Rant: Stop sticking up for politicians.

December 12th, 2008 Rob Lescaille No comments

I’m not sure while the Democrats are so pissed about Bush, he’s not even a true Republican by definition. He works closer to Democratic agendas than his own party. And he’s now giving them what they want by using TARP to bail out the automakers, going directly against his Republican colleagues. Yet they still trash on him. It’s amazing how much of their own identity people lose by sticking to their party lines – even when they know it’s not true. There’s corruption on both sides. Democrats like to cater to the poor and low middle class when they themselves are filthy rich and make money off these classes. Class warfare gives them leverage to pushing their pork agendas. Republicans have lost their fundamentals of limited govt and free market.

Bernanke and Paulson lied to everyone. Telling us that Fannie and Freddy were fine when they weren’t. Then they lied to us again about the 700B initiative that needed to be enacted “immediately” but has little to show for itself but bailing out all Bernanke’s friends. Then Bernanke wanted less transparency by managing the 700B himself. Everyone sticking up for politicians is wasting their time. Politics attracts corruption.

And now the messiah Obama is having to deal with this mess with the IL governor in which his own staff is tied to it in some way or another. I personally think Mr. Obama is tied to this in some way. How can you come out of the Chicago political machine and not have some corruption??

My point is, stop sticking up for these people that would step on you without a thought for their own agendas. There is so much social warfare lately it’s insane. We entrust and vote for these officials who we don’t even like based off utopian ideals and it never happens. This is not the America we should be and it will be our downfall. For some reason Banana Republic comes to mind. And I don’t mean for Christmas shopping at the mall!

Animals are more important than humans to PETA.

So recently PETA sent a letter to Ben and Jerry’s recommending they replace the use of cow’s milk with breast milk from humans. Yes, you heard right, HUMAN milk….in ice cream. What’s wrong with these people?? PETA comdemns the way cows are treated throughout the milking process. They claim humans are the only “species” that drinks the milk of another species. Thus, they are recommending the replacement of cow’s milk with human breast milk…one step at a time. Their choice for ice cream as the first step boggles my mind. These people are so fanatical they have completely lost perspective on life. Even their own followers acknowledge the craziness of this idea on the PETA blog. This has got to be the stupidest idea i’ve ever heard. What are they going to do? Recommend impregnating women and lining them up in a milking assembly line? What about the babies that will now not get crucial breast milk for growth? What’s sad is that I don’t think this is stupidity and accidental ommission of common sense. I think the people actually care more about animals than people. Dare I ask what their next recommendation will be?
