2009 is coming to an end, quickly. So I have to hurry to get one last word in before time expires. The "Underwear" bomber guy just tried his thing. Considering it was the government agencies that missed this, the Republican outcry is pretty funny. The government response is even funnier, punish the people that fly. It's like being in a class where the teacher screws up and they decide to punish the students.
So because some Nigerian loner wants to gain attention by killing some people, the screws get turned on those of us who simply want to fly from one place to the other.
So how come, when another loner, who wanted to gain attention for killing Americans actually killed Americans...there was no significant response from the government at all? A certainly no outcry from The Republicans.
Seung Hui Cho bought two semi-automatic handguns in 30 days and used them to kill 32 more people on a college campus than the "Underwear Bomber" did by setting his pants on fire.
Some of the Tea Baggers and Neo-Cons will say that "Gun Control" legislation was passed to toughen measures keeping the "diagnosed" mentally ill and convicted felons from purchasing guns, well whoop de do.
The most dangerous "terrorists", the ones most likely to kill Americans, live right here. And they have an arsenal of un-imaginable size at their disposal.
You want to be safe? Get on a plane. You want to worry about terrorists? Go any where else in the good ol' USA.
"We have met the enemy, and he is us" Pogo (look it up)

A long long time since my last blog. Had a small roll going for a little while but then became kinda sick and tired of the whole internet thing. Blogged then stopped. Was on Facebook, now off. But a couple of recent things had me scratching my head so I figured I'd write them down just so I wouldn't forget them.
1) Oral Roberts finally saw that 900 foot Jesus in the sky.
2) I realized that the 300 bucks or so that I sent the Obama campaign was wasted (at least so far)
3) That the real downfall of this society is going to be white "Christian" people who are going to become a far bigger threat ot the existence of the US in the coming years than any terrorists could ever hope to be.
As for Pastor Roberts, he is finally coming to terms with everything he did down here. I imagine him, like Jacob Marley, bound in chains and lock boxes, looking to haunt Joel Osteen and tell him that preaching prosperity is the road to ruin and damnation. Jesus, like Buddha, was a beggar. He depended on others and made due with what he had.
Mister President...shame on you. You really had a chance to turn things around Karma-wise for the good ol' U.S. Instead you let the bankers go into the Fed and walk away with more than they had in the first place. You're letting the Insurance Companies write the "Healthcare" legislation, and now we're gonna be in it knee deep in Afghanistan for a corrupt regime that wouldn't piss on this country if we were on fire. Unless Karzai could piss gas.
Tea Party? Glenn Beck?
Can you say Beer Hall Putsch? The only thing those guys are missing are the brown shirts and taking time out of their marches to beat the crap out of Jews.
These are the people that frighten me. The ones that think it is within their rights to bring assault weapons to rallies. Listen up folks...the book burnings are not far behind, the same for Krystal Nacht, The Fourth Reich and a new form of The Final Solution.
If you think I am going too far with the Nazi stuff, then you haven;t read your history and you haven't paid enough attention to these nut jobs. But you will. They will make you pay attention.
Happy Holidays,
