to rant, or not to rant....


I've had so many thoughts about what the topics of posts should be. Home, kids, family, politics, events, etc.etc. All of which are verra important to me.

I feel the need to rant politically every now and again, however -- the few lame comments that I have received from some Code Pink loving leftest just irritated me enough that I remember that I don't want to hear what other people think or have to say, and therefore -- should leave them unprovoked. Although, as of late, politics has been my main reading material/interest... and I feel like, fuck 'em -- it's my blog... if you don't like what you see, at least have the nuts to leave your name below your sorry ass comment. **sigh**
My husband looks at me, and just shakes his head, while he gives me the same response he's given me since that very first political conversation. "why do you let them get you so angry?!" My John Wayne, marine is even further right then I am... *shocker* -- but, he's got about 100 times the patience.

Well, Christopher Damon Scott Jones... I'll answer your question.... this is why I get so angry.
Because, I'm proud of what I am.
Because, I have passion, and heart.
Because, my parents taught me to fight for what I believed in.
And, finally... because liberals/leftest/democrats/whatever you want to call them, drop bombs like -- "racists" "bigots" "morons" etc. They group the GOP into this idea that we are all fucking yokels, that chew tobacco and spew bigotry. I take personal offense to that. I am none of those things. I educate myself on the things that are important to me. And, not through our slanted media either.
And, simply because I don't want to be the minority in my own country does not make me a racist. Because I think that welfare should be much more highly monitored, doesn't mean that I think poor people are below me... if you legitimately need state assistance, and can not work... etc.etc. that's all fine and grand but, our system is FLAWED... we hand out money like it's... well, like it's the fucking dole. Because I believe that affirmative action only sets our country further back in time when it comes to race relations does not make me a racist. I believe that the NAACP was once a great thing, which focused on positive, improvement, and bettering of race relations/communications/equality in the US, however... it's become something so negative. Something has to change there, and it's got to come from the inside. No president can fix that.
This is a handful of my beliefs and views. I'm a proud member of the vast conservative conspiracy (can you sense that I am poking fun at myself, and not being literal... I sure as fuck hope so). Now that everyone out there that reads knows what I'm working with.... let me tell you something else. I am not in the mood for debate.

I don't give a crap what you think.

We have a liberal media. I have had to learn to adjust the way that I listen/read things for the last 7 years... I am exposed to a left wing approach almost every day between the New York Times, and MSN, to ABC, CBS, you name it. My only savior is *GASP* fox news. And, we know how all of the democrats feel about Bill "the anti-Christ" O'Reilly. I'll even take Ann Coulter's side on a few issues. Dare I say that out loud?
My point is... something that most liberals don't have to suffer through, is a "Right-Slant" on the news... which all conservatives are forced to swallow.... so, I hear enough of it. I don't need your (whoever this anonymous, too scared to leave their name E-Mailer is) fucking mouth on top of that shit.
And, believe it or not... I am pretty moderate on almost 60% of the issues. If a man wants to marry a man... go right ahead. Men, if you have a problem with it... then marry a woman, don't marry a man. But, really -- it doesn't affect my values, or hurt me in any shape or form. Now, the day that it starts being taught in schools, or my tax dollars are going to their honeymoons... I'll have a gripe. Low taxes, small govt, morals/values... those are the things that are important to me. The safety of my children first and foremost... and what we do in this country over the next 20 years will affect what they must endure during their adolescence and adult years.

Now, do you see? Do you see why I second guess myself on this political point of view?? I get going, and I can't stop.

I'm done. I just wanted to preface the rest of this blog with a big F you if you think that I'm going to stop writing because I've hurt your little feelings. This blog is for those that choose to read it, I'm not forcing it on you... nor, am I asking what you think. So, if you must cram your opinion down my throat through way of e-mail/comments, at least include your name. Or are you too ashamed of yourself?
