"Climbed up into the satellite"
My favorite quote of two days ago...."there is nothing worse than a white metro-sexual trying to sound black."
-Laura Ingraham.
Well today was long and stressful but good. It seems like noon was days and days ago. Days and Days from now, that will be true, but for now it was only 12 hours ago. I was happy that I got the chance to listen to the whole swearing in of the Vice President and President. I was able to hear the whole inaugural speach. I can not see how someone could not just swell up with great pride in this great country and feel much confidence in our leader after that speech. I love and support President Bush whole-heartedly. He stands for the beliefs, values and principles this nation was founded on. He is simple, but powerful all in the same breath. He is not afraid to speak his mind. It's about time we have someone like that in office. I would almost dare say that he embraces the essence of what Rock-N-Roll was founded on. That "Never Mind the Bollocks" Attitude. But he does it in a responsible manner. He knows what truth is. He knows what Freedom is. He knows who freedom is entitled to. He takes the (what the media and other "pop" culture icons try and make seem huge) odds and stares them right in the eye. Texas style! He stands for what He believes and He stands for what is right. Who would've thought that it would be risky to say "I believe in God" or "God bless America" or even "One Nation under God". The media usually praises people who do things an little....risque, but sadly, when it has to do with something wholesome, they have to try and rip it apart. It's sad that the mainstream sees, and trys to portray it as risky and "bad". But thankfully, the American people showed that a majority of this country want these values, these beliefs, this Freedom, and this man to continue to guide us today. The last time I blogged anything about President Bush it was on my brothers blog and his daily visitation dropped over 90%. Since my blog has averaged about 4 visitors a day for the last 2 weeks....I guess there will be a drop to about .4 visitors a day. But if so, It will stand as a testimony that whatever I have said, weather you agreed or disagreed when you saw it, had an effect. More than anything I just needed to rant. All I've done tonight is vented off stress to any of my friends.....it was funny. I jsut started talking to a friend on the phone and next thing you know, I had spent the prev. half hour venting about the whole day. hahaha. But anyways....I love this country!!!! I'm glad we have the President and leadership in the Whitehouse that we do. They truly are the best men for the job. That's all for now. God Bless America.
"And so I came in the dead of night
Climbed up into the satellite and
Looked out over America
I swear I could see the buffalo
Ooo ooo oh and I never wanna leave
Ooo ooo this place
Ooo ooo yes I always wanna be
Right here!"

How sad...I actually knew your age before I even saw your profile. For someone to actually think that Bush is intelligent, what does that say for the future of this country? And in your post on MLK Day you actually had to question if what he did for our country was so great?? Please tell me what it was that Bush has done for our country that actually earned him another term? Well, you were correct about him being simple, simple minded! You are so young and so dumb. Please tell me that your parents did not flush a whole lot of money down the toilet for a higher education for you, if so they got robbed! What would be worse is if you actually went to college on grants or scholarships. That would make you an accomplice to the crime! Given this response is quite awhile since the inauguration and you are in real estate, how much do you support Bush now? How much less money are you making since we have him to thank for screwing our entire economy? It would be in your best interest to actually obtain a higher education before you try to make any more grown up decisions such as voting.

Wow.....i havent posted anything to this blog in ages. Nothing like a challenge to bring me back. Following the cowardly pattern of so many liberals, you choose not to show your name. You act like I was trying to hide my age. Well You win the award. Give you a high five and a cookie for figuring out that I'm 24. That's really good of you to guess my age since MTV and other media spots try and make it sound like most of the kids in America that are my age hate bush. You must be one of those guys that work at the county fair! I did not go to college. I educate myself daily in current events. I examine both sides of the story....not the one liberal side I would get in my "higher education". And what's wrong with being "simple-minded"? It dosent cloud your judgement. (Pssst.....the economy is up). You cant blame the president if you lose your job. He's not shutting down businesses.....the owners are. I thought that was obviouse. OOOOH I broke my leg today....must be Bush's fault. Step off, and dont ever show your face around here again if you are going to be anonymous.

I think Frank has a point about not going to college and educating oneself in current events. Raciest often find higher education too liberal; since it challenges them to view different subjects from other perspectives – like those whom the raciest scapegoat. It can be a scary world for small-minded raciest like Frank, so it makes perfect sense for his myopic would view. By the way, I’m not sure about were you living but gas prices are much higher than I care to remember. In closing, I would just like to say the Presidency is a CEO position and therefore running a Company/country in deficit mode would not fly on Wall St. nor should it fly for the United States of America.

Oh my, your higher education is following current events?? Were you sleeping during the events of Bush's first term?? What is so sad about your age is that your are an adult, yet you speak like a child. MTV actually being some sort of credible source of political information? Well I guess that explains your "education" or lack of. I wouldn't worry about your judgement being clouded, that could only happen if you came out of the current cloud you seem to live in long enough for you to see the reality of the situation. And our economy being up, like I said come out of your cloud. Maybe the economy is up if you happen to have some minimum wage job at the corner Quickie Mart (which is about all you can get without that over-rated, liberal higher education). For those of us who are actual contributing adults to society who did get that liberal education, it's a much different story. No, I did not lose my job. As a matter of fact, I have my own company that in it's second year has tripled it's profits. Hmmm, maybe Bush could learn something about profit. Considering he has managed to put us into the greatest deficit in history.(This following the work that Clinton did to put us into a surplus.) This is not a challenge because a challenge would mean that you would have an opportunity to win at something. This is just an observation of your lack of ability to make an informed decision. And I am not talking about the MTV based information you seem to be so daftly priding yourself on. Put down the bowl, get out of your pot cloud and go to school! This is something your mother should have told you a long time ago. And as far as being anonymous, not a problem. There's my name. Would you also like to know my rank in the US Army??? I guess I didn't mention that I enlisted in the first Gulf War. You were still wet behind the ears then. Do you even know anything about the first war? (And not the MTV rock and roll version.) Like I said, get that higher education because Bush is not going to do anything that would support your future. If anything, he has made your future alot less bright. By the way, that higher education would also help you spell and use the English language in the correct context. That's at least one thing you have in common with Bush.

