Good and Evil: Alternative perspectives make for right choices in life

It’s a vivid memory from my teen years that has given me some insight to the “why’s” of good and evil, war and peace, black and white, and many diverse personalities along my road to growth. One Sunday morning, as I sat quietly in church—of course I was quiet, I was a teenager and almost asleep—the pastor began to talk about why God would allow evil to compete with good. He went into great detail as he explained that we could not possibly know evil if we had never met a good person or situation. We would not know the benefits of peace if we had not experienced war. We would have a very one-sided view of life if everyone were the same color. As his sermon progressed, the pastor was asked why God would allow children to die when theirs is only innocence?

The pastor stumbled a bit with this question; eventually answering that God did not cause them to die but allowed them to be taken out of a situation that would be impossible for their future life. He went on to explain that God didn’t choose the circumstances that lead to these children’s bodies being beyond repair, that was man’s doing, but he had to decide what was best for the child.

In the end, it comes to us that we are responsibility for our lot in life. Most individuals are given the basics that should lead them to a productive life, but some squander the benefits their taught, or negate the benefits they are incapable of seeing. The child that closes his mind to education, misses the greatest opportunity of all; the ability to attend, to become, or to improve his life through knowledge, his world will forever close the doors of growth due to ignorance. However, that child will not be aware of his failure because he did not experience what education would have given him.

The child that walks through life with a chip on his shoulder will only increase the weigh of his burdens by ignoring the helping hands of others. If you offer no man, woman, or child help, you will be trapped by your lack of interest; however, if you place others above yourself on the scale, you will reap greater rewards through the joy that you have given.

Anything that has a positive side when done will have a negative side if left undone. Balance is where the world finds her compassion. Diversity is where life finds joy. Life is what you lead while you’re busy making others happy. Happiness is what you reap when you’re life has been lead to benefit those around you. Appreciation of life is what you learn when you realize all things have their place in the Universe of Man.

Economic Slump: Feeling healthy yet

The Wanker-in-Chief, well known to one and all as Obumma, is pushing his health care reform on ABCs proud network of misfits. Executives at ABC said they had the right to chose who would be able to debate the urgent need for Health Care Reform, and who would not…they chose not to have any real debaters allowed by nixing the ads from those who are showing the recipients of Socialized Medicine in countries where it already exist, telling the truth about their socialized system. It’s so very hard to push a $2 trillion plan on people with the sick and injured of other countries talking about the plan as laden with major flaws.

Here’s an idea Mr. Obumma, take two aspirin and call my doctor who won’t answer because he has retired, in the morning. It’s simple really, control the health of the people and you control their very existence…it’s a must have for the progressive/socialist liberally democratic party. From reports on the government run Medicaid program, yesterday, Medicaid is some $300 billion plus in hock and the government does not have the money to solve that little disaster, but they would love to add another $2 trillion program to the existing mess they cannot manage, at present.

Wandering off subject, for a moment that will seem silly, you have to realize that no Texan can cross between Texas and Tennessee without an Arkansas state trooper stopping them to search their vehicle for drugs. So, and here’s where it starts to make sense again, how do massive amounts of illegals get to places such as New York (running up health care cost there) after crossing into the United States via Texas? If the government were to consider a deportation program for illegals, millions of dollars in unpaid health cost would disappear. In the states of Texas, California, and New Mexico, the majority of health care for the uninsured goes to pay for medical treatment to those who are not citizens of the United States. The health emergency begins to look more like a Pelosi-backed program to make the United States, not only allow illegal immigration to continue, but to insure that said-immigrants would be guaranteed medical treatment.

Over-taxation of the American populace is not the answer to health care reform, the answer is in the fence that politicians, like Pelosi, don’t want the southern states to build or defend. The economy is sliding further down the slippery slope of destitution and the politicians are talking health care reform to insure that illegal aliens that take jobs and encompass a good deal of the welfare system will have more benefits…and they talk about Americans being callous, warring, and uncivilized dogs?

Read First: Think, and then write

The worst part of writing assignments is that you have to read the whole list of things that are required before you begin, or you end up writing things that just don’t fit anything in the assignment. It’s a problem that everyone who has ever attended school for more than 5 years is able to attest too.

Fifth Grade book report: The teacher said the assignment was over the book Mayhem in Alta Vega, but she wanted me to write a book on the plot, based loosely on the book Mayhem in My Bedroom. I read the book, front and back; it was the pages in between that I omitted.

