I am not a Terrorist!

I am sure many if not all of you have heard about the Tea Party movement.  For those that don’t know much about it or never heard of it I will summarize it by saying it is a libertarian movement trying desperately to convince the American people to do an easy comparison between 1776 America and 2011 America and notice the “subtle” differences.  This country that I love was run for the longest time under the law, The Constitution of the United States.  As George W. Bush once stated “It’s just a ‘G.D.’ piece of paper”.  He was right, it is just a piece of paper, but what makes it great is people believe in it and have died protecting the ideas and freedoms stated on that piece of paper. 

My point in this blog post is not to join in on the flame war between the Democrats and the Tea Party or to condone or condemn either party.  I simply want to say that before you call someone a Terrorist perhaps you should listen to them, know what it is they are doing and try to understand their position before you make yourself look like a wanker.

It is true that people like Alex Jones (infowars.net, prisonplanet.com) give libertarians bad names by being conspiracy theorist and spreading anti government propaganda that is so off the wall and crazy that even I’m not convinced.  You must realize that just because one grape is sour the whole bunch isn’t bad. 

I will say that I do relate to the Tea Party on the fact that I will stand by the Constitution before anything else and it is not just the police or the Military’s job to protect the Constitution, the responsibility falls to ALL American citizens.  Something this country has lost is pride in our heritage.  We should all be proud that we are independent from Britain, but also realize what caused that to happen in 1776 and turn an inquisitive eye towards the current US government and see if it’s time for a change BACK to what this country used to be.

Just an update

So it has been quite a while since I have blogged… I am a little sorry for that.  News updates include I have moved away, far away from my parents.  Although the freedoms are nice I do miss the home cooked meals, but grandma invites me over on the occasion for some southern cooking and it makes life great once again.

As many of you know I have a girlfriend (yay!)  who is having a birthday this Saturday, so if you see her or know her wish her a Happy Birthday.  I do want to talk about last night for a moment.  It was her birthday dinner because she works Friday and Saturday so Thursday was the closest I could make it.  The plan was romantic candle lit dinner with a meal I cooked, slow dancing the night away with a wonderful collaboration of songs, and diamonds were involved also.  Well that was the plan at least… what really happened was the oven screwed up, the chicken wasn’t thawed and she wanted Wendy’s.  So we had a candle lit fast food dinner.  And as screwy as that sounds it was absolutely the best time ever.  Also the first time she ever wanted to dance with me, normal I have to make her.  All in all it was an amazing evening and I can’t get over how lucky I am to be with her.

More headlines include shotguns and swords (yea I got a sword) and the horrible death of spiders.  None of this seems interesting enough to blog about so Ill move on.

My website business is getting a lot action, but not a lot of revenue.  Seems certain clients and a certain corporation likes to wait a few months after the work is done to pay.  But I’m not bitter…

Anyway I guess I should stop blogging and do some real work, may be hanging with the guys tonight, it’s the end of the summer for some of them and I want to make it rather memorable J
