Oh, they have done it again.

On MSNBC I saw a story about a small town in PA. called Hazelton. Apparently a judge in Allentown proclaimed that the towns illegal immigration laws are unconstitutional. The town had developed a policy that is mimicked by towns and cities all across the US.

Simply put the town has imposed fines on landlords who rent to illegal immigrants and deny business permits to companies that give them jobs. Another measure in the act would have required tenants to register with City Hall and pay fro a rental permit. Now this issue does not seem to raise any kind of problems as far as I am concerned.

The Senate is unable to come out with any kind of policy that has any teeth to it. At least this small town and others like it have come up with a solution. If you are going to be an illegal then you should not be allowed or afforded the same rights and freedoms as the rest of us. Take a look at the surge of convicts who are about to be released in the general populace, they have lost many of their constitutional rights by law. Sex offenders are required to report in and let their neighbors know that they live in the neighborhood. But yet these measures are constitutional. Why should it be different for illegal immigrants, these people have committed a crime no matter how you look at it illegal is illegal. The fact that they make then pay for and obtain a rental permit is just a way of tracking who the illegals are in your town, not to mention adding additional revenue to the town. The argument that is made time and time again is that the government has no idea on how to find the illegals in the country. Well it seems to me that they really don't want to. Because if they did then measures like this would be implemented nation-wide and accepted by the Senate as law.

I would wager that if these tactics where put into place to track muslims and people of middle eastern descent, they would just call it the Patriot Act, and there would be no questions asked.

Mis-education

Well now time does repeat itself after all this is a circular existence. Lets get straight to the point. "No Child Left Behind", the idea that a president, who was what we would call a marginal student, would come up with a plan for education is baffling. The worse part is that we as a people backed it. This path of destruction is ludicrous. Anyone who works in the school system should be able to tell you that this plan and program is doing nothing more than crippling our students. Now I know there are people who will say that is ridiculous, but honestly the program is doing more harm than good.

I remember when I spoke to my son about school and the grading period, and testing. He told me that they spent 3 or 4 weeks of the quarter studying for the Standardized tests so that they could be ready and pass the test when it is given. I asked about the other subjects and he said we don't spend much time on them. OMG! now our children are being coached to pass a test so that the school systems can keep their federal funding coming in, and the principals can keep their jobs. No one is really concerned about what the kids are learning but only securing their jobs.

A study that was conducted recently found out that 44 percent of school districts nationwide have made deep cutbacks in social
studies, science, art and music lessons in elementary grades and have
even slashed lunchtime. All of this just in order to coach for the Federally mandated standardized tests. Once again the PREZ has used his Hitler like power to control the masses and to ensure the demise and destruction of this country.

Well I am tired and losing focus so I am going to end here , but this is by no means the end of this topic or rant.

At it again.

Yesterday the Prez was at it again. Spreading the fear and turmoil of the 1000 days war. Yesterday while speaking to a group of military personnel at Charleston Air Force Base, the Prez said that the Al Qaeda in Iraq are the same as the ones who attacked the US on September 11. He used this point to establish why the US needs to continue it's fight in Iraq and not to be so hasty in returning the troops back home. Now this statement as a result of now unclassified information is still some somewhat misleading and confusing. First of all during the September 11th fallout all fingers pointed to Bin Laden and the mastermind behind the attacks. It also lead us to go into Afghanistan to fight the terrorist who where the ones we said committed the atrocities. So If I remember correctly as a show of good measure we were unable to find anyone in Afghanistan so as a consolation prize we stopped off in Iraq in order to clean up some old family business.

It stands to reason that the current aggression and increase in Jihadist is a direct result and retaliation to our continued fighting in Iraq. The thing that people who do not understand Islam need to realize is that Jihad ( which means a holy war) is a direct result to Muslims feeling as if they are being persecuted and it is a sacred duty for all Muslims to fight to free their oppressed brothers. So in understanding this it helps us to understand why now there are Terrorists in Iraq from all over the world and not just from Afghanistan and Iraq. Also the Prez is trying to spin his elaborate yarn and make us believe that the forces in Iraq are Al Qaeda, this is true but there are also other factions fighting in Iraq, some are even rival factions who have joined together in the midst of this Jihad.

The bottom line is the only way to stop the fighting is for the US to pull it's troops out of Iraq. And for one minute please do not sit back and believe the BS about if we do not fight them over there they will come over here. This is absurd, honestly they do not want to fight with the US. And for good reason , they know that there is no way for them to win such a fight. The irreparable damage that has been done to the image of the US is staggering when you think of it. Americans are now looked at as a reflection of our crazy ass Prez. That is like you being remembered for the actions of that one crazy-assed relative you have.

As I stated yesterday the person that takes on the unholy task of following up this administration is going to run an administration filled with animosity and world resentment. And in an effort to try and repair the damages done by the sycophant who is now in office they will come across as being weak and draw scrutiny from the masses. It is a lose lose situation.

