Why I am not a Libertarian!

On Sunday, November 14, I posted a picture I named, "And Liberals think Red-Staters Are Ignorant?" One of the comments on the post was from someone that calls them self Libertarian4Truth. Here is what he wrote:

Well people should be able to express their opinions and how they feel. that is their constituional right. You showed a picture with a woman smoking a joint. BIG DEAL. let people do what the hell they want to do. We would waste taxpayers money by prosecuting and incarcerating that woman for smoking marijuana.


My response was as follows:

God forbid we spend a little money to teach our kids that drugs and being a whore is not an acceptable lifestyle. People can do whatever they want, and moral societies can lock them up and throw away the key to let everyone know that all choices are not correct choices.



Then I found this story from Newsday.com and it reminded me of why I am not a Libertarian, "Infant Dies During Parents' Crack Binge." Libertarians believe that it is none of our business if people want to do drugs. I say horseshit. Though I do believe that people can do whatever they want, if they are caught, doing something they should not be doing (drugs) lock them up and throw away the key. The parents in this story should get the death penalty. I am ok with people doing whatever they want, as long as they can handle the consequences. Drugs are not a victimless crime; drugs destroy families, destroy society, and often lead to innocent deaths.

Libertarian4Truth drugs are a BIG DEAL! What do you think?

New Blogroll Addition!

Joshua McPeak is quickly becoming one of my best blogger buddies! His blog Peakah's Provocations is new and getting better with every post. Peakah is a regular commenter here at Passionate America and a member of the Passionate Forums. I have decided to add Peakah's Provocations to my blogroll. Thanks Josh for all your support.


Mr. Mom Monday

Well I have officially adopted the title "stay-at-home Dad." I have shunned this title in the past because I assumed that I would once again be asked to assume the duties that I am best at, bringing home the bacon. My wife has other ideas. She believes that she needs to have a job and I need to have a job. I am ok with this idea when the kids are at school. Problem is we have a one year old and I WILL NOT PUT MY CHILDREN IN DAYCARE!

I tried to explain to my wife that I could make more money than she can. I am not making a sexist statement, it is the truth. I have more work place skills, I have better leadership skills, and I have always made more money than my wife has. It has nothing to do with her being a woman; it has everything to do with the fact that she does not really understand what work is.

I will try to explain my point in a different way. Let's say you own a football team. Who should play the quarterback position? The quarterback or the head cheerleader? Right now, our family team is being lead by the head cheerleader while the star quarterback is leading the cheerleading squad. We have been losing games since my god given talents have been mitigated to cleaning house, doing laundry, taking care of the kids, and cooking the meals. Now it is a fact that I am better at cooking, laundry, and cleaning, but I am significantly better at making money.

My day goes like this: I wake up take a bath while listening to the radio, reading a book, and planning my days cleaning and cooking activities. After my relaxing bath my wife leaves to goto work (usually 1 hour and a half early) while I do the laundry, clean the house, cook the meals, take care of my one year old son, and work on my websites. Sometime around 4 or 6 pm, my best friend Lummpy shows up to hangout with me until he goes to work at 10:30pm. We watch Fox News most of the night, find a movie to watch, and I start dinner around 10pm. My wife arrives home from work at 11:30pm and we eat dinner, sit on the couch, watch TV or a movie, and goto bed sometime around 1:30am.

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy taking care of my son and keeping the house clean, I just do not believe that I am being used to the best of my abilities. I do not believe the family duties and responsibilities are distributed correctly. When I bring up this subject with my wife, she says to me, "If you don't like it you can get a job or you can leave." I could get a job, but like I said before, "I WILL NOT PUT MY KIDS IN DAYCARE!" And I could leave, but I love my wife, I love my sons, I want to keep the family together. What to do, what to do? I guess its Mr. Mom for now.

Get ready for the come back!

The house is clean, the laundry is done, the budget has been addressed, and the passionate wife and I have declared an end to hostile operations. With the vacation came many rewards. However, a preventable problem helped teach the wife a valuable lesson about working together, instead of widening our divide.

