Mess makers- shut your mouth

Mess makers- shut your mouth

When talking about "angry" Americans who are speaking out at Town Hall meetings, President Obama said:

"..I don’t want the folks who created this mess to do a lot of talking.."



Yes, Mister President...

The people who caused this mess SHOULD STOP TALKING.

They SHOULD shut their dam mouths.

(And they should READ the health care bill that they "might" sign.)





I agree with President Obama- 100%.

The people who caused this mess SHOULD STOP TALKING.

However, the American people DIDN’T cause this mess.

The American people did what they were suppose to do. They went to work, took care of their families, and paid their taxes.

The mess that we are in, (the banking crisis, job loss, health care mess, etc) was caused by the politicians.



Unlike Bill Maher*, I know that the American public is NOT stupid. We can follow a time-line on all of these problems and we can trace them all back to politicians.

Take the banking crisis, for example: It was the democrats who pushed for "looser" lending practices in home mortgages to help first time home buyers get the house of their dreams. (That they couldn’t afford.)

And we know that the republicans didn’t stop this practice, while republicans held the White House, the Senate, and the House for 6 years.

The Health Care Crisis...

(Just do a Google search on: "Ted Kennedy- HMO". Need I say anymore..??)

The current unemployment figures...

I wish I could say that it was only the democratic party who caused the mess that we are in today, but that would be dishonest. It was a team effort between democrats and republicans who delivered us into this "stink hole."

This current finger pointing by the White House and the democrats is making me want to puke because they are equally to blame.

Now these same politicians want us to trust them on a Bill that THEY DIDN’T EVEN READ..??



So, I agree with President Obama...

The people who caused this mess (the politicians) should shut their freaking mouths and listen to the American public.

Aaahh, that would also include you, President Obama.

After all, first and foremost, Barack Obama is a politician. He was in the Senate before becoming ruler of the United States.

Might I suggest that ALL politicians use their month long August vacation to READ THE DAM BILL before they sign it.

Might I also suggest that the people who caused this mess, (the politicians) shut their freaking mouths and LISTEN to the American voters at these Town Hall meetings.

(That would also include you, Mr. President.)

*- Bill Maher- host of HBO’s "Real Time" called America a "stupid country." (See my last post.)

Now, Bill Maher, (in clarifying his comments) claims that- "..America is like a college chick after two Long Island Iced Teas; America can be talked into anything, like wars, and America can be talked out of anything, like health care.."

So now Bill Maher feels the need to insult college girls..??



First you insult America by calling it a "stupid country." Then you claim that college women are "easy", after two drinks..??

I just do not understand the American left..??

Bill Maher reminds me of a sick dog that shows up in your back yard, tired and hungry. You feel sorry for this old dog, so you give it a bowl of food. The dog chows down the bowl of food and then bites you on the leg. Which causes you to kick this dog in the ass.

The next day, that sick dog shows up again, tired and hungry. For some reason, you feel bad for kicking that dog in the ass, and you give him another bowl of food. The sick dog eats the food and bites you on the leg again.

That is Bill Maher.

After the terrorist attack on NY City, Maher said that it took "courage" for the terrorists to fly planes into the World Trade Towers. Maher, (in referring to the US military) said it DOESN’T take courage to sit 200 miles away from the battle field and bomb a target.

After that statement, Bill Maher lost his job on the ABC Network and was unemployed. (Like the sick dog that we fed, only to get bitten in the leg.)

However, for some reason, people felt sorry for Bill Maher and they gave him another chance. (HBO- "Real Time.")

And, just like the sick dog, Bill Maher BITES these people on the leg AGAIN, by calling them "stupid." Maher went on to say that politicians "shouldn’t listen to (Americans) at these Town Hall meetings because (Americans) do not know what they are talking about." Bill said that instead of Town Hall meetings, we should have "study hall" meetings.



