Fart, cut the cheese, pass gas, blowing ass, butt burps, air biscuits, ass trumpet, barking spider, cheek flappers, tommy squeaker, trouser trumpet.  Whatever you call it, Rajendra Pachauri says “ass gas” is killing the world and is a bigger concern to Global Waring than all vehicles.  <cough dumb ass cough>  He would like each and everyone of us to stop eating meat so much and cut down the amount of livestock we have.  “Give up meat for one day [per week] at least initially, and decrease it from there,” Pachauri told Britain’s Observer newspaper. “In terms of immediacy of action and the feasibility of bringing about reductions in a short period of time, it clearly is the most attractive opportunity.”

So what this guy is saying is that each and every one of us red meat eaters is BBQing the Earth.  I am sorry to correct you Captain Dumbass, but if I were to say eat just eggs, broccoli, SPAM and some other random veggies…my air biscuits would be about as deadly as ever.  Let’s look at cows.  You claim they let off some of the worst gas in the world…but they do not eat meat.  So if you take away cows and other animals and make people eat veggies and non-animal products we would be just as bad as the grass eating cows.  We would have a world of butt trumpets blowing away the ozone layer in a matter of months..not years.  seriously man, are you really that retarded and ignorant o think that making people eat less red meat would help the planet. Guess what man, Mother Nature herself causes more issues to the air than mankind could ever do in a thousand years.  Hurricane Katrina not only wrecked havoc on people in LA and MS but it destroyed thousands of trees by dumping salt water on them.  Instead of trying to blame people, society and animals for “killing the planet with Global Warming’, why don’t you study up on common sense and think out things first.  Global Warming is just a way for people to try and scare other people into feeling guilty.  Guess what folks, this place was once all ice.  Do you remember the 70’s and early 80’s when we were told that the planet was falling into an ice age?  What happened?  Nothing.  If Global Warming was actually a major threat to the world, why do we still have winter?  Why have some of the recent winters been so cold and wet?  This summer in Colorado it was actually cooler than last summer.  Having a 4th grade education in Science is okay…as long as you are in the 4th grade.

Pull your head all the way out of your ass and think before you speak.  Having premature stupid thought syndrome is okay, as long as you keep it to yourself.  I will continue to eat red meat, fish and poultry for the rest of my life.  I will continue to blow ass on every person I can just for grins.

Enjoy life people, stop worrying about every little detail and concern of others.  Wake up, dutch oven your significant other, go to work, play ass trumpets in the break room and laugh.

Do you work in the IT field?  I do.  Are you a “Jack of all trades”?  I am.  Do you have a great counterpart working with you?  I do.  Could the two of you take over a small country with your incredible ability to intimidate and b.s.?  We could.  Between you and your co-worker, do you have the IT intelligence of an entire team of engineers and then some?  We do.  If you are like our IT group, we have a vast knowledge of just about everything and are always looking for ways to implement the newest technology.  We have a mix of male, female and something or other.  We have the jokers and the HR friendly at all times folks.  We have a great boss with an even greater personality.  Bottom line, we get the job done.

I am sure there are numerous others out there like us and I am sure you are just as proud as we are and just as confused as well.  Why is it that when you have the talent pool of IT Gods/Goddesses would your company go out and hire a group of “high priced” consultants?  That hits us all in the mouth at some point and time.  Do we take insult to this?  Sometimes.  Do we get mad?  Sometimes.  Then after some time and some serious money goes flying out the door, what happens?  Things sometimes do not go as planned and the powers to be look for the reason.  Then the finger pointing and gestures begin.  The consultants blame the internal team or infrastructure and the internal team just sits there in disbelief.  We sit there thinking to ourselves…wait a minute, did we just get blamed for something we have no part of?  Did they just call us out as retards?  Did they just treat us like newbs?  It happens folks…and I am here today to show you how to fight back against the onslaught of BS!

So you want to know what helps prevent you getting bombed by management and the consultant team?  One word folks, documentation.  Document everything in your department before, during and after the consultants are there.  The one thing a consultant cannot defend himself/herself againest is good documentation.  Always stand tall with your department and be there for your team from start to finish.  Never shy away from questions, just point them in the direction of your documentation.