Wednesday the entire family, Robert (1 year old), Brandon (oldest son), Risa (wife), and I, Wild Bill headed to the super Wal-Mart for some last minute Thanksgiving preparations. We were about half way there, in the middle of nowhere, when the flap flap flap sound of an impending car problem brought our family field trip to a halt. We had a flat tire, no jack, and no spare. To make matters worse with our financial problems, my cell phone bill had not been paid and we did not have a phone to call for help. We were at least a mile and a half from the nearest pay phone. Someone had to walk to the pay phone and someone had to stay with our youngest son Robert at the car. Brandon and I obviously had a mile an a half hike ahead of us.

Brandon and I walked along the side of the road through mud, tall grass, and 34-degree weather. We talked about how cold we were, Brandon asked the inevitable question, "Are we almost there?", as cars whizzed by at 55mph. We topped the final hill; luckily, it was a downhill walk from there. I called my parents, gave them directions, and we walked inside the convenience store for some peppered beef jerky and to get in out of the cold. After we finished off the bag of jerky, we headed back to the parking lot to keep a look out for my parents. Brandon kicked almost every rock in the parking lot and finally our saviors arrived. Brandon and I pilled into the cab of my father's truck and headed back to the scene of my wounded car.

We pulled up and Risa smiled, one of the few smiles I have seen from her in the last few years. She was more than happy to see we had survived our long cold walk and that we had returned with reinforcements. I removed the shredded tire and gave it a spiteful tossed into the bed of my father's truck. My mother wanted to spend time with her grandsons, so I unbuckled Robert and buckled him into my father's truck next to my mother. Brandon jumped into the truck and they left to get new rubber for the rim. This left Risa and I manning the fort protecting the car from god knows what.

Risa and I talked about what lessons she had just learned. She realized we needed to budget better to guarantee that bills were paid on time (cell phone bill.) She agreed with me that if we had an emergency fund and would have prepared for this emergency by having a spare tire that I could have changed the tire in about ten minutes instead of the three hours that it had taken to walk to the phone, call for help, and the wait for the new tire to return. It had taken a major problem to teach her the value in working together as partners instead of against each other as enemies. We kissed each other and vowed to work together from now on. As we laughed and joked over the next hour, I felt closer to my wife than I had in a long time.

My best friend Lummpy pulled up after hearing through the grape vine that we were stranded somewhere in Oklahoma City. It had only taken Lummpy one hour to track us down, but by the time he got there, all that was left was the wait for the new tire. Lummpy climbed into the back seat and we all talked for the next thirty minutes. The sun had set when my parents arrived with the tire. It took about five minutes to put the tire back onto the car. I thanked my Dad for his help and he told me "Merry Christmas," has he drove away.

I had many things to be thankful for; the flat tire had brought our family closer together, my friends cared about me, and my wife seemed finally ready to let her guard down and trust that I wanted to help her instead of control her. We finished our last minute shopping, prepared a great Thanksgiving feast, and snuggled up on the couch for some adult time. Risa and I have started to pick up the pieces of our fractured marriage and the pieces are fitting together nicely (if you know what I mean.)

Now it is time for the comeback. I have had my little vacation, now it is time to bring the Passion back to the website. I want to personally thank Josh McPeak, The Smoke Eater, Poor-Statue, EdWonk, Deb, Marc, Jim Pfaff, Skerdog, Meg, ~Jen~, ALa71, and My Brother Mike for their kind words and support. While I was gone, Passionate America reached 50,000 visitors. Let's make the next 50,000 better than ever. I will see everyone Monday morning. I am back!!!

Small problems, short vacation

When it rains it pours, or so they say, but who are THEY? How the hell do I know? What I do know is that life has thrown many curve balls my way lately.

I was laid off from a high paying job two years ago. I dropped out of college because I could not afford it. I cannot pay my bills. The unpassionate wife and I are in the middle of a five year marital war (I would tell you more, but I am not allowed to post about our personal life, shhhhh it is a secret.) We have to find a new place to live, but we cannot afford to move (the unpassionate wife will not take any advice from me on financial matters therefore we exist in a perpetual state of poverty that ensures we live one paycheck away from homelessness at all times.) Our oldest child Brandon has to live with my brother because the unpassionate wife refuses to find a better job so that we can get a bigger place. My transmission is about to go out and I cannot afford to have it fixed, (also a result of our financial state.) My grandfather died.

