It’s happening!!</title><content type='html'>Pack your bags and get out now!!! Get out of this socialist country!!!! They are coming for you!!!!! They are coming for you now!!!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, I was researching a family trip to the Grand Canyon in Google Earth when I noticed hundreds of FEMA camps being built in Arizona. It all makes sense now. Both Barack Hussein Obama and John Sidney McCain were supposedly out there enjoying the scenery.  Horse shit! They are in cahoots!! Filthy Kenyan bastards!!! That’s right, McCain is also a Kenyan!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;McCain’s father was an admiral and fought in WWII, but was captured by the Japanese, transferred to Germany for intelligence and indoctrinated by the Nazis. He then fought alongside Rommel in North Africa before being captured by the British. It was during his time with Rommel that he fathered John Sidney McCain with an African woman working in Tunisia – a Kenyan woman. He was then deprogrammed and stormed Berlin near the end of the war only to be befriended by Marshal Zhukov where he was reprogrammed with socialist ideals. After the war, he went back to Tunisia only to learn that his mistress had gone back to Kenya and birthed his son. Several years later the father claimed his son and worked with the KGB to forge a birth certificate. However, the KGB had yet to install their sleepers in the continental United States, so the best they could do was doctor a “certificate of live birth” from a military installation in the Panama Canal Zone. John Sidney McCain has NEVER produced a birth certificate when asked to! He’s only ever shown a certificate of live birth!! The same as Barack Hussein Obama!!! This is also why McCain’s son is black. He’s not an illegitimate son. It’s just that the McCain family now carries a recessive Negro gene that can skip generations. This isn’t important though, the important thing to know is that McCain is a sleeper and has been activated by Putin.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The FEMA camps are part of the government health plan written by the Russian FSB. The government plans to use its death panels to send old people and Christians to the camps where they will be rendered into bio-fuels. This is how Obama plans to balance the budget and meet his obligations under the Kyoto Protocol which itself was only written to keep the United States from defaulting on its debt to China since Russia needs a stable China along its borders to make sure Chinese don’t illegally immigrate to Russia. That’s about the only thing I can respect Russia for: Keeping the foreigners out! But, I’m not about to be rendered for that cause!! NO!!! The United States should be rendering Russians to keep the goddamned Mexicans out!!!! This can’t happen while McCain is a shadow vice president and Obama is hell bent on the National Socialist agenda of the 1930’s.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The only thing between us and the fuel tank of a Toyota Prius is the private insurance companies! The insurance companies are run by American entrepreneurs!!  This is why the government is bringing all kinds of “fraud” charges against these American heroes – to try and silence them!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But, as heroic as the insurance CEO’s are, I believe it is too late. I believe health care reform is coming and coming fast. You just need to count the number of hybrids you see in a day to know that life as we know it is over. It’s morning in America – and it’s raining men. Dead men from the rendering factories.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Get out while you still can!!!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35219168-1125911985312789400?l=fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/feeds/1125911985312789400/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35219168&amp;postID=1125911985312789400' title='20 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/1125911985312789400'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/1125911985312789400'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/2009/08/omfg-its-happening.html' title='OMFG!

This is a testament to my in depth analysis and a moral clarity that rivals America’s founding fathers’ unfaltering mission to cleanse this nation of the heathens that defiled this great land before their arrival.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It seems all my hard work has been for naught as our Republican nominee is John McCain. This man is a snake disguised as a wolf. Oh dear Lord how he rubs me raw. About the only good thing the man has done was put his wife in her place. Otherwise, he flip-flops more than a trout out of water raging on methamphetamine. First he’s against drilling for oil, &lt;a href="http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/06/18/politics/politico/thecrypt/main4190852.shtml"&gt;now he’s for it&lt;/a&gt;. First &lt;a href="http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/opinion/hongop.shtml"&gt;he’s against the gooks&lt;/a&gt;, now he’s for them. First he hates Bush, &lt;a href="http://blog.washingtonpost.com/the-trail/2008/05/09/west_wing_actors_confirm_accou.html"&gt;now he loves him&lt;/a&gt;. First he hates people like me, then he loves us, then&lt;a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/7416257.stm"&gt; he hates us again&lt;/a&gt;. On and on... Pick an issue and this guy has been on three sides of it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can’t stand this weasel. He will say anything for political expedience.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just vote for Ron Paul and sleep better at night knowing God won’t strike you down for being a dumb ass.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b style="color:red;"&gt;Update 7/10/2008:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And now McCain flip-flops on keeping his wife in line. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog.washingtonpost.com/the-trail/2008/07/08/mccains_latest_iran_joke.html"&gt;Responding to a question about a survey that shows increased exports to Iran, mainly from cigarettes, McCain said, "Maybe that's a way of killing them."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He quickly caught himself, saying "I meant that as a joke" as his wife, Cindy, poked him in the back.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, now Cindy McCain dictates foreign policy? If John McCain can’t man-up enough to tell this woman to mind her own business then how can he possibly eradicate the terrorists that are lurking in every American community?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35219168-8984683725558970807?l=fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/feeds/8984683725558970807/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35219168&amp;postID=8984683725558970807' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/8984683725558970807'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/8984683725558970807'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/2008/07/i-hate-john-mccain.html' title='I hate John McCain'/><author><name>Kirk</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10275436220661456514</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4154/1413/1600/chainflag.jpg'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35219168.post-4187228604712799383</id><published>2008-03-25T20:15:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2008-03-25T20:15:49.033-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Unfair Sentencing Practices</title><content type='html'>I had a rather rude awakening regarding our criminal justice system. I was convicted of battery and sentenced to three months in jail. The sentence was based on the fact that this was only my fifth offense not including the domestic charges. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The judge stated, "We can't have people beating others simply because they are driving slower than the speed limit." Fine, I accept that. Albeit, reluctantly. It does make some sense in the fact that I ended up delaying traffic more than the person who started the altercation with their disregard to the flow of traffic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My problem is with the overly harsh sentence. Now, I think three months is fine if I had knocked out the teeth of a teenager, but I find it unacceptable that someone would be sentenced that long for doing the same thing to someone in their eighties. Where's the fairness in that? It is plain unjust that the sentence wasn't prorated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm not interested in getting into a debate about what the base sentence should be regarding battery. So, let's forget about my personal experience and deal with something a little less abstract such as murder. For the sake of argument let's say we are in some liberal state that only has life in prison. Again, I don't want to get into a debate on this, I'm just trying to simplify my point. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If some doctor performs an abortion on an unborn child then quite obviously that murderer should be sentenced to life in prison along with the mother. The child had all of their natural life taken away from them and it's pretty simple to see that the murderers should have all of their natural life taken away from them. Let them rot in prison.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What about if someone murders a seventy year old? Should that person spend life in prison? What sense would that make? Men are only expected to live to seventy-five in the United States. The victim only lost five years of their life. So, isn't it reasonable for the sentence to be five years? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That's my point. It takes a lot more time to make a younger person whole than it does an older person. Now, statistically, this idiot driver shouldn't even be around. How exactly did I take anything away from someone who, for a lack of a better term, is the walking dead? It seems to me that I should have been convicted, but should not have to serve any time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, we'll see how the appeal goes. This system just sucks time and money from people that don't have the time to figure out all the loopholes.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35219168-4187228604712799383?l=fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/feeds/4187228604712799383/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35219168&amp;postID=4187228604712799383' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/4187228604712799383'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/4187228604712799383'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/2008/03/unfair-sentencing-practices.html' title='Unfair Sentencing Practices'/><author><name>Kirk</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10275436220661456514</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4154/1413/1600/chainflag.jpg'/></author><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35219168.post-3676370449213479677</id><published>2007-12-16T11:05:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2007-12-17T19:46:37.624-08:00</updated><title type='text'>A bigger threat than Iran?</title><content type='html'>Dear avid reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Much attention has been put on Iran and the fact that they &lt;a href="http://www.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/12/03/iran.nuclear/"&gt;managed to infiltrate our intelligence community&lt;/a&gt; to produce a National Intelligence Estimate that makes the spurious claim that Iran stopped their nuclear weapons program in 2003. True, this alone justifies a massive invasion of Iran, Syria and Croatia. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, there is a much more daunting enemy than the aforementioned axis of evil. Now, before everyone jumps on my case here, let me point out that while we know these countries are working together to build a nuclear weapon that will kill or maim every American citizen in the world the fact of the matter is that these countries have been rather gutless in asserting their will. When was the last time you heard these three nations threaten the United States? Because of the decisive leadership of President Bush there is self doubt and hesitation among these extremist states.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is, however, one rogue nation that openly threatens America's leadership in the world: &lt;a href="http://www.crooksandliars.com/2007/12/16/drama-and-intrigue-in-bali/ "&gt;Papua New Guinea&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The frightening fact is that we don't even have a National Intelligence Estimate on Papua New Guinea's nuclear capability. But, we do know that the majority of the country's population subscribes to extremist religious beliefs with 34% practicing Indigenlam and another 22% taking orders from the Roman Catholic Cult. There is only a &lt;a href="https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/pp.html#People"&gt;4% Christian population&lt;/a&gt;. Given this fact, wouldn't it be prudent to invade now? We could easily overwhelm the island defenses with the element of surprise. Believe me, no one would expect an invasion now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unfortunately, I am no longer a campaign adviser due to an altercation with a female staff member. So, don't expect to see this very serious issue brought up in any of the Republican debates as the candidates all appear to be asleep at the wheel.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b style="color:red"&gt;Update:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We now have indirect evidence of the Guinea nuclear program. Reputable scientists have discovered &lt;a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/main.jhtml?xml=/earth/2007/12/17/earat117.xml"&gt;genetically mutated rats and possums around the suspected weapons site&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35219168-3676370449213479677?l=fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/feeds/3676370449213479677/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35219168&amp;postID=3676370449213479677' title='18 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/3676370449213479677'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/3676370449213479677'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/2007/12/bigger-threat-than-iran.html' title='A bigger threat than Iran?'/><author><name>Kirk</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10275436220661456514</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4154/1413/1600/chainflag.jpg'/></author><thr:total>18</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35219168.post-4210427979656019903</id><published>2007-11-27T18:56:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-11-27T18:58:52.247-08:00</updated><title type='text'>My Choice for President</title><content type='html'>Okay, you all can stop sending me emails asking who to vote for.

Rather, the media just hasn't told the full truth. To me, this is the same as a lie.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The media is correct in reporting that H.R. 976 (Children's Health Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2007) would have insured half of the currently uninsured children in the United States. While that is surely a noble endeavor, the media has failed to disclose that SCHIP would not kill one single terrorist. Not one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That is a &lt;b&gt;100% loss on investment&lt;/b&gt;. So, you tell me: Do you want a president that enacts legislation that flushes 100% of your tax dollars down the toilet? &lt;b&gt;Or do you want a president that acts heroically in the face of a media onslaught&lt;/b&gt; and veto's this type of junk legislation?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b style="color: red"&gt;Update:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear liberals, I see you out there.

Well, it's not exactly a vacation, but it will give me some peace and quite. Actually, that will depend on the other inmates, but I'm hoping it is quiet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seems someone found the RV in the Gulf… and the case of spent beer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's been a rough year for me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At least I'll get free room and board. God must be looking out for my best interests, because I sure am tired of frog gigging. They don't taste like chicken. Sure, they're good a few times a year, but not everyday for five weeks. I sure hope they serve ribs. Man, I haven't had a decent meal since that whore left me. She was a good cook, but most temptresses are. I definitely need a change, because I've been eyeing stray cats.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The judge asked me if I was sorry when I entered my plea. Sorry for what? For living like Christ? Did Christ not make wine? Unfortunately, I had an atheistic activist judge and he threw the book at me. Four weeks. Then when I called him a communist he upped it to eight. It's sickening how Christians are now persecuted in this country.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But, I'll just think about the promised land knowing that Jesus is looking down approvingly and soon I'll be raptured.