You know, I like having Bill Maher around. Because with Maher in the public’s eye, I do not have to "build a strawman" when talking about liberals; I can just point to things Maher has said and done. Bill Maher helps prove my point that liberalism is mean, elitist, and just plain wrong for America.

Say what you want about Rush Limbaugh, but I have never heard Limbaugh call America "stupid." In fact, Rush pushes you to be your best.

Thanks for reading The Angry Republic

America- You stupid country

Have you ever felt the need to call America: "A stupid country"..??

Well, when I saw 52% of American voters pick a president who had never run a state, or a business of any kind, or spent any time (longer than 148 days in the Senate), it was tempting to call them "stupid" for voting for Barack Obama.

But I didn’t.

I didn’t call Obama supporters "stupid" because we have all been tricked by a "fancy car salesman" who promised the moon, but sold us a lemon.

Even smart people can be tricked.



America- you stupid country.



Yes, in this editorial, am referring to Bill Maher’s comment on CNN’s Wolf Blitzer’s show. (Which you can view the video clip below.)



However, I am talking about a larger view that Liberal Democrats have about America.



Liberals "say" that they LOVE this country. However, it is easy to find many examples of how liberals actually do "hate" America. Bill Maher’s slip up on CNN is a great example. Bill actually says that America is a "stupid country."



Ask a liberal: "Do you love America."

And the liberal will reply:

"...Yes, I love this country. That is why I bitch, piss, and complain about America. I love America SO MUCH that I want to CHANGE America into something else..."

Would that line of thinking work for something else..?? Let’s say, a spouse..??

Do you LOVE your wife..??

"...Oh, yes. I LOVE my wife. That is why I complain and talk bad about my wife in public. I love my wife SO MUCH that I want to CHANGE her so that she acts like someone else..."

This logic...

This way of thinking; only works when liberals describe their "love of country."



Sometimes, a liberal will point to the founding fathers and claim that Jefferson, Adams, and Washington were "revolutionaries." These rebels fought against the British because they loved this country so much, and wanted to make it better. The modern liberal will compare themselves to the founding fathers, and claim they are doing the same thing.

They are, of course, very wrong.



The founding fathers NEVER said that they "loved" the colonies, as they were being run by the British.

They hated it.

In fact, they would tell anyone who would listen, that they despised the way the colonies were being run by the British. The founding fathers wanted to tear down the whole system, and start a new.

This is where the liberal mind set is dishonest.

It is based on a lie.

You cannot "love your country" if you want to dismantle it and start over.

You actually "hate" your country. You want something else.



This explains why liberalism fails.

Because it is based on a lie; and most people figure it out, (sometimes too late, but I think that we, ‘the American people’, caught it in time, this time.)

So, now the liberal is forced to defend the idea of "dismantling America."

The liberal says: "..I do NOT want to dismantle America, I love this country. I want to make it better.."

You reply: "You want to rip apart the American health system, correct..??"

"..Yes, it is broken. Don’t you think sick people should get medical help..??" The liberal explains.

You inform the liberal that it is against the law for a hospital to reject a sick patient without treatment. EVERY AMERICAN HAS ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE.

"..Yea, but, without insurance, one illness could wipe out a family savings.." the liberal claims.

You inform the liberal that if that same American loses their job, it could also wipe out their savings. If they gamble on the wrong horse, or walk down the wrong street in Compton California, they could lose everything. How far do you want to go in protecting people "from life..?? From living..??"

"..But, but, you hate sick people.." is the reply of the liberal.

No, I want to STOP a half-assed program, that is being RUSHED into law, from taking effect. You cannot plan national health care in a couple of weeks and expect it to work correctly.

Ask the liberal if they want to change the way Americans live, drive their cars, and the food that we eat..??

"Yes", the liberal answers. "..We need to save the earth. People cannot live in BIG houses and drive BIG cars. It is killing the bunnies and the frogs. BIG cars are making it rain in the North East, and BIG houses are making it hot in the desert. People need to eat better because they are fat and costing tons of money.."