Literacy should be defined: Attempting to educate a welder in order to produce an ambassador. However, it has become a trial and error procedure, which under the best circumstances produces a waitress who will be required to learn short hand for short order cooks. Those who are well versed in the requirements that allow them to decipher such writings as those of Nietzsche are not particularly inclined to write, while those who do not adequately possess the skills of understanding, want to be Nietzsche, and write protracted novels on the thoughts and most urgent feelings they as a human could insert into the public venue.

Writing assignment:

We need 10 thoughts, phrases, and collectively knowledgeable ideas for why the immediate need for nationalized health care is being over expressed. Please remit immediately within the AP style guidelines.
to amiflabbergasted@pegandietofsocialdisorder.com
1—All work must be original and never before published on any site, especially thebigotintime.com, wedontreallycare.com, or foreverintaxationdebt.com. If your work has appeared on these sites, please do not contact us.

2—We do accept new, or up and coming writers; first drafts only. We are not an EOE because we do not pay, and you cannot collect what is not promised.

When you’ve read through the assignment and have come to the end—the part where you won’t be paid—and still are in agreement to write the grand thesis that your college professor would have gone “ga-ga” over, then you realize that there must be something missing. Payment aside, you ask, “Why 10 thoughts, phrases, and collectively knowledgeable ideas for immediate need,” when the person with the assignment is obviously against everything that you might surmise and where on earth will you get knowledge on the Internet? Are relatives, in the medical profession, considered collectively knowledgeable…collectively knowledgeable? Are there any good reasons for nationalized health care, and is there any reason that you would want to do such an assignment for zero dollars and cents?

No, but this was not the assignment (though it makes as much sense, and does pay) that I did not read through before beginning. Yes, I screwed up…sue me; I’m not a welder or a waitress.

Note: To my knowledge, none of the web sites or email addresses exist. If they do, it's happenstance.

History Lesson 101: YouTube is not a teaching device

If what you learned on YouTube becomes your bat in the battle of politics, you’re in deep chit in the first place. The reason that books are written is to entertain, to illustrate, to educate, and hopefully to make wiser those among us who have no more to do than watch videos on YouTube. Unfortunately, there are the well-educated online whose parents paid for them to get a decent education while they squandered away their time in college watching YouTube, partying, and paying to have term papers written professionally for them. The fact that no professors have had a fit about such goings on is not remarkable, as the liberal minded among them are “in-tune” with the potheads of the 60s.

I find most astounding that people in my age range have chosen to stay in some doped up state of existence where keeping 20-somethings dumb-ed down is preferable to teaching them the skills that will elevate them to individual thought and prosperity. Honestly, the Viet Nam war was a travesty, especially for the brave men who thought they were fighting to make a difference and not to keep the screws of industry turning; however, the under education of American youth in order to form a subservient and organized work force is all the more a travesty. The only elevated signs of thought seem to be coming from a much younger generation of people; the 1 and 2-year-old children in the E*TRADE commercials.

Sadly, those parents that trustingly send their young adults off to college to further their education, get a return investment that slumps daily in front of a computer bemoaning their very existence and whining because they might have to take a job at Burger King. Just a thought; get off the computer chair, pick up a book and read a bit of what made this nation great, then go get that available job at Burger King, before some over-the-hill 40-50 something gets laid off and beats you to the punch. Or, sit there in front of the computer, get your history lesson from a 40-something who never worked a day in his life but has a cushy job in politics because somewhere, several decades back, had an uncle who was shot as his motorcade drove through Dallas, Texas.

Kool-Aid Drinkers: The lost generation

The Kool-Aid reference is due to the atrocities that Jim Jones caused in 1978 by convincing his followers to drink kool-aid and die. Fox News uses this expression to define those who blindly follow anyone. Most of us, that are not following the mass media into Obamamania, refer to those who “do” blindly follow the movement as kool-aid drinkers. Robert Gibbs is a massive kool-aid consumer with his nose poised blindly below the presidential seal, and every utterance from Obama becomes written in stone for the press secretary. Whether or not Gibbs would absolutely lie for his own benefit, remains to be seen; however, if Obama demands it, Gibbs will lie for the Obama administration.

It will not be those amongst us that the next, and even the next generation of Americans will blame when the stimulus package/taxation catches up to them, it will be the kool-aid drinkers who blindly followed Obama down the path of destruction. You will hear liberal democrats say, “Oh we don’t really want socialism, we just need a decent health care package for Americans that do not have medical insurance.”

