I'm Back

Grades are back, I survived another semester, my grades were kool, but there is always room for improvement. I have not blogged since finals began, and alot of has taken place in that time. Before I get started, I have to send a shout out to me lil sister, who graduated this past weekend from San Diego State University (Party School) with a degree in Marketing. YOU GO GIRL!!! Let's see. I gotta give props to George Galloway who was called before the Senate to testify on the so called Oil for Food Scandal. Mr. Galloway broke the Senate off something proper. His testimony is a must see. Click on the link below, I hear we are still winning the war in Iraq. Take a look at the all the young men and women who have lost their lives in this so called War. Locally, the powers that be finally appear to have the goods on State Senator John Ford. Smells like entrapment to me, but it looks like there was an all out effort to take John and many other local leaders down as possible. The Tennessee Waltz is really an assault on the City of Memphis. Looks like the tool used was Tim Willis. Looks like he took his roledex out and starting making calls on behalf of the F.B.I. The whole thing really sucks because not only are those indicted going to hurt if convicted, but the citizens of Memphis lose one of the its best advocates and other key local officials who were effective in Nashville. The only possible positive out of this mess is that maybe some new young leadership will take one of the seats that will become vacant if and when those others resign. All I know is that there appears to be an all out assault on Memphis. These indicted politicians are not the only ones who play the game like this, I hate to pull the race card, so before I do, I digress. I end with this letter which was posted on Bartcop.com. I thought I would share it. Subject: Dear Red States We're ticked off at the way you've treated California, and we've decided we're leaving. We intend to form our own country, and we're taking the other Blue States with us. In case you aren't aware, that includes Hawaii, Oregon, Washington, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois and all the Northeast. We believe this split will be beneficial to the nation, and especially to the people of the new country of New California. To sum up briefly: You get Texas, Oklahoma and all the slave states. We get stem cell research and the best beaches. We get Elliot Spitzer. You get Ken Lay. We get the Statue of Liberty. You get OpryLand. We get Intel and Microsoft. You get WorldCom. We get Harvard. You get Ole' Miss. We get 85 percent of America's venture capital and entrepreneurs. You get Alabama. We get two-thirds of the tax revenue, you get to make the red states pay their fair share. Since our aggregate divorce rate is 22 percent lower than the Christian Coalition's, we get a bunch of happy families. You get a bunch of single moms. Please be aware that Nuevo California will be pro-choice and anti-war, and we're going to want all our citizens back from Iraq at once. If you need people to fight, ask your evangelicals. They have kids they're apparently willing to send to their deaths for no purpose, and they don't care if you don't show pictures of their children's caskets coming home. We do wish you success in Iraq,and hope that the WMDs turn up, but we're not willing to spend our resources in Bush's Quagmire. With the Blue States in hand, we will have firm control of 80 percent of the country's fresh water, more than 90 percent of the pineapple and lettuce, 92 percent of the nation's fresh fruit, 95 percent of America's quality wines (you can serve French wines at state dinners) 90 percent of all cheese, 90 percent of the high tech industry, most of the U.S. low-sulfur coal, all living redwoods, sequoias and condors, all the Ivy and Seven Sister schools, plus Harvard, Yale, Stanford, Cal Tech and MIT. With the Red States, on the other hand, you will have to cope with 88 percent of all obese Americans (and their projected health care costs), 92 percent of all U.S. mosquitoes, nearly 100 percent of the tornadoes, 90 percent of the hurricanes, 99 percent of all Southern Baptists, virtually 100 percent of all televangelists, Rush Limbaugh, Bob Jones University, Clemson and the University of Georgia. We get Hollywood and Yosemite, thank you. Additionally, 38 percent of those in the Red states believe Jonah was actually swallowed by a whale,62 percent believe life is sacred unless we're discussing the death penalty or gun laws, 44 percent say that evolution is only a theory, 53 percent that Saddam was involved in 9/11 and 61 percent of you crazy bastards believe you are people with higher morals then we lefties. By the way, we're taking the good pot, too. You can have that dirt weed they grow in Mexico. Sincerely, Author Unknown in New California.
