Privatization at the United Nations

Sunday, February 12th, 2006

Apparently the UN is thinking of privatizing part of its general assembly. The US has put some pressure on the UN to clean up its act and to make the General Assembly more efficient or it will withhold 50% of its annual dues (which come to a whopping total of 22% of the UNs annual dues, at least 16% more than its closest contributor).

Privatize? Why don’t we just disolve the UN and instead use the money to help Katrina victims? Or better yet, let’s disolve the UN and move the money to someplace useful, like beefing up some of the proposed budget cuts for this year?

After all, do we really want to keep an organization around that was the purported brainchild of a KGB agent? I think not. Let’s get rid of it once and for all.

Abortion Ban Passes House in South Dakota

Saturday, February 11th, 2006

An interesting story showed up on Drudge Report for only a few hours last night. I was fortunate enough to not have a life to see the headline and read the article.

The jist of it is that the South Dakota House has approved a bill to ban abortion in all cases, with an exception if the mother is dying. According to the story, this ‘loophole’ prevents Doctors from being prosecuted in these instances.

According to my roommate, this is how it was across the nation prior to Roe vs. Wade. So, this is probably a good sign. Of course, the bill still needs to go to the state Senate, so we shall see if it passes. Makes me think I should move to South Dakota because its so very progressive….

Hopefully this will be just the first of many to pass anti-abortion laws that look to the protection of the mother and the child, rather than just the mother’s rights to have an abortion. I think now would be a great time to pray for the people who are looking at these bills.

Shooting Oneself in One’s Foot

Thursday, January 19th, 2006

Hillary Clinton made a mistake. A big one. Apparently she’s pissed off a lot of conservative, and not so conservative, African Americans. Her plantation comment was rather poor taste. But then, to top it off, she added you know what I’m talking about. The irony is that the Democrats have had strong ties to racial problems in the US. I’ve done some research, and while both the GOP and the Democrats are guilty of racial collaboration, to some degree or other, we must not forget that they tend to play the race card, have had much closer ties with the KKK, and tend to think they can say whatever they want without recourse.

According to Fox News’ Hannity & Colmes last night, Clinton has been invited for 3 years to attend the MLK Sharpton event, but has declined every year…until now. It seems that Clinton decided this would be a perfect opportunity to insult…err…rally the African American voters. Considering she has set her sights on the Presidency in 2008, its a bold move. I mean, to alienate a large number of intellectuals based on racial divisions is a rather intriguing way to get noticed. The funny thing is, the two guests on last night’s show were both pissed off at Hillary. Usually Hannity & Colmes is balanced, but apparently Mrs. Clinton crossed a line that most politicians try to stear clear of. I, for one, hope she runs and wastes millions of dollars, and, of course, loses.

We all want Condi to run. Let’s see if those Democrats are really as diversity minded as they let on. Condi is sharp, she’s agile, and sleek. She’s what people want in a modern decision maker. She’s not perfect, but at least she puts more emphasis on doing good for the country than her counterpart, who only cares about voters and her ability to sustain her celebrity status, and her senatorialship. Is it me, or does it seem like Republicans are often playing political defense, while Democrats are playing political offense? Of course, one might argue its because the Republicans are ‘in control,’ but I wonder if that is really true. Why do politicians remind us of babies who are fighting over a toy? hmmm.

When I see and hear Condi, I feel proud that she’s in the position she’s in. I feel safe that she’s Secretary of State, and she gives the impression of a cool, collected, straight shooting son of a bitch. When I see and hear Hillary, I hear a lot of hot air, and usually feel like I need a shower afterwards….she leaves the impression that all of this is a game, not to be taken seriously. Afterall, she’s trying to go from one of the left-most senators to one of the middle of the road senators. Unfortunately for you, Hillary, one of our most evolved traits is to see and not trust phonies. May you lose gracefully.

Boston: The Moment of Reckoning

Friday, November 4th, 2005

An unruly homosexual mob demonstrated without a permit against a church in Boston during its Love Won Out conference. The Boston Police did nothing to clear up the crowd. They did keep participants at the conference from leaving until the mob went away. How ridiculous is this?!

As hundreds of people from across Massachusetts and other states came to the Tremont Temple Baptist Church to attend a widely acclaimed conference on recovering from homosexuality through a relationship with God, angry and enraged homosexual activists converged outside to intimidate and terrorize them.

What The World Needs Now…

Thursday, October 27th, 2005

Ryan Miner is having his First Amendment Rights stripped by a Catholic University….

Ryan Miner, 19, of Hagerstown, Md., was sanctioned by Duquesne after posting his view [that homosexuality was ’subhuman’] in The Facebook, an online directory that is not related to the university.

Miner opposed an effort by other students to form a Gay-Straight Alliance group, an issue that is still being debated by the university.

A 10-page paper was assigned as punishment. Miner said he refuses to write it and will file an appeal.

Way to go Ryan. Stand up for your rights. Screw those liberal bastards who think that only their opinion regarding diversity is important.

Let’s all stand behind this stalwart fellow.

Tribute to Thomas Jefferson

Friday, October 21st, 2005


Here are some Thomas Jefferson quotes:

I have sworn upon the altar of God, eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man.

The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not.

The price of freedom is eternal vigilance.

There is nothing more unequal, than the equal treatment of unequal people.

We must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt.

Ignorance is preferable to error, and he is less remote from the truth who believes nothing than he who believes what is wrong.

Condaleeza vs. Hillary in 2008…

Wednesday, October 12th, 2005

There’s a story coming up on Fox News @ 10 that I’ve been thinking about for at least the last two years…. In 2008, wouldn’t it be great to elect the first woman president? And wouldn’t it be great to elect the first African-American president? Yes. Yes. Yes.

If Hillary is running, I want Condaleeza to run. She’s awesome. I’d vote for her in a heartbeat. Who would you vote for?
