Crazy Talk & Common Sense Politics

Are the Democrats in Junior High?

The DNC cannot be serious about the attacks they are unleashing on Rush Limbaugh. First they put up a fake letter "apologizing" to Limbaugh that you could sign as various Republican leaders. Now they are going to put up an anti-Limbaugh billboard in Rush's hometown? This is ludicrous! At the same time the DNC is telling all of us that we are in the biggest economic crisis since the Great Depression they are spending their time and money on attacking a private citizen.

With the thousands of dollars they are spending attacking Rush they could help a few hundred people that have recently lost a job because of the absolute incompetence of the Obama administration. They "care" about the people so much but they would rather attack Rush Limbaugh than actually engage in any debate on the issues or fix the huge problems our country is facing. This childish behavior is sickening - I only hope I'm not the only one who feels this way.

Why I like President Obama?

Fist of all let me clarify something. I do not like President Obama, I did not vote for him nor would I ever vote for him. Okay now that I got that off my chest. I was just informed about a college student that was told to write for a graded assignment why he likes President Obama, and what he thinks he will do good for the country. This is wrong in so many ways I don't even know where to begin.

1) Isn't college about teaching students to form their own opinions, to think critically and for themselves? Apparently not anymore.

2) A Professor pressing their views on young impressionable students is so ridiculously unethical it could be in one of those cheesy ethics videos your forced to watch at work. IF a teacher states their view let it be a starting point for discussion, not an ending point for an assignment.

3) I'm sure this Professor like many is tenured and couldn't be fired even if there was good reason for it. Teachers should be able to lose their jobs if they are bad at it just like all of us in the real world.

"Academia" needs to take a good long look in the mirror and "hope" for a "change" like the candidate for President their union supported so vigorously.

I may be going insane?!

There are a few reasons why I created this blog; one reason is just for the hell of it, another reason is to keep my sanity by having an outlet for my frustration with politics, the last reason is to keep my wife's sanity so she no longer has to listen to me rant and rave. She will now have a choice to listen to my bitching and moaning and so will you. Read what I have to say if you want, leave me mean comments if you want - it’s up to you. After all, we still have more freedom than any country in the world, at least for the time being. :)
