Awesome Football Game!!!!

I just caught the last 5 minutes of the game between the San Fransico 49er's and the New Orleans Saints, thinking I wouldn't get to see much.

WoW!!!  That was one of the coolest endings I have seen in a long time!!

All the lead changes and back and forth, and the underdogs coming out with the last minute win, this was what football is all about.

Sadly, I am now watching Tebow and the Broncos get slaughtered by the Patriots.  Too bad some of his luck isn't shining tonight!!

MN Vikings

These guys finish the year with a 3-13 record, an injured star player, and a questionable rookie quarterback.  Fitting way to end 2011.

NH gives nod to Mitt

I have just watched the first non-incumbent win both Iowa, and NH, and it is making me sick. 

The GOP establishment backs this guy, and gives him every advantage.

The base and the TEA party splits their votes among a handful of candidates.

And the can gets kicked farther down the road.

Leftists can be very stupid

Obama's class warfare pleas are growing in popularity across the country.  Even GOP frontrunner Mitt Romney is buying into them.  He has structured his entire tax policy around ideas that Obama could agree with. 

In reality, these policies by both the Democrats and the GOP are tearing our country to peices.  It is gutting our economy, and looks to continue that way for the forseeable future.

They appeal to people's emotions.  That is the only way they can use these arguements to get votes.  The fact is, the arguements don't make any sense. 

The richest people in America (the entire list of the Forbe 400) have a combined total wealth of $1.5 trillion.  Do you know what that means??  If leftists or Romney stole every single dollar and possession they have, and left them naked and starving in the gutter, it would still only pay for about 8 months of Obama's spending binge.  This is not a sustainable budget.  Even if we stopped it right now, it would take years to dig ourselves back out, and get to where we could be.  Our country is being destroyed by our leaders in slow motion, and it doesn't seem like there is anything we can do about it.
