It's been a while, but life gets more surreal

I've been more busy lately doing other things. It's been quite a while. Being in the journalism world, I haven't had my time to vent and here we go.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average is improving, for the time being at least. Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner is still as stupid as before. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi thinks she is queen Pelosi by threatening her private airline, the U.S. Air Force. And we have the messenger of "hope" who has broken every promise he made during the election cycle. The latest is ear marks. Oh, remember his promise to get a dog from a shelter? That was broken too. Big or small, he breaks them all.

During the week, I found out that America is becoming less Christian. Well, I guess Obama did say he wanted America to become like Europe. And later in the week, Christian Science Monitor had an article about the future of Christianity in America. It had mainline protestantism collapsing and the conservative evangelicals turning liberal. So, really, no more God. What a bright and happy future! I hope that doesn't happen. America needs God. The more we believe in Him, the more we believe in what America can become. Europe forgot that and look what happened to them.

"I hope he fails," is the quote of 2009, at least on certain networks. They attack Rush Limbaugh for his First Amendment right to speak. Now when the liberals said they hoped George Bush failed, that got a pass. Any bias?

Hearst these days doesn't care about its newspapers. The Seattle PI may go bust next week. And, now I hear that the San Francisco Chronicle may be next.

Even Time.com had an article saying the New York Daily News was about to close. It turned out the article was plain wrong, but hey, who's really checking the accuracy of stories these days? The Daily News is going to publish every page in color starting in October. That is the real news, not made up.

Then today, I heard that the United States let out the leader of the Taliban in Afghanistan from Gitmo in December. Good move. I'm not sure who to blame, Bush or Defense Secretary Gates? This is something Obama would do! What happened?!?!?!?

Obama is now allowing federal funding to stem cell research. Yipee, let's kill babies! My gosh! Obama says he is a Christian, so look at the Bible once in a while, instead of the teleprompter.

Oh, and last week we had the U.S. Senate voting for the D.C. Voting Rights Act, which is unconstitutional. Only states can have voting rights. If D.C. can vote, why can't Puerto Rico? Guam? U.S. Virgin Islands? May I go on? Good thing it was stripped from the books when the House realized a few things.

The U.S. Congress wants to create more debt for the future. Good idea. It's worked well before. Oh...wait.

"This war is lost." Who said that? That would be Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid about the Iraq war. Any uproar when he said that? Nope.

yee haw!