Enough of the negative let us look at the positive. I am taking a few days off from the website to get my life back on track. I am alive. America is the greatest nation on earth. I love my wife, even though she does not love me, (how do I know, because she reminds me constantly.) I will find a good job. I will repair my financial situation. Life goes on and better days are ahead of me.

I will be back to passionate blogging shortly. I felt that the problems I have been having lately were affecting the posting on this website. I will clear my head, find solutions for my problems, and be back to my normal passionate humorous self in no time. While I am gone, check out the Passionate America Forums and keep the passion alive.

Sincerely,
Wild Bill

Patrick Stewart, you go boy!



Is the Captain, "Engaged?"

Patrick Stewart has finally been photographed with his 25-year-old girlfriend actress Lisa Dillon. The happy couple had, "previously kept their relationship a secret, due to concerns over people's attitudes to their age gap." I'm not worried about the age gap, hell I'm envious.

Why am I so interested in the story? Because, I am Jean-Luc Picard! Ok, I'm not really Jean-Luc Picard, but If I find myself single when I am 69-years-old, I hope I can be as lucky-in-love as my favorite starship captain. Patrick Stewart, you go boy!


Drones of DOOM, nothing to worry about?

A new Time magazine article warns Americans about the possibility of al-Qaeda attack on the US with weapons of mass destruction.

This is not new information for those of us that have been following al-Qaeda threats during the last four years. The more interesting part (for me) came at the end of the article.

...another episode has some senior U.S. officials worried: the theft of a crop-duster aircraft south of San Diego, apparently by three men from southern Mexico who ssaulted a watchman and then flew off in a southerly direction. Though the theft's connection to terrorism remains unclear, a senior U.S. law enforcement official notes that crop dusters can be used to disperse toxic substances. The plane, stolen at night two weeks ago, has not been recovered.


Now this is news to me. I was aware that al-Qaeda had been trying to procure an aircraft that could be used to attack the US with chemical and biological weapons. Now it might be possible that al-Qaeda has the plane that they were trying to obtain. This had me somewhat worried until a so-called expert on Fox News calmed my building hysteria. The self-proclaimed expert (sorry, I did not catch his name) said, "We shouldn't be staying up at night worrying about drones of doom sprinkling germs on us!"

Well, that is good enough for me! Move along people nothing to see here!

Michelle Malkin has more information on the missing crop duster if you are still concerned.

The Jawa Report has a suspect in mind for the possible stolen propane tanks connection to this story. Dr. Rusty Shackleford says, "My money is on this man."



Update (2:16pm): The Jawa Report has more about the Time Magazine article, "Al Qaeda Bringing Nukes Over Mexican Border?"

And Liberals think Red-Staters Are Ignorant?

Pot Smoking Idiots


Let's stop the Second Civil War before it begins!

Second Civil War

I have received a lot of comments and emails that think I should stopping talking about the possibility of a Second Civil War. The comments range from, "that's just silly!" to "Liberals are not violent people; the idea that they would start a Second Civil War is ridiculous!"

I decided to give the Second Civil War theories a rest, until I read this post. I could not believe what I was reading. Excerpt from a thread Bill Maher's website:

Shooting Republicans, ethical? Discuss

At this point in time, would it be morally defensible to apply a "final solution" to republicans?

Let's face it, when Grover Norquist is doing the media rounds...when his agenda of eliminating all taxes on billionaires and letting the poor pay all taxes and carry the debt burdon, and let them scounge around in the garbage for food...builds character.....when THIS type of criminal extreme right wing "thought" is entering the mainstream...it's time for extreme action.

GW Bush and the American right wing Taliban are endangering the entire planet. If the rest of the world had a say, Bush and Cheney would be in jail.

Is it now morally excusable to organize midnight raids on republican groups in the red states and "terminate" them with extreme prejudice? Watching Bush's acceptance speech on wednesday, with the Cheney's on stage as well....who would not have liked to see a bomb go off under the stage and wipe out the whole despicable slimy lot of them? And hopefully the shrapnel would have gone to the second deck and blown Mary Matalin's head off as well.

Be honest. Who would not like to see Karen Hughes run over by an 18 wheel truck? Who wouldn't like to see her carcass scattered all over highway 99?

Discuss
(read the rest of the treats here)
Does this just sound like harmless talk to you, or should we prepare for real possibility of a Second Civil War? How can we stop the Second Civil War before it begins?

