Put that in your SUV

I don't understand why people think that just because they were born in America that they are somehow entitled to things. American Entitlement Syndrome (I just coined that) is a major contributing factor to why Americans are not liked outside the U.S.

There are three things the preamble to the Constitution entitles us. Life. Liberty. The pursuit of happiness. Just the pursuit. There is no guarantee that you will be happy, but you can pursue it.

So I'm just going to be blunt. Stop acting like assholes!

1. You are not the center of the universe.
2. You are not better than those around you.
3. You aren't always right.

And, yes. I am talking about George W. and his administration.

Who is John Galt?

The time has come for the people to rise against the dirty corporate machine that seeks to destroy the middle class and add to its own coffers. If something is good for a corporation, it is bad for the people.

EX: The federal government bailed out the airlines using taxpayer money. The people can barely afford to go across town, but the airlines made crazy profit.

EX: American companies go overseas for cheap land and labor. They are even given tax breaks for doing so. As a result, Americans lose jobs, their homes, families are torn apart---basically we're f***ed.

EX: Oil companies...okay. I can't even think about it without wanting to snap a neck.

GOOD FOR A CORPORATION=BAD FOR AMERICANS

WE DON'T NEED TO PUT UP WITH ANY OF IT! There are more of us than there are of them. What do you think would happen if the movers and the shakers of the world, the people who really make things happen, were to strike against those who merely profit from the hard work of others.

I am amassing an army.

I've been really concerned that, with all the problems of the world, with all the lies our government has handed us and with all the rights they have sought to take from us, still no one is protesting. No one is doing anything. Some may grumble, but that's all. And I am one person. Can you imagine what would happen to one person trying to have a sit-in at the White House? Nope. No one seems to care. Or maybe they are too lazy. We are Generation X, after all.

So I am amassing an army of 18 year olds. You see, last night one of our 18 year old friends came over and was talking about voting in his first election. Unfortunately, he doesn't know much about politics, the issues, the candidates, etc. He had a lot of questions and I had answers. The more I told him about our insidious current government, the angrier he became. He couldn't believe no one was doing anything. (We also discussed Vietnam and the activism of that time.)

That's when I realized I needed an army of 18 year olds. Anytime I talk to kids from 18 to 20, they want to do something, but they don't know how to go about it. They need someone older to lead the way.

So I am amassing an army of 18 year olds.

Apply within.

Where to buy your gas

Last Thursday I filled up at 325.9, that day the barrel of oil went to over 100 and the next morning the same gas was 329.9, interesting how that works.

PLEASE DON'T SUPPORT OUR ENEMIES WHERE TO BUY YOUR USA ~ GAS THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT TO KNOW. READ ON--

Gas rationing in the 80's worked even though we grumbled about it. It might even be good for us! The Saudis are boycotting American goods. We should return the favor. An interesting thought is to boycott their GAS. Every time you fill up the car, you can avoid putting more money into the coffers of Saudi Arabia Just buy from gas companies that don't import their oil from the Saudis. I thought it might be interesting for you to know which oil companies are the best to buy gas from and which major companies import Middle Eastern oil. These companies import Middle Eastern oil: Shell.......................... 205,742,000 barrels Chevron/Texaco..........144,332,000 barrels
Exxon /Mobil...............130,082,000 barrels
Marathon/Speedway...117,740,000 barrels
Amoco.........................62,231,000 barrels
Citgo Gas comes from South America, from a Dictator who hates Americans. Do the math at $30/barrel, these imports amount to over $18 BILLION! (Oil is now $90-$95 a barrel)

Here are some large companies that DO NOT import Middle Eastern oil:
Sunoco.................. 0 barrels
Conoco................ 0 barrels
Sinclair................ 0 barrels
BP/Phillips........... 0 barrels
Hess................... 0 barrels
ARC0. ............... 0 barrels
Also: Pilot, Flying J, Love's, RaceTrac, Valero

All of this information is available from the Department of Energy and each is required to state where they get their oil and how much they are importing.


I took this mostly from an e-mail my best friend sent me (taking out the chain letter parts). Now you have the information. Send it along.

WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

My mind's made up

The Clinton's have put me off. It's politics as usual. And sometimes Hillary scares me. I think she's a great woman---strong, intelligent, a real model for a generation of girl's who have only had Paris Hilton to emmulate. But even though she wants to do things for good, she will need to take away (and is willing to take away) our Constitutional rights to carry out her plans. Facsism is facsism no matter what.

I'm hoping for a McCain/Obama matchup. It would be exciting. Yet with Romney out of the picture, I think most of his votes will go to Huckabee. Then the GOP will have no chance and thank the gods for that one!

Once you get passed all the lies on the internet about Obama, you should be able to see why so many are comparing him to JFK. He is really the only candidate that might possibly be able to bring about this change stuff we've been hearing so much about. He stands by his convictions. He was one of the few senators who voted against the Iraq war, and that took courage.

My indecision over the Democratic contender and McCain (the one Republican I thought may be worthy) finally ended. McCain wants more war. I can't understand how someone who spent 6 years as a POW in one bullshit war would want to not only continue a second bullshit war, but also wants more bullshit wars.

BULLSHIT!!!!!

And McCain doesn't lift the spirits, either. He tells states like Michegan and Ohio that the jobs are gone and they aren't coming back. Why not just tell them to roll over and die? I don't see any reason why jobs can't come back to the American people. If McCain can, well, I guess he doesn't see the American people. http://lessjobsmorewars.com/?utm_source=rgemail

So, I've decided. Obama is the man.

The exception to the rule

I'm all about buying American, buying locally, keeping jobs in America.

Except...

DON'T BUY AMERICAN CARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

American car makers can't even sell their cars in other countries because the emission standards in other countries are too high. Cars from other countries are more fuel efficient and better for the enviroment. Thusly, they are better for everyone.

If we tell American car makers we aren't going to buy their product unless they get with the program, they will get with the program. Toyota and Honda lead in car sales. If they continue to take away business, the American car companies will have no choice.

Did you know that by 2009 your tv will be obsolete unless it is HD? The television companies will make a fortune. So why can't the car companies see that if everyone's car is outdated that they will reap the benefits? And why don't they realize all the jobs they could provide by improving car standards? Old cars will need re-outfitting. New jobs will be created because the demand for better cars will be great. It's a win-win.

So fuck Ford and GMAC. Save the kiss for when they deserve it.
