Bode Miller needs to quit crying

Bode Miller is a name that I really didn't know up until 10 minutes ago. I am probably not alone. One I had heard of was a US skier that was supposed to go to the Winter Olympics this past year and tear all over the slopes with gold medals out his ass. Another thing I had heard was that this supposedly great skier had lost ever event he took place in. Evidently Mr. Miller is that guy. And now he's bitching about the perception that the media gave him.........................Ok dumbass. Listen carefully. Without the media we would not have a perception of you because without them we would have never heard of your losing ass! Before you lost all your events, you weren't bitching about how the media was telling the world you were gonna whip some ass were you? No! You were eating it up. Cashing in no doubt. Now that you FAILED to meet ANY expectations your all pissed because supposedly our hopes were up too high. Well I got news for you buddy. My hopes were kind of nil anyway due to the fact that along with 97 percent of America, downhill skiing is not really my bag. For all of these idiots that say that representing their country is the greatest thing about the olympics let me ask you a question? If that is the best thing then why the hell do they keep track of the scores? Why is it that during the olympics the first news of the day is, "How many medals have we won?" Why is it that the gold medal winner hears his national anthem and sits higher than the other two olympians? I'll give you a hint. BECAUSE AMERICANS LOVE TO SEE AMERICA WIN! WE WANT WINNERS! NOT JACKASSES THAT TRY REEWY HAWD! You went to the olympics as a favorite to win some medals. If you didn't expect to win the why the fuck did you go? You went. You lost. Deal with it. Don't expect us to listen to you cry.

No matter how much you hate it, flag burning should not be banned

Seems like republicans are masters of the obvious. They love to make Democrats take stands on issues that amounts to a hill of beans. The pledge of allegiance having "God" in it. Flag burning. In God We Trust on money. The war on Christmas. Gay marriage. Haven't we picked up on this yet? This is exactly the reason that I believe that we as Americans are the dumbest people on the planet. While our deficit skyrockets, while our skys burn, while our countrymen are dying in Iraq, what we choose to define our leadership is not leadership but pointless BULLSHIT! The moral majority are morons! First of all let me just say that burning the flag is discraceful, but then again so is the fact that more people vote in American Idol than in the presidential election. I see all these old men talking about how they were at DDay and people shouldn't burn the symbol they fought for. While the guy has a point, he also has to realize that he took an oath to defend the Constitution of the United States, not the flag, and in that constitution, it guarantees the right to free speech. As was so eloquently states so many years ago. "I may not agree with what a man says, but I will defend to the death his right to say it." That same right is the same right that the Christian majority in this country uses to proclaim it is being persecuted every Christmas. That same right allows Neil Bortz to say that in Hurricane Katrina the poor deserved to be left behind to allow for the rescueing of the richer folk. That same right, allows Pat Robertson to advocate murdering a world leader, or Bill Oreilly to say San Francisco should be allowed to be attacked by terrorists. All reprehensible statements that probably pissed some people off. Statments that I do not agree with but statements that I am forced to live with due to our constitution. You see, republicans can't stand not having anything out of their reach. They will stop at nothing evidently to control what you do in your homes, whats in your mind, and peeking at your bank records and emails. Dont they have anything else to do? Like say RUN THE FUCKING COUNTRY!?

Who the hell is John Stosell all of a sudden?