Consultants are not a bad thing and they are not the enemy for the most part.  But they can cause a huge stir if they come in and find a rats nest in your department and you have zero documentation.Word to the wise for consultants, never try and bury a person that can help you out of a jam.  Especially if he/she finds out you ****ed up and can prove it.  We are proud.  We are strong.  We have many flash drives of naughty photos of you in the server room dancing to “Goodbye Horses”.

Reason for this story - Left Brain and Right Brain were attacked by a group of consultants and the consultants lost.  They not only lost but are now forking out the big bucks to get it fixed.  Do not mess with the Brain folks…we are evil in ways that has never been seen on the big screen.

Remember back in the day of the playground games and gym class where you picked teams?  There was always that kid that got picked last all of the time.  It sucked but it is a part of the human brain that says, “I must win and you will not help me”.  I came across a story about a 9 year old boy who is now being told he is “too” good at baseball to play with the other kids.  WTF?!?  Are you f’ing kidding me people???  Since he has excelled at baseball and throws harder than the other kids, the league has banned him from pitching and are now disbanding his team to make it fair for the other teams.  Now mind you, his team is already 8-0 and moving right into the playoffs.  Sounds like a little league conspiracy to me.

Conspiracy theory note: Jericho’s coach and parents say the boy is being unfairly targeted because he turned down an invitation to join the defending league champion, which is sponsored by an employer of one of the league’s administrators.

Jericho instead joined a team sponsored by Will Power Fitness. The team was 8-0 and on its way to the playoffs when Jericho was banned from pitching.

I am sorry folks, but I dare…no I double dog dare the local little league here in Douglas County to say my son is too good at football or baseball or the local ballerina team.  They will have one pissed off Blogger on their hands. 

If you would like to read the story, it can be found at 9 year old told he is too good.

People, stop trying to belittle kids because you think they cannot compete with a good player.  Let them challenge themselves and prove a point.  You might be surprised to know that there are a lot of good athletes out there among all of the boys and girls.  Most parents just try to protect their kids and it forces them to walk away.  If my son was in his league, I would tell him to go out and knock the f’ing cover off the ball or strikeout swinging and stand tall knowing oyu tried.  Stop telling your kids to back down, encourage them people.  And you wonder what is wrong with our kids anymore…maybe look at some of the parents.

Rules to kids sports - No matter what the game is

1 - Play as a team
2 - Smile
3 - Have fun
4 - Always put your best out there, never leave knowing you could have done more
5 - Encourage your teammates, no matter what happens
6 - Have fun

With the DNC now in Denver and in high gear, I started to think “why is everyone so mad?”.  I left work today from Downtown Denver and all hell was breaking loose.  There was protesting going on everywhere.  People were protesting the war, gay and lesbian crap, religious crap, political crap and so on.  I actually read a couple of signs that said, “Homo sex is Sin” and “Gay sex is destroying the World”.  Holy homo erotica Batman, what will we ever do to stop this crime wave of GAY SEX?!?  Are you kidding me people?  Do you actually have proof that gay sex is destroying the World?  I mean, is gay sex the root of all Global Warming issues?  By the way, “Homo sex is Sin”, where the **** did you learn your English from?  I am wondering though, did (insert religious figure name here) tell you that Homo sex is a sin?  My guess is no, you just came up with that thought from “your” understanding of the Bible or sand-script or cowboy hat or whatever you get your religious words from.

Okay, back to my point.  What is the definition of World Peace?  Some say World Peace is loving each other and everything and the right to enjoy life to it’s fullest.  I think not people.  To me, World Peace is not a feeling, it is something that happens.  When I have “great sex” I get a feeling of Peace and Harmony but that is not World Peace.  This is a complicated phrase and it can mean so many things to so many people.  I will give you the answer to World Peace shortly.

There are groups all over the World that think they have the “answer” to World Peace.  Take for example, answercoalition.org, which uses the phrase ANSWER as their slogan.  They claim that ANSWER means, act now stop war end racism.  WTF?!?  Why is everything in this World have to come down to Racism?  I know, because you will always blame Racism like the tree humpers of the world blaming Global Warming.  They actually chant stuff like this, “1 2 3 4 we don’t want this f***ing war!”.  Who wants war you friging morons, it is a way of life.  It happens and it will always happen.  I heard Penn and Tellerexplain that this group needs to change ANSWER to mean, assholic nimrod socialist wads end racism.  I sort of agree with this, but 100%.  If I were to help market this ANSWER group it might mean something like this, anarchy narcissistic socialist whacko end retardation.  FYI, this group was formed right after 9/11/01, whcih we all know what day that was.  Guess what dumbs**ts, terrorist groups are not racists…they target everyone based off of their geographic location.  Funny thing is this, they run around in red shirts trying to promote the idea of not going to war.  Did you realize that red is the color of rage?  My guess is, no, considering after we listened to you it came across as you had a third world education.  25+ years old with the intelligence of a 5 year old jackal.

