No Wait...

Ok, so I thought I'd found a pretty good poem (in my last post) to describe my feelings as of late towards the crazy politics that are going around, especially in light of Obama's latest debacle - the infomercial to top all ludicrious infomercials if there ever was one.

Anyhow- someone sent me these yesterday and I laughed until I feel off my seat...well, almost. I unfortunately respond better to crass humor than sugar coated ill-founded sensitivities when I'm between a rock and...a bunch of dim witted Demo's who want to 'redistribute' what I've worked hard to gain for myself and my own!). I can't afford to raise my son in a society devoid of personal responsibility ya'll::

Forrest Gump's re-vamped explanation for worldy woes:

Mortgage Backed Securities are like boxes of chocolates. Criminals on Wall Street stole a few chocolates from the boxes and replaced them with turds. Their criminal buddies at Standard & Poor rated these boxes AAA Investment Grade chocolates. These boxes were then sold all over the world to investors. Eventually somebody bites into a turd and discovers the crime. Suddenly nobody trusts American chocolates anymore worldwide. Hank Paulson now wants the American taxpayers to buy up and hold all these boxes of turd-infested chocolates for $700 billion dollars until the market for turds returns to normal. Meanwhile, Hank's buddies, the Wall Street criminals who stole all the good chocolates are not being investigated, arrested, or indicted. Mama always said: 'Sniff the chocolates first, Forrest'.

On a(n) (ironically) related note: The bailout, a different perspective Back in 1990, the Government seized the Mustang Ranch brothel in Nevada for tax evasion and, as required by law, tried to run it. They failed and it closed. Now we are trusting the economy of our country to a pack of nit-wits who couldn't make money running a whore house and selling booze?

The Republican Fisherman: a woman in a hot air ballon realizes she is lost. She lowers her altitude and spots a man fishing from a boat below. She shouts to him, "Excuse me, can yhou help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don't know where I am." The man consults his portable GPS and replies, "You're in a hot air baloon, approximately 30 feet above a ground elevation of 2346 feet above sea level. You are at 31 degrees, 14.97 minutes north latitude and 100 degrees, 49.09 minutes west longitude. She rolls her eyes and says, "You must be a Republican!"

"I am", replies the man, "How did you know?"

"Well, answers the balloonist, everything you tell me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to do with your information, and I'm still lost. Frankly, you're not much help to me."

"The man smiles and responds, "You must be a Democrat."

"I am,' replies the balloonist. "How did you know?"

"Well," says the man, "You don't know where you are or where you're going. You've risen to where you are, due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise that you have no idea how to keep, and now you expect me to solve your problem. You're in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but, somehow, now it's my fault."

Babies, Guns, & Beauty Pageants!



Whatever the reason that motivated John McCain to choose Sarah Palin as his V.P. is irrelevant because what it comes down to is that it doesn't matter. What does matter is that she's AWESOME and it was the perfect choice. This woman is a woman's woman AND a man's woman- who couldn't love her? She manages to have a wonderful family, amazing hobbies (hunting & gutting her own kills to boot!), an awesome husband backing her up (and apparently they still have sex...with each other as they just had a new addition to their family... unlike other presidential hopefuls and presidents (the very disgusting philandering Edwards, Clinton, and just about everyone else it seems), has won beauty pageants, scholarships, basketball tournaments- I could go on and on- she is fascinating! She started her current career in the PTA of all places! Alaska is so lucky, we're stuck with goofy Gov. Huntsman and his 10-hour workday's (did he get anyone's opinion before doing that?)! I found this blog through a friend of a relative and really enjoyed it regarding the new v.p. candidate - http://tickledpinkbaby.blogspot.com/ - you may too.

I'm so excited that she was the chioce for V.P. - let's kick Obama's butt outta the running! WHOO HOO!!!!
