I just finished voting and guess what...
although i am a registered democrat, the lat 2 years have soured my stomach so much on the 'new democrats' of today that i voted pretty much republican right down the ballot. maybe its because my husband is a talk show host on an AM station and i have heard too much of what he has to say, maybe its the fact that unemployment is out of control, maybe its the fact that America appears to be on the verge of becoming a shariah compliant country, or maybe its just the fact that i dont want to make the same mistake twice. Things were far from perfect pre-Obama, which is why i voted for him... but now things are so bad with obama, i am sure going to do what i can to help take this country back. if that means for a few election cycles I vote republican just so these high and mighty, clueless about real life issues, hoity toities elitists are kicked to the curb, so be it. I am tired of being beat down, pushed around, bullied and made to feel politically incorrect for standing up for whats right and for my rights. If i want to say the pledge of allegiance, i will say it. if i want to put a big cross in my front yard, i will do it. if i want to believe strictly in evolution then i will. if i want to call an extremist a terrorist, then a terrorist is what i am calling him. i am not going to change parties because i still believe in the core values of the 'old democratic' system but i'll be damned if i let these 'new dems' control my life or pansy down to let others control my life. this is my country, the country my grandfather and my uncle fought for and plenty of other people i love, i wont sit idly by and let someone else destroy what they sacrificed so hard to build.
The Pledge of Allegiance recited at meeting for League of Women voters
I am so proud of those people who stood up and recited the pledge of allegiance in defiance of the speaker who said she did not start her meetings with the pledge... good for them, this is a show of force Americans are getting... we are tired of all the crap that is going on within the government and we are taking back our country. From here on out when I am at any event, I will stand up and make sure the pledge is recited... we need to stop worrying about the consequences and stand up for what we believe. We need to stop the pc stuff, if we want to say the pledge of allegiance and most definitely include the phrase 'under God' then thats what we do. If enough of us stand up for our rights without fear of repercussions, which is what this country was created on, then we will take back our country. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible with liberty and justice for all.

Ha Ha Ha! way to go 'mouth' hope you enjoy the notoriety now... ref the b*tc@ who made fun of the dying girl
OMG talk about karma, i cant tell you how thrilled i am that the bitch that thought it was a good idea to make fun of a dying 7 yr old and go public with her own stupidity is getting her come-uppance. her kids have been taken away; good! nobody should be raised by someone who thinks that way, what a psycho! this couple ... because the husband seemed onboard with the malicious act as well, this couple will be ostracized and run out of the community as they should be. this is the second feel good story i have today... between this bitch getting her just desserts and the man who is going to be famous because of the stupid union gaff, my heart is just full of happiness. i absolutely love to see the underdog beat the odds and serve up a big hearty serving of crow. take that union and take that bitch, and take that all you other big companies that have lawyers and money on your side... you all are about to be served!
Union fires stage hand for what he is wearing... LOL... OMG, what idiots
I absolutely love the fact that this guy, who is showing pride for what his son is doing for this country is going to become one of those rare few who get the last laugh. Talk about a major screw up... this union is going to be paying this man a great big chunk of money. I love it. To see a company or something big like the union get their come-uppance after screwing someone, which is rare nowadays... is going to be absolutely divine. Too often the big companies who have the lawyers or the money to get away with screwing an employee get off scott free... but this time this gentleman is going to be on the winning side. without going into detail, i know of another company that should have done a little research before they screwed an employee... that will be fun when that one comes to light.

vince vaughn says 'gay' in upcoming movie
what happened to the old adage 'sticks and stones may break your bones, but words will never hurt you?' jeez, we cant even joke around about the word 'gay' used in the 'lame' form? i am really sick and tired of the pc planet we live on... it seems to me that anyone will jump on the 'you offended me bandwagon' these days. my gosh, if there is a fat white lady sitting on a bench next to a thin white lady and you are trying to distinguish between the two... you can say the thin lady, but if you say the 'fat' lady.. wow you are a horrible person. if there are two men in line and one is black and the other is white, and again you are trying to distinguish between the two, you are either going to say the white guy or the black guy... and bam, you have offended someone. since when can you stand in line at a 7/11 and have a conversation with your friend using the f word in every other sentence, but when you call a woman a 'fat' woman, you are in the wrong? does anyone else agree with me? if so, lets stand up and quit walkin on eggs around each other.
extreme muslims vs terrorists... there is no difference, quit being pc
you know, we have all tried to follow obama's pc manner by not using the word 'terrorists' instead we have to say 'extreme muslims' well two things... a) if i were a muslim i wouldnt want to be hear 'extreme muslims' because no matter that the word extreme is there first, it ties with muslims and people tend to only hear muslims. second, call a spade a spade, these people are 'terrorists' they shouldnt be defined by a race or a religion or a group other than that of what they are... 'terrorists' so with all due respect mr president, i think we should all go back to calling a terrorist exactly that... a terrorist.
Zero Tolerance? what about zero tolerance for adults who cant use common sense?
Sean and Mike are talking about zero tolerance in schools and once again I agree with these two. I am sick and tired of adults not being able to make intelligent decisions. These school officials are teaching our children, if the educators cant figure out how to use common sense, how do we expect them to teach our children common sense? Its ridiculous that there is no gray area, its black or white and thats nuts. Putting a 14 year old in jail for six weeks for allegedly stealing a few bucks is crazy. we wonder why everyone wants to sue establishments... well damn, i would be right on that sue bandwagon if someone put my 14 year old in jail for that. I am so sick and tired of all this

