I'm pissed off. Those assholes in France have outdone themselves. We see now why they were so adamant about not going to war against Iraq. Those traitors were giving confidential information to Iraqi officials about meetings between U.S. and French officials. We see who's side they are on. As the President said "you're either with us, or against us." France has made that choice. Never mind that we're the only reason they still speak French there instead of German. Thanks a lot, you back-stabbing bastards. I hope there is a major catastrophy in France, so that we can tell them "fuck no" when they grovel for aid and assistance. They don't deserve our help any more. They are not our ally. They are not our friends. We should put a wall around the country and let them fester in their own waste.
I'm still pissed. Those asshole neighbors of France, Belgium, have gone too far as well. They believe that they have international jurisdiction over every other sovereign nation and that they alone can decide what's right and wrong in the world. Germany's step-child, Belgium, created an International Criminal Court in 1993 and expected everyone to just let them trump their sovereignty. Our country was smart enough not to sign on that treaty, and if we'd had, we'd certainly pull out of it by now. To show how bad this abomination is, they are entertaining a lawyer's request to try Gen. Franks for "war crimes" that 10 or 12 Iraqis claim were commited in their country, albeit not by Gen. Franks himself. They are accusing our military, which suffered over 125 deaths liberating them from a ruthless dictator, of war crimes. One such crime was a bomb or missile that landed in a market. I've seen the news, and I remember them saying that the missile was actually an Iraqi missile that was fired at coalition planes and fell back on the market. Hussein even fired the man responsible for it. So how could we be responsible for that? The truth is that this is a vain attempt for the European opponents to inflict the damage that they were unable to inflict through diplomatic corridors. There is no evidence of any war crimes committed by any U.S. military personnel, (CNN has done more against the Iraqi people than our military) and if there was evidence, they would be tried in this country by our courts. Belgium has no jurisdiction, and they are admittedly biased against our involvement in Iraq. Therefore, they can hardly be neutral in their judgement of our troops. We should pull all U.S. personnel out of Belgium immediately. I mean everyone. NATO personnel, any military personnel, and all ambassadors. The time has come to wash out hands from Belgium. Once again, you're either with us or against us. They're letting their stance be known. We should cease to recognize them as a country until such time as they reverse their position. An economic embargo should be immediately put in place barring all Belgian goods from our shores.
PC has gone too far. I just heard on the news that some states (like California, which has some of the worst laws on the planet) are making changes to students textbooks that astound me. Gone are refernces in history books to the term "Founding Fathers" as being gender-biased. Big, fat, hairy deal. Let's face it - this country was founded by men. They fought the war. They funded it. Yes, women played a part. But this was the 1700's, and women weren't equals with men back then. That's called HISTORY. It's what happened back then. Today we let our women fight in battle, albeit not completely on equal terms with men. But to say that we should stop referring to the men who started this country as "Founding Fathers" because of gender bias is almost the same level of stupidity as refusing to call the sky blue out of deference to the other colors. They were men! Why not call them fathers? They did the work that paved the way for these ass-clowns in California to be even to vote on the issues. Doesn't that mean anything? Also, banning picutres of soda, pizza, and hotdogs on the grounds that they aren't nutritious is also stupid. They aren't GOOD nutrition, but they are nutritive, by any accepted definition in use today. They want to remove references to Mt. Rushmore as being insensitive to Indians. Well, let's face it - we've been REAL insensitive to them in our history. The reason that they live in small areas of deserts today is that we killed most of them, and put the rest is unwanted areas. That isn't insensitive? We need to be REAL in this country, and teach out children how things really happened. If not, all of the sensitivity issues they want to keep in place will be lessons lost on future generations. One of the reasons that people have sensitivity to Indians now is that we have been so brutal on them in the past. If we don't teach about junk food, how can students make choices? We should teach them all of the facts, not just the ones that a few socialist elitists think are important. To paraphrase FoxNews's creed, our job is to report, theirs is to decide. We're not supposed to teach only one side of things, but rather we should teach all sides, and let the students learn right from wrong and grow and learn like they should. When you only teach one side, the ignorant vacuum left creates an air of mysticism and curiousity that tempts too many children to stray from good morals. You don't educate children about smoking by banning all references to it - you teach them by mentioning it, and telling them how it will kill them. They are educators - so educate, you damn bunch of losers. Let's see if you can get the average kid to the point where they don't need a picture of a hamburger on the register of a fast-food restaurant. Let's shoot for some modest gains - like teaching children how to read or write. Then, let's teach them about basic sciences, so you can't get 98% of kids to agree that "di-hydrogen monoxide" (H2O) should be banned. The problem is that we're using scare tactics to make kids fear their future. That's what the environmental crowd is trying to do. They don't educate - they just scare young people. Any basis of factual evidence is replaced with buzz-words and warnings. If we live in such a dangerous time, then why has life expectancy almost doubled in the last one hundred years? Thos PC people really piss me off. We don't have "snowpeople" - they're called snowmen. Hotdogs are an important source of meat proteins, and our country was founded by a bunch of slave-owning, rich, white Christians. That's just how it is. Get over it.
