"In an effort to critically analyze another piece of pop music, Glenn Beck and his sidekicks reached the conclusion that Bruce Springsteen’s 1984 hit "Born in the U.S.A." is critical of America and, therefore, unpatriotic. In fact, the song was deemed so unpatriotic by the former shock jock’s crew that co-host Pat Gray declared it to be "anti-American." This simplistic version of patriotism appears to leave little room for any criticism of America, its policy, or the behavior of its people.
After Gray revisited Beck’s earlier deconstruction of Woody Guthrie’s "This Land Is Your Land," the gang turned its collective attention to Springsteen, with Gray getting the ball rolling by noting that Fourth of July fireworks displays often include "Born in the U.S.A." in the musical medley. Beck then broke into a spoken word version of the song:…"

You may remember that just a very short time after the State of the Union address I commented about the actions of the Chief Justice at the address. I gave him a pass and said no big deal.
I also, at the time, said that it was sort of stupid to have the court there in the front row but that they could not show any feelings. They should not smile or clap or do anything.
I it might be a good idea for them from now on just watch it on TV and not attend. I said they should not say it was for some reason or place any blame or anything.
Now the Chief Justice, John Roberts, labeled the political atmosphere at the State of the Union address "very troubling." Wow that is such a break with history and tradition that I can not believe that he would say such a thing and on top of that he says it leaves him questioning whether the justices should continue to attend.
Justices just do not make statements like that.. They have a tradition and a history of being very careful what they say and for him to do such a break with tradition is just wrong.
See CNN story
Justices are turning over in their graves right now.
I have just given up on any Republican and on the Republican party. I can only hope and pray that some new party comes along to replace them.
Here are the remarks I made here on January 29th about the State of the Union address.

I have said that if it was in the 18 hundreds that I would vote for Ron Paul (R-Texas) for president. The United States Congress voted to encourage everyone to take part in the 2010 census.
The census is one of the few things in the Constitution of the United States. Ron Paul’s whole platform is that he is just for the Constitution and nothing else. His stand is that if the founding fathers did not call for it and vote for it then he is not for it.
What I would love is for the people of Texas to not answer the census questions. I would love for them to not be counted.
I would love it if they lost all of their house seats or half of them or just a few of them. That would be so fucking funny. It would be great if there was no 14th Texas District. No seat for Ron Paul.
Ron Paul is sort of a joke but next to the rest of the people in the Republican party he seems normal.
I think it is sort of anti-American or un-American to not be for the census.
If we can not count the people and get a little bit of an idea about them how can the nation operate. How do we know if a post office is needed in an area? How do we know if we need to build or expand a VA hospital? The list just goes on and on…
Ron Paul wants to count people period.
Even business and corporations all use the census information. They want to know how many people and what ages and what income to decided if they would build an office, build a store or open a fast food store.
Now if you or I say they don’t need information.. Well what the hell do we know about government… But for a United States Congressman to not want data … Well it just make Ron Paul look like a fool.

I been saying for a long time that Glenn Beck is a total mental case. I fear he is going to hurt himself or others. He needs to see a doctor and he needs to be medicated. They need to make sure he takes his medication.
Now he is very popular with many TV viewers. His show, I find it hard to believe, is very popular. It gets great ratings.
I do not have cable TV and so I do not get Fox "news" or his TV show. From what I have heard he does not have any real advertisers!
Now I have seen this before… I commented on this blog many many years ago about it. Except it was about Rush Limbaugh. Yes, Rush Limbaugh used to be on television. I had a couple of friends that watched his TV show and loved him. They were telling me…begging me to watch Rush Limbaugh. I would say sometimes OK I will watch him until he says something stupid. I would sit about one minute and he would say something stupid and wrong and I would walk away from the TV set.
I told my friends he is not going to be on TV very long. They will take him off the air. They would say you are crazy his show is very popular. Then his TV show was moved to like midnight or one AM. I told them he is going off the air. They said no he is so popular and I told them look he has no advertisers. They would say he has advertisers and they would mention some company I never heard of. I would tell them that.. No he has no real advertisers and he will go off the TV. Well it was not long after that he was taken off of TV.
Do not feel sorry for him he was on the radio and has made millions from radio.