Ask the liberal if they prefer the capitalistic system, or would they like a more socialized system, where the money is spread around (by a government worker and high taxation.) You already know the answer that the liberal will give to that question.

OK- If you want to change the way that Americans live...

If you want to dictate what we can eat, who gets treated when they are sick...

And you want to change the entire economic structure of America...

Then you want to dismantle America, and replace it with your elite, utopian dream.

Therefore, you cannot "love" your country.

This is what stops liberalism in its tracks.

That FIRST little lie.

"..I LOVE America, (but) I want to change everything about it..."

A contradiction shared by millions of liberal Americans.

A lie.



Is Bill Maher correct..??

Is America a "stupid country."

Not in the least. No country that started from scratch (just 233 years ago), who survived a Civil War, helped win several World Wars, put a man on the moon, survives racial tensions, and helped launch some of the greatest technical advances the world has ever seen; America could not be manned by "stupid people."

However, from time to time, smart people can be fooled by a "slick car salesman" who promises "hope and change", but delivers a lemon; a health plan that is so bad that his own political party has trouble voting for it.

Bill Maher, and the rest of the liberal elitists...

Don’t feel so bad..!!

You are not stupid.

You are just misguided.

A fellow (Barack Obama) told you that he could add 47 million people on "national" health insurance, and it wouldn’t cost you any more money, and you would have a BETTER system, AND YOU BELIEVED HIM..??



Don’t feel bad, Bill Maher.

I once bought a Beta Video Tape deck because the salesman said it had better video and audio. The Beta deck now sits in storage. It still works, but you cannot find tapes for it.

(Hey, he was a GOOD salesman.)

We all get fooled from time to time.

"...Ask a conservative about global warming and they will point to the North Eastern United States (which is having one of the coldest summers on record.) How can it be "cooler" during global warming..??

But, they are JUST conservatives.

What the hell do they know..??

Scientists will tell you that the North East is experiencing a "special" weather pattern. The North East is actually getting warmer, scientists say (64 degrees today- the normal for today is usually 82..??) It is just that a "super- special" weather pattern is making it cooler in the North East.

HOWEVER...

Scientists will point out that Arizona, (located "smack- dab" in the desert) which is seeing 114 degrees today, IS PROOF OF GLOBAL WARMING.

Arizona IS NOT experiencing a "special" weather pattern. Arizona is PROOF of global warming.

The Arctic is also PROOF of global warming.

Forget the fact that the Arctic packed on about as much ice as it usually does each winter. The Arctic is experiencing a "different" melting pattern, this summer.

Scientists will tell you that this is NOT a "super special" weather pattern. The Arctic is proof of global warming.

So...

If a place on earth appears warmer, it is proof of global warming.

However, if a place on earth is cooler, it is a "super special" weather pattern.

I believe I understand it all now.

(And to be honest, if my paycheck depended on government grants...

If I were a scientist who was charged with studying global warming...

I would probably tell you the same thing.)

Besides, it is better to be safe than sorry..!!"

RIGHT..??

But, what is the COST of being "safe"..??

What if YOU are wrong..??



When I think of a leader...

I envision a person who guides us through a difficult time. Maybe it is some kind of war, or a tough economic environment.

(Which, by the way, we are experiencing both today.)

When I think about a person that will tell me if my house windows leak air, or if my car burns to much gas, or if I am eating right, if I am getting enough exercise...



That is NOT a President.

That is a Mother.

President Barack Obama- "Mommy Dearest."



In my last post, I was stunned to find out that President Obama and his democratic congress wanted to check out your house and make sure it was "green" before you can sell it.

If you want to buy a house, the government will tell you which house you can buy. Forget location. Forget about your budget.

The house MUST be "green."

(Green- IE- Fuel efficient furnace, hot water heater, weather proof windows, doors, government approved insulation, hot water lines insulated from heat loss, etc.)



This reminds me of a story...

