George W., my hero!

I love George W. Bush!!! What an awesome guy! And, I am proud that he has the backbone to keep going each and every day!!!

But... don't you know the mistakes that he made? He doesn't stand up to anything. He just lets people believe what they will! How can he do that?

How can he not do that? The problem with the left and the right, is that they are opposites. Opposites that think that they are right. The right is not right according to the left, and the left isn't right according to the right. The left and right are both extremes. The left wants abortion legally because people should have the right to choose. The right however, doesn't want there to be any choice but the right, moral choice. 
The left wants to get us out of Iraq, the right wants us in. There is never any middle ground. Everyone thinks that they are right. What if both sides are right, but only right together? What a concept!!!!

Pro choice groups say, heck with the baby, the mom should decide what she wants to do, whether it be abortion, or something else. The pro life group says, you can only have the baby, keep it, or give it up for adoption. You can only pick one side of this coin. If you believe in God, you have to be pro life, pro choicers are anti-God. 
I personally belive, that women should decide before they have sex, whether or not they are ready for motherhood. Because, um, I don't know if anyone knows this, but sex is what causes women to get pregnant! Gasp! Really? Uh, yeah. Been there, done that, that's a fact! Its not just a fun time, it can lead to a big responsibility. That's where I think women should be pro choice, not after. But, you know the thing is, not all women think the same way I do. "What?" you say. "They should!" "That's the only right way to think, I know cause I believe in God!!!". Ugh, I hate when people start using God to tell other people what to do. And.. yes, sometimes I hate myself for that same reason. Its easy to do, regulate your own morality on someone else.

What they should do, because after all you know better than they. I used to think that all the time. I make the best and smartest choices. Do I? Do I really? Do I make the best and smartest decisions. No, not always, sometimes I am wr---. "What did you say?" "You are wr---?" . I am wr---, wr---, okay, I am wrong. I hate being wrong. Really I do. I want to be right all the time, I want people to always agree with my ideas, and the things that I say, and I am so upset when they don't. Its horrible! How can they not just agree with me? 

It cracks me up that George W. should have known that there weren't any WMD's in Iraq. We had no reasons to go into that country and take out Sadaam and Co. He lied to us! I conversely can say that Al Gore lied to the people when he thought he was going to win the presidential election. I'm sorry, Mr. Gore, didn't you really know that you weren't going to win the election? How could you do that, how could you make everyone believe that you were and didn't!!! How dare you! Oh we can't be too hard on Mr. Gore, he's the only one who knows for sure about global warming and the death of thousands or millions, because of it. George Bush, on the other hand, is a loser.

Speaking of global warming, isn't it ironic that the guy who is sounding the alarms won't give up his carbon output, and the one who won't do much about it, is the guy who already lives in an eco-friendly house? 

The thing is, we all have free will. We can all believe anything we want. We can all do the things that we want, and no one has to go along with us if they don't want to. You can make people go along with you, in the case of Sadaam and Co. Pretty stiff penalties if you don't, you lose your life. Or worse, you watch everyone you love lose their lives, and then you lose your life. Or worse still, you watch everyone you love lose their lives, and you live. George W. doesn't seem to think anyone has to believe what he believes, and you can go around and think all that you want, but he is the president. Maybe that's why people hate him so? I don't know. I do know that when you stand up for what you believe, what you really, truly, believe, deep down in your heart, you stand alone. 

You go it alone, because for some reason that just pisses people off. Even Christian people. The deeply moral people, who want to do everything biblically, or else the world ends! AHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! Beware of God coming to judge us!!! The thing is, a person can only do so much. A person can only influence so many people, a person can only do so many things right. A person can only think so many right thoughts, and the rest are wr---.

We focus so much on the negative, we focus so much on what "they" are doing. That we forget to focus on what we are doing. What are you doing? Are you living a good life? Can it be better? Or are you just so tired of it all? I get kind of tired of all the decisions that need to be made. I get tired of all the people telling me that I didn't make all the right decisions. I get tired of people telling me what it is that I should do, and how I should live my life right. 