Parents, let the revolution begin

After a short blogging break, my brother Mike has posted some new stuff at Personal Rantings Of A Jackass. Here is a little taste:

Parents, let the revolution begin

I just read an article in Newsweek about how to say ‘No’ to your kids and not feel guilty. You people need to put down the crack pipe and check in to rehab. How the hell do you feel guilty for telling your child ‘no’? The author of the piece said that she didn’t want to give in and buy her 9 year-old a $300 iPod, and then in the next paragraph she did just that, she caved and bought it. I just don’t...

Thanks Mike it is about time someone reminded parents that they are in charge, not their children.

Bush Sends His BEST WISHES to Spain's Prime Minister

Bush's Best Wishes to Spain's Prime Minister
click picture to enlarge


Spanish Socialist Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero cannot seem to get President George Bush to return his calls. I wonder why? It seems Bush is just too busy fighting TERRORISM to take calls from a TERRORIST appeaser.

Bush did find time Tuesday to meet with Spain's former Prime Minister, Jose Maria Aznar, who was a major Bush ally in the War on TERROR. Hmmmm, how does the former prime minister get an invite to the White House while the current prime minister cannot even get a call put through? It is a little thing us ignorant folk in the red states like to call loyalty.

The President's 2004 Veterans Day Proclamation

Veterans Day, 2004

By the President of the United States of America
A Proclamation


Americans live in freedom because of our veterans' courage, dedication to duty, and love of country. On Veterans Day, we honor these brave men and women who have served in our Armed Forces and defended our Nation.

Across America, there are more than 25 million veterans. Their ranks include generations of citizens who have risked their lives while serving in military conflicts, including World War II, Korea, Vietnam, the ersian Gulf, and the war on terror. They have fought for the security of our country and the peace of the world. They have defended our founding ideals, protected the innocent, and liberated the oppressed from tyranny and terror. They have known the hardships and the fears and the tragic losses of war. Our veterans know that in the harshest hours of conflict they serve just and honorable purposes.

Through the years, our veterans have returned home from their duties to become active and responsible citizens in their communities, further contributing to the growth and development of our Nation. Their ommitment to service inspires all Americans.

With respect for and in recognition of the contributions our service men and women have made to the cause of peace and freedom around the world, the Congress has provided (5 U.S.C. 6103(a)) that November 11 of each year shall be set aside as a legal public holiday to honor veterans.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim November 11, 2004, as Veterans Day and urge all Americans to observe November 7 through November 13, 2004, as National Veterans Awareness Week. I urge all Americans to recognize the valor and sacrifice of our veterans through ceremonies and prayers. I call upon Federal, State, and local officials to display the flag of the United States and to encourage and participate in patriotic activities in their communities. I invite civic and fraternal organizations, places of worship, schools, businesses, unions, and the media to support this national observance with commemorative expressions and programs.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this ninth day of November, in the year of our Lord two thousand four, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and twenty-ninth.

GEORGE W. BUSH

Milliatry crashes anti-war party in LA

Via Boing Boing and Politics in the Zeros

A group, I am calling F.A.R.T. (Fallujah Aint Related to Terrorism) decided to have an anti-war party in the streets in front of the Westwood Federal Building in Los Angeles, on Tuesday night. The F.A.R.T. party was progressing nicely until the military crashed the party. (Click here to see the video) Checkout the party pics below.

APC's at LA anti-war protest

Looks like the F.A.R.T. people did not want to share the beer with the evil warmongers!

Who Would Jesus Torture?
This person is playing a favorite anti-war party game called F.A.R.T. on the box.

I hope the partying protesters learned a lesson, "A F.A.R.T. can't stop the US military!"

10 things I tolerate 10 things I do not have to accept!

Many Democrats are suffering from "Post-Election Depression", others seem to want to start a war, but one thing remains true, the Democrats have never been the party of tolerance. Most Liberals still do not understand the difference between tolerance and acceptance. My friend The Smoke Eater understands the difference.

