A daily blog in defense of liberalism and the President.
I can say there isn’t much more ironic and silly than watching stuffy white guys call a Latino woman a racist. If there was true cosmic justice, Sen. Jeff Sessions head would have exploded when he was questioning Sotomayor. Did you know if you GOOGLE Jeff Sessions one of the options that comes up is "Jeff Sessions Racist". Yet this evil man who thinks making fun of black people is ok, and wasn’t opposed to the KKK until he found out some of them smoked weed, is calling out a decent kind woman who will be an asset to the bench. The state of Alabama should be ashamed that they have elected a piece of waste, such as Sessions, as there Senator; I hope they correct that error in the future so they are not forever a constant joke. I will say Lindsey Graham came across as a decent Senator who actually acknowledged the truth and even admitted she would be confirmed unless she had some kind of blowup. I’ll be glad when these hearings are over and she has been voted onto the court so that America can get a new prospective and a judge who actually thinks about the consequences of her decisions; not that Ruth Bader Ginsburg doesn’t but she could definetly use the help! Also why is empathy a bad thing? I guess when you have never had any it is something you just don’t understand.
So McCain says President Obama was wrong on the Stimulus then and now. I say fuck off John McCain. I know we the taxpayers are paying your GOD DAMN paycheck, and without the Stimulus millions of American families whould be on the streets and homeless without the extention on unemployment benefits and food stamps. People like John McCain who has never, and yes NEVER, collected a check that didn’t come from Uncle Sugar, is in complete disconnect from what is going on around this counrty and how bad this economic downturn has been! As for the roads and infastructure money, didn’t he, on his "Strait Talk Express", notice that our roads and bridges are falling apart! Hey John it actually takes money to fix shit, so please once again, SHUT THE FUCK UP!
So Liz Cheney is out defending her Dark Lord father. Not suprising, but they sound like a broken record. The democrats don’t want to stop Al Qaeda she says. Really? I kind of remember her father and "W" ending there search and war on Al Qaeda and beginng a new war against a country that hadn’t attacked us. If anyone is soft on terrorists it is Dick Cheney and his lot, who were more interested in conquering foreign counties than worrying about national defense. So Liz can lie all she wants, but the facts speak for themselves, I just wonder sometimes why the mainstream media never mentions them.
Finally I come to the Philosopher of the Week, Lao Tzu. Lao Tzu was a chinese philosopher and father of Taoism, which translated means "The Way". Lao Tzu said, "Be Content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are. When you realize there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you." I think this means, be comfortable in yourself and you will find happiness within you. Lao Tzu also said, "Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage." That is just beautiful and speaks for itself, never forget to love and be loved, it is the most precious thing in life. I want to say sorry about being away yesterday, we had a tragedy in the family, and until tomorrow goodbye.....