Eminem song lyrics, very hypocritical, not just controversial
I think its absolutely crazy to have lewd, disgusting, nasty degrading and explicit language in your songs and then say you dont let your own children listen to that sort of horrible music. talk about double talk, be real eminem... do you think your daughters dont think you are a hypocrite? if the only way you can make money is putting out music you yourself wont let your children listen to, then you are worthless as a man and especially as a father. not every parent has the option to easily monitor what their kids are listening to. you probably arent smart enough to understand the adage 'it takes a village to raise a child' there are a lot of single parents out there who rely on others to help raise their kids, whether they want to or not. it sure would be nice if we could all stay home and raise our kids the way you seem to think it is, but in the real world its just not plausible. so fast forward to real time... if people like you would take the offensive language out of their music, claiming its their right to express themselves any way they want, then perhaps teens wouldn't walk around thinking they can say lewd and disgusting words just to show they can exercise their own rights. we need to bring back civility and proper behavior if we want to get control of this country, and that starts with every one of us. why dont you take a stand against that offensive language and do something to be proud of instead of leaving a legacy of... 'who? emimen? inst he that jerk who had all those foul language songs? what an ass'
bill o'reilly on the view... my opinion
i just watched the clip of bill o'reilly say that the majority of americans dont want the mosque built at ground zero and saying that muslims killed us on 9/11...wow, what an ugly exchange that was. it did become a ridiculous scream fest, and i most certainly do not agree with the ladies at all that walked off, nor do i think they are correct in their not agreeing with bill. it even sounded like the audience agreed with bill judging by the clapping when he said there shouldnt be a mosque built. i dont have enough information to understand why in the world these two women, joy and whoopi, would want the mosque built at ground zero. i have often wondered who and what kind of person it would be to want the mosque built there. today i am going to watch the view for the first time to see if i can see it from their point of view. i pride myself on being fair and listening to all sides of an argument so i will try to hear their point of view, but that will not change my view. the mosque at ground zero is wrong, if only on the level of propriety. Extreme muslims attacked us on 9/11 at that location, there is nothing proper about any muslim temple, multicultural or not, being built there. i still cant believe this is even a discussion and i truly can not understand how seemingly intelligent people, like joy and whoopi, would even back the support of the mosque. there has to be something we are missing, so i will watch the view today and hopefully change my opinion of these two women. btw, cudos to barbara walters for saying what she said, thats not the proper way to behave. a screamfest was not required, nor should people walk away and dismiss something so important.
Bloomfield DMV and other services Huge RANT!
Big rant...! This rant is not geared towards any individual at the Bloomfield MVD, this rant is the overall running of the office. First off, some brilliant idiot thought it would be a great idea to remove any type of receptionist for the mvd office, in its place someone sits there who only collects utility payments. so to even ask a simple question, like 'can i get an application for vanity plates?' you have to get a number and wait in que. stupid stupid stupid. if you do dare to just step up to the window to ask a simple question.. you get a look from the employee like you have a disease. but here is my biggest rant regarding the bloomfield mvd... there are signs everywhere that say there is a $3.00 fee per transaction, ok, transactions fees are bullshit but pretty much accepted as status quo. but guess what? that 3.00 goes directly to the employee who does the transaction,... like a tip. thats bullshit. so mcdonalds can put up a sign that says there is a 3.00 per transaction fee? instead of your bigmac meal being 6dollars, its now six to the till and 3 to the dummy behind the counter? i dont think so. of course there is also a sign in the mvd that says, we are not part of the state blah blah blah, if you have any problems with the way this office operates call... some number. i called the number because the $3 transaction fee really pisses me off, but of course i just got a recording and i do not expect a call back. unbelievable.

Women are not happy with obama... duh, is anyone?
although i voted for obama two years ago because i thought he was the best candidate and i am democrat, i too am not happy with the way the country has evolved over the last 2 years, we need to study the candidates and be intelligent with our vote. i am and probably always will be a democrat; because i believe in the core of the democratic party, but maybe there are now two different types of dems... older democrats and new progressive democrats. i believe in equality across the board, equal pay, equal rights for everyone. women still make less than men for the same job, women are still looked down on by republicans and thats what drives me to being a democrat. i am going to vote my heart, if its a democrat i am voting for for one office and a republican for another, so be it. there is no way i am going to do this blindly as we have done in the past. voting for democrats just because you want to prove a point is not a good reason, vote for the right person, democrat or republican.