Maybe you are also unaware that the Fed's only response to this crisis was to cut the discount rate by a half point. In short, maybe you are too stupid to remember to breath.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I assume if you've made it this far in the article that you know a little bit about current events given you haven't yet passed out and died the blue death. Kudos to you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What you probably don't know is that the discount rate doesn't affect consumer interest rates. That would be the federal funds rate that you are thinking of. Idiot. What you also probably don't know is that the federal funds rate cannot be "set" by anyone, but rather the Fed screws around buying and selling securities to raise or lower the reserve balances of various financial institutions thus indirectly moving the market rate where they want it. Jesus Christ, just read this thing moron: &lt;a href="http://www.federalreserve.gov/pubs/bulletin/1997/199711lead.pdf"&gt;http://www.federalreserve.gov/pubs/bulletin/1997/199711lead.pdf&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Getting to the point: The federal funds rate does not automatically affect consumer interest rates. "But, but, you just said…" Shut up! I said that was the rate &lt;b&gt;you&lt;/b&gt; were thinking of. The reason you thought the federal funds rate affects consumer rates is because that's what the main stream media reports. They are idiot liberals that know nothing about markets.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The fact is that the federal funds rate &lt;b&gt;can&lt;/b&gt; indirectly move consumer rates since it does raise or lower borrowing costs for banks. If it goes higher, the cost is passed on to consumers. If it goes lower, the savings is &lt;b&gt;either&lt;/b&gt; passed to the consumer or pocketed by the bank.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Actually, forget I said any of that, because there are way more moving parts involved here and you obviously can't even grasp the most basic principals of all this. Thanks for wasting my time jackass.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm just going to dictate to you what needs to be done:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Markets work by allowing the strong to thrive and the weak to die. We have a problem right now. The banks cannot sell any mortgage backed securities, because America is a welfare state full of deadbeats that don't pay their mortgages. Since banks can't sell mortgages, they can't raise cash to pay depositors and, worse, issue new mortgages. In short, some banks are going to fail.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In order to support free and unfettered markets, the Fed needs to just outright buy all mortgage backed securities for par value from the banks and investment companies. This is to ensure that the strong don't die.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In addition, the Fed needs to mandate that banks issue mortgages at a negative rate in order to insure that I survive. I am strong and free markets reward the strong. That Nigerian bastard ran off with my daughter's money! I need to refinance my interest only loan you sons of bitches!! Give me my money!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Holy Christ Almighty! Am I the only one who believes in free markets?! Why isn't the Fed intervening to save us?! I'm going to lose everything!!! Discount rate! WTF?! That only keeps banks liquid in an emergency and is not sustainable! We need to free the market now and get back to infinite refinancing!!! NOW!!!! We're not asking for a bailout! We are DEMANDING that the government buy all our AAA rated CDO's and start paying us to borrow money from them!!! THAT'S NOT A BAILOUT!!! THAT'S PURCHASING AND LOANING TO A FREE MARKET!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;STATED INCOME!!!

That's when I started looking for the root cause of traffic congestion. After studying the situation for a few months it became apparent that, once again, government regulation is to blame.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Local governments across the country have, over time, installed a myriad of traffic controls such as traffic signals, stop signs, yield signs, one way signs and the occasional police officer directing traffic. These traffic controls are akin to price controls. They don't work. Price controls lead to shortages, traffic controls lead to congestion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Instead of having a nanny state that tries to "protect" you, we would be better served with a market approach to navigating our roads. Allowing individuals to take personal responsibility over traffic decisions will lead to efficiency as people will naturally choose the fastest and safest method to arrive at their destination.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For instance, how many times have you been stuck at a red light while there is no cross traffic? Why are we leaving the decision to cross the intersection to some colored lights? Let's let the individual decide.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Or how many times have you been on the highway when the "northbound" lanes are jammed up and the "southbound" lanes are wide open? Wouldn't it make more sense for the individual to decide which lane should go in what direction rather than some arbitrary rule posted on a sign?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A market based approach would also lead to underperformers being taken out of the marketplace. This will lead to fewer vehicles on the road and will further ease traffic congestion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It seems ridiculous that we ever implemented traffic controls when you put serious thought into it. But when you are raised with something, no matter how nonsensical, it often takes a long time to realize that there is a better way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, it's time to start petitioning your mayors to start removing all traffic controls. They are worse than useless; they are taking up our valuable time!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35219168-4379004784698576642?l=fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/feeds/4379004784698576642/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35219168&amp;postID=4379004784698576642' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/4379004784698576642'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/4379004784698576642'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/2007/08/end-congestion-on-our-roads.html' title='End congestion on our roads!'/><author><name>Kirk</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10275436220661456514</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4154/1413/1600/chainflag.jpg'/></author><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35219168.post-5436165437782741783</id><published>2007-07-28T10:19:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-28T10:20:11.796-07:00</updated><title type='text'>My Wife Calls</title><content type='html'>Many of you know about my wife cavorting around with some anti-Christian lawyer and begging me for a divorce. You also know that I would never commit such a wicked act. Well, guess who calls the other day?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My wife tells me our six year old needs some sort of medical procedure. I wasn't really paying attention, so I'm not clear on what's wrong with the kid, but the harlot starts balling at me, "Why did you take us off your insurance?" Hey, you're the one that wanted a divorce. I met you halfway, but it's typical that you'd turn this around on me.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;The real kicker is that I didn't even know Samuel was with his mom. I just assumed that he decided to go out on his own and make something of himself. Needless to say I am disappointed that my own son hasn't learned something called personal responsibility and would rather cling to his mother than be a man.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't even know why I'm airing my grievances here. I guess it's just that I'm so shocked that my son adopted my wife's views that dad should have to pay for everything. He doesn't even consider getting a job. That's the whole problem with youth today. They expect something for nothing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You'd also think I'd enjoy hearing my wife crying like a banshee after all she has done to me.