If I count all the calories, and excericise, then I'll lose weight. If, I do this diet, or that diet, or if I do this diet, and that diet, and excercise, I will lose weight. If... is a pretty big word. If, I wanted to do any diet at all, I have a good chance of succeeding. If.. I wanted to excercise, I would have a better chance of succeeding. But, I don't, so I don't lose weight. Does anyone really care if I don't lose weight? Okay, I do, but I don't want to do those things. 
I want the magic fairy to come to my house and wave her magic wand, and poof! Its done. Sort of like liposuction, but a lot less painful. 

I get tired, of trying to figure out what I'm wearing today, I get tired of trying to figure out what's for dinner, etc. Life is full of so many choices that we must make. And.. we must make every choice the perfect choices!
There can be no mistakes. And. who decides what is a mistake? And, really, who is alive now, and has never made a mistake? Oh, yeah, the media. I think we should check out all these peoples backgrounds, and see what a perfect life looks like.

Was it a mistake to go into Iraq? Is it a mistake to let people say all the bad things that they want to say, and they don't get into trouble for it? How can Nancy Pelosi go to Iraq! How dare she!!!! Why didn't the president stop her! Sometimes, you have to let people find out on their own, and you can't stop them from all the wrong mistakes that they are going to make. Maybe her trip won't be so bad? Hmmm... naw! ( I've got the future fairy telling me that it was a mistake)

I get so tired of trying to live right, that it makes me so tired to think of how I'm going to figure out someone elses life to make them "live right". I used to think that I could fix everyones elses life, and I did a good job too!!!! But, then I noticed, my life. Yikes!  

That's why I love George W. He does what he thinks is right, and so far he hasn't backed down, even when everyone and their mother is against him. He does have a few friends left, how lucky for him! He makes his decisions and stands by them, even when the going is tough, even though many, many people think he's wr---. He can't possibly be right, so many of us think he is wrong. Or, he was right here, and wrong there. Or he's just plain wrong! 
Yet, he makes it another day. He stands up another day. He tries hard another day. Isn't that what makes a hero? Isn't that what makes a good leader, one that inspires us to keep going? Not to give up and give in, but someone who will do it himself? I hate the jihadist leaders, if strapping a bomb to your body is so wonderful, why don't you do it? I guess cause they aren't that dumb! 

George W., you keep going. Hang tough, and hang in there!!! You are my hero!

Look! The sky is falling!!!