Ummmm

Ok I thought I was done for the day but This couldn't be resisted. I read a funny article today in the Bloomberg News by Ann Woolner, simply titled "President Bush Tells Congress, Because I Said So". In her article she pointed out the fact that anyone under Bush is basically protected by Bush and there isn't a damn thing anyone can do about it. lol so true. Basically Bush has told the country, like his wayward children, go screw yourself. I can do what I want. This is funny on so many levels. Basically Bush is setting up the next president for a very hard time, the next person to sit in that chair is gong to get beat down so badly that they are not going to want to think about running again. And if it is a democrat oh well it plays into their hands. Basically the Prez knows that there is nothing that anyone can do to him at this point he has a little over 16 months to go. this whole thing reminds me of a memprable quote:

" I run shit around here. You just live here. Yeah, that's right, you
better walk away. Go on and walk away... 'cause I'm gonna' burn this
motherfucker down. King Kong ain't got shit on me." - Denzel Washington --Trainging Day

Another one

Today I was reading a story about MIchael Vick. The Article was basically saying that it looks as if he could miss the season this year amidst the allegations of the dog fighting. This is sad just another young black man being used up and thrown away by this country's ills. My gripe here is the simple fact that the Humane society had started hearing mike name attached to dog fighting back in 2004. Mind you that this is the season that Vick almost lead his team to the Superbowl and he was one of the biggest draws in the NFL. However the Humane society alleges that thsy didn't have enough evidence to pursue in the matter. Now all of a sudden 3 years later after the rise of Vince Young and Reggie Bush, (the new faces of the NFL) they have everything they need to tear down the Vick Experience. To me this is all about timing.

Being a conspiracy theorist I honestly think this is simple a matter of Vick out living his usefulness and no longer being of importance to those individuals with the money. The commissioner Mr. Goddell has order mike to stay away from practice and camp until the league can look into the situation closely. Please understand that Mike has not been tried or found guilty of anything at this time, but yet he is being punished. There have been guys tied to shockingly more serious allegations than this but yet they where allowed to play until they where found guilty. What I really would like to know is if he is found not guilty of all charges how will the league repay him for throwing him to the wolves and treating him like a convict?

I believe it is time for parents and athletes alike to start looking closely at this issue. How much longer are we going to get on the Auction Block and sale ourselves until we are deemed unnecessary or better yet let in a state of waste where as we can not walk up and down steps and no one cares to help. This is as old as time itself as long as we keep affixing a price to our foreheads we will continue to be treated like livestock.

Now as far as my personal views on this matter go. Hell it is a dog. I am not a pet lover but damn If Vick was holding bum fights in his front yard and airing them on the internet he would more than likely be in less trouble. Those people kill me running around fighting for the rights of animals. wait a minute lets think about that statement the rights of animals? Rights are a man made idea not anything set down by the higher being . So how is it that these rights are granted to animals. If a coyote was found in your backyard and you shot it would anyone come running, no. but if your neighbor comes into your backyard and you shoot him now you have to answer up. The difference is clear. The life of an animal is worth less than the life of a person and that is the truth of it. But yet these people run around trying to tell you differently and now they want to ruin a persons life over it. I say to Hell with them.

Umm I lost my focus...I can't remember where I was going with this so I guess I'll just shut up.

I had No Idea.

Who would have believed that people actually read this thing. I have had several people ask me what is going on. Well this is to all of you (at least 3) that read my Blog. Thank you and just because you asked I am here to make you think, grimace and laugh all over again.

Well I guess I picked a good time to start back up there is so much to talk about or more importantly to rant about. I will start with the obvious Politics. Yesterday Senator Feingold came out once again trying to rally support for a bill to Censure the Prez. In case you do not remember Feingold was the one last year who was trying to get charges brought against the Prez for his wiretapping policy. I am among the ones who feel that the Prez and the Administration need to be held accountable for the actions of the last 8 years. At one time I believed that we needed to impeach the Prez. But after growing up and looking at the big picture, I realize that that would be a major mistake.

If there is to be an impeachment I feel that we as a country would be worse off. In all honesty nothing would change, we would be in the same boat if Ronald Mcdonald was the President. The enemy to the country and the People is no other than "Tricky" Dick Cheney. or you Star Wars geeks may know him as the "Emperor" Senator Palpatine. By whatever name you give him this man is scary. I used to think him a feeble old man who was known for having a heart attack right before the elections. But now I see him for what he truly is , "The Puppet Master". This man makes Jim Henson look like an amateur sock puppet player. Cheney has been in the background for many of Americas darkest moments. HE has been in the shadows doing his part to keep America umm free.

Cheney who didn't go to Vietnam because he said and I quote " I had other priorities in the '60s other than military service." WTF! You mean it is that easy to get a deferment from the Draft? He had received 5 draft deferments during the time of the Vietnam War. He did all he could do to keep out of the War, Yet Ironically he has made his fortune profiting on war. This is a man who has no qualms about sending others children off to die for a trivial cause, yet when the ball was in his court he ran and hid like a coward.

In summation Cheney is too scary to leave in charge of this country or any other. This is a man who rivals Don Vito Corleone himself, He is as Gangster as they come. I mean how much power does a person have when he can shoot someone in the face and not only not be charged with anything but also have the victim and the family of the victim come out publicly and apologize to him. ???? Now that is Gangsta.

Well like someone said a while back with a President named Bush and VP named Dick how could you not expect to get fucked.

Until tomorrow, If there is a tomorrow, I am out.