Okay let’s move on to the next group of “retards”.  Code Pink is another mentally challenged group, codepinkalert.org.  This is a group that has a slogan, Women for Peace.  But yet, in watching this group they are about 50% men and 50% women.  I think the slogan should be rethought and redone.  Just a thought.  They are currently promoting their new march or protest, Don’t Bomb Iran!  Now I want you to look very closely at this banner from their site…very closely.

Is it me, or does that say “Don’t Iraq Iran!” in the background test???  Maybe I am a bit to manly to understand this but what in the **** does “Don’t Iraq Iran” mean?  Are you trying to say in a very Martha Stewart way, Don’t do to Iran what we are currently doing to Iraq?  If it is, go home and bake me a f***ing pie and shut the **** up.  I cannot wait to run into this “pink” group during the DNC this week.  People if you want to protest, make some f***ing sense out of it.

Okay, so my theory is this.  People protest to just get their feelings out and to have their voice heard.  That is fine, we live in a country where we promote free speech.  But let me tell you something, if you want to protest and challenge people…then be prepared to defend your cause.  When someone, like myself, challenges your debate of whatever you are protesting…then seem like you know something and have an intelligent response or defense.

Secret to World Peace - This is actually very simple folks.  Money, dinero, green backs, cash.  Trade.  Financial inter-dependence.  As long as money is flowing from country to country adn there is trading going on and people are making a financial gain, they will be happy and the countries will get along.  That is my version of World Peace.

I will have the play by play on any and all protest confrintations from the DNC week here in Denver.

p.s.  Qdoba is promoting a new campaign, “Burritos for Obama”.  That is funny.  Thanks for the shirt by the way, Pedro loves it.

As everyone and their mother knows (wink wink Travis), I truly believe that Global Warming is crap piled onto more crap.  When a group of Scientists cannot determine the cause of an issue, they are quick to blame Global Warming.  I mean, when a server crashes next time i think I will blame Global Warming.  Sounds good to me anyways.  Everybody else is using this excuse, why can’t I use it.  Oh, my IBS is acting up…Global Warming.  BlackBerry is not getting e-mail…Global Warming.  Prisons are over populated…Global Warming.  Do you get my picture people?  Stop blaming the most made up media blown out of proportion bull****!

Frog killer is linked to Global Warming

This article is a great example.  They believe that Global Warming is to blame for the frogs dying off in record numbers.  The researchers implicate global warming, as opposed to local variations in temperature or other conditions. Their conclusion is based on their finding that patterns of fungus outbreaks and extinctions in widely dispersed patches of habitat were synchronized in a way that could not be explained by chance. - Since it could not be explained by chance, it is the fault of Global Warming.  The die-offs of harlequins and some other amphibians reflect the spread and repeated introductions of the chytrid fungus.  In other words, it was a fungus that was introduced into their environment…not because it got hot one summer in the rain forest you turd nuggets.

“The frogs are sending an alarm call to all concerned about the future of biodiversity and the need to protect the greatest of all open-access resources - the atmosphere,” write the scientists, Andy Dobson, a Princeton University ecologist, and Andrew R. Blaustein, a zoologist at Oregon State University. - So now that Dr. Dolittle here has confirmed that the frogs are telling him that Global Warmingis the factor, he went with it.  Maybe Mr. Dobson (funny how people with the last name of Dobson get on my nerves) needs to stop licking frogs and getting high and hearing crap.  Show us facts, not frog drug induced statements.

“There is so much we still do not know!” David B. Wake, a biologist at the University of California, Berkeley, wrote in an e-mail note after reading the new paper. The origin of the fungus and the way it kills amphibians remain unknown, he said, and there are ample mysteries about why it breaks out in certain places and times and not others. - Very well said.  You have ZERO proof about what is happening to the frogs other than the fact that they are dying.  Why does it happen in one place but not another?  Hello!  Global Warming is supposed to affect the GLOBE, not just one stretch of a river bank.

