting off fireworks. Pretty much, I would redneck up the place. Which would have made it more interesting. More easy going. 

But NO! You all decided to run a guy that had some government experience. How did that work out for you?

The preceding was sarcasm. If you don't get it, you must be a liberal.

I Believe...

I believe that the American people have forgotten that congress works for us. They are our employees & should be treated as such. They don't do their job, get rid of them. They want a raise, we should vote on it.

I believe that if your representative doesn't hold a town hall type meeting at least once a year, that should be voted out.

I believe if your representative no longer holds residence in your district, they should be voted out.

I believe that the 17th amendment should be repealed so we can restore balance to our republic.

I believe that there should be term limits for each house: 6 terms for a representative & 2 terms for a senator. That is 12 years in each house. 
 
I believe that politics can drive a sane man to drink.


I believe that the people in the capital need to remember whose money they're dealing with. That money is taxpayer money and belongs to the American people. It is not the government's money.

I believe we have allowed ourselves as Americans to forget our logical thinking and focus more on how everything 'feels'. Feelings are for relationships, logic are for law making.

I believe we need to start treating our politicians like the employees that they are. I believe we all as Americans should call, write, email, or tweet on a regular basis. They should respond to us in a timely manner because they work for us.

I believe we need to take back our country. Don't let the people in DC bully us any longer. We outnumber them. We have higher IQ's. We know that Guam can't tip over.

Hookers Union?

This came to me via an email, but I think it needs to be shared in the blogosphere.
Copier's note: I need not change a thing. No editing. Simple copy & paste. Enjoy!


A dedicated Teamsters union worker was attending a
Convention in Las Vegas and decided to check out the
Local brothels. When he got to the first one, he asked
The Madam, "Is this a union house?"
"No," she replied, "I'm sorry it isn't."
"Well, if I pay you $100, what cut do the girls get?"
"The house gets $80 and the girls get $20," she answered.
Offended at such unfair dealings, the union man stomped off down the street in search of a more equitable, hopefully unionised shop.
His search continued until finally he reached a brothel where the
Madam responded, "Why yes sir, this is a union house. We observe all union rules."
The man asked, "And, if I pay you $100, what cut do the girls get?"
"The girls get $80 and the house gets $20."
"That's more like it!" the union man said.
He handed the Madam $100, looked around the room, and pointed to a stunningly attractive green-eyed blonde.
 "I'd like her," he said.  
"I'm sure you would, sir," said the Madam. 
"I'd like her," he said.
"I'm sure you would, sir," said the Madam.
Then she gestured to a 92-year old woman in the corner,
"but Ethel here has 67 years seniority and according to
Union rules, she's next."

NOW you know what's wrong with the AUTO industry and


The seniority system in the House and Senate.

Cost of Paying Attention

Do you know what your congress is doing?
They are YOUR employees.
How close of an eye do you have on them?
Your money pays their salaries.

We have grown too comfortable in our lives to the point of becoming apathetic towards the government. We only hold a few accountable instead of all. This needs to stop! We need to pay more attention before the 11th hour on these deals. 

The government has slowly been conditioning us to give up our freedoms without a fight. Watch a movie from the early 80's, see how much the government & society has changed. Then watch the difference between sitcoms from the 90's and now.  

They're hoping we'll be distracted by lame talking points & internet meme to really pay attention to what they are doing. Well, until its too late anyway. 

One paycheck in and regret was known via twitter:

 and
http://twitchy.com/2013/01/06/crushed-unicorn-dreams-why-is-my-paycheck-less-turns-to-obama-vote-regrets-i-should-have-voted-romney/

Conservatives tried to warn them, but the messaging failed. Now we have a bigger fight on our hands. An United States representative from NY wants to repeal the 22nd amendment. If you don't which one that is, I'll tell you, its the one for presidential term limits. 

Here's the link:

We need to start paying better attention to them. This is just the beginning. Politicians need to remember we have the power to hire & fire them. This is our country! I will not bow down to any man & neither should you!

This is #WAR!

Romanticizing The Past

When I was little, I was fascinated with the Old West. I know, I know, people got sick & they died horrible deaths, but let me explain. I saw freedom in it. I saw adventure. I saw the generosity in the community.  If you didn't like the town you were living in, it was so easy to just pick and leave. No two week notices. No worrying about if you could find a house or an apartment in your price range. No monthly bills to forward to your new address. Don't get me started on how the banking system has changed. You were just able to be without Big Brother up your derriere. 

Since I had insomnia last night, I was able to watch 'Late Night Black & White' on GSN. What that consist of is two game shows from the late 50's & early 60's, "What's My Line?" & "I've Got A Secret". The reason I love these shows was how people dressed. The women wore tailored dresses, had their make-up & hair done, walked up straight, and talked like ladies. The men wore tailored suits. They were respectful. At the end of each round of "What's My Line?", the male panelists would stand to shake your hand. 

Don't get me wrong, I love living in present time. I have indoor plumbing and cable. Also, by today's standards, I not considered an old maid.  Which is a plus.
 
I guess what I miss is the mutual respect.

Oh, The Things I Learn!

This past week has been full of learning experiences. So I decided, me being the awesome person that I am, I would share them with you. That way you don't have to learn them on your own. 

* People who don't believe in God, want Him wiped from society also blame him for mass shootings. I spent 2 hours with this one last night. This is pretty much how the conversation went, "There is no god. How could your god allow this to happen? Your god sucks."

* New racial epitaphs regarding the black culture. Not that I knew a lot of them before hand, but with the country being quickly divided, I hear them all over the news.
From ESPN, I learned 'cornball brother'. Not sure why he would be a 'cornball', the only thing I can think of is if someone is light enough to pass as white, they're refer to as 'high yellow' & corn is yellow.
The other one made me go, huh? 'Black is skin color only.' Let that one sink in for a bit. I thought the amount of melanin in your skin was what made you the 'color' you are.  Is there something else that can make you a 'color'?

* First amendment is for liberal thought bubbles only. All others is not allowed. A conservative radio show host simply stated in a tweet that "Pres. Obama shouldn't politicize a memorial service" Didn't call him a name, wasn't being mean or sarcastic, a clear statement is all she made. She was berated by hundreds. How dare she say anything against Obama! (if you didn't know, the woman I'm talking about is none other than Dana Loesch (@DLoesch on twitter))

* Unions in Lansing Where do I begin? I think I'll just stay on the tent issue. A great majority of these we'll call them people didn't care that there were elderly & handicap people in tent as they tore it down. They didn't care that small business owner was inside protecting his investment when they tore it down. They also didn't care as they damaged his private property & called him vile racial names. When these 'people' found out there was a propane heater in there, they shouted for the tent to burn! Then we it finally fell, they took knives to cut the fabric to hand out as 'spoils'. After the people from inside left the scene, all you could see were capsized tables, the lawn covered with pamphlets, & one kicked in computer tower.

Basically what I learned is that a lot of the so-called free thinkers have the smallest thought bubbles.