One of the saddest tales I can think of is a local Heating and Air conditioning installer who DIED from his own water heater.

(I am going to leave his name out of this story) however, his story is important.

Being in the business, this Heating repairman knew that if he added MORE insulation to his house, he could save money in heating and cooling costs.

He went overboard.

His house was so "air tight" that it killed him.

What the Obama administration forgets is that most every house in America contains radon gas.

Radon is a gas that is created naturally in the earth, and can get trapped in your "air tight" house.

Mold can also build up in your house if you do not remove the molded materials.

Without enough fresh air, your gas water heater WILL leak carbon monoxide into your house. (Which is what killed this contractor that I spoke of.) An air tight house traps this gas.

The average middle class American doesn’t have the money to "green" up their homes. Then provide proper "radon" protection. And, provide some form of "fresh air" vent or intake, etc.

Sure, the government will come around and see if your house is "green". And they will tax (fine) you if it isn’t. But will the government come back and check your radon levels? Your CO2 levels?

Will the government check to see if you are safe..??

How many times will the government show up at your doorstep and demand to check your house..??



I, being a freedom loving America, assumed that most Americans were like minded. I figured that most Americans would be outraged at this government intrusion.

After all, it is us middle class people who were already turning our furnaces down, we didn’t run our A/C units as much, and we drove our cars less; to save money.

Why would these laws target the middle class..??

But, they do.

So, this week...

From the mouth of President Obama...

This MUST bring all of the freedom loving Americans together.

President Obama said that "incentives MUST be given to employers who make sure that their employees are EATING RIGHT, getting enough exercise, if they are smoking, or involved in unsafe activities.."

As part of the Obama health care program:

Employers should make sure that their employees are eating right and NOT eating junk.

Your boss should make sure that you exercise.

And your boss should find out if you are smoking (cigarettes or weed) at home.



This "Obama government" wants to rule your house. You might as well send Obama a copy of your front door key.

This proposal from Obama and the democrats should get the attention of even the far left liberals. (IE- the weed smoking at home. BIG Obama no, no. One joint has almost same amount of carcinogenic as a cigarette. Very bad for your health.)

I can almost feel Barack Obama peeking into my house, right now. Checking out my water heater. Seeing if I did some "sit-ups" today. Can you picture Obama lifting the lid of a pot on the stove, checking to see what you have planned for dinner..??



Americans MUST be joined against this.

Liberal and conservative.



The liberal hippies of the sixties were all for personal freedom.



Today, those same liberal hippies want the government to inspect their water heaters and their refrigerators. "What kind of food do you have in their, Mister Hippie..??"

We must unite and stop these democratic bills.

People MUST be made aware of what was in those bills. (The bills that their senators passed, but didn’t read.)

Maybe I am wrong.

Maybe people do not care much for freedom.

Maybe Americans want to be told what to eat, where to live, when to exercise, how warm to have their house, and when they can take a vacation with their car.



Maybe I am wrong about Americans.

As I always say:

If you can’t beat them, (don’t join them) but find a way to make money off of them.

(Remember, I am a capitalist.)

I have created a NEW company, called: "Obam-a-Co."

We build and sell a product called: "Narc-o-matic."

See, it will be impossible for your boss to tell if you are exercising at home, (as President Obama demands.) Unless your boss actually shows up at your home and watches you exercise, this Obama wish is impossible.

NOT ANYMORE..!!

Not with my new Obam-a-Co "Narc-o-matic" system.

Narc-o-matic is connected to your treadmill, your exercise bike, and your refrigerator. If you DO NOT exercise, Narc-o-matic automatically calls your boss, (and President Obama) and tells them that you are just sitting on the couch. A third call also goes out to a local government worker who can "peek" into your windows and verify that you are not exercising.

And just try and stick a cheesecake in your refrigerator... (I dare you..!!)

"Narc-o-matic" not only calls your boss, (and President Obama), but "Narc-o-matic" also calls local police who can rush to your house and confiscate the "said" cheesecake.

