Eric Von Haessler singing You Make Me Feel Like Dancing. Andy Gibb (Larry Wachs) provides some backup vocals. I got bored Thanksgiving night and put together a video with the audio from the Regular Guys Show on Rock 100.5 in Atlanta. If you haven't listened to them before, you should go to www.regularguys.com and listen to them every morning. I've been listening to their show since they came to Atlanta in the late 90s. Crazy shit like this makes me keep listening.

Famous Texas Tech Bellringer
We have now a new Bellringer for Texas Tech. Check this guy out and his facial expression as he looks to please himself behind the bell.
Do you remember the bellringer from a few years ago? This hippie really gets into ringing that bell and looks to get maximum pleasure doing it. What a job.

Obama The Marxist
This is not shocking because I know Obama's past associations and his fondness for Marxist professors in college. But for him to say this with camera's around is music to my ears. How many in the mainstream media will bring this up? Punishing a guy who works 10-12 hours a day with higher taxes because he's successful is not the American way and giving it to bums who are on welfare and food stamps makes me madder than you'll ever know. If you vote for this Marxist, you've been brainwashed like the Germans were prior to World War II when they voted for an Austrian named Adolf Hitler because he promised the same redistribution of wealth. Do you realize what is going to happen if Obama is elected and the House, Senate and the President all have this same philosophy? There is rampant corruption in the Democratic Party and the media is keeping it a secret.

One Pissed Off Dude
This praying mantis got madder than a wet hen when I walked down my front porch stairs. He bowed up to me and started swinging with jabs and a few hooks at my foot. I had to get some action shots, so I grabbed my cam. He truly was one pissed off soldier. I guess I'll let him be king of the porch as long as he kills all the wasps.

Hunters Beware of Obama
Yes, Obama is the man that told his elite left wing buddies at a San Fran fundraiser that these bitter NRA Pennsylvanians cling to their guns and religion with antipathy to those who aren't like them. Obama is a joke. I don't understand how anyone could vote for him. Well I do understand how the Democrats pick up busloads of the poor from inner cities and take them to the polls, then give them free lunches and dinners once they vote. That's how it works with the Chicago political machine, one of the most corrupt in the country, which produced Obama...

A Speech from the Republican Convention You May Not Have Heard
Mike Huckabee gave one of the best speeches at either convention in my opinion. If you have 15 mins to listen to this, definitely take the time. If you didn't know already or don't realize by the end of the speech, Gov. Huckabee is an ordained Southern Baptist Minister.

One way to know you live in the south

This is Jon Lieber's truck. He's a pitcher for the Cubs. He lives in Mobile Alabama. Damn this F650 is a beast. No, Lieber doesn't have a mullet, but he fits right in here. He even drove this truck to Turner Field yesterday. Takes up 2 parking spaces longways. I think Lieber thought Russia was invading Atlanta Georgia when he drove this tank to town. If I only had this truck in high school and college to cruise the strip on PC Beach.