Well the great news was not so great. Pakistan did not get Adam Gadahn the American al Qaeda spokesman. See my post here about it: Adam Gadahn
Now if we would just listen to Glenn Beck he had the right idea. He said that anytime we get our hands on someone like this that right away we should
SHOOT THEM IN THE HEAD
He said to do it right away.. If we had followed his advice then this guy would be dead and in the ground and we would have him dead. I am not sure what we should do when he turned up with new videos.
Now we got this guy who is some farmer or something and we need to listen to our ex-vice president and the Republicans. We just water board the hell out of him. Hell it is not our fault that he looks like Adam Gadahn. It is his fault. Plus he does not believe in Jesus Christ and has a towel on his head … So just water board him until he confesses and it is my understand that if you water board someone they will tell you anything and everything to get you to stop. I know I would.. You even start to water board me and I will confess to being Adam Gadahn and sign or do anything you want.
So we can listen to Glenn Beck and shoot guys like this in the head RIGHT AWAY or we can listen to our ex-vice president and the Republicans and water board them and then ship there ass off to Gitmo.
So it is not big deal when we get the wrong guy.

I just installed Adobe CS4. I installed the 30 day trial. I can not afford to buy it so in 30 days I will have to remove it. It is nice. I think it runs about $300.00 but college students can get it at a lower price.
Since I am going to have it for 30 days I am going to work on a few of the mastheads for my blogs and try and do a few things with it.
I still got my head cold and do not feel like doing much. Not even messing with working on images. After all these years I should be a master of working with images but I never do the hard things. I just do the simple things. If I have to look in a book or something to see how to do it … I just do not do it.
That could be the story of my life.

Tom DeLay knows the American worker and he knows why the unemployment rate is so high. It is because Americans are lazy ass mother fuckers. The reason the unemployment rate is so high is because some workers have had unemployment benefits. That is why there are almost 10% of Americans with out jobs.
Tom DeLay and the Republicans have the answers. Let the unemployed get hungry and have their children crying because they need food and those lazy ass fat Americans will go out and get a job.
The Republicans have been cutting taxes on the rich for years so that those people could create jobs for those workers. The Republicans have been giving tax breaks to the corporations to create jobs for Americans.
What does the American worker want? He wants full time jobs. He wants a job with health benefits. He wants a wage that he can live on. Some of the worst (mostly communist) want a union.
Thank God for men like Tom DeLay. A great Republican that knows what the American worker needs and deserves. Tom DeLay knows that you cut taxes and give more money to the rich and that they create the jobs.
You want to get people back to work? Do away with unemployment benefits.

Left wing liberal college scientists lie again. They lie about everything. You can not believe any person with an education. No this lie is not about the so called "global warming."
This lie is in a CNN story called "Scientists reaffirm theory that giant asteroid killed dinosaurs."
"(CNN) — A team of scientists has agreed that a giant asteroid killed off dinosaurs and a majority of other species on Earth more than 65 million years ago.
The researchers analyzed evidence and agreed it supports a single-impact theory first proposed 30 years ago on the cause of the mass extinction.
Since 1980, scientists have gathered an overwhelming amount of evidence that shows a single asteroid about 6 miles in diameter and traveling at 45,000 miles a second, slammed into the Gulf of Mexico, said Richard Norris, a paleoceanographer at the University of California San Diego.
The impact caused a crater 24 miles deep and 125 miles wide, according to Norris, who was part of the research team…"
If you believe in Jesus Christ our lord and savior and if you believe in his holy word as written in our blessed bible and if you have been home schooled then you know that they are wrong because the earth is only 6,000 years old and so an asteroid could not have hit here 65 million years ago.
In fact using the Scripture we know for a fact that the earth is only 6,000 years old. God created the earth in about 4000 BC.
These lies are why the people of the book need to take over local boards of education and why they need to make the United States the Christian nation it was founded to be.

"You can read all about it HERE. Luckily, most of these measures failed or were tabled. If you think voting for a republican this year is a good thing and will save your Medicare or Social Security, think again. The republicans don’t give a shit about you. All they care about is their lobbyists who work hard for Wall Street, okay? They would love nothing more for Medicare and Social Security right now to be in the hands of the private sector, you know, no different than how the current health insurance companies are acting: RAISING YOUR RATES BY 30-40% A YEAR AND GIVING YOU LESS AND LESS ALL TO IMPRESS THE INVESTORS OF THESE COMPANIES!
The insurance companies have already said that they will raise American’s insurance rates by 40-50% whether health care reform passes or not. All they care about is the bottom line which is profit and they know a strong public option or single payer will be their deathblow, but do we honestly care about their well-being at this point after all they’ve put the average American through? They’ll find something else to insure (Hey! Maybe they can insure food like Foodinsurance.com advertises on Glenn Beck’s radio program!) or the lower level people will end up working for the government’s insurance option where they’ll find themselves actually doing good in people’s lives rather than finding any excuse not to pay for an American’s surgery etc! See? Could turn out to be a good thing…"
