Palin Palin Palin...

My question of the day is why does this woman still get media time?  Really, I honestly think the media just likes to keep the embarrassment alive.  I mean she comes in at the tail end of the entire process with a gust or flutter of wind, maybe a strong breeze and when it is all said and done she does not know how to quietly go back to her life.  Since the elections a week ago we have not heard nor seem McCain, a man who has gone home to enjoy his time off.  This woman is hungry for the attention she has tasted the golden elixir of national attention and she likes it.  Never again will she be content with just being a soccer mom she wants it all now, hell she is talking about the White House itself.  The said thing is the woman is delusional, can't she see that there is no one in their right mind that would vote for her or even give a shot at the VP job after the mockery of the McCain ticket. 

I feel sorry for here because she actually believes that these people with their cameras and microphones truly care about what she has to say.  Please someone close to her help to open her eyes so that she can see that she is the butt of the Republican jokes.  It is sad to say but she is the new Lewinski.  Anytime someone needs a by-line or space to fill they are going to run her down so that she can say something else ridiculous and further discredit herself and any thing that she may want to do in the future.  as Kenny Rogers once said before he went crazy. "Know when to hold them and know when to fold them."  Sarah honey it is time to fold.

It appears as Stock Market has dropped 631 points in the last two days, the rest of the world is also not faring well.  Germany has announced that they are in the midst of their worst recession in 12 years.  As the china and Japan economies also slump drastically.  The only good thing out of all of this is that the world will be poor right along with us.
 
The world is in for an extended period of sluggish growth,
David Bonderman, founder of private equity firm TPG Inc., said in
Hong Kong today. Central banks in the U.S., U.K. and China are
among those that have lowered benchmark interest rates to
stimulate spending and growth.


And following the California ban on Gay marriage.  As O'Rielly  so elequently stated "it is the black peoples fault that the bill didn't pass"  Lol hellI tell you the truth a black man wins the election now we are responsible for everything.  How Ironic a people who have been criticized for  not having a voice now have all the power.  O'Rielly you're an ass.  But now back to the news Gays all over the US are upset by the outcome of the election day results.  Several states passed anti-gay marriage laws last week.  As far as the issue goes I must say that I am against it.  For more than one reason but still I stand in opposition.  I place this argument right up there with PETA's arguments and Green Peace arguments.

Oh one more thing before I go BIDEN lookout when you go meet the SETH Lord today.  You know you can't trust him and for God's sake don't go hunting with him.


Well I think I have said enough to piss off at least half of my readers today.  Until next time.

Buffet

Today I have no one topic of interest so I will just glance over things as I see them.

But first today I read some sad News, Miriam Makeba aka Mama Afrika died of a heart attack last night after giving a concert in Italy. Makeba was 76 years old. I best remember her for her grand entrance into the US. When she first arrived into the US she was leaving the plane without a top on which was not unusual for her, being from Africa, but you can imagine the reaction that it got back in the 60's. Miriam was a South African folk singer who had been exiled during apartheid. Makeba had a captivating voice and a commanding presence. She will be missed.

Now onto sports, Roger Goddell gets the second ever awarded BAN award. this man is destroying football and turning it into a sport that his mother would have allowed him to play when he was young. If anyone saw the Steelers, Redskins game last Monday you saw the play where Woodley tackled Campbell by slinging him to the ground instead of driving him into the ground with his body weight. As the ref was right over the play and saw no reason to through a flag for unnecessary roughness, the league has once again stepped in and fined another player for playing football. This is getting out of hand, pretty soon you may as well take the pads off and issue flags and call it the NFFL. Football has never been deemed a gentleman's sport. The saddest thing is; now high school and college QB's get hit harder than professional QB's. What next change the rules of pop warner so that when you get to the big time you already know how to hit like a pussy. They say this is to protect the players but honestly how many players get hurt from hits. How many QB's have ever been carted off the field with career ending injuries? The truth of the matter is more players have been put out of the NFL because of the sorry ass turf than from contact. Goddell needs to go back to where ever he came from and leave the game of football alone.
It amazes me that during a time when Mixed Martial Arts is becoming a national past time we have to tone down football where the players are covered in about a thousand dollars worth of padding. It is sickening. The end result is this, Goddell will eventually bastardize the game so much that the fans will stop attending the over priced venues and find something else to waste there money on. Goddell use your head, if it ain't broke leave it the fuck alone.