Windfall profit truths Barack Obama doesn't want you to know
Barack Obama has been proposing windfall profit taxes on the "evil big oil companies" over the past few days to his mobs of dumb masses he's been speaking to at campaign rallies. These mobs who cheer him have no idea what it means other than I'm going to get a free handout if government taxes them. Have you ever done anything for yourselves? Do you consider yourself part of the real working class who works for themselves and their family or part of the working class that the Democrats love, the ones who earn just enough to where they still qualify for all of the government assistance programs (welfare, food stamps, government housing, etc). These people can't understand basic economics and will believe anything that comes out of the politician's mouth if it involves getting a handout. For example, when Obama says the government will take the profits of the big oil companies through a windfall profit tax and give every American working family $1,000.00, you can hear the cheers at his rallies. A handout for doing absolutely nothing. You get $1,000 from the "evil big oil companies" who would show that money as a profit on their books. That will feel great, right?
If you think that is a great idea, I feel really sorry for you and recognize you probably aren't that intelligent or don't have much control over your finances. I'll give you a quick lesson. Oil companies are publicly held corporations with many shareholders. That means any ordinary person can buy a share of the company and can have a voice in board elections and business decisions that will affect their investment. When you own one or more of these shares of the company, you can possibly get a dividend on that share or shares that you own. Dividends can be paid quarterly, semi-annually, or annually. You can choose to take the dividend as cash or reinvest it through buying more shares of the company. Many Americans have their investments in stocks and mutual funds and rely on dividends for their retirement or as extra income. Companies who make a profit decide on whether they want to keep the profit as retained earnings or pay out as dividends. Most companies retain a portion of the earnings and pay out the rest as dividends to its shareholders. So, if a publicly held company makes a big profit one quarter, it's likely the shareholders will be rewarded with a large dividend. Sounds like a great deal for the company and for everyone investing in the company for retirement, right?
So let's go over this scenario now. Oil companies are reporting a huge before tax profit. To any shareholder, this is music to their ears. But, to the Democrats, this is a chance to vilify the oil industry as greedy and opportunity to propose a windfall profits tax as their answer to high gas prices. The Democratic core constituent cheers this because this means the government gets more money and there's more opportunity for free handouts. But what does this mean to all of us that rely on our investments for our retirement? I sure as hell won't get social security when I retire because of the government using our social security funds for out of control pork spending. Guess what? By taxing the windfall profits of the oil companies, shareholders of the companies are going to lose those dividends and every American will see the prices at the pumps stay the same or rise if the supply and demand stays where it is now because the companies pass the tax onto the consumer.
This is classic redistribution of wealth by the government. What ever happened to free market success and capitalism? Do you know what the socialist state of Venezuela does? They take the profits from businesses through taxes or take over the business and they become state controlled. And what do they do with the taxed money? They distribute it to the people. It's socialism and it's the type of policy Barack Obama wants to enforce. This my friend is your Democratic Party and what they don't want you to know. This really good article also makes an argument against windfall profits.

Killer 80's Soundtracks
I've gotten my fair share of kick ass 80's movies this week and had to post some of the great videos. I know some of them are lame, but that's what makes them so great. If you listen closely, you can pick up the awesome 80's keyboard sound that was big from 1983-1988. After seeing the music video for The Never Ending Story for the first time in 20 or so years, I have discovered a new mullet for the mullet encylopedia, the "Keyboarder's Mullet". Notice how the outside of the mullet is dyed blonde, but underneath the party, is a very dark color... could be dark brown or black, but couldn't really tell by the quality of the video.
You're the Best by Joe Esposito from Karate Kid I
Young Hearts by Commuter from Karate Kid I with scenes from the Outsiders
Glory of Love by Peter Cetera (Former lead singer of Chicago) from Karate Kid II
The Never Ending Story by Limahl (Former lead singer of Kajagoogoo) from The Never Ending Story
Axel F by Harold Faltermeyer from Beverly Hills Cop I
The Fletch Theme by Harold Faltermeyer from Fletch
Let me know what you think of these. I couldn't help but laugh at Limahl's mullet, but that was one of my favorite movies growing up.

Read This Speech
When Obama gave some lame ass excuse this past week for not visiting wounded troops and admitted to going to work out at the gym, it pissed me off but didn't surprise me. He gave a big speech to a German crowd who was there for a free rock concert, but the mainstream media gave everyone the impression that they were there just to see Obama's speech. Wow, what a way to try to legitimize yourself with a world audience. Obama presented himself to his audience as a "fellow citizen of the world".
Obama goes on and apologizes to Germany for the United States' imperfections. What an asshole. You're going to apologize to a country that had a military dictatorship that killed 6 million jews. Freaking brilliant. Are you going to apologize to Germany for our military defeating their ruling Nazi party? How about apologizing for our military saving West Berlin from the Soviet Blockade in the late 40's? Oh wait, you didn't mention our military successes to the German people and how the past military successes have created an alliance between our two countries. You choose to abandon your American identity for your "global citizen" cause. On that note, if you're not proud enough of your country to mention it to Germany, how about running for the Secretary of the United Nations instead of President of the United States. You can have all the BS Global Warming World Redistribution of Wealth meetings and bills passed there as a global citizen, but don't count on me to pay 1 penny to a Third World Dictator to steal that money from me because of the UN's poor oversight.
Barack Obama, you may be able to speak to the waves and waves of dumb masses in the world who are star struck by your presence, but don't expect me to fall for your horrible policies and shrug off your disdain for the military and our individual freedoms. Your party's push on the behalf of the Environmental movement for a massive redistribution of wealth in higher taxation and socialist policies ultimately will fail miserably once the American public wakes up. Now that could take a while because of Government Education, but I think it's my job now to wake everyone up. But this speech can be a start. Take a few minutes to read it. This is the stuff the liberal media won't put on its' airwaves. It will change your mind about everything.