I also hooked up an electro-mechanical bell to my computer through the USB port. I wrote a simple piece of software to ring the bell whenever my computer receives the UDP packet from a page load. It's a pretty nice setup if I do say so myself. Every time the bell rings I feel a sense of accomplishment that my message of compassionate conservatism is getting through.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, some people visiting this site lack a sense of courtesy. Would you like someone to come ring your door bell at 3AM when you are fast asleep? No? Well, I don't appreciate it when people ring my site bell at that hour. Please, show some respect and only visit the site during reasonable hours. Also, please don't click all over the place while you are visiting the site. That can get pretty annoying too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, enjoy the site, but please treat it as if you were coming to my house for a cup of coffee and a chat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b style="color: red"&gt;Update July 15, 2007 @ 2:09am in the God damned morning:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alright, I put this post up on July 11th. I made it very clear that people should be courteous about the hours they visit this site. Everyday, every damn day, I have been woken up at some unGodly hour by some imbecile clicking away at this site. &lt;b&gt;What is wrong with you people?&lt;/b&gt; I haven't had a decent night's sleep for almost two weeks! If this doesn't stop I am going to disable this site at night. I mean it. So, when one of you is looking for some emergency consultation in the middle of the night you can thank the rude night clickers that I'm not here to help. &lt;b&gt;You people are going to ruin it for everyone!&lt;/b&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35219168-2714962632842812696?l=fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/feeds/2714962632842812696/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35219168&amp;postID=2714962632842812696' title='21 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/2714962632842812696'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/2714962632842812696'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/2007/07/common-courtesy.html' title='Common Courtesy'/><author><name>Kirk</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10275436220661456514</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4154/1413/1600/chainflag.jpg'/></author><thr:total>21</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35219168.post-8180455330680095080</id><published>2007-07-07T22:58:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-07T23:11:32.908-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Democratic Craftsmanship</title><content type='html'>Many nights I pray to our Lord asking when He is finally going release the great plague that will destroy all liberals. While He often tells me to do certain tasks for Him, He never answers this question. I believe this is my test of faith.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've got into some discussions with liberals lately that have left me very angry. I'm sure most of you will find these talking points familiar:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Has Osama bin Laden been captured?&lt;br /&gt;Has New Orleans been rebuilt?&lt;br /&gt;Has Iraq been stabilized?&lt;br /&gt;Has Afghanistan been stabilized?&lt;br /&gt;Has No-Child-Left-Behind been fully funded?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These are trick questions only a PR person in the Democratic Party could think of. Of course the answer to all these questions is no and somehow Democrats think this makes us Republicans look bad. WRONG!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Case in point: Democratic Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi made a campaign promise before the 2006 elections to eliminate gifts from lobbyists, enact a PAYGO policy, implement 9/11 Commission recommendations, increase minimum wage, issue grants for stem cell research, allow the federal government to negotiate pricing with drug companies for Medicare, cut interest rates on student loans, and end subsidies for oil companies. She promised to do all this in the &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/100-Hour_Plan"&gt;first 100 hours&lt;/a&gt; a Democratic controlled Congress took office. Of course, being a liberal, she broke that promise and did all those things in eighty six hours. &lt;b&gt;Not the 100 hours she promised.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many people want to focus on her breaking her campaign promise, but that's not what I'm getting at. She passed a plethora of legislation very quickly. Rushing through legislation like that always results in an inferior product.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That's the difference between Republicans and Democrats. &lt;b&gt;Republicans take the time to do things right!&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another example: In 1993, &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Trade_Center_bombing"&gt;the World Trade Center was bombed&lt;/a&gt;. What did Bill Clinton do? He had some of the perpetrators convicted and sentenced by 1994! Ten people were convicted and sentenced all within a few years of the attack!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;September 11th might not have occurred if Bill Clinton hadn't of done such a rush job of fighting terrorism!&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I mean I could go on and on about Clinton's hurried actions: balancing the budget, paying off our national debt, reforming welfare, Pell Grants, decreasing crime, decreasing unemployment, decreasing poverty… on and on. All this so unbelievably fast that it can't be anything less than shoddy work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not President Bush. &lt;b&gt;President Bush is going to take his time to make sure Osama bin Laden is captured right!&lt;/b&gt; To make sure of this He even pulled troops out of &lt;a href="http://www.cnn.com/2005/US/03/24/pentagon.binladen/index.html"&gt;Toro Bora&lt;/a&gt; when we could have easily of captured bin Laden. Quality is never easy and fast and President Bush knows this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And you can bet President Bush isn't going to do a rush job in Iraq. It's going to take decades to do a quality job in that place. This president is going to make sure we do it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But, our president's commitment to quality doesn't end with his own policies. To make sure that we have a quality justice system he sometimes pardons people that have been sentenced too quickly. This man cares about quality.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, the next time someone asks you whether President Bush has done anything useful in office, you proudly answer: &lt;b&gt;No! Quality is job #1!&lt;/b&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35219168-8180455330680095080?l=fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/feeds/8180455330680095080/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35219168&amp;postID=8180455330680095080' title='18 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/8180455330680095080'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/8180455330680095080'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/2007/07/democratic-craftsmanship.html' title='Democratic Craftsmanship'/><author><name>Kirk</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10275436220661456514</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4154/1413/1600/chainflag.jpg'/></author><thr:total>18</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35219168.post-5431487509424510296</id><published>2007-07-06T18:05:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-06T18:21:02.188-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Fox News - Too Liberal?</title><content type='html'>When I used to run Country of the Righteous (before the Jihadists hacked it and setup their virtual training ground) I often criticized Fox News for its liberal slant on current events. Yes, I know Fox News is the least liberal main stream media organization. Even other conservatives point this out to me. But, least liberal does not automatically mean that it is not liberal at all. Unfortunately, for all us main stream conservatives, Fox News doesn't even approach centrist. I'm not saying that Fox News is as far left as ABC, but I will say that Fox News has recently swung just left of Hugo Chavez.