One of the reasons I'm all shook up. There was a 4.9 magnitude earthquake on the Alabama-Georgia line early this morning. While I slept through it, (I'd sleep through a grenade attack, but I wake every time Baby Spooge cries) it woke Mrs. Spoogeworld out of her sleep. My friend Shai who moved to CA hoping to ride an earthquake is all up in arms because he just moved from the Atlanta area. Tough luck, Shai. We have everything California has, except mudslides, gray air, power shortages, high prices for gas, and Nancy Pelosi. We had Cynthia McKinney, but she's going to amuse us all by running for President. She should have tried to become the Palestinians first Prime Minister - she'd have gotten more votes. Cynthia Mckinney will get 2 votes for President, since her father also votes.
Asshole alert! Somebody stop the presses. Another skid-mark has emerged from the sphincter of Howard Dean. He was quoted as saying "We won't always have the strongest military." Is this the guy you want as Commander in Chief? If he had never said this, he'd STILL be too stupid to be President, but this just confirms his inadequecies. He has no clue. He's battling with Kerry to see which candidate can be the most offensive. Kerry's shocking defensiveness shows his immaturity, and he is going to guy himself the Presidency with his wife's fortune. The bad news for him is that he continues to open his pie-hole. Democrats love to accuse Bush of being stupid, but I listen to Kerry and Dean, and they almost sound like morning disk-jockeys. They've come out criticizing everything in sight, and they've only offered limited ideas of their own, most of which could at best be called a strategy of "let's make the government bigger and pass the cost onto the taxpayers". They both seem to favor the notion of socialized medicine, unaware that in places where it's in practice the standard of care is significantly affected adversely. Ask anyone in Canada about socialized medicine - when they're not coming to our country for medical procedures. Thanks to socialized medicine, it takes 17 weeks to get an MRI in Canada - here we get them the same day or the next usually. Kerry wants to make sure that everyone has access to healthcare, by making employers pay for it. We all know that that cost gets passed down to the rest of us through reduced jobs (they keep their budgets constant, and increased costs are mitigated through job cuts) and higher costs. If you want to see this country go into another death spiral like we had under Carter, just elect one of these two losers. I guarantee they'll have unemployment hitting 18% in no time.
I want a refund! President Bush, himself not immune to bouts of stupidity, has asked Congress to spend $15,000,000,000.00 of OUR MONEY in countries in Africa and the Carribean to combact AIDS and HIV-related illnesses. I have a better idea. How about "fuck no"? I didn't work my ass off all of last year to see some nit-wit give it away to people in other countries. I'm sorry if I sound harsh or callous, but that's my money, and it was taken from me by force. I didn't ask to have it sent to Africa or Jamaica. If I want to donate to charity, let me do it to whom i chose, and when I chose. I know that human suffering elsewhere in the world is bad, but I don't think that it's up to the Federal Government to take money from me that I've earned and give it away to other countries. I'm mad as hell that he is so free with spending my money.