I was thinking today of the differences between the left and the right. Not the hand, silly! Or the feet, but the differences in how we look at things and perceive things in life. 
I (obviously) go to the right, and I wonder at the people that go to the left. How can they think the things that they think? How can they believe in global warming, abortion, etc. They think they're right to think the things they do, and the right thinks they're right. And.. they always think the opposite of each other.
Except, that they both have their scaremongers. Yes, the right have their share too. The world is losing all morality, the family is going downhill. We are in the worst moral period in HISTORY, people! God is going to get us all for all that we allow to happen in this world, we have to start working harder to get it right
Who are you kidding? From what I know in reading the Bible, the world is no worse off since man was created. News Flash people, Adam and Eve ate the fruit in the garden, Cain killed Abel, Tamar was raped by her brother, the men in Sodom wanted to have their way with the angel that came to Lot, Lot's daughters got their dad drunk and got pregnant by him, Moses killed someone and then ran away, King David slept with Bathsheeba, killed her husband, had a kid out of wedlock and still was King. 
Solomon, the wisest guy around had more wives, then he could possibly know what to do with, and he was led astray by their worshipping of idols. Elijah stood up to Jezebel, then ran away in total fear for his life. Samson died when he got revenge. The new testament isn't any better. Paul was forever trying to help people live a better life in the moral depravity that was Rome. Hello, doesn't anyone read history? 
We want to criticize the Christians for the crusades, God wouldn't like that, but maybe He would. If the Christians didn't fight the muslims then, maybe we would all be under Sharia law now? Maybe events of today, make it possible to see the reasoning then? I know that God has said that He sends nations to judge nations. Men, women and children are killed in the Bible, under God's command. 
Its amazing that the same right thinking people can't stand the left telling people anything, and constantly complain about their criticizing, but they criticize too. They want freedom of speech and don't think that they get it, but fire Rosie, people shouldn't hear what she has to say. Fire Imus, fire this person and that person, they are going to lead the people wrong. I'm sorry, but are people supposed to only listen to one side of the coin? Are you the only side with all the answers, right answers to the questions? Aren't you now trying to do what you criticize the left in doing? Lets hear both sides, and people will believe what they want. Sorry, that's just the way it is. Free Will, kind of sucks when you want people to believe only what you think. 
Maybe people are dumb, some are smart, but I can guarantee you that NO ONE has all the answers. Well, God does, but are we listening? And, are the only ones that can hear God,the ones telling others how to live their lives right? The church has plenty of people who somehow think that they are perfect now that they are Christians. I'm sorry, but I thought that Christians are the people who finally realized that they need a dr, and seek the only dr who knows anything, Christ! Christ then is the one who heals us. He didn't take away sin from our lives, but you wouldn't know that sometimes. I know the world is under the misguided notion that ALL Christians are now perfect and have to act perfectly. But, what do they know about perfection, and what is perfect?  Whose list of perfections are we using today? The rights, or the lefts? Or maybe its the independents today?
Getting back to the differences, if healthcare is such an immediate issue, if global warming is so severe, though tomorrow we are supposed to get 4 inches of snow, and more, um... if illegal immegration is so big, crime so outstanding,social security on the verge of collapse, why is it that the politicians are doing nothing at all about these problems today?  Are they talking about it? Are they worried about it right now, TODAY? I haven't seen anything today. The war in Iraq, we are so mean and so bad to be there. We should have let Saddam and his boys still be in power. That would be the nicest thing I suppose. Our people are dying. I'm sorry, but isn't that what the military is for? Fighting wars? Soldiering, death, comes with the territory. Why do we always want to second guess what people should do, tell them how to live their lives? Scare people into thinking that the world's a second away from oblivion? But, if you do this and do that, life will be good. Eat more broccoli, drink wine, eat an apple, oh wait, not the apples again! If you plant some trees, you can keep up your carbon output. If we fight for the family, since the family is dying, it'll work out better for everyone. Ever been in a family? Sometimes families aren't all that great. Marriage is under assault, abortion, we have to regulate morality. You can try it, but people end up doing the wrong things anyway. 
Then what shall we do? Do the best you can, and try to live your life the best way you know how. Know God, and work towards knowing Him better. That's the best you can do. And... enjoy today, we are all going to die tomorrow!!!!

Where there's smoke....

I said the magic words, and voila! Here I am, blogging again. I think to blog here, you have to take a few deep breaths, and be very patient. 

Anyway, I think I've figured out the problem with politicians. I know how we can get them to make decisions faster. I came up with this brainstorm after watching the Bishops elect a new pope. What a novel idea that some king came up with. Lock them all up in a room together and don't let them out until they decided a new pope. Wow!!! I then thought, that could work for congress! 

Can you imagine if the president locked them all in a room together? They can't come out until they come up with some solutions to some of the problems here. For starters, every election, health care. Now, I'm not hearing too much about healthcare right now, but I have a sneaking suspicion, that next year we are going to hear much more about it. (think election year). However, what if the president says, well, I want some ideas, some plans to counter the problem. You know how the politicians get, they start working the press, posturing for position, and nothing gets done. 

Well, to counter that, the president, locks them all in a big room, and they can't come out until they light the fireplace, to where the whole country will be looking for the smoke to rise from the building, letting us know that some plans have been made. That this issue will have been taken care of, and we, us citizens can be happy cause something got done today. 