Once the "offending" cheesecake is safely removed from your home, a "sweet team" of government workers will console you on the evils of cheesecake. "Just one cheesecake will bankrupt the national medical care system, you will get fat, and be a burden on all of us."

Narc-o-matic is a Trademark of "Obam-a-Co Enterprises."

I plan on making a trillion dollars off of "Narc-o-matic", considering every home will need one.

However...

Just in case this idea doesn’t pan out and you Americans wise up and push for freedom, I have another idea...

The: "Sticker Picker."

With my new "Sticker Picker" device, you are able to remove those "Obama for President" bumper stickers from your car.



(And then you can pretend that you didn’t vote for all of this loss of freedom.)

Today, we still fight for freedom

President Obama said he didn't see any controversy in the fact that he did not issue a formal public statement upon Jackson's death, and said he was unaware of any dissatisfaction in the black community with Obama’s very late response.



President Obama said:

"I know a lot of people in the black community," Obama said. "I haven't heard that."

Well, Mr. President...

I know a lot of people in the Black Community, too. I grew up with many Black friends. Should I get some kind of badge..??

Matter of fact, I know quite a few people in the White community. What the hell does that have to do WITH ANYTHING..??

A comment from a reader comes in:

MARGE1893

I voted for change (Obama); however I did not vote for this. I fell under his spell, but the spell is broken. I think our president would rather be a movie star than president. I can not wait until 2012.

Marge...

Neither can we..!!

(The worm is starting to turn.)



"...Those who do not learn from history, are doomed to repeat it..."

"...Those who DO STUDY history, are doomed to KNOW that history is repeating itself. (Because of the idiots we have running the country, who didn’t learn from history.)..."

Today, we have a lot of people who will learn a very valuable lesson.



I believe that last year was the first year that I made the point that: "On this day, back in 1776, our founding father declared ‘Independence’ from Britain.

However, declaring independence and winning independence are two different things."

Winning independence came MUCH later than July, 4^th, 1776.

50 percent of the American population, at the time, were terrified at the prospects of fighting a war with the British.

They didn’t want to do it.

Today, we face a similar problem. (Thankfully, without the gun and canon fire.)

Today, 50 percent of the American population seem willing to sit back and watch freedom slip away.

Here is what REALLY pisses me off:

People who were so vocal about President Bush’s wiretapping laws and how they felt it was unconstitutional.

These very same people have no problem with the "invasion of personal privacy" for global warming laws by President Obama.

President Bush invaded our phone lines to stop terrorists.

President Obama will invade your home and car to stop global warming.



There is NO difference between the two.

If you were upset about one presidents invasion of constitutional privacy, then you must be upset about the other.

If you believe that Bush was wrong, but Obama is right, then you are using our liberty and the constitution like masturbation. (For your own self- gratification.)

Why would 50 percent of the population allow freedom to be expelled..??



Because they do not understand what freedom they will be losing.

In the middle of the night, 300 NEW pages were added to the "Cap and Trade Bill" that the House passed this week.

No member of congress had an opportunity to study ALL of this Bill. The House PASSED this Bill without reading it.

(Which seems to be the norm for this Democratic Congress.)



Freedoms that you are losing:

If you want to buy or sell a home, it MUST be "green." (Environmentally friendly.)

If you are very, very rich, this will not effect you because you can afford to "green up" your home.



If you are one of Obama’s poor, we tax payers will be paying for your "green- house."

However, the middle class, who isn’t wealthy, will be killed by this bill.

What if you lose your job, but you find a new job in another city; you cannot sell your old home until you pay to "green it up." You will spend tens of thousands of dollars to add insulation, a high efficient furnace and water heater. Double pane windows, etc.

(But Obama will give you a $1,500 tax credit, which might buy the furnace.)

The 1,500 page "Cap and Trade Bill", (which no member of congress read) will increase the cost of gas and electricity.

