What I missed

It's been so long since my last post due to being bogged down by moving, birthdays, kids starting school, weddings, and many other time sensitive duties of life. It should calm down some in the following months, I hope at least. I was working on a follow-up to the July 4th post dealing with the controversy surrounding the founding fathers when our lives were put on hold for a few weeks. I hope to have that completed and up before I travel with my family to my younger brothers wedding in Ohio. Traveling with my kids right now is not an exciting expectation. My youngest has turned into a screamer if he is displeased in anyway shape or form. My oldest went through that phase for a few months, so hopefully we won't have to land a plane due to a disturbance in the cabin.

Since my last post on July 4th, there have been a few articles that have caught my attention, I just never had the time to comment on them. If you are interested, they can all be found on google. Newt Gingrich criticized the current administration for not protecting our own interest here in our own nation (borders and such). The South Carolina Governor (my home state) commits infidelities while globe-trotting, then holding interviews where he nonchalantly, almost condones his behavior. President Obama called a cops' actions stupid for doing his job and following procedures while arresting a friend of his (Gates), then realizing he probably inserted a big size 10 shoe in his mouth, invited him to the White House for beer, only in America. I'd love to be a fly on the wall in that room. Global warming, excuse me, climate change is still the talk of the day among Hollywood do-gooders and politicians. Every one is saving the planet and all of it's inhabitants. They have to do something to appease their consciences I guess. I recently saw nearly a 4 minute add on the polar bears, and the fact that the ice is melting and they will soon be extinct. "Sponsor a polar bear"...yeah, sign me up for that one. There was a large explosion on Jupiter, and "earth could be next". Headline read "meteor will hit earth"...millions of years from now was what the article went on to say.

I wasn't a a big fan of Bush, but he got blamed for this sort of thing all the time, painting a dark picture to apply policy and decisions. Look, every administration has it's quirks, fear mongering is at it's best when it comes to the economy and the planet. Many are whole-heartedly putting their trust into the smooth swagger of Barrack Obama and cronies And who better to lead us into our new future then the rock star, let's all unite and come together and take our planet back, socialism saves!

Well, enough pinned up sarcasm for one day. Thank God we have a hope not of this world, or that is dependent on kingdom builders.
