09.08.09Can’t We All Get Along?The past weekend I worked, and like usual we listened to talk radio at work. I would rather listen to talk radio than music actually. The downside is that most talk radio is right-wing conservative talk, but some of them aren’t too bad, but a lot of them get under my skin. Why do so many of them have to spread fear and lies? The Glenn Beck’s of the world aren’t doing our country any good. Why not use your voice to educate your audience? I guess it’s more about ratings though. Tell ...

01.22.09Crazies Can Be EntertainingIt is finally sinking in that we have finally gotten a President that I like. For the first time the guy I voted for won. On is first day in office he is already making some good changes. He froze the pay of White House employees making over $100,000. Treating the White House just like any other company trying to survive the recession. He also vowed to increase openness and improve ethics in Washington. The big thing he did was order Guantanamo Bay to close within a year. We usually listen to talk radio ...

01.21.09Historic InaugurationSo this morning (I guess is was yesterday now) before I went to work I was able to catch the inauguration. I watched it on one computer and followed Twitter on another. It was a historic day. It sure makes you love our country the way we can have peaceful change of power like that. It was also amazing seeing how happy most people I follow are Twitter were. A few thought today was the end of the world, but I never understand those people anyway. Obama has some pretty high expectations. I doubt he ...

11.06.08My Take on the ElectionI have been sick the past few days, but I am feeling better today, so it's my turn to express my feeling on the past election. To start off remember, I don't consider myself a Democrat or Republican. In fact I voted some some of each in the past election. I vote for who I think is the bet person for the job. Rarely to I ever agree with everything a person stands for. I think Obama getting elected was a great thing. Not because I totally agree with him, because I don't, but because I ...

10.17.08Faux NewsHere is an example of why I don't and wont ever watch Fox News. They are totally one sided, and interrupt anybody with different ideas. I hate most of these stupid talking head shows, but this is the reason you won't find Fox News on my satellite box guide.

10.13.08My Election Pet PeevesDriving home from work I really noticed a lot of political yard signs. I don't get the point of them. Do some people not know who is running? Are people going to base their vote on who their neighbors vote for? For me seeing all the McCain yard signs reminds be to get out and vote for Obama. Today I also read that a bunch of people are having their Obama signs stolen, or destroyed. Are Republicans really that offend by the other side? Really? I can't wait for the election to be over. Not ...

09.19.08Palin’s EmailSo the internet was all a buzz yesterday about Sarah Palin's email getting hacked, if you can call it that. I wouldn't take much of a hacker to get into her email if she used easy to find information for the password reset questions. Pretty much every web based email system has a way to reset your password. You just have to answer a couple questions that most people wouldn't know, but if you are a public figure, you should realize that people are going to know more about you. This has happened many times to ...

08.29.08PoliticsSo politics seem to be on everybody's minds lately. I keep up with what's going on and stuff, but I am no political junky. I hate discussing it because it just starts fights. It's not like you can change someone else's ideas anyway. I haven't watched any of the DNC coverage. I just have better things to do with my time. I can read all about what happens afterwards. What President ever accomplishes what they says they are going to do anyway? I struggle to find unbiased news, and watching either convention ...

06.04.08Election IssuesI know where I stand on most issues. I am against abortion, but I don't believe I have the right to make the decision for anybody else, so that makes me pro choice. I am against the death penalty because I think killing people is wrong. I don't care how bad the criminal is. Lock them up for life, don't kill them. We as a society are better than that. I don't think we should stoop to the level of a criminal and kill. Next Tuesday we are having local elections for some local ...