Because no American oil refinery has been built in America in 30 years, they will most likely NOT reach Obama’s "green" standards. Instead of building new refineries, (which will cost billions) Gas stations will raise the price of gas and pass the cost on to you.

The same is true with electricity.

This will not effect Obama and his family. They are far more richer than George Bush, Dick Cheney, or any of us. The super rich, like Obama, will just pay the high cost of fuel.



Obama’s poor will also not be effected by this "cap and trade" bill because we tax payers are already paying for their electricity and natural gas bills.

It is the middle class that will suffer from this bill.

The middle class:

Who were already cutting costs, by lowering their furnace, turning down their water heater, and driving their car less.

Republicans claim that the average family will see an increase of $2,000 per year from "Cap and Trade."

Democrats say: "Nawww, you might see a $300 dollar increase, trust us.."

Guess what, I do not "trust" the democrats.

Barack Obama said that there would be "no new taxes for people making $250,000 per year", and that was a lie. (IE- cigarette taxes, cap and trade taxes, etc.)



Why would so many people sit back and allow this to happen..??

Maybe you are a liberal who rents an apartment and you think that this will not effect you..??

You are wrong.

I own a couple of apartments.

In the city that these apartments are located, they are already taking about mandatory "safety and green" inspections for landlords. (But not for owner- occupants.)

OK, let’s forget the "unconstitutionality" of inspecting one group of people’s homes (landlords) but NOT inspecting the other group (owner- occupants) but if I have to spend thousands to "green up" my rental properties, I will double the rent.

This is not a guess.

I am not a politician who is telling you what you want to hear.

I am telling you a fact. The truth.

I, and millions of other landlords, will double your rent.

If the city, the state, and Obama’s federal government force me: the landlord, and you: the tenant, to green up the property; the government will force you to leave while the property is under construction. I will spend thousands in improvements. When you return from your motel stay, your rent will double.

If you paid $1,000 per month plus utilities, I will now charge you $2,000 plus utilities.

There is nothing that we can do about it, the feds are in control, now. They will say what constitutes "green."

Ask yourself: "Is this what you voted for..??"

What was wrong with we Americans trying to conserve fuel on our own..??

Why do we need the Nazi "jack boot" laws to force you to conserve..??

Can’t you do that on your own..??

Do you need a freaking law to save the earth..??

Couldn’t you force, with guilt, your liberal Hollywood buddies and Al Gore to STOP wasting fuel on private jets, owning 5 homes, and driving BIG vehicles..??

Why do we needs laws for this..??

Laws that hurt the middle class.

On this 4^th of July, we find ourselves in another battle for freedom.

Our founding father won us this freedom with their blood and their lives.

We must fight to hold on to this freedom.

To my conservative friends...

In the next few months, you will begin to see many democrats crossing over. Their eyes will be open and they will have awakened, they will realize that America is heading down a path that was already tried in Europe and failed.

We must welcome these liberals.

There is no time for "I told you so."

To beat (and replace) Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, and Barack Obama; we will need everyone.



And that includes all the democrats who are now beginning to see.

Michael Jackson- The original Benjamin Button

Michael Jackson- The original Benjamin Button





"...The other brothers were laughing and goofing off, chasing young girls. But little Michael would sit for hours and study tapes of James Brown and Wilson Picket. He was like an old man trapped in a boy’s body..."

Rare video of Wilson Picket: "Mustang Sally"





I have not yet watched the movie: "The curious case of Benjamin Button", but if I understand the premise; Brad Pitt’s character starts out as an old man and ages backward, until he dies of old age: as a baby.

This is the best way that I can explain: Michael Jackson.

As a teenage boy, Michael spent his time doing things and taking on more responsibility than most adults carry in their lifetime.

Yet, as a forty year old man; Michael was living in an amusement park, surrounded by animals and children. Spending his days playing children’s games.

Michael Jackson aged backwards.



