I have absolutely no motivation today. I am not sure why but it has just been a hum drum kind mood all morning. I did however get to catch up on some more blogs out there and have found a few new ones I plan on keeping up with.

Anyhow, I was up this morning at about 4am (couldn't sleep) and decided to Cruz some blogs and go into a chat room. I entered a military chat room on Yahoo and to my surprise, there were actual people in there chatting,lol. We had some great conversations about everyday life when this Fanatical Jack Ass came into the room. Now normally I am a very tolerant person. I believe everyone is entitled to their own views and opinions but why on earth would you go into a room clearly titled "Military" and the flip out when you find out that most of the people in it are well, how do I say this, IN THE MILITARY. Hello moron, anyone home upstairs. Now that alone is not bad enough, this Pole Smoker decided to make it his own personal mission to try and convert the room full of Soldiers and Soldiers family members into anti-government faggots. This guy starts running his Cock Holster about how the Government is sending Soldiers to die so that they can get more money for themselves. Now if you honestly believe that this war is all about making money for the rich and polititions, You really need to pull your head out of your Fourth Point of Contact. It has only been 6 years since the devastating attacks on our own soil, How could you possibly have forgotten so soon why these men and women are really there. We all made our choice to defend this country against all enemies, It was a conscience decision. I understand that you are a Fanatical Chiken Shit that would wrather run to Canada than protect your own family and I am OK with your decision to do so. I am even OK with your idealistic dreams of a totally chaotic anarchy. Not to mention I am OK with the fact that you want to stand on corners at the entrance to VA and other Military hospitals chanting and screaming hurtful things to the wounded Soldiers and their family members. Hell, you get to do those things because those Soldiers made their choice to defend your family and beliefs for you. So go ahead and tuck your tail between your legs, Run off to some other country to hide, Oh and don't forget to relinquish your American Citizenship, because most of us really don't want you back.

What I am not OK with, is the fact that you actually think you can do better. Hell if you could, then why are you not a politition pushing new laws and such??

Do I believe our Government is perfect, Hell no, but it is still the best one in the world. Their will always be thieves and snakes with their own agendas in Politics, That is just human nature. That is one of the reasons that we have so many Politics to begin with, to keep eachother in check. We will never have a perfect Government, Dream all you want but it is impossible. The only thing we can do is "Try to Improve" on what we have and hope for the best. It always has been and always will be "Trial and Error" The thing that makes it work is our belief in it and our resolve to make it work one way or another, not to mention our will to FIGHT for those beliefs and convictions.

I guess I just needed to get this off my chest from this morning.

All I have to say in closing is,

IF YOU DO NOT LIKE THIS COUNTRY AND THE WAY IT IS RUN THEN GET THE FUCK OUT!!


In America any boy may become President and I suppose it's just one of the risks he takes.

Adlai E. Stevenson Jr. (1900 - 1965), Speech in Indianapolis, 26 Sept. 195

The Army has carried the American ... ideal to its logical conclusion. Not only do they prohibit discrimination on the grounds of race, creed and color, but also on ability.

Tom Lehrer (1928 - )

A citizen of America will cross the ocean to fight for democracy, but won't cross the street to vote in a national election.

Fire and Ice.

Here is the deal, I know I have not been online in a while updating my site but I came on today to post a couple things and to check some of the other sites I try to keep up with. This site always gets me where it counts, Honor The Fallen. Please check out the site, send a donation if you can, and there are some great songs and videos on there honoring the fallen and still fighting soldiers of yesteryear and today.

Please visit the site and say a prayer tonight for the fighting men and women of the U.S. Armed Forces

I see in the near future a crisis approaching that unnerves me and causes me to tremble for the safety of my country. . . . Corporations have been enthroned, an era of corruption in high places will follow, and the money-power of the country will endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people until the wealth is aggregated in a few hands and the Republic is destroyed.