It’s at this point, that we should offer these poor diluted individuals a cup of coffee and explain that the kool-aid has affected their minds. The nationalization of health care is redundant because no nation that has had government run health care (including our Medicaid and Medicare) has been able to take proper care of their citizens, but liberals are sure that Lord Obama will be able to come up with a great system. Well, Lord Obama cannot come up with a reasonable plan for shutting down Guantanamo Bay, he cannot create the jobs he promised, he has borrowed us into a debt that will strangle our children’s futures, and the economy—not to mention job loss—is still in a downward spiral. Lord Obama has effectively proven what others warned of before the election, that he has no experience in a job that requires a good deal of experience.

The “Love Affair” that MSNBC has with Obama will crumple if “cap and trade” does not go through and he knows it. We’re not all kool-aid drinkers, and he knows this too, and now…well, he’s beginning to munch on new ideas that will make his popularity start in an upward turn, but alas, “paygo” is coming a little too late for Lord Obama. Paygo, meaning that congress will have to pay as they spend is not even a possibility. We’re broke, dust in the closet, musty under the bed, pledge can empty-broke.

News: Economy down, Coors sales up

If you read nothing but news, you soon become depressed, so why don’t we ever read that psychiatric care is soaring? Well…it’s because Coors has had a great year, at least in Texas where rednecks buy a six-pack and call a friend—who is likely depressed—and watch a good movie or NASCAR, but we do not kill ourselves. We leave that for the vain and stupid, or those embroiled in some scandal of their own making.

My husband, god bless him, asked me last night why so many of the Hollywood elite were all for Obama. Here’s a little run down on that:

At the beginning of last century, the Hollywood elite were not acceptable in decent society. They were considered to be immoral people whose only wealthy associate was William Randolph Hearst of newspaper fame. Though the starlets were acceptable “closet playmates,” none of the very wealthy young men’s parents would have had them marry such a tarnished woman. Actors and actresses were considered to be third-class citizens that were only tolerated but never elevated.

Fast forward 30 years, and you have a gallant bunch of men willing to serve their country. These were men such as Clark Gable, Gary Cooper, Lee Marvin, and the like who felt a deep debt and great reverence for their country. Along comes the USO and Bob Hope with entertainment and women from films to boost the morale of soldiers in combat. These were the Hollywood elite that earned their wings and the confidence of a nation.

A few more years passed, as did most of these respected actors and actresses. The gallant men and women of Hollywood were replaced by spoiled, self-serving egotist like Marlon Brando, Barbara Streisand, Jane Fonda, and worse the producers and directors that hopped on the “too good to be touched by the law or man” train. So many have made a fortune off capitalism and spat in the faces of the public that support their way of life. Many of these have lost their fortunes due to excess and trivial pursuits in perversions, drugs, and even some have lost their lives. These, with the likes of Sean Penn, Alec Baldwin, and Ron Howard, have sold their souls to the dark side of the couch. They have, in essence, renewed the heyday of the untouchable and unsophisticated rabble that decent people sought to shun at the turn of the 19th century. They’re self-serving and self-possessed, with a belief that they hold the keys to the Universe. They live on Mount Olympus where man dare not go, and man only survives to feed their needs. That’s what happened in Hollywood.


Having told you how the Hollywood elite became so much better and much higher minded than those of us little-folk, tea partying-rednecks, it’s time that they remembered who pays for their way of life. They like congress have become so “anointed” in their own crap that they can no longer understand that we can change the lay of the land. We’ve boycotted salmon, tuna, and all other manner of things—to include Wal-Mart—how hard could it be to boycott those who would place themselves above the public good and traditional American values?

There have been some surprises, of late, with John Voight and a few others that are un-afraid to profess their love for freedom and Constitutional rights. To these men and women, we should express our gratitude. Now if just a few more will step forward, they will find that the film-makers may shun them, but the public will love them for coming down off their glorified thrown and acting like human beings again. There are no fans of elitism, nor are there any patrons for those who think themselves Gods. We have a God. We need entertainment…do what you know and stick to it. We redneck tea partiers will be waiting while you try to produce some decent entertainment.

Blogging to save our country

If you are fed up with this scapegoat administration, and want to see them concentrate on the problems instead of being the cause of more problems, read and comment. Let the president know that we are still free Americans, and we have a voice. The gyroscope goes round, and life is too precious to waste a minute under the rule of a dictator.