Looks of Lunacy
Over the last few days, I've actually seen a few Barack Obama bumper stickers on cars driving up and down GA400. Kind of shocking, but it's quality entertainment on a boring drive home. Getting a good look at these loons is great. These loons with the Obama for President bumper stickers want to punish the high achievers with high taxes, believe in man-made Global Warming, and think businesses who make a profit are evil. Not to mention those same loons who want the right to abort an innocent baby who hasn't even been born yet, but oppose the death penalty for someone who has murdered and ruined lives. Makes sense, huh? That my friend is the Democrat Party.

Saturday Trip to Dairy Queen
After a long day of working on the engines and drinking cold beer, we always make a pit stop at the Dairy Queen in Cumming Georgia. We create our own drive thru's and enjoy our free Dairy Queen. 20 minutes later, we are on our way down Pilgrim Mill Road on the other side of town to park the engines at Hunky's house.
It's also really cool to see the look on people's faces when they see 2 steam engines driving through downtown and one of them pulling a steam powered organ. I can read people's lips when they're stuck behind us trying to change lanes. "Damn Rednecks" takes home the trophy for the most spoken phrase from inside the car.
The Peerless with the Calliope
The Case
I'm willing to bet money we are the only people on earth that make our own drive thru at the Dairy Queen with steam engines. The funny thing is, twenty or thirty years ago, our parents were doing the same thing on the steam engines in Cumming Georgia and driving to other restaurants in town, but the City Police won't let us take drunk detours anymore. Booooo.

Typical Day at the Office
I can't say much about this other than wow. I walk downstairs and out the front door and I see this in our front island. One of our amigos was on top of the ladder with another amigo halfway down holding the ladder in place. Francisco could have been a darwin award winner if the ladder broke. But it didn't and he lived to see another day. This could possible be one of the greatest series of pictures of all time taken by myself. Note the straps were the only thing holding the ladder in place. Dawsonville is the only place on earth you would see a sight like this.

AT&T Classic
Today, a friend and I ventured to Sugarloaf in Gwinnexico for the AT&T Classic Golf Tournament. Parking at Discover Mills was alright and the little bus ride to the course wasn't too bad. I thought today was going to be a good exercise day walking that golf course. Well we end up seeing one of my friend's fraternity brothers at a big ass house overlooking #5 green and we walk up to the iron fence in the backyard and through the gate to a cornhole game and a mexican buffet with free beer and margaritas. Below is the view from the backyard party. David Toms is lining up a putt.
So thinking I was going to spend well over $50 today just on liquor and food, I end up spending only $12 on a double vodka and tonic at the clubhouse on our way out. We got to hang out with a lot of fellow drunks at a multi-million dollar house and get free alcohol and food. By the way, one of the complimentary beers I got my hands on was Sweetwater Hummer, which was surprisingly good!

Fed Ex and the Fair Tax
Today was a normal day where I went to work and did my normal routine, which sometimes includes overnighting stuff to California to one of the owners at their request. Well, I did what I normally do with overnighting something, I called the Fed Ex number to schedule a pickup. Today for some reason, it said I needed to speak to a representative instead of the automated recording. I've done this before and it normally takes about 1 minute max to confirm everything. But not today.
The nice lady on the other end of the phone (she was an American citizen who spoke English, not Mexican or Indian) tells me about printing my own labels to save 15% and saving $4 by dropping the packages at a drop box in downtown Dawsonvegas. So I was appreciative and thanked her for the tips. Well this leads to a conversation about little ways to save money here and there. She introduces herself and tells me she's from Taxachusetts. I was shocked because I couldn't tell by her accent. It was so much of a Boston accent I could barely understand her. I told her no offense, but I'm sorry she had to live in Ted Kennedy's state with the ultra liberals. I didn't know her political beliefs, but I'd imagine with her calling her state Taxachusetts, she wasn't fond of the higher taxes Democrat party. She laughed and told me about how she spends what little money she has left to save, for example, her squeaky shoes. I take it she's pretty cheap.
Yes, I called to schedule a Fed Ex pickup and 10 minutes later, I'm making the Fed Ex lady laugh and sharing our cheap ideas. I mention to her if we had the Fair Tax in place, we wouldn't be having this conversation about gas prices or high taxes. She wasn't sure what the Fair Tax was, so I told her when she had the chance later on, to check out their website at Fairtax.org. She said she'd check it out later and asked me if I needed anything else about 5 times in between me cracking her up. I told her no thanks and she told me thank you for being the best call she'd ever had. I think she was just diggin my southern accent because I'm sure they don't hear my type up in Boston that often. I do intend on visiting Fenway Park soon, so I will surely entertain the bar crowd with my genuine redneckedness. But I did possibly convert 1 person today and maybe she'll tell her friends up there in Taxachusetts.
Speaking of being a redneck in a bar full of yankees, or Red Sox fans, who are technically yankees, but will kill you if you associate them with the yankee name, the following classic by Johnny Russell would be a great tune for me to sing karaoke to. And what better way to be inducted to the Red Sox Nation than to change "white socks" to "red sox" in the song "Rednecks, White Socks, and Blue Ribbon Beer". What a way to get the blue collar northeastern crowd to yell and send cheers around the bar than this lost classic. I would make sure the bar had PBR's on hand, because that would totally kick ass if my redneck was there along with their red sox and a by-god PBR to complete the title of the song. Pure brilliance Matty...
Wow, my ADD is really showing in this post... haha