Here is a list of ten things I tolerate:
  1. Michael Moore
  2. airport security
  3. credit cards
  4. gambling
  5. porn
  6. Homosexuality as a lifestyle choice
  7. Liberal ideology
  8. Cry baby losers that want to leave America
  9. differing opinions and comments on this website
  10. The right for people to write stupid shit like fuckthesouth.com

Things I do not have too accept:

  1. Michael Moore's belief that America sucks
  2. That profiling would not improve airport security
  3. My wife saying, "I will only use this credit card in an emergency!"
  4. Porn is good for America
  5. Homosexuality is not a choice
  6. Liberal ideology
  7. Bush voters are ignorant
  8. people who write stupid shit like fuckthesouth.com

What are some of the thing you tolerate, but do not accept?

Liberals: The (Insert Your Own) Reality-Based Community

Hey Lunatic Liberal Bloggers, if you believe the 2004 presidential election is 'More Depressing' Than 9/11, then you had better start calling yourselves The (Insert Your Own) Reality-Based Community!

Here is a link to the Democratic Underground Forums What is more depressing...9/11/01 or 11/3/04? These assbrains have lost their one finger grip on reality.

Once again, is their any question left as to why the Dems lost the election?

God Help Michael Moore

A commentor on my website tried to tell me that the picture on this post was a joke. Well I didn't think it was a joke and Michael Moore thinks it is a good idea. He posted the same picture on his website (picture below) and followed it up with another one of his insane assrants!


Will Michael Moore please move his American hating ass to Canada and spare us his bullshit.


Blogger Bias: Big Media's New Target!

It seems Blogger's are in the big media's sights now. Here is another example of their utter contempt for blogs.
Via InstaPundit

Allen Wastler the Managing Editor of CNN/Money must have hired exit pollers to get the information on blog traffic he uses to back up his incorrect article. Below is a picture he posted on CNN/Money.

I guess Allen Wastler still does not understand the power of the blog. It is obvious from his post that he has a problem with bloggers. I hope he realizes that his post is going to spread like wildfire throughout the internet and bloggers are going to tear it apart and expose his false blog traffic numbers. In fact InstaPundit, Poli Blog, The Truth Laid Bear, ProfessorBainbridge.com, and Arguing With Signposts already have.

It seems the big media is a little pissed at blogs for fact checking their asses. Do they think that if they write a negative article about bloggers we are not going to check the article's facts? Nice try Mr. Wastler, but the Blogsphere is about to have a field day with you.

Yet another Liberal that does not understand why they lost the election.

A large majority of the self proclaimed open-minded, nuanced elite still have no idea why they were presented a political pinkslip on November 2. The red states are not filled with homophobic, white supremacist, racist, Jesus freaks; we are Americans that have a different point-of-view. We will not placate our beliefs, our point-of-view is valid, and as long as liberals use shrill incendiary rhetoric and continuously discount conservatives as evil warmongering backwoods hicks, the left will keep racking up points in the loss category.

Americans in the red areas are the backbone of the United States. General George Patton once said, "Give [me] an army of West Point grads and I win a battle, give me a handful of Texas Aggies and I'll win a war." General Patton understood what the so-called liberal intelligentsia still does not; Americans in the red areas are a resourceful, passionate, and patriotic lot. We fight for freedom with a fire in our bellies and love and faith in our hearts. We are not a majority of religious fanatics; we understand that faith builds a better America. Faith is more than a religious ideal; it encompasses our ideology, our being. We have faith in our fellow citizens, faith in the motivations of our President, faith that America is on the right track, faith that Iraq is better off and will be better off when the Iraqi people enjoy the freedom that Americans and our Allies fought to protect.

It has been suggested that America should divide itself into two nations by many of the faithless extreme left. These same liberals claim they have a monopoly on tolerance. Seceding because you have no faith in your red state compatriots is not tolerance. If the left believes that dividing our nation is an example of their understanding of tolerance, then (to use a red state euphemism) they are "up a creek without a paddle."

Liberals like to use cute absolutisms when expressing what they believe everyone knows or should know. Liberals like to qualify their statements with rhetorical modifiers such as; studies show, the conventional wisdom tells us, as you know, and everyone knows. The reason why Democrats did not win the election is that they expect everyone to accept that their logic is the way things are done. Is it obvious to liberals now that not everyone knows what logic the left uses to back up their unconventional wisdom? Democrats would do well to consider the point-of-view of this intelligent Democrat.