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I said, I have covered this topic before on my old site (peace be upon it) and I was more than satisfied that I proved my position. I just feel, with the precipitous swing to the left, that I should cover this issue again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Proof positive: Liberal blogs are linking to Fox News in order to bolster their arguments. See for yourselves: &lt;a href="http://www.crooksandliars.com/2007/07/06/universal-healthcare-terrorist-recruitment-tool/"&gt;Crooks and Liars&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The link above goes to a site run by… you guessed it… crooks and liars… liberals. They are so unabashed that they don't even try to hide what they are. But, this post isn't about liberal blogs – they are what they are… cesspools. We'll never rid ourselves of cesspools. We just need to avoid stepping in them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No, this post is about Fox News. You can't avoid Fox News. It's out their in your, and your children's, face spreading its left wing propaganda. How many people watch this station and don't even realize the distortions it's feeding them? Too many.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The reason Fox News is so successful at brainwashing its viewers is that they are subtle about it. Watch the &lt;a href="http://www.crooksandliars.com/2007/07/06/universal-healthcare-terrorist-recruitment-tool/"&gt;clip I linked to&lt;/a&gt; and see if you catch the liberal slant. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Did you catch it? No? Well, that's their game isn't it?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let me point it out to you:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;"The Muslim world is very good at creating physicians."&lt;br /&gt;"Islam holds physicians in very high esteem."&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Watch again. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now you hear it! Don't feel bad that you didn't pick it out the first time, that's how subliminal messages work. They are there, but you don't hear them unless you are looking for them. I am &lt;b&gt;always&lt;/b&gt; looking for them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes, Fox News wants you to think of Islamofascists as you would your family doctor. I know this is shocking, but you just heard it for yourself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, I know many of you want to believe that the words were misspoken. But, I'm telling you, almost every news cast from Fox News has some sort of raving socialist statement hidden away in it. &lt;b&gt;Look for them!&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And reader... before you attack the messenger...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Proverbs 14:6:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?book_id=24&amp;chapter=14&amp;amp;verse=6&amp;version=31&amp;amp;context=verse"&gt;The mocker seeks wisdom and finds none, but knowledge comes easily to the discerning.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35219168-5431487509424510296?l=fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/feeds/5431487509424510296/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35219168&amp;postID=5431487509424510296' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/5431487509424510296'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/5431487509424510296'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/2007/07/fox-news-too-liberal.html' title='Fox News - Too Liberal?'/><author><name>Kirk</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10275436220661456514</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4154/1413/1600/chainflag.jpg'/></author><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35219168.post-6751590433783399791</id><published>2007-07-04T19:22:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-04T19:22:55.204-07:00</updated><title type='text'>The Liberal Media Hates our Troops!</title><content type='html'>Reader, I am just sickened by the disdain our liberal media has shown our veterans today. Like most of you, I've been celebrating this great holiday with family and friends in front of the TV enjoying a few beers. I didn't really notice the insidious undertone of media coverage for a few hours, but it finally dawned on me what the media was doing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All throughout the day, the media proclaimed: "July 4th celebrations", "July 4th fireworks", etc. But, not once did I hear today referred to as Veterans Day!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What's the problem you say?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The problem is our media is trying to secularize this holiday and make you forget that its purpose is to celebrate the sacrifice of our brave men fighting for your freedom! The media wants you to forget about our troops currently fighting the war on terror in Iraq and instead worship this day like some pagan holiday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;While I've never served in the armed forces, I can speak for every brave service member when I say that we demand and deserve respect for our service! This country would be nowhere if we hadn't of fought for your freedom. So, please put partisan politics aside and bring honor and dignity back to this day by contacting your local affiliates and demand that they stop referring to this great day simply as "July 4th"!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35219168-6751590433783399791?l=fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/feeds/6751590433783399791/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35219168&amp;postID=6751590433783399791' title='16 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/6751590433783399791'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/6751590433783399791'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/2007/07/liberal-media-hates-our-troops.html' title='The Liberal Media Hates our Troops!'/><author><name>Kirk</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10275436220661456514</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4154/1413/1600/chainflag.jpg'/></author><thr:total>16</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35219168.post-2034892507955383032</id><published>2007-07-03T17:34:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-10T23:14:12.249-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Scooter Libby - Not Guilty!!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;So, now that the legal system has proved what Republicans have said all along (that Scooter Libby is innocent) I wonder if the liberal media and Democrats will apologize for dragging Mr. Libby's name through the mud?&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;a href="http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2007/07/02/bush-commutes-libby-sentence/"&gt;Read it for yourself.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35219168-2034892507955383032?l=fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/feeds/2034892507955383032/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35219168&amp;postID=2034892507955383032' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/2034892507955383032'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/2034892507955383032'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/2007/07/scooter-libby-not-guilty.html' title='Scooter Libby - Not Guilty!!!'/><author><name>Kirk</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10275436220661456514</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4154/1413/1600/chainflag.jpg'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35219168.post-6782130935957004312</id><published>2007-06-29T22:19:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-10T23:14:03.948-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Why the poor are your enemy.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=matthew%2025:41-46;&amp;version=31;"&gt;"Then he will say to those on his left, 'Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. &lt;span id="en-NIV-24048"&gt;For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, &lt;span id="en-NIV-24049"&gt;I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.' &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;p&gt;"They also will answer, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?' &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;"He will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.' &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;"Then they will go away to eternal punishment."&lt;/a&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;People... that's straight from the Bible.

