Politics
Reading through CNNs analysis of the RNC convention I came across this:
“”It’s easy to forget that this is a man who has authored two memoirs but not a single major law or reform, not even in the state Senate,” she said.”
Now I do know many who support Obama and heck they are within there right to do so but I think that we need more than a person who can speak but a person that can speak.
“What exactly is our opponent’s plan? What does he actually seek to accomplish after he’s done turning back the waters and healing the planet? The answer is to make the government bigger and take more of your money.”
“Here’s a little news flash for all those reporters and commentators: I’m not going to Washington to seek their good opinion. I’m going to Washington to serve the people of this country.”
–Sarah Palin
Dragons!!!
I saw a dragon in my dream and it was really big and scary!!!
MONKEYS!!!
Monkeys do exist!!!
Level of understanding
With many things there is a level of understanding that has to exist for it to become of worth. Now when we don’t achieve that level of understanding many tend to reject and fight against it or even when you do and don’t grasp the concept. I browse the web and find bigotry and prejudice that would rival the Civil Rights problem that our county has for little things such as the right for freedom of religion.
Now I can understand if someone disagrees to a point or a person but the personal attack that pursues is uncalled for. Now I don’t agree with most and I do have my opinion and all but when it comes down to it I don’t go calling someone a bigot until they have done the work for me. Many of my authors that I read I would not want to spend more than a mere second with but the work they do is much better. Now I do think that one can portray a side of themselves and still keep the bad out of it.
in the world of Politics this is a tool that is used to excite the crowds (riots). Well that would be it.
Books Books and Books
Well for my Birthday this summer I got a bunch of books that I have been working on. This selection included Triskellion (just a impulse buy) Fablehaven series (really good) and Pillage (cover looked cool). I first devoured the first Fablehaven and then went to finish off the series which made me mad since the series stopped since he is still working on the next sequel. Then I started Triskellion out of curiosity and it was actually a really good book that also made me mad at the fact the sequel was coming out next year. Last night I finished Pillage which had the cool cover but was a really interesting read but a really good story. What can I expect since there are no more Harry Potter Books to wait for any more. As well as Dan Brown hasn’t published in a while so he has nothing new (which I am soo excited about the new one it hurts but I am curious who he is going to piss off this time).
Something to think about.
I was looking at Wikipedia today and found this quote from the World War 2 monument in Washington DC.
“Here in the presence of Washington and Lincoln, one of the eighteenth century Father and the other the nineteenth century preserver of our nation, we honor those twentieth century americans who took up the struggle during the second World War and made the sacrifices to perpetuate teh gifr our forefathers entrusted to us: A NATION CONCEIVED IN LIBERTY AND JUSTICE.”
Now tell me what are we doing with a sacred trust in what we have been entrusted to us?

Another Funny
Business Sign in the Window:
“WE WOULD RATHER DO BUSINESS WITH 1000 AL QAEDA TERRORISTS THAN WITH ONE SINGLE AMERICAN”
This sign was prominently displayed in the window of a business in Philadelphia . You are probably outraged at the thought of such an inflammatory statement. One would think that anti-hate groups from all across the country would be marching on this business . . . and that the National Guard might have to be called to keep the angry crowds back. But, perhaps in these stressful times one might be tempted to let the proprietors simply make their statement . . . . We are a society which holds Freedom of Speech as perhaps our greatest liberty. And after all, it is just a sign.
You may ask what kind of business would dare post such a sign?
Answer: A Funeral Home
(Who said morticians had no sense of humor?)
You gotta love it!!!
Global Depression
Wow I am not sure if I understood what I was seeing but that Gas was falling at a steep rate. This could be a chance that the entire world is having trouble with oil and that they no longer can afford to pay for it. We will see the little country’s struggle and then have fail. With us depending somewhat on there economy we will struggle and see the same as we did in the 1930’s. If nothing changes this is what will happen since nothing is being done to stop it. The failure to do will result in the failure of the ecomony and will cost in many lives in our country and many others.
This is the stupid politics that many dismiss when they graduate from high school or college. There is a level of ignorance that should be allowed but there is a level of gross incompetence as the country is disgusting. How some are willing to sit back and enjoy the luxuries that will be taken from them in the near future as they watch there world collapse and they lose there jobs. Seems funny that our economy is based on nothing and we are in the process of watching that nothing turn into more nothing and less of nothing.
Another Week gone too quickly
I am not sure why I even bother with this since nobody reads my blog. So I will just keep it to that.