Democrats, your problems will not be solved by giving up on America; they will be solved through deep self-reflection, honesty with yourselves about what mistakes your party has made, and by actually listening with respect and tolerance to other points of view. You don't have to agree with these points of view, but open your eyes and ears, you might find out Americans are not all that different, and you just might gain a better understanding and a renewed faith in your fellow Americans

I would vote for a Democrat that talks like this

Via Instapundit

This has to be one of the most intelligent and interesting analysis by a Democrat on what is wrong with the Democratic Party. If Democrats had followed Andrew's vision, they would have won the election. From The Backseat Philosopher I present to you Andrew, the man that has the ideas to fix the Democratic Party:

Our error is that we Democrats are far less understanding than we think we are. Our version of understanding the other side is to look at them from a psychological point of view while being completely unwilling to take their arguments seriously. "Well, he can't help himself, he's a right-wing religious zealot, so of course he's going to think like that." "Republicans who never served in war are hypocrites to send young men to die.” "Republicans are homophobes, probably because they can't deal with their secret desires." Anything but actually listening and responding to the arguments being made.

And when I say 'responding,' I don't just mean 'coming up with the best counterargument and pushing it.' Sometimes responding to an argument means finding the merit in it and possibly changing one's position. That is part of growth, right?

Here are some arguments that are being made that the Democratic party has simply not responded to, in the larger sense of the word "response"
(Read the rest here)


I applaud you Andrew. I have added The Backseat Philosopher to my blogroll. I will be checking your site daily as it is the only rational Democratic site I have found. I would enjoy speaking to Andrew for hours on end. You have succeeded Andrew; Today I learned an important lesson from a Democrat and for that, I am a better person.


The Left Wants A War!



Does this mean the left wants to invade Canada?

I've told you many times about how insane the left is. Now it looks like Ken Layne wants the left to invade Canada, and then attack Jesusland (formerly known as America.)
From Ken Layne's blog:
I intend to make this worldly life a living hell for[America] over the next couple of years...regular Christians must go to war with [America], too...Or, better yet, why not join the war against [America] today?...I've got a big problem with [America]...Anytime a do-gooder liberal tries to tell me not to smoke, or not to have guns, or not to lauh at people, I will respond with the well known put-down, "Go back to [America]."
Will you lefties calm down before you go to far?

The left cannot fight a prolonged war, they will have no children to carry on the fight. The left will suck their next generation of fighters into a sink.


I keep reading comments and posts by Liberal Losers that promise Something's Coming, like this, this, this, this, and this,(read the last 2 paragraphs).

Sounds like the Liberal Sore Losers want there own country. They already have one, it's called France.

CNN saves Bush pictures as Asshole.jpg and Moron.jpg

CNN (Communist News Network) placed images of President Bush and Laura Bush on their homepage with the file name 'asshole.jpg' Check out the proof. Wizbang broke this story first. Michelle Malkin found another picture on the CNN website called 'moron.jpg'.

CNN looks like the assholes now!


I Would Call This A Mandate!


Right On Red


If the Dems keep trying to pick a fight, I'm preaty sure the red parts of America will win again. Can't we all just get along? Only if the Dems want to get along.


Is Yasser Arafat Dead?



The Israelis say he is dead. The Palestinians say he is not dead. A reporter at President Bush’s press conference said he is dead. The French say he is in a coma. This is London says he is brain dead. I think he has been brain dead for at least 20 years. The stock market gains on Yassar's reported death. Is Yasser Arafat Dead?. Bush said, 'God Bless his soul' (doesn't Bush mean, Allah Bless his soul?)

I am going out on a limb here, but I will officially declare, "Yasser Arafat is dead! The TERRORIST is dead! Stick a fork in him Allah, Yasser Arafat is DEAD!"


Update 1: If you were a virgin, how disappointed would you be to find out that Yasser Arafat would be the one to de-flower you?

72 virgins cry tonight.

Sore Loser Al Franken Wants to Fight



Thems fighting words Al

From The O' Franken Factor Blog:

And we've created a movement to take this country back. Even though we didn't do it this time, I believe that we will still do it.

The other side [Bush] wants us to get demoralized, but we are going to fight. We are going to fight every step of the way.

Round two starts now

Al Franken ( read the rest of this liberal bullshit )



What a sore LOSER!!! HAHAHAHA!!! Can't we play nice like John Kerry said in his concession speech today?