Perhaps if we had a Republican controlled Congress running the FCC, people like me wouldn't constantly be victimized by the progressive rationalist agenda.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, something struck me during the dimocratic debate that I'm not sure anyone else picked up on. Let's face it. There are not too many people out there with my intellect. The last election clearly demonstrated that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Former Senator John Edwards slammed Hillary Rodham Clinton for waiting until the last minute to cast her vote against the Iraq Supplemental Bill. That, my readers, was a very astute observation coming from someone who couldn't even manage to win reelection as a senator in his own state, or the 2004 primary, or the Vice Presidency. In other words, it was a shot in the dark by a hapless man that just happened to nail the target.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You see, I know what John Edwards, and most of you, can't possibly comprehend. Mrs. Clinton wanted the funding bill to pass and wanted to vote against it. Yes, she wanted both.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is obvious why she wanted to vote against the bill: Political gain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, it was even more important to her that the bill pass. So important, in fact, that she waited until the last minute to cast her vote in order to cast a yes vote if absolutely necessary. By waiting until the last minute, she could tell whether or not the bill would need her vote to pass.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But why would she want this bill to pass? Wake up people! It's for more political gain!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do you see it yet? No? Of course not. Let me explain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Voting against the bill is a pro-terrorist move that rallies the demoncratic base behind her. That political gain is easy to grasp.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ensuring that the bill passes also gives political gain, but it is a little more complicated to explain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Everyone will agree that President Bush has been steadfast in everything he has done during His presidency. Once President Bush chooses a path, he stays the course. He does not flinch even under intense pressure. No matter how much "evidence" the "experts" present, nothing sways the man. President Bush has demonstrated that he is a true leader.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, many in the democrat party think that if Congress withholds funding for the Iraq War that President Bush would capitulate and bring the troops home. These people actually think that not being able to supply our soldiers with weapons, ammunition, armor and food would somehow break the President's resolve and result in a rapid withdrawal from Iraq.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Exactly what planet have these clowns been living on?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;President Bush would never abandon the mission simply because soldiers would have to be creative about where they got their supplies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Imagine when the media shows a few thousand malnourished American soldiers and asks the President when he plans to bring them home.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Not until the mission is accomplished," would be President Bush's response.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now that is leadership and toughness! Every soldier and every American would be behind the President. It would be a new dawn in America!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is this glory that Mrs. Clinton stole from President Bush and our soldiers that is her other political gain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope she chokes on it.&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Our troops deserve better.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35219168-5992111833263737405?l=fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/feeds/5992111833263737405/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35219168&amp;postID=5992111833263737405' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/5992111833263737405'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/5992111833263737405'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/2007/06/playing-politics.html' title='Playing Politics'/><author><name>Kirk</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10275436220661456514</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4154/1413/1600/chainflag.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35219168.post-7315752618165798870</id><published>2007-04-14T14:18:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-10T23:13:45.341-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Tort Reform</title><content type='html'>An unbelievable thing happened to me on Friday. I've been suspended from my job for giving an employee a promotion! You read that correct. I give an employee a promotion and I get suspended. Not only that, but the company gets sued! I guess this is the "New World Order" Bill Clinton was talking about.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"How can this be?" you ask. Well, did I mention that the employee was female?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Indeed, if you don't move these people up the corporate ladder, it's sex discrimination. If you push them up the ladder, it's sexual assault. There is no winning with the feminist movement.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The young lady in question had been doing a fine job and I thought she was ready to take on more responsibility. I filled out all the necessary paper work, got all the approvals, and called her to my office. She &lt;i&gt;seemed&lt;/i&gt; very happy when she got the news that she was moving up. We shook hands and as she left I gave her a congratulatory rump pat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How exactly a suspension comes in, I don't know. I just know that it was this employee that filed the complaint. I don't yet have the details other than I'm not to report to work and that I will at some point have to talk with a company lawyer in order to prepare for the lawsuit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't know how this nation is supposed to compete with other countries when people are constantly hauled into court over the most benign things. If there has ever been more proof that we need to redesign our current justice system, I don't know what that proof is.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35219168-7315752618165798870?l=fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/feeds/7315752618165798870/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35219168&amp;postID=7315752618165798870' title='30 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/7315752618165798870'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/7315752618165798870'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/2007/04/tort-reform.html' title='Tort Reform'/><author><name>Kirk</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10275436220661456514</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4154/1413/1600/chainflag.jpg'/></author><thr:total>30</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35219168.post-4406337095538335935</id><published>2007-04-05T19:33:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-07-10T23:13:34.355-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Disgrace</title><content type='html'>I just can't believe the cowardice of the British sailors and marines kidnapped by Iran. When it happened, I prayed the ones who'd shamed their country would be court-martialed on return to Blighty, and given dishonorable discharges after a couple years breaking rocks in the Outer Hebrides. Now, I confess, I wouldn't shed a tear if some worse fate befell them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The only coherent response I get to these sentiments is: "How do you know what they've been through? How would YOU stand up?" To which the obvious reply is the one Dr. Johnson gave in some similar case: "I may criticize a carpenter who makes me a bad table, though I cannot make a table myself. It is not my job to make tables." It is the job of a Royal Marine to fight, and if necessary suffer and die, for his country. They know that when they go in. It's what they are told! I know that if put to the test, I would stand up as well as any Marine. Whether or not I would, however, is irrelevant. Whether or not I could stand up well to torture, I expect Marines to.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And in any case, there was no evidence of torture or mistreatment in any of the filmed cases I have seen. They look just fine. You can't fake that. The girl sailor had that headscarf on within hours. From what I've heard of torture, even weaker cases can hold out for a few days.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for the argument that these people might have buckled under threats to hurt their comrades, I should think a soldier's answer would be: "They are soldiers, same as me. They know the risks of service, and they'll answer for themselves."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In any case, a trained soldier will have been instructed that these Iranian fanatics are without any scruples. They practice what Lenin called "revolutionary morality"—i.e. whatever advances the revolution is good, whatever does not, is bad. It should be assumed that everything the Iranians say is a lie. If they say: "Do this, and we won't harm your mates," and you do it, they will harm your mates anyway. Of course, this kind of truth is much harder to get across to young people who have been brainwashed from elementary school to believe that their own culture is corrupt, evil, and false, while the cultures of Third World barbarians are morally superior...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Update &lt;st1:date year="2007" day="14" month="4"&gt;4/14/2007&lt;/st1:date&gt;:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;One of my readers has notified me that my post has been &lt;a href="http://corner.nationalreview.com/post/?q=MGNkYmUxOTAyMmZkNWU5ZGQ2YTAxMmJiNmQ3MDRmNmU="&gt;plagiarized by someone at the National Review Online&lt;/a&gt;.

