Random Ramblings

Well the Health Care bill made it through the house. It's disappointing but not surprising. The debate in the senate is shaping up to be a tough battle. Everyone who is opposed to this should be emailing and calling their representatives. I have a liberal cousin who told me that blogs are meant to be written but not read so I am probably writing this for myself but I don't really care. I'm calling and emailing and if anyone is reading this, well then do the same.

If this passes the senate, it will be signed into law by Barry O and then the sky is the limit for what the left will do to our liberties. However, if you want to try to see a silver lining in this dark cloud, I think there is one. Despite the protests, the demonstrations and the polls showing that only 30% of the American people are for this, our great leader, in his infinite wisdom, along with his socialist hangers on and the libs in congress are pushing this through. In my opinion, all things considered, it stands to reason that there are going to be plenty of democratic seats moving into the Republican/Conservative column next year, in both chambers. I just hope and pray that it is not too little, too late.

Did anyone see Obama's press conference following the Islamic terrorist attack at Ft. Hood? He walked to the podium and proceeded to rave about some conference that was held that day, even giving a "shout out" to someone in the audience. I kept waiting, then FINALLY, maybe 2 minutes after starting, maybe just 30 seconds, I can't say for certain, he mentioned the tragedy and asked that we keep the victims and their families in our thoughts and prayers. I don't know about you but I think that was TACKY, TACKY, TACKY. The attack at Ft. Hood should have been the topic that he OPENED with. Seriously? You want to give a shout out to someone first, Mr. Obama?

It is the twentieth anniversary of the fall of the Berlin wall. Why does Obama not think this is worthy to attend? It was a major blow to communism. I can't imagine why he would dismiss this. Well, yes I can, but I'm sure I'm just being paranoid. But then again, technically, I guess there are differences between communism and socialism so I'm sure you can abhor one and embrace the other. Still, it's a curious decision on his part. Just sayin'.

Now it's time to bash the right wing. Sitting here in Pensacola, we're waiting on a very late season tropical storm to make landfall sometime in the morning. This has to be related to "Global Warming", no? Although, I think the politically correct term now is "Climate Change", which will probably hold until we have a few really bad winters, then we'll be facing a "New Global Ice Age". If only Al Gore had won in 2000, this would be a non-issue, I'm certain of it.

How 'bout them Cowboys.
