Darwinism?

There’s a whole bunch of ‘isms that come to mind right now. Is moronism or dumbassism a word? It should be.

5 months ago, a cartoon artist did what cartoon artist’s do…drew something that makes fun of someone else…he/she brings up issues via perception using stereotyping…and it’s funny. Someone might take offence to it, and get a little miffed, but then, the next cartoon comes out, and it makes fun of someone else, and you’re all ok.

There are millions of people that are pissed about a cartoon. A cartoon, a drawing. Millions of people rioting, killing each other, and governments supporting the hub-bub, over a cartoon. I see this on the news everyday, and all I see are thousands of morons. Dumbasses.

All these idiots that have such a trivial amount of self worth that they have to revolt because someone makes fun of you. Boo-fucking-hoo seems to come to mind real easily. But wait, how can I say this? I’m a White Male for one. I’m stereotyped as being the living incarnation of what’s wrong with the whole universe. I’m half Irish, and part Cherokee. Talk about “My people were slaves”…My People were run off of their lands and abandoned. The White Male is getting the biggest short end of the stick of all time, and we take it. It’s no bother, because a lot of us realize that we’re just putting up with dumb posturing by the feminists, the blacks, the Hispanics, the Asians, and the Islamic world.

How many cartoons out there are active in making fun of the white guy in various forms? Ton’s. Even more put down the white man, insult the white man…..everyday of the week. One day, someone draws Muhammad with an explosive turban….and half the world goes nuts.

After being around the world, in many countries with highly underdeveloped senses of self, under-educated fools, I honestly don’t care about how the rest of them kill themselves. Darwin would be proud. Seeing you idiots destroy your own countries, over trivial things like cartoons, well, I think y’all deserve it. You’re an embarrassment to the human population, to your families…

I say the quicker you can get to burnin’ down your own countries, killing yourselves with your C-4 Turbans, the better the rest of the world will be. I’d say ‘Get Started’, but obviously, you have…

Alido and Greenspan

Don’t we love politics….I know I do.
Judge Alito and the other two Supreme Court nominees were put through the blender, and making news everyday. It has to do with who and what they support, and why…how comfortable Dems are going to be with a conservative Justice, yada yada yada….It’s law, they have to support it. They’re not given the right to go on a whim…

Now we have Alan Greenspan, the captain of the Fed. He’s in charge of how money is managed on a national, and in respect, international level. His last day is today…Now, his replacement had to go through the same stuff in getting selected, sitting in front of congressional panels and senate panels, to make sure he’s the right one for the job…but that barely is known, never heard from on the news, gets page 12 in the paper…

It’s just another thing that leads me to believe that our society is steering more and more for the ‘Shiny’ parts of life, and not overly concerned with the nut’s and bolts. A majority of society seems to be now saying “I have an opinion, and it’s my right to have you sit and tolerate it”, not even concerned that their opinion is based on a popularity contest.

Are we seeing the second fall of the Roman empire here?

It gets deeper than that. It is beginning to be a whole philosophy in the government, all agencies and departments, that it’s not acceptable to make anybody mad. Let’s be their friends…even agencies that are mandated to have oversight on commercial companies aren’t doing their part to provide the protection that is said to be happening. Who here remembers a particular Tuesday in September of 2001. Who remembers who got blamed because they didn’t have the resources to complete the security envelope? Anybody?
Now, we have the manning, the resources. There aren’t so many new rules as before, it’s just now we have the people to do the enforcement. Now, however, is the philosophy of Friendship…Lets be friends with the people we have oversight on, instead of using the resources we have to enforce the standard. Ahh, isn’t that nice.

It’s also going to be the cause of the next of our next big incident…and what’s the public outcry going to be? Why Didn’t we stop this!!!

It’s because everyone wants to be complacent, forget security, pretend it just happens with no management, and blame others. But, at the same time, they (meaning all of you that this pertains to) don’t want to, or feel they have to, reduce their RIGHTS as a citizen at all. Because, after all, it’s being proven that the rights of the one outweigh the rights of the many.

The pain of self defeat

A couple of news stories that I’ve read this morning lead me to believe that our government and congressional leadership has either A. Lost their friggin minds, or B. Since most of them have never served their country besides the capacity in which they do now, don’t realize their impact.

For a bunch of crusty old men, their sense in matters makes no sense. Should we have senility checks every year, like we have drivers tests every year, over a certain age? If one person, representing thousands or millions of constituents, makes dumb decisions, should there be any type of mandatory Show Cause hearing?

The stories I’m referring to are these: Women May Be Banned From 22,000 Jobs & Army Offers 1 1/4-Year Hitch.
Ok folks, now, the past year it has been mentioned by only Everybody, to include Mr. Rumsfeld, that we’re short on soldiers in certain positions while being overstrengthed in others. It also has been noted that retention is at a low point. Now, lets take 22,000 jobs away from people who have the job and the experience already, and then convince me that this is helping the cause in any way. Does this mean that I’d prefer to see women killed? In a sense, yes. They too want to serve, or they’d not be here. I haven’t heard any major outcry yet about the women who have lost their lives, gotten blown up in a truck via an IED. Why not? Probably because in the sense of Equality, we’re finally realizing that it’s the way of the land, it’s more closely synchronizing laws with human nature. It’s the old cogier that was a lawmaker in the 60′s that’s still there today that can’t take it, take being equal to anybody else.

Lets tackle that other headline. The Army Offers 1 1/4-Year Hitch one. What’s this remind anybody here of? Anybody? It screams Draft to me, though this time, instead of the government grabbing their balls, they offer someone the opportunity to draft themselves. I have issues with this on a variety of levels. For one, a soldier isn’t going to really start to learn his/her job until after the first year. That first year they’re being bombarded by the reality of their new lives and the people in charge of that life. Sure, they learn, but nothing but an expansion of fundamentals, a total refinement of those fundamentals. They don’t start to really feel like a warfighter until that experience has ground down the rough spots and starts it’s refinement. Another reason I have an issue with this is due to the fact that this very 1 1/4 year enlistment will most likely cause a higher attrition rate among soldiers, because they come in and already have a short-timers attitude. The new soldiers today are already a pain in the ass to deal with, with their ghetto attitudes and the I Don’t Have to Listen to You attitudes ingrained in them due to the years of previous bad leadership. It quite literally takes a few years to breed that smugness out of them to make them truly part of the team. Until that time, they’re out for themselves. So, lets give new kids a year experience, where they don’t truly have to do anything but suck up a year. This decision is going to cost us a lot more than we think. A soldier doesn’t become a true soldier until the time comes where he/she realizes they’re a part of an organism, not the organism. They don’t get anything out of the experience until then. What really irks me, I believe, is that our own government is hollowing our armed forces. This happened after Vietnam and during the cold war, it happened again right after the last Iraq/Kuwait conflict, coinciding with the fall of our enemy of the cold war. We’re now stretched as thin as we can be stretched, and still trying to hollow ourselves. We’re being made insignificant, even though we’re the only ones doing the job. There isn’t a spare to fall back on in this case. The lawmakers have to realize that any conventional force is going to be attrite’d by non-conventional forces, that attrition is going to affect our ability. Yet, we’re also helping attrite ourselves.