No vacations for them, no leaving town, no lobbying, no press conferences. Just something done towards solving the problems. Maybe no paycheck either. That in itself would be a novel idea! I was also thinking that to make it fair, that the members of congress pass a bill, that would limit their terms to two years too. New blood every  now and then could do wonders for this country. Everyone of us has ideas, no fun that only the rich few get to decide things all the time. Plus, hate to say it, but what do they really know anyway? Doesn't look like much sometimes. 
 When I think of the rich people making all the decions for us "poor, stupid" people, I think of the movie Titanic. I think of the sinking ship, and the "poor, stupid" people with the rats, locked below deck while the more important people are put in the life boats. I always wonder, when at the end of the movie, you see some of the rich, snobs, sad about the "poor, stupid" peoples death screams, I wonder, did they really care? Or was it to take the sting away that they didn't care for anyone but themselves? Do the rich, snobs care anything about us "poor, stupid" people, or do they just care for themselves, and do we have to find out the truth the hard way? 

Well, they say, where theres smoke, there's fire, I think that Mr. President should light a fire under congresses butt (ahem) and lets get something done, before there aren't anymore life boats left for me!

Global warming and killer bees

"What do killer bees and global warming have in common?" you ask, well, I'll be pleased to tell you! Because, you know, that's where I'm heading. 
When I was a teen I was petrified. First off because I watched the news, and scientists were telling everyone that we were headed for another ice age. In my mind, I was wondering if by the time that happened, would we be able to have more energy, more heat to heat our homes, or are we just going to be frozen, dead, in our beds or something. Or, maybe like in the movie Logan's Run, people lived in a dome. Maybe, "they'll" build warm domes over cities, and we won't all freeze to death then. 
Well, then mysteriously after a while, I didn't hear about the new ice age anymore. Here I was scared out of my mind, and no one is talking about it anymore. "?????" says I. This is BIG news still to me. Why is it though, that when people are wrong they don't have to say it? 
Anyway, seemed like right away there was a new problem, killer bees. Flying in from Mexico or South America. They were headed for the U.S., and were hopping mad, many people were going to die. I figured that they were super killer bees, since after flying over from whichever country, they were still going to be able to sting people to their deaths. I had visions of bees tearing open screens, coming into peoples houses and stinging them to death. I was so terrified, that I wouldn't even open the windows in the summer. We didn't have air conditioning, so you can see my sacrifice to fear. 
What does this have to do with global warming? Well, I believe John Stossel was right when he said that the media hypes all sorts of fears. What will the new fear be after global warming? When global warming turns out to be a hoax, then will anyone apologize? Do these people think of the fearful children they create? I don't know, but I do know, that I don't take things the media says and turn it into reality. I wait awhile, read some facts, make choices that way, because the last straw for me, was when I read that apples were bad for us. Now, theres killer apples. These same apples that for years were supposed to be sooooo good for you that they'd keep the doctor away, were now going to end your life! That's when I decided that maybe all the stuff that gets hyped out there is just a bunch of fear mongering. Perhaps that's all that global warming is? People trying to scare people for their own reasons. Remember Y2K? Need I say more?

Finally!!!!

I have spent so much time trying to figure out how to blog, that I'm going nearly insane, with frustration!
All my angst has to do with this computer. If I had a hammer, and if banging on the computer with a hammer would do the job, I would gladly do it. 
What is it with frustration anyway, that makes banging on a computer with a hammer, such a relief? 
Well, I didn't have to go to that extreme, but it was tense there for a while. 

 "How many times did the computer lock up trying to open this page?" you ask.
"Countless," says I. 
"How many times did you turn the computer off?" you say. "Well, just the once, but that didn't do the job either." 

"So, then, how were you able to blog then?" 
"Dumb luck, and a quick prayer, so we didn't have to go out and shop for another computer when I busted this one with the hammer!"

Well, I think I've blogged the frustration right out of me, and I'll be calmer with my next blog on global warming and killer bees.