I seriously think that the Global Warming issue has become such a joke that people just run with it and hope they get the attention they think they deserve.  Please people, strap your damn helmets a little tighter and think for yourself.

Personally, a child needs a good whooping every now and then.  It lets them understand their place on the food chain at home.  Okay, no I do not eat my children but I do punish them.  Punishments can range from losing a cool toy, MP3 player or TV/Computer privileges.  But when they are young and do not understand what thy have, they get a good old fashioned spanking.

I remember when I was a kid, I used to get the living hell beat out of me.  Did it help?  I think it did…nah, who am I kidding.  I never grew up till I was like 27 years old.

Anyways, back to the point.  There is an article out there today about a group that thinks spanking or paddling is not a good thing.  They want schools and parents to stop this corporal punishment now.  They feel it leads to teaching children violence…no stupid people leads us to violence.  Wait, schools get to whoop kids too???  I did not even know schools still did this…but they do.  There is 21 states that this is still legal and the following states use it regularly, Missouri, Kentucky, Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Tennessee and Florida.  I say good for them, more states should follow in their footsteps.

200,000+ Kids spanked at school last year

Part of the article has quotes from James Dobson himself.  get this, we actually agree to a point.  That is freaking scary to me, because he is not exactly the smartest peanut in the turd.

“Corporal punishment is not effective at the junior and senior high school levels, and I do not recommend its application” Dobson said on the organization’s Web site.  - I agree here, I do not want some teacher spanking my older child at school.  The older they get, the less it helps.  You need a better way of punishing them.  Kick them out of sports or hold them back in school.  Something, just not physically touching them at that age.

“It can be useful for elementary students, especially with amateur clowns (as opposed to hard-core troublemakers). For this reason, I am opposed to abolishing spanking in elementary schools because we have systematically eliminated the tools with which teachers have traditionally backed up their word. We’re now down to a precious few. Let’s not go any further in that direction.” - Wait a second, am I actually agreeing with this monkey turd?  Sort of, I think all schools should have the ability to spank kids ages 10 and younger.  if they get out of line, cause problems and will not listen…SMACK THAT ASS!

Kids these days are getting way out of control anymore.  Girls have the need to dress in as little clothing as possible and boys for some reason like to wear their pants/shorts all drooped down.  Do you dumb ass boys realize that sagging your drawers is a meaning of “I am ready for butt sex”?  That is right, this is a visual aid created back in the old prison days.  You sag your pants, you are a bitch and ready to have your corn hole plugged.  So every time you see a kid with his pants sagging, just laugh it off as he is saying, “Hey world, I like butt sex and I am ready to take your load”.  And girls, the less clothes you wear…well…you tend to look pretty damn slutty to a point.  A black bra under a white tank top, short shorts with your butt cheeks hanging out and pants so damn low we can tell whether you wiped your butt the last time you used the restroom.  Not attractive in the least.  There is a time and place for these outfits.  Guys, try and do this in prison and I bet you change your mind about how cool you look.  Girls, find out how many sex offenders live near you or your school and I bet you will think about that little shirt and no bra before you hit the mall.

Wow, we have gotten way off path here.  The idea is this, kids need to be punished.  It helps them understand right from wrong.  Does it help all of them, no, but it will help a majority.  You can sit there and say, spanking will not help my child and you may be right.  Prison has not helped all inmates, but I bet it sure made most of them think twice…especially when they sag their pants.

Still think spanking is not needed or is a harmful way to deal with kids?!?  Have you ever been at a store or restaurant and heard that kid in the back or right next to you screaming at his/her parents and thought, “OMFG, would you just beat that child already!”.  I have and I know I am not alone on this one.

Now let’s get to the part of the story that really gets me going.  They claim that the majority of the kids spanked are black.  Is this where we are going today people?  Everything in society has to be black or white.  I am so sick and tired of everyone writing stories claiming the black community is being put down again.  Here is the story line for the raciest kid spanker’s,

The punishment is disproportionately applied to black students, according to the organizations. During the 2006-07 school year, for instance, black students made up 17.1 percent of the nationwide student population but 35.6 percent of those paddled at schools.

