Those who know war the best want war the least.  (referring to politicians with no experience in war dragging America into the Iraq War)  -- by Steve Everett on February 6th, 2010.

I have a fear. I have a fear that America may be too stupid for Obama. I hope I'm wrong. I hope the American voters are wise enough to understand his wise leadership in the elections in 2010, 2012 and 2014.

Fossils fuels are doing to our planet's lungs, the atmosphere, what cigarette smoking has done to human lungs.  -- by Steve Everett on February 3rd, 2010

Nobody can defeat Obama one on one, politically speaking.

Nobody can defeat Obama one on one, politically speaking. If the American people get the time and take the opportunity to listen to Obama debate ANYONE in the GOP then the outcome time and time again will be... A SLAM DUNK.

Obama ripped a new butthole for 3 or 4 of those GOPer's a few days ago who had they foolish audacity to test him in an open debate and Fox News had to cut the cameras off a few minutes in to the slaughter.

I've got nothing against the Republican Party. I believe our nations needs TWO strong political parties to function at our best... but right now the leadership in the Grand Ole Party is a sad sight to see. It's not very hard to understand why Gerald Ford, in his final years, would have little to do with his own party dismayed by what it had become.

Is it time to make Haiti and American territory?

I believe fame, as we have known and understood it to be for many decades, is over. For some reason when we saw an electronic representation of someone in a small box known as a television we perceived those folks as famous. Now everyone can have their own channel online... and everyone can be a star!

Farmville is now bigger than Twitter? 70 million active players? I'm not one of them :-) but to each his own. The company now has an estimated net worth of $1 BILLION dollars with the creator, Mark Pincus, reported to be making about $250 million a year off the game.

It's time to restore democracy to America and end the abuse of Senate filibusters and allow our representatives to vote on legislation.

Some people seem to have short memories. Here's something to jog your memory. Bush 43 came in with a $230 billion dollar budget surplus and left with a $1.3 trillion dollar budget deficit.

Prediction: So now Obama comes in with the $1.3 trillion dollar deficit and an economy in shambles but I still believe if he gets eight years he will more than cut that deficit in half by the end of his second term.

No sanctions for lawyers who authorized torture. How can this happen in America?

US Wind Power generation records impressive growth.

Does AT&T stand for AT&Trash? Where's my signal dammit! And if I have any AT&T friends who see this... sorry. You know everyone always has to pick on the big dog. That being said I do believe the company definitely needs to step its game up a notch or two. I mean, come on, I'm in the middle of freakin' town right now and still can't get a signal.

Bloomberg and New York City are embarrassing all of America. Why can't they put their own criminals on trial?

Video: Obama and GOP leaders discuss and debate current issues

Republican, Democrat, Independent, Conservative, Liberal, Progressive, however you classify yourself stay informed. Fox News and MSNBC both will give you their slants primarily based on where they're getting their advertising dollars. Learn to think critically. Learn to think independently. Learn to separate fact from fiction.

As big of a fan as I am of Obama I'm just as big of an unfan (I know it's not a word) of Joe Biden. Don't get me wrong. Seems like a great fellow but OMG I think I'd rather be tared and feathered than listen to Biden speak for over like 10 seconds.

Riddle: Imagine you're in the middle of a jungle surrounded by Tigers with nothing to defend yourself with. What should you do? Answer below.





Answer: Stop imagining

A few iPad thoughts

I may change my mind -- if I change my mind -- and buy and use one of these but right now here are a few of my thoughts on the product Apple is finally ready to sell after 7 or 8 years of rumors.

The iPad is mostly iSad.

Riddle: Combine and iPad and a physical keyboard and what do you have? Answer: A laptop computer! A laptop computer? Wonder when some innovative and industrious entrepreneurs will design and bring such a product to the market. Oh sorry, somebody did that... about 20 years ago.

The "internet in your hands" seems to be the phrase the Apple marketers really, and I mean REALLY, like.

But make up your mind for yourself. Watch the Apple spin on their latest product at http://www.apple.com/ipad/.

It is good to see Steve Jobs back and looking relatively healthy. I do sometime wonder though if he's really as nerdy as he acts when doing product demos. Could be just marketing, or could be the real Jobs personality. He's done some brilliant things since being back with Apple... but I'm kind of feeling like he probably peaked out creatively with the iPod and iPhone. Not a bad legacy to have though, huh?

Just watched some more Australian Open tennis. Can't stand Serena Williams. She can really be a b*tch at times. Hope she never wins another match :-)

Sharapova out in the first round? What's up with that?

Who's going to stop Federer? Nobody.

What the heck is that Venus Williams is wearing in the Australian Open? SMH (shaking my head). She does have some sexy legs though so I guess I'll just say... you go girl.

C.O.L.T.S. COLTS COLTS COLTS. Peyton Manning is a genius. Although the Titans are my top team... but, they're not around right now. And hopefully this is the last we'll have to see, and hear, from Brett Favre. Decent football player but something about that guy annoys the heck out of me. Colts by ten in the Super Bowl.

Ben Berwanke, I mean Bernanke, needs to go. He's done enough damage.

What's the greatest coaching job in the world? Indianapolis Colts. Just stand on the sideline and whatever you do don't bother Peyton Manning.

Conan or Leno? Conan. Leno go away, go way, way away. But then again, does anybody really watch late night tv talk shows anymore?

Lebron or Kobe? Lebron. Kobe, never liked him, probably never will. What an ass that dude is. Lebron is cool. I think the with his size and just the way he looks he's probably been taking the best steroids money can buy for years but he's still a cool dude.

French may attempt to forbid veils

Reports out today that the French government wants to prevent Muslim women from wearing veils. Really. Really Sarkozy. You actually want to tell the women in your country what to wear?

I'm not a believer in any religion but I am a believer in tolerance. A believer for tolerance for people who do or do not believe in a religion and a believer in tolerance for what type of clothes others choose or choose not to wear.

But really Sarkozy. One of the biggest problems your nation has is a few women want to wear veils? Are you going to also prevent women from wearing veils at traditional Christian weddings? Let me know how that works out for you Sarko.

The French made just about as big of a mistake in electing Sarkozy as America did in electing Bush 43. I have a hunch the French won't make the mistake of electing this zero twice as America did with the Boy George.

Afghanistan needs to get rid of Karzai.

Afghanistan really needs to get rid of this clown Karzai. The only long term solution for this country and conflict is education for the youth. That's also the only long term solution for the long ongoing tensions between Palestine and Israel. Educate as many as possible of these Palestinian and Israeli children together and over the years and decades tensions will greatly decrease. Kids that play together will grow up to be adults that can work and live together.