A few years back, (when Michael Jackson was having his "legal" problems), I made a sad prediction...

I said: "..Michael Jackson will end up like Elvis Presley. Jackson will die young from a drug overdose or die secluded like Howard Hughs..."

(My last such prediction was in a post on this web site, called: "Bailout Fever- (bail baby bail)." It is the second story in that post and I wrote the following:

"...Maybe what Michael Jackson needs right now is religion? (Any religion.) I have always worried that Jackson was heading for self- destruction, and possible suicide. Religion could possible straighten Jackson out? (No pun intended.).."

Link:


http://www.blogster.com/angryrepublican/bailout-fever-bail-baby-bail-221108112044

Has there ever been a sadder story than Michael Jackson..??

(With the exception of all of the other famous people who die "way too young" from drugs and depression.)

I am hopeful that the Jackson family do NOT try and hide the conditions surrounding Michael’s death. There are many lessons to be learned.

The one lesson that I need to learn from the MJ story is that money (and fame) do not solve all of your problems and make you happy.

No one can say that Michael Jackson was "happy." At one time, Jackson had plenty of money and no one was more famous.

I constantly fight the feeling that if I just had more money, I could buy "more stuff" and I would be "more happy" with all of this new stuff.

But once I obtain this "stuff", (new car, swimming pool, motorcycle, new fancy phone, etc) the happiness is short lived and it becomes another thing to care for, fix, and sink money into.

The second lesson, (which I learned many years ago) is that drugs do not make you happy. They cause you to be more depressed.

I thought about talking about Michael Jackson’s career. How great he was and how far he fell...

But I am not going to do that.

(Besides, TV and the Internet are doing a great job of reviewing MJ’s career.)

I just wanted to point out a couple of points that I had noticed in his life.

Having been a Disc Jockey during my 20's and 30's, I had a bird’s eye view of Michael Jackson’s career.

No one can deny that MJ had talent.



For me, Michael’s downfall started around the release of the "Bad" album.



This is when MJ started grabbing his crotch, spitting on the ground, and chasing women. (As opposed to having women chase him.)

It was as if some producer told Michael that people didn’t think that he was "manly enough."

So Michael started singing songs about how "Bad" he was, or how "Dangerous" he is. Guys grab their crotches, right..!!

So naturally the "manly Michael Jackson" started to spit, grab is "stuff" and bust car windows out with a club.

That’s what men do, right..??

But this wasn’t Michael Jackson.

That is when he started wearing a mask.

Michael never let us see behind that mask that he wore, ever again.

What a shame.

If I had to pick the Michael Jackson video that means the most to me, right now; I would pick- "Scream."

Thriller was good, (but being a night club disc jockey, I had to play that video 2 times a night, every night, for freaking ever.) Billy Jean was good, Smooth Criminal was great, Black and White was a come back. Jackson had so many great videos.



"Scream" is the one video that means the most to me, now that Michael is gone.

I wanted to embed the video here, but the Jackson Family have the Embed function off, so I will leave a link to it.

LINK to "Scream"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNl2Pm9-7Vk

"Scream" features Michael and Janet Jackson together. It is the MOST expensive video ever made (7 million dollars.)

"Scream" is filmed in black and white. It is shot on a spaceship. Both Michael and Janet have fancy games and toys that you would only find in a science fiction movie. From art that magically transforms into something else, to games that allow you to bust up vases, to dancing on the ceiling.

The Jackson’s have all this stuff...

And yet they seem bored to tears.

They seem lonely and lost. Just trying to fill their time.

In this "spaceship", isolated from the rest of the world; the Jackson’s are singing about all the "pressure" in their life.

So much pressure that it makes them want to "Scream."

That is the way I view Michael Jackson. A boy that was "cut off from the rest of the world", who had more money than he knew what to do with it; who had more talent then many, who died lonely and poor.

One would hope that the Michael Jackson story would teach future generations that you can make it if you try, and that drugs and depression can kill.

