Republicans and their hypocrisies…Part 1.

19 Aug

We, Republicans, will fight for your right to be born, and then screw you over if you don’t fit the standard.  We will disown you, especially if you are gay.

We, Republicans, will defend the life of an unborn, as all life is precious.  But just in case, we’ll carry a gun to kill you, or “defend” ourselves.  Oh and we have no qualms passing down the death sentence.

We, Republicans, love god.  Just like the god we praise, we say one thing and act a different way.  Sure god loves everyone, but not equally.

We, Republicans, will defend the unborn life, but if you get sick and can’t afford health care, sorry you are on your own.

To be continued…

Surprise, surprise! Romney’s “Economic team” made up of 17 old white guys and 2 white women!

15 Aug

Wow, so out of 19 people not one is a “minority.”  Interesting.

Good luck Romney!

Red and Blue Country

02 Aug

Never trust anyone with a gun in one hand and a bible in the other.

I’m going to make some people really pissed off by saying this, but I’m saying it.  The reason why most innovation happens on the coasts, where a majority of “blue” states exist, is because smarter people are more progressive.  It’s a fact.  Just look at the map.  More respected Universities exist in more progressive cities.  More tech and innovative companies exist in coastal cities.   They’ve been exposed to different cultures, ideas, religions, and they realize that the world is not so small.

On the flip side, let’s move to the middle of the country where “conservatives” reign.  These places where farmland and less diverse communities exist.  These places where the gun and the bible go hand in hand.  These people who want smaller government and less regulation, yet dictate upon others who they can marry, who gets gets to choose an abortion, who gets the death penalty.  The very hypocrisy of these conservatives…the gun in one hand and the bible in the other.  Funny isn’t it?

And this is why the church is dumb.

21 May

You see, the church is against abortion.  I get that.  I have no problem with that to be honest, but recently they decided to fight Obamacare in court because they don’t feel like they should have to cover abortion through their insurance.  Why should the church care?  Their employees and people their insurance covers can simply NOT choose to do abortions, but is there any reason not to cover it…just in case?

The church and many people in this world feel like they have a right to limit the choices of others based on their beliefs.  I think it’s time to get over this mentality.

Religious freedom you say?  Well wait until Islam tries to implement Sharia law in the US.

There are certain rights that should NOT be taken away from citizens regardless of religion.  Taking away someone’s right to choose abortion is up the INDIVIDUAL, not a religious institution.  Churches need to realize the same institution of law they are trying to change protects many of the freedoms they have right now.  One day, their choices to try and limit the rights on individuals will come back to bite them in the ass.

Strange that people who have struggled for their own rights now want to limit the rights of another group.

13 May

Does anyone else find it so strange that, out of all the groups, the black community is against same-sex marriage.  After years of struggle trying to gain their freedoms, often fighting the same type of bigotry being spewed by their own leaders today, here they are condemning another group of people.  Ironic isn’t it?

Why are people with so much money F***ed up?

02 May

 

Just being blunt here, but why do a disproportionate number of wealthy people seem like they are addicted to drugs, chronic alcoholics, have tons of mistresses, or all these other odd things.  They also kill themselves.

If you’re wondering why this post, it’s in response to Junior Seau’s death.  It’s being called a suicide right now…I just don’t get it.

Tying a dog to the roof is NOT cool…

17 Apr

 

Sorry, but this is just not cool.

Where’s the common sense Mr. Romney?  And you expect Americans to trust you with the presidency?  How about we tie you to the roof?

When asked if he would transport a dog like that now, Mitt Romney said he would not.

“Certainly not with the attention it’s received,” Romney said.

ref:  http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2012/04/16/romney-says-he-wouldnt-transport-dog-on-roof-again/

It’s a good thing Mr. Romney won’t do it again…because it’ll lower his poll numbers.  But if it didn’t receive the attention it did, sure why not!

Being Right Versus Pragmatic

03 Mar

Found an interesting post floating around the net about being right versus pragmatic.  A lot of fight the winds of change, but really, that’s useless and a waste of time.  I think it’s a neat reminder to adjust to human behavior patterns and make the most of it.

Taken from:  http://www.marco.org/2012/02/25/right-vs-pragmatic

Relying solely on yelling about what’s right isn’t a pragmatic approach for the media industry to take. And it’s not working. It’s unrealistic and naïve to expect everyone to do the “right” thing when the alternative is so much easier, faster, cheaper, and better for so many of them.

I wonder how long until the industry figures this out.

Messed up on taxes

28 Feb

Yeah, so I messed up on taxes by not selling my stock losses at the end of 2011.  Now I’m left with a big bill to the IRS.  I guess I’ll have to sell and use losses another year, which means I’ll need some gains!  Gah.