What a joke, the Left has no intentions to work together; they are too filled with hate to think rationally.


John Fn Kerry Leaps Away Like Liberal Loser!



See Yah! Wouldn't Want To Be Yah!



Conservatives, STOP THE CAN WE ALL JUST GET ALONG CRAP!

I have been surfing conservative blogs reading what they had to say about this great day. Some of my conservative blogger friends are suggesting that we should not gloat! HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN?

Liberal wackos hate us, they only want us to be nice so they can attack when our guard is down. When is Michael Moore going to be nice? They think Bush is Hitler. They screamed the WAR WAS FOR OIL! They are already saying the election was stolen. These people are not our friends. I would love us all to get along, but they think we are evil, war mongering, Nazis. When Liberals start saying good things about us then we can talk about healing the dividing wound that Liberalism has caused in this country.

Today is a day to gloat! Be happy; laugh your ass of at Liberal stupidity. Tomorrow we can make up.
Update (11/04 10:56 pm): The Leather Penguin has had Enought of the "Heal the Wounds" Crap.


Gloat Fest!!!!!!!!!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE! LOSERS! LOSERS! LOSERS!

Glenn Beck is hosting GLOAT FEST on his mourning talk show today. It is a day to celebrate Democracy, a day to celebrate America, and a day to rub it in the Dems faces! Go ahead, you earned it! Tell everyone you meet that you picked a winner. Yell at the top of your lungs ELECTED NOT SELECTED, FOUR MORE YEARS, 286...286...286, and KERRY IS A LLLOOOSSSEEERRR!!!!! Remind every Kerry supporting loser that you meet that Bush sat in the classroom reading my pet goat for 7 minutes, but Kerry has spent 14 hours huddled up in the fetal position crying like a little baby in his house today and he can't decide whether he is going to be a man or stomp around throwing a fit screaming MINE MINE MINE!

The word for the day is LOSER!

Remember all the times that the Dems have said Republicans are stupid? Now who's STUPID? BARK BARK!!!!!! John Frankenstein Face Kerry is going back to Massachusetts with his long chin buried against his chest singing "I'm a LOSER baby, so why don't you kill me?" Today when you see a Kerry/Edwards sign in someone's yard feel free to point and laugh. Think of all the Dems in the world that slapped a Kerry/Edwards sticker on the bumper of their car AND NOW THEY HAVE TO LOOK AT IT EVERYTIME THEY WALK AROUND THEIR CAR. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! LOSERS!

Whenever you see a whinny ass Liberal LOSER today, ask them why they look upset. When they say, because Kerry lost, tell them you are sorry and then call them a LOSER!!! Go ahead and Gloat my conservative friends. Kerry is about to give his LOSER speech. We should record it and play it every time a Liberal starts spouting bullshit.

Write Michael Moore an email and let him know what a fat, lying, LOSER he is.

Look on the bright side my Liberal Enemies, Kerry will probably get another medal that he can pin to his chest. Start growing your Al Gore beard now Mr. Kerry, LOSER!

This is our day! Don't let LOSERS get you down. Oh and one more thing, Tom Daschle LOSER!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!


New Mexico stopped counting but kept voting.

Did New Mexico stop counting votes for the night so they can fill out some new ballots? They know Bush won New Mexico. They must be combing through graveyards looking for more Kerry voters in New Mexico or maybe they are flying in some new Kerry voters from another state. Spoons says New Mexico has counted 103% of the votes.


Bush's Chief-Of-Staff read my website.

It is 4:40 am Nov. 3 and Bush's chief-of-staff is speaking on Fox News. He said that they believe Bush has 286 electoral votes and has won the election. He must have got that from Passionate America, because the pussy ass news media will not call the election.


Bush Wins!

Bush Wins!



This will go down in history as one of the greatest moments in American history.

What do you think the final Electoral Vote count will be?

2004 Election Crimes, Shenanigans, and Fraud Roundup

With passions on high, the fate of America hangs in the balance. Will the Left do anything to win the election? Yep! Can the left make it through today without breaking any laws? Nope! Is the election going to turn violent? Maybe! Is this Election Hell? Below is a list of lefties that will do anything to win.

Keep checking this post throughout the day for updates!



Passionate Election Night Party Guide!