Philadelphia and French Canadians
This is actually pretty funny to me because I don't like Philly sports teams and I don't like Habitants du Quebec. What better way to piss off a Philadelphian than put a French Canadian Hab jersey on Rocky's statue. 
I'm honestly surprised there wasn't a riot at originating at Geno's Steaks. What if one of those French Canadian idiots tried to order a steak in French? I'd pay a million dollars to see Joey Vento take an order from one of those idiots and tell those bastards to read the sign that says:
Did those 2 French idiots not know the reputation of Philly fans? Hell, some guy at a Flyers game jumped over the glass at Tie Domi in the penalty box after he squirted water on him. The Philly fans are almost like the mullet nation fans as they believe they're destined to win a world championship every year, but they're different in a bigger way because Philly fans will boo their teams non-stop until they win again, a sign they're not in denial like the mullet nation. The Flyers won't win the cup and the 76'ers have no chance to win, so Philly fans, there's always the Eagles.

It's Earth Day... Time for a Rant
What a great day! This is the left wing environmental nutjob's favorite day of the year! What better way of promoting Global Warming than to have your own day. Remember, it was almost 40 years ago that we were heading towards a so-called "crisis" of Global Cooling and Earth Day had just caught on. But now we have Global Warming and it's caused by the evil rich nations and capitalism. It's caused by the rich people driving their SUV's and polluting the Earth's air. This in turn causes the poor nations to get even poorer and they're having to breathe the greedy rich nation's dirty air and will also suffer from the massive rise in sea levels caused by Global Warming. Therefore, the United Nations should get involved and levy a Global Carbon Tax and tax those evil rich nations. Barack Obama and the Democrats think so!
Does any intelligent person believe this crap? I guess if you're a Marxist like Obama, you believe this is the right thing to do because you're the champion of the poor, right? You will never get a penny out of me. My ass will be out of this country in a second if they pass this BS of a bill. I don't work so my money is taken from me and given to some poor person 10,000 miles away living in a grass hut. If I choose to donate money for a charity that helps them, then I will, but I will not let some government bureaucracy take my tax dollars and give it to some oppressive dictator who will pocket every penny for his palace. Remember what happened with the UN Oil for Food Program in Iraq in the 1990s?
The whole global warming thing is just a push for redistribution of wealth by the anti-capitalists and anti-west loons. Most of these people are hypocrites. Just look at Al Gore and his private jet trips all over the world, yet he is preaching that we all stop driving and start walking everywhere. Not to mention his Inconvenient Lie he told with that crap movie. He forgot to mention the footage of the ice sheets breaking up in the Arctic in his crap movie was actually a clip from the movie "The Day After Tomorrow" and the ice breaking was actually styrofoam in a tub of water. What he also doesn't tell you is that humans contribute just a small percentage of the CO2 that goes into the atmosphere. He also doesn't tell you that methane is a more potent greehouse gas and its main source is natural. He said in a hearing that natural CO2 is heavier than man-made CO2. This should further show the incompetance of this idiot and invalidate anything he says from now on. Why should you believe anything scientific spoken from a politician's mouth anyways? I would think credible people like scientists from their field of study should be the only credible sources of information. Can you believe the European Union has a Global Warming Manager? Here's a letter written to the manager from a concerned resident in France. I'm posing a question to you left wing Darwin folks. If you believe in evolution, shouldn't animals, plants, and humans be able to evolve and survive Global Warming or Global Cooling as we have for millions of years? We've had many more drastic changes in climate than our few degrees in temperature change over the past few hundred years.
My Earth Day contribution to the environment will be the largest carbon footprint possible. I'm going to drive more than I should in my big gas guzzling truck and hopefully burn something in the yard when I get home. I wish everyone would fire up the steam engines at the Cumming Fairgrounds, but we'll have to wait until the 4th of July for that. I don't have a private jet, so I can't fly somewhere on my own, but I would if I could. Don't let these left wing loons brainwash you like they are in our government schools. You have no option to think for yourself in government schools because they tell you Global Warming is a fact. Just like they tell you that we have a national right to vote, which we don't. Just like they tell you the United States is a democracy, which is wrong. We're a republic. Always be searching for facts and both sides of any story. It will make you smarter and better informed as well as allowing you to make an educated decision. As for you liberals, you adhere to an emotional based philosophy, which cannot be reasoned with fact, so therefore, you are already lost.

