That pretty much locks it up....

I was going to go in on the republican candidates, but given that Shit Romney just pulled the plug on his run, it pretty much locks up an already leading Mccain. Personally, I think Mccain is a decent choice (I guess). I do disagree with some of his bullshit, namely his immigration and extended Iraq policies. That and the guy is like 200 years old. Most guys his age are trying to remember where they left the Fixodent. I hope he doesn't start hosting BINGO games in the oval office. However, he was supposedly tortured for like 5 years out in Vietnam or someshit which, if true, means that he can look at all the other candidates and say, "I kept it more realer, and will continue to keep it more realer. How's that for experience?" I'm sure some of the details surrounding the actual imprisonment have been embellished, but fuck it. If I came home from a POW camp (which is gully enough), I can not say for certain that I wouldn't exaggerate at least a little...you know, just to make myself look like the man. Can't knock that hustle.....

I should probably do some work here, considering that I am at work, but, to quote my favorite online video of the moment "not now chief, I'm in the zone!"

Like most people, I have my reservations with regards to the war in Iraq. I wouldn't quite put myself amongst the overly liberal humanitarian types, but I have a few problems with the way shit is being handled over there. I am just unsure why we continue to risk American lives to help people who blow themselves up. If the people of Iraq truly wanted a Democratic state, let that be their fucking job. I think that we should just be more forward about our agenda. Once we got Saddam out of power, we should have just jacked the resources (umm oil!) that we wanted and kept it moving. It's no fucking secret that we have a vested economic interest in the region. You know notable politicians and military minds in American history, such as George Washington, warned of the issues we could run into when we begin to overextend our influence into the affairs of foreign nations. I think we should have listened.....

Also, what's the deal with our military? No disrespect to any service members, but fuck. Are we going full scale over there? If what we are seeing from Iraq is any indication of the current strength of our military presence, it is pretty sad. With every bombed market or roadside massacre, we are losing the respect from the other superpowers. That is one reason why I disagree with the troop removal from Iraq. I would rather see the troops from around the globe be brought home to there families and send a full scale military intervention in Iraq. I do not think a cut a run is the way out. We have invested time, money and lives to this mission and it should be completed before we exit. However, the plan for its completion needs a serious adjustment. Namely, we just need to get a little bit grimmier.

I am not void of moral beliefs or sympathy for innocent civilians, but I think the time comes when we must gage the value of American soldiers over the bystanders. I mean, this is a war isn't it? I feel as though our lax approach of maintaining daily civility is one major cause for the continued aggression against our occupancy. It is extremely difficult to conquer an enemy we cannot see. As Katt Williams put it, "Can anyone tell me what the Iraq military uniform looks like?" In other words, we are not fighting a convention war against a convention army. This calls for unconventional measures. I do not have the answers as to how, but I feel a swift tomahawk missile attack would do the trick! No, but seriously, a quick and forceful (6 months, with an increase 100K troops) attack plan before a full withdrawal could prove beneficial. If nothing else, it sends the message to the world that we do not back down or leave a mission incomplete. (I am not sitting in my cubicle with a bald eagle bandana on or pumping my fist in the air, I'm just saying!)

In any event....holler for Ron Paul. Mccain means more Iraq and open borders. Just my opinion, for the two or maybe three people that will read this.

Vote or Don't...

With all the buzz around the silly ass "super Tuesday" voting nonsense, I figured I would chime in on my position. I will start by saying that I am officially endorsing a person with no shot at making it, but fuck it....Ron Paul, Holla! Anyway, I have been paying some attention (and by some attention I mean that a show was on when I woke up to take a piss the other night and it caught my attention for about twelve minutes) to these silly elections. Take the quiz below and see who you fucks with!
http://www.kieskompas-usa.nl/page/0/thema+s/

Below, I will make some quick judgments and give you my opinion of each candidate:

Obama: He seems like the lesser of two evils when it comes to going democratic. I don't by into the "lacks experience" argument because experience does not equate to capability. He seems a little to idealistic and while he presents seemingly plausible goals, he reminds me of the kid in your local grammar school student council elections that promised to get chocolate milk out of the water fountains and no homework on Friday's.

Pro :
He did stand forth with his belief that the Iraq War was worse then blood money in a pimps cum. And, he did it at a time when the approval rating for both Bush and the War were in the 90% range. Basically, he was firm in his decision and stood by it whilst campaigning for a run in the Senate. Therefore, he was willing to risk his potential politcial career by expressing a then unpopular opinion. In addition, he had the foresight to see what a shit storm we were walking into.

Con:
Having the middle name of "Hussein" does not sit well with some, especially those crazy middle Americans. That, in combination with his skin color, seems to bother the less educated population. Personally, the only problems I have is what was mentioned above. His ideals sound great, but seem to lack substance.

Hillary:
I guess I'm a hater, but I just don't like this bitch. It is just something she gives off that makes me think about slapping her with my strong hand, directly following a snowball fight. I guess the whole Clinton/Bush Dynasty creates a little resentment in me as well. And what experience does she have? She was the first lady to the most overrated president in history. She is just trying to use the popularity of her husbands' presidency for her own political success.

Pro:
She seems to have a better grasp of the political process. Also, I think she is a little more realistic with her goals in regards to troop withdrawal and immigration.

Con:
She seemed to outline an okay health care reform model, but then realized she needed the financial backing from the Big Healthcare Providers....so I guess that will need adjustments. Also, she is a woman. And no offense to women, but they are a crazy breed. We can have her mad at the Cabinet members because of the way they said something. Iran may need to be ready to go if Hillary is on the rag. (Side note: What kind of woman won't give her husband, who happends to be the fucking President of the United States, a descent blowjob? Instead, the poor man is forced to shot his load on the dress of some fat secretary.)


Check back tomorrow for a better look at the republican candidates.

what the dog shit?






First and foremost, I take nothing from a Giant team that slapped the Pats in the jibbs. Having said that, I think the Pats looked more like the Jets last night. Can someone explain to me why you don't kick a 49 yard field goal on 4th and 13? Or better yet, why is your 4th and 13 play a lob to a double covered Jabar Gaffney in the end zone? Shady.....




How about the 12 players on the field challenge? So you challenge that, but not the blantant fumble recovery that was taken away? Once the Patriot recovered the fumble and was touched....the play was over. Never mind being rolled over and having the ball taken from you. Granted, that was a supreme bitch move to allow the ball to be taken, but it should have been reviewed nonetheless.




Don't even get me started on the clock during the Giants last drive. There was a sequence, at about 1:28, when the clock just didn't run. Or, the clock stops because the jack-off ref's are trying to determine if the ball was a first down....and it just didn't start up again.




In addition, this was by far the poorest officiated game I have seen in a while. The ridiculous push off by Toomer was hysterical. The amazing (an it truly showed heart by Eli) sack evasion, should have been whistled dead per the stated rules "Officials are to blow the play dead as soon as the quarterback is clearly in the grasp and control of any tackler, and his safety is in jeopardy." Eli made a great play and Tyree was really using his head on that catch! (See what i did there....Zing!)




The Giants played excellent football, on both sides of the ball. The Patriots...not so much. I think the Giants deserved the win. But, in the spirit of hating, I want to state that I think their victory was due to one of three reasons:




1) Tom Brady found out that Moss went ass-to-mouth on Gisele the night before, thus causing his inability to focus.


2) Eli Manning received stem-cells to help recover from the obvious "short bus" gene in his pedigree. He, for the first time, seemed to have a clear understanding of where he was.


3) Bellichek and the Pats find it much harder to call the plays of the league leading offense when they can't film your defensive signals. Fucking rules......