So let me get this straight, of all students in teh country there is only 17.1% that are black and 35.6% of that 17.1% were paddled last year.  I am no math expert, but that number does not add up to being a black problem.  According to my math, 82.9% of the students are not black.  People, stop making this a racial issue.  If the kids get out of line, they get punished.

Everyone who knows me, knows my feelings on this group.  Focus on the Family is a bunch of hypocritical people that feel they can control everyone’s lives.  They preach that being gay is a sin and you should be shun by all family and friends.  Without going to deep into this, let’s get right to the point.  They are actually asking people to pray for rain during Obama speech at Invesco Field during the DNC.  Why?  Because they feel he is the wrong person for our President.  Really?  Really?!?  If they are praying for rain on Obama, I can only imagine what they are praying to have happen to me.  Well bring it on Mr. Dobson and all of his freak show followers.

I seriously thought that the Bible told us to love all of God’s creatures.  So what I am gathering is that Focus on the Family loves all those that listen to them and believe all the crap that they toss in the air.  If there is a cult in this country, I think this is it.  You say you live and die by the Bible, but still live against most of the words in the Bible.

I mean you even had a “Leader” of your church get busted using drugs and having sex with a male prostitute.  Hello, if a man is having sex with another man and is doing this without being forced…HE IS GAY!  Just because you have a wife and have sex with her but still go behind her back and have sex with other men…that does not make you heterosexual.  You are then considered a BI-SEXUAL.  Let’s not forget that you have now cheated on your wife.  So, cheat on wife, have butt sex with men, do drugs and lie about everything but go to work and ask for forgiveness from God.  If you truly believe that by doing this you are still a holy man and going to heaven…guess again.  You will be visiting me in the hot paradise we like to call Hell.

I have a great idea, why doesn’t Focus on the Family…FOCUS ON YOUR OWN DAMN FAMILY!

  This story was seen on 9News.com.

Everyone please join me in a prayer.  We are now praying for a small opening in the Earth just below the Focus on the Family building in Colorado Springs.  It will open and suck their buildings right up and forever leave us in peace.

So I read this story about a man who killed a transgenderafter figuring out that this woman used to be a man.  As I read the story, it comes to light that he went on a date, received some oral pleasure.  Then later went on another date with this woman and started to wonder if this was really a woman.  Looking at pictures and asking questions and then finally grabbing the woman’s crotch to find a PENIS!  Then proceeded to kill her.

I found this story very disturbing and actually bothered me.  First of all, if you have doubts you are dating a woman and actually have to ask, “Are you a man or a woman?”, that is usually a good sign that you have found a reason to move on from this relationship.  Second, when the woman answers back, “I am all woman.”, that should have prompted some questions in your mind.  This bothers me though, just because she is a transgender person…does it make it right to hate this person???  She is a woman and a human being just like the rest of us.  Plus she gave you a nice parting gift on the first date, blow-job, and you kindly accepted with no care in the world.  So basically you actually liked this person enough to receive the oral gift and you went on another date.  Sounds like love in the making to me. 

Okay, let’s make some light of this sick person now.  You go on date, get head, go on another date then murder her.  Now you are charged with murder, which means you are going to prison.  Now the story will get spread very quickly about who you are and I am sure you will have chances to explain yourself.  Ah, but my ignorant male monkey, you are about to find out what it is like to give pleasure now.  As I am sure you will have plenty of time to think about what life would be like with Angie Zapata, had you not killed her.  So Alan, enjoy your time behind bars…over bars…in the shower…behind the shower…in bed…under bed…and make sure you use mouthwash.  Maybe I can send you some Orbitz gum, because we all hate a dirty mouth.

p.s.  Make sure you wear your shower shoes when taking a shower.  That floor can get a little messy, especially after magazines have been delivered.

Before I begin, this post is brought to you by the Black and Single: Is marriage really for white people? story on CNN.com.  I am sorry if you find this to be an offensive story, but dammit people this **** drives  crazy!

Is marriage really for white people?  45 percent of black women have never been married compared to 23 percent of white women.  Hello, have you ever thought to factor in that 50% of all marriages end in divorce?!?  That is right, over 50% of ALL marriages end in divorce.  Also, have you ever thought that maybe some black women do not want to marry another race, which means they have to battle the 2 black women to 1 black man ratio?

