I pondered


After much debate I have decided to add something to my blog that is not political. Might as well just throw my thoughts out on random subjects as well. Not sure If I'm allowed by the Blog God's (upper case G or lower case g?) to challenge their dominance when it comes to writing awesome blogs, but you better believe I will try. Guess I'm a polytheist.



I have always been taught to Search, Ponder, and Pray. I have really only been great at the pondering part. The other two take so much work ( I'm not discussing works vs grace here so if there are any born again Christians that are suddenly thinking of a certain verse in Ephesians... then just stop...Hammer Time ) and honestly, I'm lazy. Luckily for me though it's easy to ponder while reclining and eating a party pizza.

So what have I pondered? This, and I guess it does tie in with politics.

There is so much talk of fixing our immigration problem in this country, and when anyone talks of this they are only speaking of one group, " Mexicans." Everyone is crying about them taking real Americans jobs and mooching of our welfare system. There is even the assumption they still work for $1.50 an hour ( which is crazy because they all demand 15 bucks an hour these days) but none these things really matter. What matters is they are now essential to our Country in an unseen way. They are the spiders getting rid of pests all around us and we don't know it. We all say we hate spiders but then realize if they didn't exist we would be overrun with Zeus only knows how many bugs.

So what population are our friends from the south helping to control?

I call it the hefty girls club.

There is nothing a grown Mexican man loves more than an American girl that looks like Louie Anderson. This is a fact. Maybe they would make the hair longer and have them wear a jean jacket but overall this is a good idea of what they want. So I think you can see I don't just mean heavy girls in general. I am talking the ones who hang outside the Plaid Pantry smoking a Cig and talking loudly on the only pay phone left in the U.S. I am talking the girls that need a man and are willing to give up and date with what appears to be Mario.



















If we throw all these Mexicans out then what will we do with their left over women? Can you imagine this. We would be looking at the chunky apocalypse.

Someone would have to start dating these women and trust me when I say HE can't do it all alone.



















All black men in this country would have to step up and take a plump white girl, and yes, I mean even those black guys that prefer thin girls or black girls. ( Not that they exist)
I'm almost certain we would have to start shelters for these poor girls because frankly, I think the average African American man today would realize what the white man was trying to push off on to him and they would revolt. This is where all those years of slavery might actually come back to bite us.
We would end up having to pay reparations just to get them to go along with our plan and I really don't think they will accept 40 acres and a mule.

Could this be huge in rap videos soon?





















I guess we could push them off onto the white man. Start a dating show called

"Who wants to drop their standards?"

Though that might already be a game show for Mormons who turn 30.

My point is that our country can't afford tossing out the people that serve me my biggie fries because the backlash is something we can't prepare for.

I have pondered this.

Life's not fair and neither are genetics


I am not sexy.



If I were I probably wouldn't be spending my time blogging about the most un-sexy topics known to man. I'm not a genius. If I was I'd probably have myself a masters degree with a high paying job to match. But I do know people that are sexy, and in no way have they worked hard to look as they do. Plus I know people that are so very smart, and shockingly they were born with that intellect. This is not fair.

This isn't fair because they have one up on me ( some people have way more than one as well) I thought the Constitution shouted at us " You're all created equal!!!!"


What a lie.

OK, so it's not a lie exactly, but I could accept it as a lie if I interrupted that line to mean "We are all born on a level playing field." Obviously we are not. Not even close.

Some of us are born poor. Others are born rich. A few of us can grow amazing beards. Most just seem somewhere in the middle, but we are all born with different strengths and weaknesses and must find ways to overcome are failings and harness our special powers we are given.

So why the push for fairness? We all know the saying, " Life's not fair." And yet some Utopian seekers want to change this truth. They are attempting politically to level the playing field that has an infinite amount of humps.

As with all plans by these people to find fairness all they end up doing is bringing great people down. Why do they have the right to do this?

I say in the name of fairness you can't read the same author twice. All authors should get an equal amount of readers. You read a horror novel by that heterosexual Stephen king last week? Then your reading a romance biography this week by a tri sexual female author. Enjoyed Sean Hannity's new book? That's great, but now in the name of fairness I need you to blaze through some Noam Chomsky. Now let's add that all authors should be published because fairness is all about equality of outcome as well. Doesn't matter that someone wrote a terrible book. They should be published and read because I believe in fairness!

In reality we should all be looked at as equals in the government's eyes. This means that they shouldn't favor one citizen over another. My status in society shouldn't allow me to obtain benefits from Washington that another citizen isn't allowed to receive.

The problem is that in search for fairness......we are no longer equals.

If I own a business and the government tells me that I can't fire someone for because they are Mormon then how are they not favoring the Mormon? We are no longer equal in the government's eyes.

The only way to have "fairness" is for the government to be neutral. If Washington decides to protect what they deem, " The stepped on" then they are just like the mother that starts favoring the picked on child. Once she does that she has already chosen a side and she can no longer be neutral.

Utopia is a dream because we live in a society of imperfect people. Fairness is a dream because life isn't fair.

