A Big Dish of Spite...

I'm not usually a McDonald's patron. I prefer Burger King if I must eat fast food, but after seeing the Unhappy Meals and poor execution of PETA propaganda I decided to make a trip to the Golden Arches for some Chicken McNuggets. I entered the fine establishment and was greeted by a clean enviornment with a nice water wall, laughing children, and smiling employee faces. How many other companies are like that? McDonald's is a fine American entity and I am sick to death of PETA's misguided efforts. I believe Bill O'Reilly missed the point in last night's segment. I don't care what message a group puts out, but they had better go through parents instead of seeking to indoctrinate innocent children directly. No one will teach a belief system to my children without my previous examination and consent.

Anyway, I had a great box of crispy, hot chicken with BBQ sauce. It tasted great Ingrid Newkirk! Your squabbles hurt my ears worse than any dying chicken. My only disappointment with McDonald's is that it does not have more animals on the menu.

Let's Talk Health Care Reform...

It's been a while! I spent last month in Guatemala. For me, full time school means full time work. It's rough, but life could always be worse as Hussein Obama and Nancy Pelosi continue to prove.

I just had the opportunity to view the Arlen Spector town hall meeting in Lebannon PA. Here are a few problems I had with it. Arlen Spector is the biggest turncoat in politics right now. He had the nerve to go and lecture a town hall filled with the people who elected him as a Conservative. Shortly after the White House changed parties, so did he. I don't have a problem with someone changing their political viewpoint. Indeed, I hope that the majority of my generation will. What I have a problem with is the fair-weather politics. If he ran as a Republican, he needs to do what he was elected to do until the end of his elected term. THEN if he chooses, run as a democrat. And represent those constituants. What scares me is that politicians are being elected to do one thing, then turning around and doing whatever they want to do. Politicians are elected to do what WE tell them to do. Not what politicians want to do. Unbelievable.

Secondly, I recently had a debate with an old sergeant in the Army. He wants socialized medicine (despite his oath to support and defend the Constitution) and repeated the phrase that there are "Haves" and "Have Nots." He argued that I was one of the "Haves" and that I was responsible for the "Have Nots." My reply: I am not a "Have." I am a producer. I earn. I did not simply "have" my life. It did not appear magically. I sold my soul for the next few years to the military so that I could support my family, so that I could provide them with health care. There are not "Haves" and "Have Nots." There are THOSE WHO EARN and THOSE WHO TAKE. We do have a responsibility to the handicapped. We do not have a responsibility to the lazy.

Third, I just want to mention an observation. When you view the opposing sides of the attendees at Barak Hussein Obama's health care meeting going on in New Hampshire today, which side of the street is waving American Flags? That's all you need to know.