Hockey Night in Canada

I was watching Hockey Night in Canada on Saturday night and I was thinking that I should share some things I've picked up watching hockey over the years. My fellow southerners should take note of the following list that I will provide if you intend on traveling to Canada or if you're going to have a conversation with a Canadian. If you plan on playing a sport against a Canadian, this could be helpful as well. There are many Canadians playing sports other than hockey. Steve Nash plays basketball. Mike Weir plays golf. Russell Martin plays baseball. Mike Vanderjagt plays football. Chris Jericho, Bret Hart, Owen Hart, and Chris Benoit wrestle. Make sure if you befriend a Canadian or take part in viewing Hockey Night in Canada, have one of these Don Cherry Edition Molson Bubba's on hand to bring a Canadian atmosphere to your home.
Below are common pronunciations of English words with a Canadian accent. I myself use this accent when talking hockey or speaking to a Canadian. If I use my southern accent, I could get a strange look and our friendly northern neighbors feel lost. The word on the left is the actual spelling of the word and the word on the right is the incorrect spelling of the word spelled to how it is pronounced with a Canadian accent.
About = A-boot
Against = A-gay-nst
At all = A-tall
Both = Bolth
Couch or Sofa = Chesterfield
1 Dollar = Loonie
2 Dollars = Toonie
Goal = Gull
Know = Noh
No = Nuh
Now = Naw
Out = Ewwwt
Outside = Ewwwtside
Power = Parer
Roof - Ruff
Take = Teck
Right? Correct? Huh? = Eh?
If this is still a bit difficult to understand my translations, take a few minutes to watch the following video of the Coach's Corner on Hockey Night in Canada talking hockey and fighting. Listen closely because they say some of the words I have translated.

Great Movie, Great Line

Dazed and Confused is one of the greatest movies of all time, with what I think is one of the greatest lines out of any movie. Wooderson (Matthew McConaughey) is hanging out in front of the Emporium with some friends and drops one of his bad ass observations while having his cigarettes rolled up in his sleeve and wearing pink pants.
He says, "That's what I love about these high school girls, man. I get older, they stay the same age."
Ahh, so freakin classic...

The Mullet
After many hours of research, I've finally published the Mullet Encyclopedia according to Matty.
It's titled, Ode to the Mullet... The Mullet Encyclopedia.
It's a basic introduction to the mullet and I know I missed a few styles. If you have a mullet that you would like me to research, let me know and I'll get right on it. Also, let me know which is your favorite mullet!
Beware of the Mullet... Click at your own risk!!!!

Tax Day Tuesday April 15, 2008
Let me start off with a quote by the late great Ronald Reagan...
Republicans believe every day is the Fourth of July, but the Democrats believe every day is April 15.
Millions of Americans filed their taxes today on the deadline. I'm wondering why do so many Americans wait until the last second to file? Could it be that the tax code is too difficult for an average American to interpret? Could it be that many Americans have to pay the IRS even more money and are waiting until the last second to hang onto that money they worked so hard for?
Think about what it would be like if April 15 was just another day at the office and had no significance other than just another day. What if all the money you earned today went straight into your pocket without any taxes being taken out. If the Fair Tax was in place, every penny you worked for, you would actually earn. Can you imagine what hell a politician would catch if we were on the Fair Tax and he tried to pass an amendment to the Constitution for the current tax code? Chapter 13 of Fair Tax, The Truth: Answering the Critics by John Linder and Neal Boortz goes into detail of this scenario. You won't believe how much the government is taking from us to make the politicians more powerful.
Today was the Democrat's favorite day of the year along with the big government supporters. I urge all rich liberals who think the rich should pay more in taxes, to write a check to the US Treasury for whatever percentage you believe the rich should be taxed. Something so simple was really confusing to the liberals so Congressman John Campbell of California introduced an act called "Put your Money Where your Mouth is". This act will create a line on the 1040 form that allows you to write in a dollar amount to pay the government. Now it's really simplified for you left wing loons that think you should pay higher taxes because you're not taxed enough. This data shows the wealthy in America already pay the majority of income tax.