But if someone does figure out a way for me to be as equally handsome as Brad Pitt........I might change my average mind.

The plantation owner is now a negro

Hearing a person actually promote the idea of freedom can be very threatening. It was threatening to me at first as well as it has been to any crowd listening to a libertarian speak for the first time. If you go back and watch Interviews with the Libertarian economist " Milton Friedman" with Phil Donahue, you will see the blank stares a majority of the audience gives Mr. Friedman whenever he talks of actual freedom.

Why this response? Are we not a free country? Doesn't the majority of us believe in freedom? My answer to that would be a huge NO. Now most people I have asked about freedom answer the same way, " Freedom with laws." OK, I agree with that because I am in no way an anarchist, but we need to really look at what we mean by "Laws"

I am all for laws that protect one citizen from directly hurting another. It's the governments job to protect me from the man next door who has decided to try and chop my head off with an ax. I am fully behind laws that protect my private property (land, money, possessions etc.) from being taken away from me by someone else. Contracts need to be enforced by the courts and i of course should have the right to sue someone that i feel has cheated or hurt me in some fashion.

I'm not going to go into all laws that should be enforced, but i do want to mention "laws" that have no real effect except stripping us of essential freedoms.

The best example of these kind of laws are what I like to call " Protects them from themselves laws"

The seat belt law is something we should all be able to look at and say in unison, " Why?"

Why must there be a law that tells me, a grow man, that I must protect myself when I drive?
I have to wear a bike helmet if i want to cruise via bicycle. I need a doctors approval if i want to try a drug for depression. The government lets us know all the time that our bodies are not 100% ours. They are protecting us from ourselves.

In a truly free society my body is my own. It is not partially owned by a some politicians I have never met, but by supporting drug, helmet, prostitution, and seat belt laws, that is exactly what we are saying. In reality we are telling the person next door that they don't own themselves.

This is why freedom is so scary for the majority. We have been brainwashed to believe that freedom involves slavery. Most people questions how the founders could fight for freedom and at the same time accept slavery, but this isn't really surprising since we believe in slavery today, just in a different form.

Are we not slaves to the government? Will we not be thrown in jail if we refuse to hand our property over to them? Can they not punish us for making a decision that only effects ourselves? Doesn't the draft allow Washington to force a person into the military?

They own us. They cash in our work before we do.

But the majority see's this as necessary and the idea of actual freedom put fear in the hears of the masses.

Fear of the unknown.

So when will the day come that Freedom is known?

Marriage laws are gay

Gay marriage will happen.


How long does America have before homosexuals all over this country are able to legally marry? I'd say not long at all. The rising generation is much more tolerant of alternative lifestyles than any generation before and they will soon start hitting the voting booths hard.
Of course with every strong tug in one direction causes an equally strong tug in the opposite. Action and reaction baby. I was walking through a high school a few months ago and noticed a poster on the wall that was promoting the celebration " Transgendered people." Now i have been out of school for a decade and that might seem like a century to some people, but it feels like yesterday to me, and this type of poster would have never been seen on the walls of my school. Acceptance of homosexuality as a lifestyle is rapidly becoming the norm so you know the push from the Religious community is going to be just as rapid and extreme to remind people that it should not be accepted.

Now if we were just dealing with the acceptance of being gay the battle would be much more quiet, but now that the gay community has pushed for the rights of marriage the battle has turned bloody and spilled out onto the streets. Gay's say we live in a free country and their civil rights should allow them the same rights to be married as a straight couple. The religious community argues against this because they say marriage is a religious institution and that God ordained marriage for a man and women alone. This battle sucks.

luckily for me the solution to this matter protects religion and at the same time allows freedom for homosexuals. Where did i first hear of this solution? Surprisingly enough it was from a guy that is about as liberal as can be and wants the government involved in almost every aspect of our lives, but when it comes to marriage he has a different view.

The problem is government, and so the solution is tossing them out.

We all have to ask ourselves why government is involved in marriage in the first place? Why must i get a marriage license? Am I not married if i truly believe I am? If the government disappeared would we then just be like, " Well i guess no one can be married anymore." No, because that would be ridiculous right?

Because the government has stepped in and made our personal business- their personal business- it is causing all the argument and fighting.

How about privatizing marriage? I can go to my local church and have the minister marry me and guess what? I'm freaking married!!! No license needed. Now if i decide that i want to make a legal contract with my spouse for problems like, What happens if one of us dies or we want a pre nup, then we have that option, but this fixes all problems. Marriage is kept religious for the religious and if your gay or you want to have 20 wives or husbands, then that's your business and it doesn't effect anyone else because "Marriage" is then only defined by you and you alone. If i don't want to accept two gay people as actually married then i don't have to and no law or government agency can tell me otherwise. That's freedom ladies.

Now i realize our system is screwed and with all the tax benefits and deductions and whatever else we have had shoved into our country that marriage is entangled with all parts of government. My proposal isn't any easy one or something that could be done overnight, but it's the only solution i can think of that doesn't take us deeper into Big government. Changes need to be made and then marriage can be saved from our real enemy- Big Gov.
