I’m not intending on sounding rude, racist, or mean in any way with this question, but I have a serious question to ask. We have hundreds and thousands of homeless and hungry people in this country already.  Many are US citizens that were born and raised here, and either by acts of service (former vets) Read More…

California dreamin…

It’s a little hard for me to say this without cringing, but I really hope Bernie Sanders wins all of California’s (and the remaining states) delegates tomorrow. Mind you, I’m an independent (with libertarian leanings) and a Constitutional conservative mentality.  Meaning a LOT of what Bern-me stands for and wants (99.999% of it) I disagree Read More…

Sticks and stones…

May break my bones, but names will never hurt me.  I grew up hearing that all the time.  It was a great thought to help me get over the name calling and bullying I endured.  And yeah, I wasn’t the popular kid in school, so I did get called names.  Not often, but enough.  But Read More…

In addition to banning abortions due to fetal genetic abnormalities, the law will prohibit abortions done because of a fetus’s race, sex or ancestry and mandates that the only way to dispose of an aborted fetus is through burial or cremation. The bill has been criticized by a national group of gynecologists and several female Read More…

Thank you, vets

Those words are so incredibly weak to me.  Truthfully, there are no words that can express my own personal gratitude to our servicemen and women – past, present, and future – for serving this country.  Or more appropriately, for serving the people of this country. There are many people today that would talk bad about Read More…

Endings

I hate endings.  Well, sometimes I hate endings, sometimes they are good.  Today, not so much though. For the past I don’t know how long, I’ve been listening to a podcast on it’s regular schedule.  Usually a new episode every three weeks, a two week break, and then the next chapter over three weeks.  The Read More…

This week’s Random Thoughts

Fireworks this week were nice.  Although we didn’t hit up the big organized displays in town, we got to sit out on the driveway and watch some neighborhood displays.  However, I’d like to ask that since the 4th was on Friday, there really isn’t a need to keep firing off the displays on Sunday the Read More…

So, our government reaches a last minute budget deal to reopen before the "debt ceiling/default" deadline.  Honestly, is there anyone out there that doubted they would?  I mean, really, how many times have we seen the timer on the explosive device count down to 00:01 before the wires get cut and the explosive doesn’t go Read More…

A repost for your consideration…

  The section highlighted in yellow is what makes me most annoyed with our government.  If this healthcare idea is so good for us, it should be good enough for them. How’s the Economy at Your House? 10/02/2013 The news media, the President, and Congress should be cautious in trotting out “victims” of the government Read More…

please wait while your government shuts down…..

I feel no sympathy for the government workers on furlough.   Don’t get me wrong, it sucks when anyone loses their job.  But honestly, people lose their jobs daily when businesses close their doors for good.  I think 3 local businesses in the Henderson/Evansville area recently closed their doors for good.  Those people may not be Read More…