City of Atlanta Anthem
I'm not a fan of rap at all, but I have to say this song is pure genius by these gentlemen. If you are a Regular Guys listener, you know this song but may not have seen the video.
I think this song should be played at the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce as a public service announcement to introduce people to our mass transit system in Atlanta. I myself have had memorable experiences in a MARTA bus and the MARTA train. For those of you who don't ride MARTA but plan to in the near future, don't pay with a $20 bill because the change machine will spit out 15 or 16 silver dollars and it gets really annoying walking around with that much change in your pocket. I tend to drink alot at sporting events in Atlanta and I give away the dollar coins to the fellow drunks who are homeless.
If you're going to a hockey game or football game downtown and are coming from the northern suburbs, I recommend parking at North Springs and taking the train to Phillips or the Dome. It gives you plenty of time to sober up on the train ride back to your car. Make sure if you have been drinking, stay away from the tracks because I have seen a poor drunk hockey fan fall onto the tracks when a train was approaching. It really pissed the MARTA police off and was funny at the same time. I hope this was useful in choosing your next MARTA experience and remember, don't feel ashamed to tell someone, "Bitch, you do not ride with me, Bitch you ride da MARTA bus!"

Wacky Weather Caused by Global Warming
About an hour ago, I walked out of my office and out to my truck to get something, and it started snowing. It's Monday April 14 and it's snowing in North Georgia. I do work up in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains where everyone makes moonshine and Pointer brand overalls are fashionable, but that's still crazy. On Friday, April 11, it was 88 degrees at my house when I got home from work. We're definitely experiencing global warming aren't we Al Gore? I'm going to give you a good carbon footprint today on my way home by layin a little rubber on GA400. Anyone have any other suggestions on how I can leave a carbon footprint in Al Gore's honor?

Dinner Tips
Ladies,
If you're cooking for your man and happen to screw everything up because the kids are running wild, you have an important phone call, or you're just not a good cook, your man will understand.

This guy below, who happens to be one of the greatest NASCAR drivers of all time, drinks Schlitz after a long day at the racetrack with his buddies on the front porch. Take note of the mullet (or Kentucky mudflap depending on which part of the country you're from). Many of you might agree that Tony Stewart has that long hair to cover up that red neck of his.
I also have to give a shout out to the Hottnanny, who got me to do this. She digs American Idol, so if you have any interest in that show, you should really read her blogs HERE. She's one of those super cool chicks too, so even if you don't like American Idol, you should read her blog. I think she should get promoted to Hotttnanny because she likes hockey. Any Hotttnanny who digs hockey and speaks of hockey in her blogs should have 3 t's because the hotness grows exponentially.