My blog was attacked by liberals once again, but this time they incompetently posted articles from my old blog "&lt;a href="http://countryoftherighteous.blogspot.com/"&gt;Country of the Righteous&lt;/a&gt;" that was hijacked by Islamic eco-terrorists.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, I thought it made sense to repost an article I wrote from my old blog in order to demonstrate the liberal lunacy of November 2005:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Liberals make themselves look like fools!&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, the latest liberal propaganda appears to be the use of "white phosphorus" munitions in &lt;st1:country-region&gt;&lt;st1:place&gt;Iraq&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;. The liberals are claiming that this phosphorus is a chemical weapon. First of all, I haven't seen any credible evidence that we have used TV glow dust in &lt;st1:country-region&gt;&lt;st1:place&gt;Iraq&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;, and second, so what?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I pointed out to some liberal fiends in another blog, claiming that phosphorus is a chemical weapon would require you to accuse Sony of unleashing a vast arsenal of chemical weapons against consumers that have purchased TV sets. That shut them up right away. Probably because Sony is a Japanese company and God forbid we ever accuse an Axis power of any atrocity. If I had said Zenith, an all American company, these liberals would probably have already had the ACLU suing the Hell out of them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't see these Saddam apologists ever mention that Hussein used chemical munitions that would burn down to the bone and possibly cause liver or kidney failure. Of course not, Saddam Hussein is their hero.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What's next for these propagandists? I can already see it coming: Using depleted uranium against the Iraqi terrorists is a war crime.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Never mind that as soon as the uranium hits its target it is vaporized into a harmless lightly radioactive dust carried about in the air.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You know, I'm not going to play Satan's advocate here and try to think like a liberal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our military and CIA officers go out of their way to protect the civilian population and treat them with dignity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These liberal guttersnipes try and throw out big numbers and nasty words, like 25,000 civilian deaths or "torture" at Abu Ghraib.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;25,000 civilians? Out of a country with 26 million people? That's less than 0.1% of the population of &lt;st1:country-region&gt;&lt;st1:place&gt;Iraq&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;. Wake up liberals. That's a very low percentage especially when you consider how much we had to bomb that country before our forces went in.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The most unconscionable part is the liberals would have you believe these Iraqi deaths were equivalent to American deaths. They are not.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Torture? Who hasn't had a glow stick forcibly inserted into their rectum at their college fraternity?

This war would already be won if we had finished the move to a 100% privately run military.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A big government military is simply not able to make the decisions necessary to win wars in a post 9/11 world. The commentator in this video is spot on. If the use of deadly force was authorized against these adolescent terrorists the Iraqis would appreciate the awesome power of American supremacy and terrorism would be a thing of the past.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unfortunately you go to war with the military you have, not the military you would want or wish to have.

Bonobo is apparently what the elitists call monkeys.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm just going to let the article speak for itself:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;While chimpanzees and gorillas often settle disputes by fierce, sometimes deadly fighting, bonobos  commonly make peace by engaging in feverish orgies in which males have intercourse with females and other males, and females with other females.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Two females stop eating for a few moments to rub their swollen genitals together.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;A female swings to the next tree and rubs genitals with another female for about a minute, squeaking, while a male and a female, balanced on a bough, mate face to face, her legs wrapped around his waist.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Near Wamba, Ihomi says, he and his colleagues tracked three bonobo groups, two of which engaged in rambunctious sex when they ran into each other.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There we have it. What many of us have known all along. Science is pushing the sodomites' agenda while denying God's existence by rejecting creationism. Clearly, the homosexual deviants won't be happy until they force their lifestyle choice on every person and animal on this planet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is why it is so important that the liberals never get control of our government. They will legislate forced homosexuality and bestiality on all of us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Needless to say, I did not stick around to see this activist doctor.

If this is what you are thinking then it's because you are ignorant. This is not an insult. I'm just pointing out that anyone with this line of thinking doesn't care enough about their country to educate themselves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The fact of the matter is that the New York Times has established a pattern of helping terrorists development nuclear technology.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just look at this New York Times article:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9E01E7D8153DF934A15753C1A9629C8B63"&gt;Nuclear Agency Closes Part Of Web Site&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That was clear back in 2004!