mr. mccall can spell myopic, but not racist. MTV sucks and I do not use it for current events.....i have no need to expain myself, but it's fun sometimes. My point about MTV is that they really try and paint a picture that kids my age and younger are almost all liberals, which is not the case. Congratulations on your business. You are living the American dream. I'm sure that tax cuts help your business tremendously. I am also living the American dream and already making more money than my father as a paralegal.....without school!?! How can this be. It's the land of opportunity sweetheart, and I had someone willing to educate me on something by giving me hands on experience. I'm now learning how to run a business....all without getting in debt for school. I saw school was not for me (it definitley is for other people), and I educated myself in other ways. As far as what Mr. McCall said about not wanting to go to school because it challenges me to "view different subjects from other perspectives"; I challenge myself with other peoples' viewpoints. You cant know what you believe if you dont challenge that belief. The economy being up? Every time I hear a report about juob rates and such, it states that they are on the rise. Yeah gas prices royally suck right now. But they've been on the rise for years upon years. I remember when I was 12 and traveling through Georgia and the gas was 88 cents a gallon! It's nowhere near that now, and hasnt been in a decade. You cant blame gas prices rising totally on Bush. It has risen through presidents both Republican and Democrat. Liz, thank you for serving your country. I have much respect for that. I remember the first gulf war vividly. I know where I was at when it was announced that we declared war. (I was wet behind the ears....and probably a little in my pants too.) Anyway, I have to go finish work for today. I may even support that struggling worker at the Quckie Mart on my way back.

FYI I don't get ANY tax cuts. My business was built on MY money, no one else's. I have not even received loans or grants. It is quite surprising that any legal firm would hire someone as a paralegal without any education, even a minimum of a certificate. I am not so sure that I would hire a firm with such "liberal" hiring practices to represent me or my company. As far as making more money than your father, well, I would have to ask what your dad did. Work at McDonald's? The average salary for a CERTIFIED paralegal is in the low-mid 20,000's. Unless you seem to posess some incredible super talent that no one has, I would venture to say that you really are only a well paid administrative assistant. Which isn't a bad job if that is what you want to do. You are learning to run a business? I really hope your math skills are better than your spelling. If you want to run a business successfully you will need those skills as well as numerous business classes. But I digress, school couldn't possibly teach you anything other than liberal views. Jobs are on the rise? Only in very specific areas of the country and only in very specific industries. Besides, where else is the job market going to go? It's already hit rock bottom. Yes, Bush (and his dad)are to blame for the gas prices, his lies that led us back to the Gulf (and no, it had NOTHING to do with weapons or terrorism, no weapons were found and the terrorists aren't even in Iraq - some are even in the US) are the reason prices surged for crude oil. Then again, Bush is not alone in this. The moronic republicans that are helping to drive this country under have had a hand in it as well. If you go to newyorker.com/fact/content you will get a FACTUAL and unbiased time line of the events that took place leading to the Gulf War. It does not paint a pretty picture of Bush Sr., Bush Jr., or the rest of the republicans who lied to us. I know you hate to read (how can you be a paralegal and not read??) but you should read this. You will hopefully have a less romantic view of our government and our leaders. You may also find several other sites informative. These include worldnewsstand.com, freerepublic.com and cnn.com. Some are liberal, conservative and partisan. To clarify, I did not serve my COUNTRY in 1991. No war was EVER DECLARED. No threat was ever made against the US or its people. I simply had a job I was hired and contracted to do. I am NOT proud of having to perform that job. What happened in 1991 and even now includes a long list of war crimes committed by our government and leaders. What our government has done to Afghanistan alone is a war crime. In 1991, since war was not declared, our prescence and actions in the Gulf are considered to be war crimes. It is still being investigated as such. However, our government has this delusion that even though we are a part of the UN and want their full support, we are still above the laws that govern its policies. If this makes Bush rock and roll, I would have to start listening to country (UGH!). I stumbled upon your blog when linked through something else I was looking for. I felt it was necessary to respond because your opinions are young and naive. I cannot force my opinions on you and I certainly can see how you form yours, but it is a responsibility for you to educate yourself about those opinions. Not necessarily through school but through the many resources we have available to us. Yes, this is a great country that I proudly serve in the military, one thing that makes it so great is that we have the freedom to disagree with our government and leaders and that we have the right to hold them accountable for their actions. We can only do this by educating ourselves. Best of luck in your future.

Give us a kiss.
Knock it off, frank, you can't win with her sort. After all, it's her blog, isn't it?
Oh, and he's not just a paralegal (good work on the googled income figures), he's a parachuting paralegal! Does his work inbetween the exosphere and the ground. Gets paid bonuses for that, he does. One time, he swallowed a bug on the way down and got worker's comp for it.
But still, whether or not you wanted to do the task [who really wants to be involved in a war (and don't say W)?], I too sincerely thank you. I make it a point to thank all veterans and you're no exception.
And it's true that I'm a bigot, and maybe even a raciest. anon may keep the high five, but could I please have the cookie?
