Didn't we learn anything from Sesame Street?

Don't you remember?

You know, you were 5 years old, watching Sesame Street and that familiar song would come on....

"One of these things is not like the others....one of these things just doesn't belong...."

It was supposed to teach us to look at several things and identify one thing that was different than all the other things surrounding it.


It seems that we (America) haven't learned our lessons from Big Bird yet.

Let's take a look at a few pictures.




I know it may be hard for some of you to single out what isn't alike. I'll give you a hint....SHE isn't in the top 3 rows and SHE isn't in the left four columns.....

Go ahead...take a minute.


Good. I am glad that you were able to locate which one of these people is 'not like the other'.


In case you have been under a rock for the past 9 years, the Muslim looking men in the photo above are the hijackers from the 9/11/01 flights. The middle aged white woman is just a picture I found on the internet to make my point. I hope I don't get in trouble for using her picture. I'm just trying to teach America how to identify the person that is 'not like the other'.

Why you might ask?


Let's think about a couple of the attempted terror attacks since 9/11/01.


We had the shoe bomber.....
And we had the underwear bomber......




Are you seeing a pattern here?


Now, before you say anything about the underwear bomber....I know. He looks like any number of young Black Men who were on the last flight I took from Phoenix to Houston. That plane made it okay.

However, there is one thing other than his appearance that makes him 'not like the others'.

His name.

Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab.


America, we need to start profiling.

If you look like any one of the above terrorists and/or your name includes any of the following:

Ala
Al
Abdul
Mohammed
Barack
Hussein
Obama
Osama
Hakim
Hakeem
Kareem
Achmed

or any other number of Muslim names (Google Search for your very own comprehensive list of names we should target) I am sorry, but YOU NEED TO BE PROFILED!

Think this is unfair?

Think that we shouldn't subject these people to enhanced pat downs while letting Grandma and Grandpa pass through security?

Okay. We won't profile them. We won't subject them to enhanced pat downs and body scans.

What we'll do is we'll give them their own airline. We can call it "Death Express"


We'll save you a seat.



I'm probably wrong.

You decide.

54 days.

54 days people. That's how long we have before we elect the Government for our Great Nation.

Let's take a look at a few things that are not being talked about, because we're too busy talking about burning the Koran, or we're too busy talking about how much of a little slut Paris Hilton is.


Our Nation is the greatest nation on earth. Yet we have some serious issues facing us, that our government doesn't seem to be worried about.


Unemployment is at a 30 year high.
Home prices are lower than they have been in years.
Illegal Immigration is threatening our national security.
Our debt has had more added to it in the last 2 years than was racked up from 1789 through 1988.


Unemployment has not been at 10% since 1982 and 1983. (http://www.miseryindex.us/urbymonth.asp)

Home prices are lower than they have been since 2000-2001. (http://mysite.verizon.net/vzeqrguz/housingbubble/)

Illegal immigration is threatening our national security. We have Mexican drug cartels in control of large areas of Arizona. (http://www.abc15.com/dpp/news/region_central_southern_az/other/mexican-drug-cartels-now-control-parts-of-arizona)

We can't take time to talk with the Governor of Arizona, or the Governor of Texas to discuss border security, but we have time to possibly talk with some ass clown in Florida who wants to hold a Koran burning. (Although it IS his Constitutional right to do so, all I am saying is where are our priorities?)


Our debt has had more added to it in the last 2 years than was accumulated by all Presidents from George Washington through Ronald Reagan combined. (http://cnsnews.com/news/article/72404)


This is not to blame any political party. I definitely lean right. I won't hide that. But this is all bigger than Blue vs. Red. This is our Nation. Our way of life. Our existence at stake.


All of our politicians, whether red or blue, jackass or elephant are wrong. They are ALL wrong and they are all working towards the same goal: redistribution of wealth and the fundamental change of our Country.

Our Founding Fathers put our system of Government in place to try to protect us from what is happening. Yet, we continuously see our elected change things as they go in order to obtain what they want.

What THEY want. Not what WE want. (Ie: health care reform. The majority of Citizens in our Country did not agree with health care reform in the way it was passed. This isn't to say we do not need some kind of health care reform, but it was not done properly..... Don't believe it? Just wait. Someday you will).



From those with means to those with needs. That is the secret mantra of politicians on both sides of the isle. That's what they want.

Can't win an election based on what you stand for?

Buy the election. Take from those with means....and give to those with needs.


54 days.

We get to make a "Change WE can believe in".

Make sure you vote. If you don't like how things are going, take a good hard look at your Senator(s) and Congressmen(women) and kick them out of office if they aren't doing what you believe in.

It's your Right. Many good men have died to give us and protect our Right to vote. Our Right to choose our Government.

Go to the polls. Listen to your heart and vote.

I plan on voting against my incumbent representatives. Because quite honestly, they have all failed us and it IS time for "change" we can believe in.


I'm probably wrong......you decide.

Obama raises debt limit to over 14 trillion behind closed doors.

According to ABC News.com, President Obama on Friday signed in to law the bill raising the public debt limit from $12.394 Trillion to $14.294 Trillion.

That means that every citizen in the U.S. now owes (on behalf of the U.S. Government) $40,000 and every Tax payer owes $113,000.


When will you be able to cover your share?


I have one thing to say to these 'Crazies' we have in Washington.

STOP!

When are we as a Country going to come to the realization that we can't afford all of the entitlement programs that are contributing to the bankruptcy of our Country?

