Alright, so I actually watched part of the opening ceremonies to the Olympics. Nicely done Canada. And Canadians, you’re beautiful. No wonder you’re so much happier than us Americans (who are stressed out like you cannot believe).

Now, this isn’t a knock on you, but a knock on the Olympic Committee. Dear Olympic Committee, you all are a bunch of wussies. Yes, you heard it right.

WTF is up with calling Taiwan “Chinese Taipei?” Afraid to offend the Chinese? Well, screw the Chinese. Taiwan = Taiwan. In Taiwan, there were a people called the Taiwanese who were there before you had that civil war between the Nationalists and the Communists. Yes, most people don’t know that, but it’s true. I love how China conveniently likes to forget the existence of peoples. Kind of like Tibetians.

So if someone calls a Taiwanese person Chinese and gets slapped upside the head, don’t be surprised. They hate being called that. As they should.

If someone comes up to you and tells you they watch the Super Bowl only for the commercials, feel free to smack them upside the head. Then tell them to get a fucking life. Seriously. How pathetic is someone to watch anything for commercials?

I wish I had a few million bucks to sponsor a study to show you that it’s not necessarily television that is evil. It’s commercials.

Commercials play to your insecurities. You’re too fat. You’re too thin. You’re not rich enough. You’re not pretty enough. You’re balding. Nobody likes you. Now, if you buy our product, you’ll be prettier. You’ll have better self-esteem. People will like you. You’ll lose weight. You’ll gain weight. Et cetera.

Over time, hearing all this bullshit over and over and you will become more insecure.

My study will show that the more commercials someone watches, the more insecure they will become.

So if someone really wants to watch commercials, instead just tell them they stink, they’re too fat, they’re too thin, nobody likes them, everyone else thinks they’re poor, they’re bald, and their feet are ugly. Oh, and buy your product or else people won’t like them.

Speaking of the Super Bowl, Drew Brees is better than Peyton Manning. There. I said it. Five years from now, people will agree with me. Right now, people won’t. Time will prove me right. Back to the Olympics, the Ukrainian team came up and my real estate agent, who’s traveled a heck of a lot more than I have, turns to me and tells me he thinks Ukrainian women are the best looking in the world. Before I say if I agree or disagree, I’d have to give that some thought. I don’t really have a favorite but if I made a test tube woman, I’d probably take the butt of a Brazilian, the smile of a Thai, the kindness of a Canadian, the brains of a Dutch or German, the energy of a Samoan, the ingenuity of a Japanese person, and the hair of an Irish red-head. And she’d be able to dance like Paula Abdul. Alright, this post is becoming silly. I’ll leave you with this Founding Father quote:”If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.”

-Sam Adams

OK.  Another board I frequent had an argument about who was worse, Obama or Palin.  I said that that’s about as absurd as arguing what would hurt more - getting kicked in the left nut or the right nut.

Obama is an intelligent man.  I’m not going to argue that.  He speaks well.  Well, so does Donald Trump, who I’ve seen speak first hand.  Do we want Donald Trump running this country because he speaks well too? Hell no.

The problem with Obama is he’s a perfect example of someone with formal education but no practical experience whatsoever.  Heck, when I came out of college, I had my ideals too until I saw how reality worked.  Obama is completely in over his head and in only a year, has shown he’s completely incompetent.  He has no understanding of economics and he’s the wrong guy to lead us out of the worst recession since the Great Depression.  In summary, wrong man for the job.

Palin on the other hand is average to below average when it comes to brains.  No, it’s not a media conspiracy that’s out to get her.  She doesn’t need the media to show she’s not that bright.  All she has to do is speak.

Hey, I love the fact she gets it when it comes to Second Amendment issues.  I’m stoked.  But that’s one issue.  Right now, our biggest problem in this country is the economy.  We’ve been outsourcing more jobs than we’ve been creating for years now and it’s come back to bite us in the ass.  We’ve had the residential real estate crash.  We’re about to have a commercial real estate crash.  We’ve already had the banking crash which Bush and Obama both bungled and frankly, Palin wouldn’t do any better either.

So we got a smart guy who speaks well but is clueless about reality versus a very average woman who speaks horribly who at least gets one issue.  Yeah.

I really hate sounding cynical as cynicism has NEVER accomplished anything.  Ever.  But allow me to be just this one time.  We had the right man for the job in Ron Paul.  But I’m now convinced America is just too stupid to elect him.

This may surprise a lot of you, but I’m pretty Left-wing when it comes to education.  No, not in the politically correct bullshit that the Left espouses, but funding.

It’s really common sense.  Educated people make more money than non-educated people.  People who make more money pay more taxes.  So increasing education increases tax revenue.

Common sense, right?

I’m well aware this country has overspent.  Hey, I was against the Iraq War from the beginning.  I was against the corporate bailouts from the beginning as well and if I’m not mistaken, I posted not one, but three articles against them.  I’m against foreign aid.  I’m against America being the world’s rent-a-cop.  I’m against the military industrial complex and really think America should get out of just about every foreign entanglement we’re in while every home have a machine gun or a shotgun.  Very simply - YOU are our military and our defense.  Works for the Swiss.  Count how many times they’ve been conquered.

I’m also for cutting welfare to only Vets and people with severe handicaps, and a temporary solution to those who had bad luck.  Two years tops for welfare recipients.

I’m for throwing out all the illegal immigrants as they take more than they give.  Saving 50c on a head of broccoli isn’t worth the resources they drain + the damage they do to our schools and our jails.

Do all those things and you’ll save a ton of money.

But don’t cut education.  It’s our future.

A while back, I posted an article warning people not to buy Toyotas or Lexus.  I was right.  Several models of Toyotas were recalled, but after plenty of deaths and plenty more near deaths.

My question is, how come Lexus weren’t recalled?

This video is very disturbing.  It’s a 911 call made by an off-duty police officer driving his family in a Lexus.  This is their last 52 seconds on Earth.  At the end of this call, all four of them die.