Government, Entitlements, and Democrats
(From a blog I wrote on January 28, 2008)
I was watching the state of the union address tonight and curious to see what the president would be saying to the members of congress as he exited, I saw and heard a comment from a republican representative directed towards the president. He said something to the effect of "To get a rebate, you gotta put in the bait." The president turned around and laughed and pointed over his shoulder like check this guy out. I agree 100% with that line. This damn stimulus package congress is about to pass is purely a mass redistribution of wealth. It's also an election year, so it's a perfect time for any incumbent running for office to say "I helped put that check in your hands". Pretty smart politically on their part, huh?
I'm sick and tired of this shit. I disagree 100% with this stimulus package aimed to jump start the economy. All of the underachievers in this country who don't pay taxes will receive a check, depending on their family size. Your money and my money will be going to some deadbeat on welfare that lives off the government. They don't pay a penny in taxes, but will receive a check from the government, which is intended for spending on certain necessities or paying off some debt. I guarantee you that the low achievers who leech off the government will put their checks to good use. How bout a carton of cigarettes, beer, or lottery tickets? Or better yet, some drugs? The democrats are loving this because this is a way to get more money from the "evil" rich and give it to the "less fortunate", but in a way that it doesn't raise taxes at the surface. I'm going to be very insensitive, but i don't give a rats ass. I'm going to work to change things in the near future and my tax money isn't going to some deadbeat with 10 kids with no job. It's not my fault they had 10 kids they couldn't afford and it's not my fault they quit school and didn't go to college. Get over it. Go to work and support yourself and your kids.
Most of these people believe they're entitled to everything from housing to money to health insurance. You're not. Nowhere in the constitution does it say the government is required to provide housing, money, or health insurance. We're moving in a direction to where our citizens believe the government should take care of us. They believe if we make a financial mistake, the government should be there to bail us out. The government should stay out of our lives. Take some accountability for your actions. This mortgage crisis for example. I'm point blank blaming the democrats and the people who received a mortgage they couldn't afford. Going back a few years ago, democrats and the race pimps like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton were pushing the private mortgage and banking industry to give loans and mortgages to people with bad credit, which for the most part were minorities and the underachievers. You can even go back to the dreadful Carter administration when they passed the Community Reinvestment Act in 1977. Oh how wonderful, these people are going to get a new car or a new house and give that crucial vote to their democratic representative. And look what happens when the adjustable rate mortgage jumps and you have to start paying back principal and interest. Oops. You didn't have a lawyer to read the closing documents and you are in big trouble because you can't afford your big house now. It's time to blame someone now. Who can we blame? Who's going to take responsibility for this mess?
Blame yourself and blame the democrats. Don't blame the banks or the mortgage companies. They were forced in the beginning to accommodate your needs or they were going to be faced with boycotts and discrimination suits. Now you're shit out of luck and now you want the government to bail you out. Tough shit. The government doesn't owe you anything. Our founding fathers didn't intend for the government to be a nanny government to take care of us. Unfortunately, government schools are teaching kids that government is the answer to every problem in our lives.
Government is not the answer. Government should never be the answer. How would you feel is government HAD to be the answer? How would it feel with no freedoms to make your own mistakes and learn from them? How would it feel not to achieve anything in your life because you wouldn't have to because government would give you enough just to get by? How would it feel to go to the doctor that the government assigned to you along with everyone in your town or county and you had to take a number? Wouldn't it feel great to see the government use its police power to take that over achiever's money from down the street? He worked hard his whole life for that wealth, but he's greedy and evil because he has more money than you. He's one of the last millionaires holding out from paying massive taxes on the rich. You could never achieve that wealth because the government says you don't need that much money to function in a single class society. The government takes over all privately run businesses and turn them into state run businesses. Everything is being done for the "common good".
How does that America sound? That is the America in the eyes of the democrats. It's socialism. They won't admit it, but that's exactly what it is. They use words like "national" and "universal". Of course, their uneducated democratic constituents don't know the difference, but it sounds great to them. And yes, they're largely uneducated. It's a fact that a large part of Hillary Clinton supporters are the uneducated. In their eyes, it's "what can the government do for me?" Is that what Americans should be asking? Is that what the founding fathers were asking King George before they declared independence from England? I don't think so.

