After much thought and soul searching....

Hello all three of you. I know it's been a while since my last post, sadly enough, it's because I don't care. Recent events have caused me to re-evaluate my position on many issues: life, money, and various other social-political stances. After all of this re-examination I've decided that all this time I've been ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. Yep, no lie. I've looked at every possible angle, and turns out I've been right all along. That being said, you should change your views to match mine, if any of your views differ from mine in any way, change them now. Moving on. Yesterday President Bush nominated John Roberts as the next Supreme Court Justice. Already there are whines and moans from the other side of the isle. "He's against abortion", they say, "He's not mainstream", "He eats red meat", and "He doesn't think the TV show Friends is funny." All concerns, yes, but I pose this question...who cares? Really. Lets say that this afternoon, every Justice on the bench retires. In their place the president nominates, and the Senate confirms, the following people to the bench:

Mr. T
The Unibomber
Little Richard
Saddam Hussein
Rosie O'Donnell
Darth Vader
&
Hilary Clinton

Their first day of the job is a busy one. They outlaw cars with four wheels, make air travel illegal (think that was Mr. T's doing), change the legal drinking age to 8, outlaw heterosexual marriage, ban antibiotics, and determine that we've all been interpreting the 2nd ammendment all wrong. They decided that instead of "the right to keep and bear arms" the actual meaning is "the right to keep bear arms." Upon this decision they order a mass bear killing to support their "Guns for Bear arms" trades, happening all over the country.

Now, these changes are to take effect immediately. How many of you would actually follow through with them? Hang on, let me re-phrase that. How many of you, being of sound mind, would actually follow through with them? Uh-huh, thought so, not a single one. My point is this, what is one man, sitting on a bench, going to do to us. Now before I get tons (two) of emails telling me "Well what about Roe v Wade?" or "What about the new eminent domain thingy?" I say this. If you decide to kill a baby, you won't be answering to the supreme court. And I live in a fairly remote area, the government wouldn't have any use for my land, so I don't care. What I do care about is the amount of resources our government is gearing up to expend on confirming the new justice. Let me see, we're in the middle of a war, there are diseases that haven't been cured (got a theory on that one too, watch for it soon), people going hungry (I'm not talking about bums here, those lazy slobs can work for food), and what amounts to an invasion of illegal immigrants. Where does questioning a squeaky clean lawyer rank on that list? I understand that politics involves quite a bit of pandering, wheel spinning, and ultimately B.S.ing, but really, I'm completely worn out by it. We need my 10th grade english teacher in DC. Anytime our congressmen/women start the tomfoolery, she'll come by and verbally assail them until they either go insane or get back to work, both work for me. Ok, I'm out.

Peace...through superior firepower.