Well it is election night! Buckle your seat belt, turn on your favorite talk radio station or Fox News, and prepare for the election ride of your life. It's time to party political style.

What you will need to complete your election night extravaganza!
  1. Vote! Do not sit on the fence; it might poke you in the butt. Pick a candidate and vote!
  2. Get informed! Edison Media Research gives instructions on What to Watch for on Election Night
  3. Come as your favorite candidate! Via The Command Post. Put on your favorite candidate mask! Printable George W. Bush mask (optional hat). Printable John Kerry mask (optional hat). (Masks courtesty of Forbes.com).
  4. Enjoy some FUNNY political humor! Go to JibJab.com and click on Good To Be In DC and This Land. Play the Kerry Flip Flop Olympics. Watch the al-Qaeda Recruiting Video. Check out the Super Chicken. Play The Political Circus.
  5. Mix up some drinks! For Republicans, why not try a Hot Creamy Bush, Pink Elephants On Parade, or Texas Cool-Aid. For Democrats, try a Liberal Daiquiri, Pinko, Ass, Donkey Punch, or a Kerry Cappuccino.
  6. Play a drinking game, must be 21! From To Be Determined, Get Out The Vote, then Get Your Ass Drunk (he is a liberal, but what the hell sounds like a fun drinking game.)
  7. Get it on! If you are a Republican, take your (husband or wife) into the bedroom and work on bringing another Republican voter into the world. If you are a Democrat, have sex with anyone you want and if they get pregnant, you can always have it sucked into a sink.

Other bloggers with party plans: LLama Butchers,

Got an idea or a suggestion that would make your election night party even better? Let me know!



Still Undecided Vote for Nerf!

If you still have not made up your mind on who you are going to vote for, maybe you should vote for this guy?

Check out these campaign ads.


What are you going to do if your candidate does not win?

Some idiots have already planned to protest and the election is not even over yet.

A Small Victory says, "I will run naked through the streets, smeared with war paint, stinking of Jack Daniels and screaming obscenities at my neighbors."

Boyd at Texas Native is interested in what you will do Wednesday.

Bozzy at Bozzy's World says, you can bitch all you want if your candidate loses, but go vote.

Paul at Wizbang has some Election Day goodies like the coolest link in the Blogsphere on Election Day.

Pierre Legrand over at The Pink Flamingo Bar Grill promises if Kerry wins...then [I] devote my entire being to having him thrown out of office.

Me I am going to shave my beard that I vowed not to shave until after the election. Get a high paying job so I can save a lot of money. Purchase all the guns I can before Kerry outlaws them and prepare for TERRORIST attacks!
Update I (11/02 6:01 pm): The Spoons Experience says, I Pledge To Bitch About Whomever Is Elected President.


Passionate Election Predictions

Regular readers of this blog know that I'm betting on Bush. Who do you think will win (Bush, Kerry, or haha a third party candidate) and why?

Blogger Predictions: Blogs For Bush, Dustbury, The Spoons Experience, Blogs of War, Ramblings' Journal, The Horserace Blog, Kerry Haters, Convince Me, Atrios, TalkLeft, Drumwaster's Rants, Cam Edwards, Byrd Droppings, The Jawa Report, Six Meat Buffet, Right On Red, can't make up your mind don't vote Vodkapundit


NYTimes gives credit where credit is due.

The New York Times Opinion page gives credit to the Web log or blog for transforming politics this election.

Every four years, by journalistic if not political tradition, the presidential election must be accompanied by a "revolution." So what transformed politics this time around? The rise of the Web log, or blog. The commentary of bloggers - individuals or groups posting daily, hourly or second-by-second observations of and opinions on the campaign on their own Web sites - helped shape the 2004 race. The Op-Ed page asked bloggers from all points on the political spectrum to say what they thought was the most important event or moment of the campaign that, we hope, comes to an end today.

And which bloggers get to voice their opinions on the pages of The New York Times?

Family Crisis

My Grandfather is in intensive care after having a major stroke yesterday. I got to see the CAT scan this mourning and it does not look good. I am waiting by the phone for any news. At least I got to tell him I loved him on Halloween. Even if he does recover, the damage done to his brain will be extensive. I want to thank each of my close friends for their kind words and want all to know I will be back to blogging soon. I need a short break to wipe the tears from my eyes.