About the only other victory I feel this confident of is the Iraq War.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;President Bush today buried the Democrat Party in their own compost by labeling them the party of "defeat and doubt" and pointing out that &lt;a href="http://www.washtimes.com/national/20061020-114436-6887r.htm"&gt;the Democrats "didn't like America's support for freedom fighters resisting Soviet puppet regimes" under the Reagan administration.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The American people are not stupid. While the "defeat and doubt" slogan could win this election on its own, the real damage was done by pointing out the Democrats' lack of spine in supporting the freedom fighters. Americans will inevitably think of the freedom fighters in Afghanistan – which is no doubt exactly what the President planned – and wonder &lt;span id="saddam"&gt;if the Democrats hadn't of obstructed Ronald Reagan in His efforts to fund these fighters whether &lt;a onmouseover="'document.getElementById(" display="none" href="http://www.cnn.com/CNN/Programs/people/shows/binladen/profile.html"&gt;Saddam Hussein would have managed to fly two planes into the World Trade Center six years later.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span id="osama" style="display: none;"&gt;why "&lt;a href="http://www.cnn.com/CNN/Programs/people/shows/binladen/profile.html"&gt;The United States, via the CIA, poured $3 billion into the Afghan resistance during the 1980s, providing weapons and other resources for bin Laden and thousands of others who would become his most loyal, fierce supporters.&lt;/a&gt;"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;President Bush is once again misunderestimated and has just checkmated those who wish to do this country great harm.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35219168-116141439607432980?l=fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/feeds/116141439607432980/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35219168&amp;postID=116141439607432980' title='21 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/116141439607432980'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/116141439607432980'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/2006/10/president-bush-delivers-knock-out-blow.html' title='President Bush delivers knock out blow against Democrats!'/><author><name>Kirk</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10275436220661456514</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4154/1413/1600/chainflag.jpg'/></author><thr:total>21</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35219168.post-116071723731809100</id><published>2006-10-12T22:26:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-04-21T00:38:31.438-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Thursday Night Cat Blogging</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4154/1413/1600/Mittens.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4154/1413/400/Mittens.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is Mittens, about the best cat in the world.

Democrats are quick to post these alleged conversations. Here are some excerpts of what &lt;a href="http://www.democraticunderground.com/top10/06/262_foley.pdf"&gt;these ultra partisan Democrats are posting&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Republican Congressman Foley to underage teenage boy:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="padding: 0px 20px;"&gt;did any girl give you a haand job this weekend&lt;br /&gt;good so your getting horny&lt;br /&gt;did you spank it this weekend yourself&lt;br /&gt;cute butt bouncing in the air&lt;br /&gt;great visual&lt;br /&gt;i always use lotion and the hand&lt;br /&gt;is your little guy limp...or growing&lt;br /&gt;what you wearing&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Underage teenage boy:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="padding: 0px 20px;"&gt;tshirt  and  shorts&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Republican Congressman Foley to underage adolescent boy:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="padding: 0px 20px;"&gt;um so a big buldge&lt;br /&gt;love to slip them off of you&lt;br /&gt;and gram the one eyed snake&lt;br /&gt;grab&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sickening isn't it? What these Democrats are doing for their own partisan gain, but it gets worse.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It turns out that Republican House Speaker Dennis Hastert (R – IL) and Republican House Majority Leader John Boehner (R – OH) didn't leave Republican Congressman Mark Foley (R – FL) to hang out and dry and instead &lt;a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/09/30/AR2006093001265.html"&gt;ignored his pedophilatic conversations when they learned of them&lt;/a&gt; earlier this year. Democrats are actually criticizing the Republican leadership's decision to do nothing about Republican Congressman Mark Foley's graphic sexual conversations with minors when they first learned of it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Does this sound familiar to you? Of course it does. Democrats never give a damn about victims' rights and this is a prime example.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here we have an upstanding citizen (Republican Congressman Mark Foley) led into a life of depravity by some underage 16 or 17 year old beast and instead of punishing the teen for his misdeeds the Democrats are clamoring for the heads of the Republican leadership who ignored Republican Congressman Mark Foley's abhorrent behavior.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Look, we all know the score here. Some 16 or 17 year old beast boy struts his stuff around a good Christian man turning him away from God. This happens day in and day out among many many Republican lawmakers and we can't get anything done about it, because Democrats won't pass legislation to protect the Republican Congressmen and Senators that have fallen prey to these teenage minors' acts against God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Instead, the Democrats pull a partisan attack job on our Republican leaders and distract our government from the war on terror. This is nothing short of treason and it &lt;b&gt;NEEDS TO STOP NOW!&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Democrats should pass legislation that imprisons any youths that tempt Republican lawmakers into making sexual advances towards them. These juvenile delinquents are enemy combatants that deserve nothing less than indefinite detention.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Write your Congressman and tell them to &lt;b&gt;STOP THESE PARTISAN ATTACKS NOW&lt;/b&gt; and protect our lawmakers during a time of war.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35219168-115985283893934566?l=fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/feeds/115985283893934566/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35219168&amp;postID=115985283893934566' title='31 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/115985283893934566'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35219168/posts/default/115985283893934566'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://fairplusbalanced.blogspot.com/2006/10/democrats-attack-victims-rights.html' title='Democrats attack victim&apos;s rights'/><author><name>Kirk</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10275436220661456514</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4154/1413/1600/chainflag.jpg'/></author><thr:total>31</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35219168.post-115950331154137571</id><published>2006-09-28T21:00:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-04-21T00:34:34.912-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Welcome!</title><content type='html'>Hello reader,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm glad you chose to visit my blog.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I used to run a blog called &lt;a href="http://countryoftherighteous.blogspot.com/"&gt;Country of the Righteous&lt;/a&gt;, but the Netroot's hacked it and put up a site dedicated to Muslim extremism. I sent a letter off to Howard Dean asking him to condemn the liberals who did this, but he just ignored me. I wish I could read Arabic so I could counter the anti-American propaganda being propagated on the site I once called home.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My old blog was a forum dedicated to main stream America and it won all sorts of accolades. It will be hard to replace it, but I will try.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I welcome all types of people to this blog.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know this is a little unconventional, but I would like you – the reader – to let me know what I should discuss on this site.