The Angry White Man
The Angry White Man
By Gary Hubbell The Aspen Times
"There is a great amount of interest in this year’s presidential elections, as everybody seems to recognize that our next president has to be a lot better than George Bush.
The Democrats are riding high with two groundbreaking candidates — a woman and an African-American — while the conservative Republicans are in a quandary about their party’s nod to a quasi-liberal maverick, John McCain.
Each candidate is carefully pandering to a smorgasbord of special-interest groups, ranging from gay, lesbian and transgender people to children of illegal immigrants to working mothers to evangelical Christians.
There is one group no one has recognized, and it is the group that will decide the election: the Angry White Man. The Angry White Man comes from all economic backgrounds, from dirt-poor to filthy rich. He represents all geographic areas in America, from urban sophisticate to rural redneck, deep South to mountain West, left Coast to Eastern Seaboard.
His common traits are that he isn’t looking for anything from anyone — just the promise to be able to make his own way on a level playing field. In many cases, he is an independent businessman and employs several people. He pays more than his share of taxes and works hard.
The victimhood syndrome buzzwords — “disenfranchised,” “marginalized” and “voiceless” — don’t resonate with him. “Press ‘one’ for English” is a curse-word to him. He’s used to picking up the tab, whether it’s the company Christmas party, three sets of braces, three college educations or a beautiful wedding.
He believes the Constitution is to be interpreted literally, not as a “living document” open to the whims and vagaries of a panel of judges who have never worked an honest day in their lives. The Angry White Man owns firearms, and he’s willing to pick up a gun to defend his home and his country. He is willing to lay down his life to defend the freedom and safety of others, and the thought of killing someone who needs killing really doesn’t bother him.
The Angry White Man is not a metrosexual, a homosexual or a victim. Nobody like him drowned in Hurricane Katrina — he got his people together and got the hell out, then went back in to rescue those too helpless and stupid to help themselves, often as a police officer, a National Guard soldier or a volunteer firefighter.
His last name and religion don’t matter. His background might be Italian, English, Polish, German, Slavic, Irish, or Russian, and he might have Cherokee, Mexican, or Puerto Rican mixed in, but he considers himself a white American.
He’s a man’s man, the kind of guy who likes to play poker, watch football, hunt white-tailed deer, call turkeys, play golf, spend a few bucks at a strip club once in a blue moon, change his own oil and build things. He coaches baseball, soccer and football teams and doesn’t ask for a penny. He’s the kind of guy who can put an addition on his house with a couple of friends, drill an oil well, weld a new bumper for his truck, design a factory and publish books. He can fill a train with 100,000 tons of coal and get it to the power plant on time so that you keep the lights on and never know what it took to flip that light switch.
Women either love him or hate him, but they know he’s a man, not a dishrag. If they’re looking for someone to walk all over, they’ve got the wrong guy. He stands up straight, opens doors for women and says “Yes, sir” and “No, ma’am.”He might be a Republican and he might be a Democrat; he might be a Libertarian or a Green. He knows that his wife is more emotional than rational, and he guides the family in a rational manner.
He’s not a racist, but he is annoyed and disappointed when people of certain backgrounds exhibit behavior that typifies the worst stereotypes of their race. He’s willing to give everybody a fair chance if they work hard, play by the rules and learn English.
Most important, the Angry White Man is pissed off. When his job site becomes flooded with illegal workers who don’t pay taxes and his wages drop like a stone, he gets righteously angry. When his job gets shipped overseas, and he has to speak to some incomprehensible idiot in India for tech support, he simmers. When Al Sharpton comes on TV, leading some rally for reparations for slavery or some such nonsense, he bites his tongue and he remembers. When a child gets charged with carrying a concealed weapon for mistakenly bringing a penknife to school, he takes note of who the local idiots are in education and law enforcement.
He also votes, and the Angry White Man loathes Hillary Clinton. Her voice reminds him of a shovel scraping a rock. He recoils at the mere sight of her on television. Her very image disgusts him, and he cannot fathom why anyone would want her as their leader. It’s not that she is a woman. It’s that she is who she is. It’s the liberal victim groups she panders to, the “poor me” attitude that she represents, her inability to give a straight answer to an honest question, his tax dollars that she wants to give to people who refuse to do anything for themselves.
There are many millions of Angry White Men. Four million Angry White Men are members of the National Rifle Association, and all of them will vote against Hillary Clinton, just as the great majority of them voted for George Bush.
He hopes that she will be the Democratic nominee for president in 2008, and he will make sure that she gets beaten like a drum."
__________________________________________________________
I had to post that as my first blog. It's the perfect description of how I feel as the most discriminated American, the single white christian conservative male. I'm pissed off at what this country has become. Most people are concerned with Hollywood stars and their screwups than what's happening with our government. And that's music to the Democrat's ears.
Just because I don't have the time right this second to go into this more, I'll write more a little later. Our country isn't great because of our government. It's great because of our freedoms and capitalism. The founding fathers are rolling in their graves right now because of our current tax system and the young generation of Americans being brainwashed by the government schools and the notion that government is the answer to everyone's problems. Although I was educated in government schools, I was put in special classes for the gifted and didn't have to listen to the "you have to share with your fellow classmates" and "class, we have to make sure everyone understands before we move on". And don't forget the political correctness that is totally ridiculous. Offending someone is a big deal now, but I honestly don't care who I offend. I'm one of those equal opportunity offenders and you can kiss my ass if you think something I write or say is offensive. But anyways, I am the angry white man and it's time for me to go.