This story basically says that Mrs. Allen, a white woman, had it “all” and she (Dionne Hill - un-married black woman) wanted to be just like her.  Do you know what Mrs. Allen’s life was like at home or did you just assume?  She (Dionne Hill - un-married black woman) wanted to be married, have a house and kids and have a solid education.  She goes on to say that she has to withstand the jokes of being single and is always asked, “Why are you single?”.  Here is an answer for you, you are single because you have made that decision.  Every time you start to date someone you, you put up the wall and push men away or decide that the man in your life is not good enough or maybe even that he is not ready for marriage.  Maybe you have a bad judge in character.  Maybe you are hard to deal with and no one wants to marry you.  Being single is not a bad thing and it is not a good thing…it is a fact of life for every single person in this world.  We are not born married, we work through our lives and get married.  Maybe you are still single and have not found the right man because you are gay.  Maybe there is no perfect man in this world for you, maybe there is a perfect woman out there for you.

I am seriously expecting this to be the next topic on the Presidential debate.

“As President of these United States, I vow to help black women meet their ‘one and only’ soul mate and get married.  I will ensure that all ‘babies mommas’ have a husband to go home to.  <Raises glass>  Here is one for me and one for my homies.  Peace up, W Town.  Goodnight.” - McCain

OMFG!  Are we really a nation of whiners or what?!?  Are we really this narrow minded that we see everything mother ******* thing as a black and white issue?  For the love of <insert religious person here> people.  Grow up, grow a pair and take life head on.  Instead of blaming society for your issues, maybe take a look at yourself and figure out what is wrong with you.  Being a black woman and not being married is not a black issue.

Would you rather get married to the wrong person and then end up getting divorced?  When are we as a society going to step up and take control of our own lives and our own issues?  Stop blaming other people/things/places/drugs/alcohol/parents for your short comings.

This is all a great big circle of life folks.  Things happen for a reason and you cannot control most of them.  One thing that is wrong with society is that when one ignorant person makes an offensive comment, people fault the entire race, not the person who said the remark.  I hear this crap everyday when riding the train and walking through downtown Denver.  The Presidential campaign is even getting “Black and White” and not in the direction you would think.  People are calling Obama out for being too white and leaning towards helping the white people.  Are you ******* serious folks?  The average person in America is not a racist.  I am not a racist, but I hate lazy and ignorant people!  Every race has a bad gene pool in it.  For example, there are white people and then there is white trash.  I could go on but then someone would assume that I am racist.  If you feel that you are more qualified for a job, then prove it.  If you feel you deserve a nicer car or nicer home in a better neighborhood, then go buy them.  I worked my ass off my entire life to get where I am.  I was not handed a great job, a car, a home, a wife and kids…I earned them.  I have worked hard and still work hard at what I do to succeed in life.  But before I got to where I am today I struggled and had issues.  I lived pay check to pay check and ate Ramen Noodles and drank generic Kool-Aid but I made it.  I never once blamed anyone for it.  I blamed myself and decided to make a better life for myself.  I made mistakes and got in trouble with the law but never blamed anyone, it was my fault.  I have a biological father who was a drunk, drug user and mental/physical abuser…but I have never used him as an excuse.  My first step-father was a drunk/drug user and mental/physical abuser…again I never used him as an excuse.  Everything that has happened to me in my life has been my fault and my fault only.

I grew up, maybe it is your turn.  Grow up America.

Hold the phones ladies and gentlemen.  I am not about to get into some crazy “Boyz in da Hood” blacks killing blacks.  I am not the person that knows anything about that and would never discuss it.  But I will however talk about how one comment made by Rev. Jesse Jackson that just about made me cry I was laughing so bad.

 During a recent interview on Fox News, Jackson was speaking to another interviewee, Dr. Reed V. Tuckson.  During this conversation, one of the open microphones caught Jackson saying…“see, Barack’s been talking down to black people…I want to cut his nuts off”.  WOW!  Talk about letting us know how you feel about the Democratic nominee.  I mean that is some serious hate talk there folks.  You want to cut his nuts off?  Really?  REALLY?!?

This is not even the best part of this story.  Did you know that Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. (Rev. Jesse Jackson’s son) is the co-chair of Obama’s presidential campaign?  You talk about making the next family dinner a little awkward.  I can see it now, Jr. asks Dad to “please pass the nuts and gravy”.  The funny thing is that not only are most folks tired of listening to Rev. Jesse Jackson stick his nose into just about anything to get his name out there, but his own son had some nice things to say as well about his father.