When are we as taxpayers going to come to the realization that we are tired of lining the pockets of the people we elect in to office?

When are we as a Country going to start taking care of our own problems, instead of trying to be the world savior?

When are we going to send a message to those who are running up this debt for us by voting them all out of office?


It is really a shame. America was once a Country of people who were willing and able to WORK for what they wanted and needed.

But now it seems that more and more Americans feel that they are 'owed' something.

They feel that the Gub'ment OWES them. Yet, they have NO IDEA where the money comes from!

"I can afford my gold rolex watch. I can afford gold caps on my teeth. I can afford to put $3000 worth of tires and wheels on my 1983 Chevy Caprice rust bucket. But I can't afford health insurance. So the rest of you OWE it to me."


"I can afford my beer and cigarettes. But I can't afford to put food on the table for my 16 kids. So the rest of you OWE it to me" (They couldn't afford rubbers either)


I am sorry.

But No. No I don't owe it to you.

You owe it to yourself to be proud of who you are. You owe it to yourself to work for what you need.

You owe it to yourself to be smart enough to know what is right.....and what is not.


Now, if we could only get our politicians to act with a little self respect. A little dignity.

A little fiscal responsibility for the rest of us.


Until then.....in the time you've taken to read this post, your share has grown from $113,000 to $113,250


And it keeps growing. Check it out.

When you're ready to cut the check for your share. I suppose you just send it to the IRS. Maybe your Congressman if you trust him.

It's time to "Camelboy up"

To continue to think that we have to be “politically correct” will be the death of the United States of America.

In today’s day and age of overly sensitive sissy’s who seem to cry about anything that is said or implied about them, we need to come to the realization that “profiling” is a necessary tool that is to be used in the fight against those who seek us harm.

The last time I flew on a domestic flight (which by the way is the only type of flight I’ve ever flown) I was standing in line to take my shoes off. I was looking at the people surrounding me.

Grandma’s, new mothers, children, businessmen of all sorts, and a couple of Middle Eastern Looking men all waiting to be screened.

It struck me funny to see that Grandma got pulled to the side to undergo the ‘thorough’ inspection, while the businessmen and Middle Easterners were sent through the ‘regular’ line.

Let’s take a look at the last few terrorist attacks or attempts on America and let’s look at the people who were the perpetrators.

Do they look like Grandma?
Do they look like Businessmen traveling from Houston to Denver?

No. They look like Middle Eastern men. This is probably because….well…..they ARE Middle Eastern men.

Am I the only one that sees this as ironic?

People, we need to ‘Cowboy Up’ and take things with a grain of salt. If you look like a duck, walk like a duck and quack like a duck, you need to be pulled aside and screened much more thoroughly than Grandma is being screened.

I say that we introduce legislation (since we seem to need to do that for any and every reason these days) that mandates that separate lines and screening areas be set up.

You go through the first set of screening, and if you’re Grandma, you go to the right.
If you look like a Middle Easterner or if your name contains “Abdul” (sorry Paula) “Hussein” or “Barack” you go to the left.

Oh, yes, and if you’re trying to board an international flight without a passport, you automatically go to the ‘enhanced interrogation’ room set up in the back.

I am sorry if this hurts your feelings or makes you feel uncomfortable because you are being singled out when Grandma is not.

Maybe someday, when people who look like you, talk like you, have names like you stop trying to kill us we can then go back to a more ‘politically correct’ way of screening you before you take your flight.

Until then. “Cowboy up”.

Or should I say “Camelboy up”?

Pump 'em up, or pull 'em out.

What the hell is the Obama Administration doing?

Either pump up the Troops in Afghanistan so that they can do the job we sent them there to do, or pull them out, bring them home and PROTECT OUR OWN BORDERS!

I am so thoroughly pissed that the Prez is playing a game with the lives of our soldiers.

"This country is going to shit"
"I don't even know why we're here anymore"
"There is no discernible reward for the sacrifices we're making"

These are quotes from the troops on the ground in Afghanistan.

What the hell?

Stop playing games with the lives of Mother's sons and daughters and get it together.

Give them what they need, or bring them home.


I know I'm not wrong, so if you disagree.....get bent!

America can't be the World's Savior!

So many things going through my mind that this post is going to take some time....

Will post this weekend.

We need an express lane to Death for violent criminals.

This weeks headlines include two disturbing stories.

First is a story of a teenage boy, raping and killing an 8 MONTH OLD BOY.
SEE STORY HERE

Second is a story of a woman, killing her friend, and slicing her stomach open to steal her baby and pass it off as her own.
SEE STORY HERE

Okay people. It appears that there are two cases here that can be proven quite easily.

DNA will surely show that the accused teen did in fact rape and (as a result of, probably) kill the infant/toddler.


The boyfriend of the woman accused of killing her friend is cooperating. When paramedics arrived to try to help with a non-responsive baby, she passed the baby off as hers. They took her and baby to hospital, and found that baby could not be saved, and found that....oh yeah....you sure look good for having just given birth! (Found that she had not given birth at all.)

The body of the woman who the baby belonged to was later found in the Wacko's CRAWL SPACE!


Seriously. If there ever were two cases, where the accused were simply and absolutely of NO benefit to humanity, these would be the cases.

I say that once found guilty, we march their asses out back and put a bullet in their head.

Maybe we should televise it and make everyone watch it.


You kill someone.....we kill you back. And none of this 20 years on death row crap either.



Ron White has it right.


I am probably wrong.