In one of Michael Jackson’s songs (Black or White), one lyric states that MJ is not: "going to spend his life being a ‘color."

He didn’t..!!

Michael Jackson transcended race, color, gender, and just about everything else.

Everything is fixed

It was about this time last year, that we were all blogging like crazy.

We had a mission...



Our mission:

To keep those bastards: The ________ Party out of the White House. (You can insert the political party in which you currently hate right now, into the BLANK space I have provided.)

I too, was busy like a bee. Building a demented beehive where we MUST destroy the “other guys.”

Today, things have all changed. We can relax.

The Democrats are fixing all of the messes that the Republicans left behind.

Sure, Barney Frank is pissed off at President Obama’s current wording in a bill concerning marriage.

(But hey, when ISN’T Barney Frank pissed off..??)

And Bill Maher isn’t too happy with President Obama either. Bill wishes that Obama was MORE like President Bush. (Aaahh, that would be the GOOD side of Bush. Not that EVIL side of Bush that we conservatives seemed to like.)

But all and all, things are running smooth.

Iran is on the verge of revolution.

North Korea is firing off a missile almost every day and are promising to marry their missile with a nuclear warhead.

The economy is fixed up real good. (NOTE) The masses of unemployed people should look into becoming Gay and hooking up with a Gay government worker, so they can utilize President Obama’s new benefits for Gay Associate Government Active Workers. (Or: G.A. G.A.W., as they like to be called.)

With the Democrats and President Obama fixing all of this stuff, it has left me with more time to reflect on my own life. Today, I ponder BIGGER questions.
Much bigger questions than politics.

Questions like:

Why is it so freaking cold in June, in Pennsylvania..??

Come on...

I still have a redneck suntan in June.

(Note) No offence to any rednecks reading this. (Like rednecks can read.)

(Also note) A redneck tan is when only your arms and face are tan, BECAUSE IT HAS BEEN TOO FREAKING COLD TO GET A TAN ELSEWHERE.

Then it dawns on me...

The Democrats have fixed global warming too.

Barack Obama has only been in the White House for 6 months, and somehow he managed to fix global warming..??

(If you asked me, he fixed it TOO GOOD.) I wouldn’t mind a little sunshine, now and then.



With Global Warming fixed, Al Gore is now free to invest in a new car company, instead of spending all his time saving you, from yourself.

Would that be an electric car company that Al Gore is investing in..??

No.

Would that be some kind of fuel cell or hybrid car..??

No.

Al Gore is sinking tons of cash in a car company that makes gasoline powered cars.

To Gore’s credit, this car (which has no name or any details at this point) is said to get 65 mpg.

A small metal box with wheels, doors, and a motorcycle motor.

A car that could fit into the back of my truck.

Which leads me to another question I have been pondering...

“What will be the classic cars of the future..??”

It cannot be these little tin boxes that the current government has planned for you and I.



I was thinking of this while watching Clint Eastwood’s movie “Gran Torino.”

Who would ever take one of these egg shaped boxes on wheels and call them “classic”..??

Try and tell Americans that they can’t have something..??

Tell Gay Americans that they cannot get married...

Tell Black Americans that they cannot become president...

Tell inventive Americans that they have to drive these little metal boxes...

Not going to happen..!!

Just like in the 1950's and 60's; I can see guys raiding junk yards and building “hot rods.”

They will take an old frame from here; mount a rebuilt Ford 350 “gas guzzling” motor on it, and place fiberglass replica bodies on top.

I can imagine some really wild rides buzzing by all these little metal “eggs on wheels” that Obama wants us to drive.

But I digress; that is the future.

Today...

I no longer have to worry about little things like America, the economy, polar bears, and War.

The democrats have fixed this stuff.

Today, I can continplate the big issues, like:

Was David Letterman really sincere in his apology..??

(That would be the second apology, not the first apology that was more of a joke about the joke that he wanted to apologize about...)