I just saw a piece on Scarboro Country with John Stosell on Global Warming. First the guy tells us that it's all a sham. That it all comes from anti capitalist unpatriotic leftist idiots. Then a guy comes on that is evidently an expert on global warming. He cites a study by the national acadamy of sciences that says that we are warmer in the last 25 years than we have been in the last 400 years of recording temperatures. Now the national acadamy of sciences was appointed by congress to do this study. They are pretty much the smartest minds on the planet. This is the most complete study ever done on Global Warming. They guy then said that we need to start reducing our emissions immediately. He said we need to stop the corporate wellfare for the oil and coal industries and re invest that money in mass transit, renewable resources, alternative fuels. Mr. Stosell said it won't make a difference. What the hell does he know?! He's a fucking journalist! That certainly does not qualify him as an expert on anything other than being able to use spell check and have an opinion. Mr. Scarboro then says what difference does it make if the western world stops using these fossil fuels. China and India will continue to use. Then Mr. Stossel added, "Would you like it if gas were $10 a gallon?" The guy hits them with what is equivalent to a verbal right cross. "We as Americans make up 5 percent of the worlds population, and account for 25% of the worlds carbon dioxide emissions. China with over a billion people makes up 14%" In other words.......YOU BET YOUR ASS IT WOULD MAKE A DIFFERENCE! The environmentalist tells us that we have to work together to solve the worlds problem of global warming. Mr Stossel actually says, "Sounds like Socialism to me!" WTF?! That's when the environmentalist guy was pretty much cut off. Giving Mr. Stossel the last word, we find out why the jackass is even here. He calls the guy "anti capitalism" and tells us about his new book. Number one, why the hell anyone would listen to John Stossel on issues concerning the environment is beyond me. I guess the same people that believe that Rush Limbaugh has any business speaking on the subject will listen to this asshole. Mr. Stossel made his living making sure the Uhaul company and VCR repairmen didn't rip us off. He talked about how Al Gore just wants us to be afraid. Christ man, what the fuck has Bush been doing for the last 6 years! He traffics in fear! That's Bushs only true talent! Keeping us stupid ass Americans afraid! What Mr. Stossel did for years was make us believe that noone was to be trusted. Well why the hell would I trust his lying ass?

Bush decides to tell Iraq to screw itself

A day after the Iraqi government called for an orchestration of a US pullout, Mr. Bush informs us that he is once again the "Decider". HE will decide when freedom has been delivered to Iraq. HE will decide when we will pull out, or as his dickhead pundents like to call it, Cut and Run. They have demonized an Iraq pullout so vehemently, that now that the Iraqi government is saying it's time for us to get the fuck out, they have to temper it by trying to make it look like its Bushs idea. I'm here to tell you. Even if Iraq becomes a paradise. If Mickey Mouse is elected president there. Even if Iraq becomes the jewel of the middle east. This effort will have not been worth it. It was a pointless diversion that has taken this country so far off course, we will be lucky if we can regain our lost ground within the next decade. Close to 3000 lives lost. Tens of thousands wounded. Billions wasted. Lives destroyed. Reputations tarnished. Time gone forever. Priorities ignored. And that is just the American cost. The Iraqi cost has been far greater. I have been saying this since the war began. A country fights a war for personal gain. War has a downside, that has to be justified by a tremendous upside. World War Two? HUGE upside. Korea..........Marginal Upside. Vietnam? Little to no upside. Same thing in Iraq. The upside is nill. The downside is more like a cliff.

Nichol Kidman Most Beautiful?!

On all the fucking lists of the most beautiful women of the world, Nichol Kidman always seems to land her pasty ass near the top. WTF?! While shes not puke inducing to look at, she sure as hell is nowhere near one of the most 100 beautiful women in the world. To tell you the truth, most, if not all, of the women that make the lists, shouldn't be on it anyway. You go to a 7-11 at 3 in the morning every once and a while, or the market, or the bank, or whereever, and you see a vision of a woman that puts most of the chicks on the top 100 list to shame. This women does not have the benefit of 24/7 hairdressers, and thousands upon thousands of dollars in reconstructive surgery. Tyra Banks made the list, of course, and she came on her show without makeup the other night. Bitch looked like Erckle. I am not shitting you, she was one butt ass ugly bitch. Now the woman has an uncommonly kick ass body, but I'm not so sure how much of it is real and how much of it is Memorex, if you know what I'm saying. Beauty is common for the most part in women. As long as she isn't fat, most chicks can pull of being relativly hot. Even some bigger chicks can pull of being pretty hot. I saw some chick last evening on a crotch rocket that was bigger than I usually like but she looked good on that bike. The thing that makes them the most beautiful is the fact that they have money, power, fame, and attitude. Looks are secondary evidently because some of those that made the list are ugly ass bitches.