“I’m deeply outraged and disappointed in Rev. Jackson’s reckless statements about Sen. Barack Obama,” the younger Jackson said. “His divisive and demeaning comments about the presumptive Democratic nominee — and I believe the next president of the United States — contradict his inspiring and courageous career.”

Jackson Jr. added that he’ll “always love” his father. But, he said, “I thoroughly reject and repudiate his ugly rhetoric.”

Now, Daddy Jackson has made his public apology to Obama and his campaign.  He also said that once this hit the media, the media would spin this into more than it really meant.  What???  If I were to say to Travis…”hey man, that Chris has really been talking down to the end users lately…I just want to cut his nuts off”…I think Travis would feel that I might actually want to cut Chris’s nuts off.  How in the halibut can someone turn this and make it any worse?  You want his nuts cut off Jackson.  There is no other way to read that and not see what you meant.

Okay, so you might be asking yourself why would he say this about Obama?  Well, let me enlighten you as to what made him so made.  In a recent Father’s Day speech at a black church, Obama took absent black fathers to task, saying, “We need them to realize that what makes you a man is not the ability to have a child — it’s the courage to raise one.”  Jackson feels that Obama was calling out on Black men in general and needs to understand that there is more than just “Daddy” issues for the Black community.  Jackson wants Obama to understand that there is more than just “moral challenges” for the Black voters.  The black community is faced with high levels of unemployment, home foreclosures and violence, “so we have some real serious issues — not just moral issues,” he said.

You would think the story would die here, no it does not folks.  When a black man is put down and is slandered against, you know that Rev. Al Sharpton is not far behind.  The President of the civil rights group “National Action Network” said that Jackson’s remarks were “most unfortunate”.  Why?  Because everyone got to hear them?!?

“I hope people will remember the great work he’s done in this country as one assesses this last incident,” Sharpton said in a statement.

Sharpton said people “must be careful not to segregate Sen. Obama and impose some litmus test that is unfair and unproductive.”

“We must be very clear that Sen. Obama … is running for president for all Americans, not just African-Americans — which is why most Americans have embraced his campaign,” Sharpton said.

I have to admit that I was most pleased by Sharpton’s comments here.  We should look at Obama and understand that he is running for President of the United States.  He will represent every American out there, not just a select few.  Now I have been asked who I am voting for and that answer is simple.  Me.  Reinhold ‘08

Just so you know, this is not the first time that Jackson has been critical of Obama.  Last fall, he was critical of Obama’s reaction to the severe charges filed against six black students in the beating of a white student in Jena, Louisiana, a racially charged case that sparked a national outcry.

Jackson accused Obama of “acting like he’s white,” according to a South Carolina newspaper that cited a speech by Jackson at the historically black Benedict College in Columbia.

“If I were a candidate, I’d be all over Jena,” Jackson said, according to the The State newspaper. “Jena is a defining moment, just like Selma [Alabama] was a defining moment.”

All I can say is, “wow”.

Okay, now that the black on black is spoken for, what in the world could I be referring to when I say crazy cracker.  Come on now people, you know what cracker I am referring to…Ralph Nader.  This crazy cracker is running as an independent again.  Now he has made some pretty strong comments about Obama as well.  Now truthfully, if it came down to it, I think Obama could whoop Nader’s ass in the cage…of course I also think that Hillary could whoop his ass as well.  Sorry, let’s move on to Nader World now.

Nearly two weeks ago, Ralph Nader — who is running his own presidential campaign as an independent — accused Obama of attempting to “talk white” and appealing to “white guilt” in his quest for the White House.

“There’s only one thing different about Barack Obama when it comes to being a Democratic presidential candidate. He’s half African-American,” Nader told Colorado’s Rocky Mountain News in a June 26 story.

I am sorry but Nader is one crazy ass cracker folks.  Will someone please lock him in a room with Rev. Jesse Jackson and leave them both in that room until someone comes out with some nuts on a platter.

Seriously folks, when you vote this year.  Take everything into consideration and always follow your first instinct.  When someone seems to fake, they more than likely are.  When someone comes across as an ass (like me), they are.  Vote with your feelings and thoughts, not someone else’s.