Israelies are losing themselves

It seems about every day you hear about the Israelies blowing up a car with suspected terrorists inside. Invariably there are a bunch of kids with them. Not only that but the people that are around them on the streets who had nothing to do with anything, are also killed in the resulting explosion. This is no way to win the peace. In fact, it is just perpetuating the violence.

Guys in Iraq need to realize who they are dealing with

The heartbreaking story of the two guys that went MIA the other day came to a head finally. Evidently they were tortured "barbaricly" what ever the hell that means. I mean touture by definition is barbaric no matter what it is. Whether you are holding someones head under water, or pounding nails through their fingertips, the fact does not change that the person being tortured, does not know their fate. Reading about the prison camps in Nazi Germany, the captives said that the most soul crushing aspect of captivity was the uncertainty. The not knowing when your time would come. Thankfully for those two guys in Iraq that time came relatively swiftly. I doubt they spent one second of last week with any kind of respite from misery. Their families are in agony. To know that my sons life ended in such a way would haunt me the rest of my days. This is one reason that my son or daughter will NEVER join the Army, or Marines. Yeah yeah yeah, you can talk shit all you want about my child should be allowed to do what they want, but my duty as a parent is to protect my child and he/she will never enter into a service that would leave them isolated in a hostile area with no support from their fellows. At least in the Navy, for the most part you are on a ship killing the enemy. Yeah it's dangerous, but there are hospitals on the boats, and as far as I have heard, no terrorists. I pray for these guys families peace. I hope in time they find it. As far as the rest of the guys over in Iraq, they need to remember who they are dealing with. I would think it would be far better if a person were to know they were going to be captured to save the last bullet for themselves. This is probably harder than it sounds.............and it sounds pretty hard, but in the whole scheme of things I would rather be dead whilst being skinned.

Are they that stupid?

I have listened to the right wing talking heads go on and on about how neat it was that Canadian police were able to sit in on chat rooms, find a terrorist cell, and launch a massive sting that saved the free world. Color me unimpressed. Number one, what is going on in Canada is a little different. They were in some kind of Jihadist Chat Room. What the Anne Coulters, and Laura Ingrams of the world want, is for police/government to be able to access anything, at any time, in your private life, for their own uses, whether you are a criminal or not. If you go into a Jihadist Chat room I would suspect that you would probably looking for Jihadists. That, in my opinion is ok. If cops want to listen in on a some sicko child molesters chat room, then by all means! What they found was 17 kids. Most of them full of shit. They were not part of some terrorist cell. They had no bankroll. They were not Al Qaida. They were punks. Deserving of being arrested. Were they going to blow something up? Evidently, because they ordered some fertilizer.................THREE FUCKING TONS OF IT! These guys practically gift wrapped themselves for the cops. They tell people what they are going to do, then they order 3 tons of fertilizer thinking noone is going to notice that even though he isnt a farmer, he needs 3 tons of fertilizer. Come on. These guys needed to be stopped. There is no question. What scares me is that while these idiots were bumping into walls, some guy was probably buying nuke triggers from Khazakstan. The terrorists we have to worry about are the smart ones. You can't know where every retarded loose cannon is going to pop up next. You can make a safe bet, however, that the real terrorists, that can do real damage, are somewhere bidding their time. While Bush is jacking around trying to legalize 20 million more social security dependents, he leaves the border naked. While Bush is trying to ban homos from getting married, terrorists plan their next attack. While Bush rams his buddies tax cuts through, we get one day closer to the day we get hit. And he continues to do nothing about it. These guys up in Canada were small fish in an isolated pond. The right wing pundents need to put this in context. I mean its not nearly as important as killing Al Qaidas number two man for the 14th time.
