Why These Are Guys Trippin’

Good evening everone, I hope all is well out there.  I was just watching the local news and a story just made me scratch my head.  It seems that the President will be sepaking to the nation’s school kids on Tuesday talking about education and for some reason there is a disagreement about that.  I just don’t understand why these people are trippin’.  I just don’t have a clue.

As you guys know I stay in Dallas, Tx. and no I’m not a Republican at all, but this is the interesting thing to me.  I would love to listen to Rick Perry or Kay Bailey Hutchinson give speach on anything.  I think meeting or having the opportunity to see a politician is a great honor.  I mean if Ronald Reagan would have done that for us when I was in high school I would have loved to have that opportunity.  However, these guys are just plain trippin’ over nothing.

I wish that people would just get over the fact that he is doing some things differently.  I don’t agree with some of the things that he is doing, but having a President speak to school kids and it is only about the importance of education, c’mon now.  What are some of you guys smoking.  Are you still mad about the election.  Look its over, you let Palin come in and she screwed it up, get another candidate, better luck next time.  However depriving school children a speech that is directed at them is a low blow. 

Anyway, that’s all C-YA next time.

What Healthcare Problem?

Hello everyone, I hope everyone is having a wonderful day.  As for me and my family we have had a great one in the hospital.  My wife had to have a day surgery this morning.  The thing that real struck me was that for all of the great insurance that I have my out of pocket expense is still close the 2,000 dollars.  Luckily, I can and will manage the bill because my wife is dear to me and I do want her to live a long time.  However, it did make me wonder.

The situation with my wife developed over a time span of over two years.  To make this story short she needed this provedure done.  Her doctor recommended it and she went to the local hospital to have this surgery done.  What was the first thing out of the hospital’s mouth.  It was the up front fee that we had to provide.  Now, technically I make a decent living, but with my wife unemployed for over 7 months and a 3 year old little girl that up front cost threw me for a loop.   What could I do, I did what everyobody elese would do in that situation with a job, ask for a payment plan.

As I was doing that a thought occurred to me what if we both were out of work, would the hospital give my wife the care she needed?  I mean without insurance in many places you can’t even walk into the front door.  So, that’s why I say, What healthcare problem?  Then I say the one we have when you cannot get insurance though your job and you have no money or better yet you are unemployed with no job or money, that’s your healthcare problem.

People want to trip on this being a socialistic objective fine you can have that opinion.  Nonetheless, if that is the case then let’s not talk about being a total democracy let’s practice it.  First, social security must go because is it not a program that would follow under the rules of socialism.  Next, if you really want to be fair just throw medicare out the window because it is truly under the same definition.  Hmm, I think you would not do that would you.   So, the next time you duck your head and say there is not a healthcare issue and that something drastic has to be done think about it before you open your BIG MOUTH.

It is better to Forgive, Vick

Hello everyone I’m back this week twice because of the Michael Vick situation in Philadelphia.  I too, was stunned thatthe Eagles signed the once “greatestweapon in football’, but I was upset because of my beloved Cowboys and the matchup problems they would have with them now.  That’s was my take on it, but there are those people out there who have made this an issue of once you do a crime you must pay for this for the rest  of your life.

Like I said, I’m a Cowboys fan and that Pre-season game with the Raiders made me sick to my stomach and then Vick signs with the Eagles.  I told my wife there goes the division.  However, imagine my surprise when people like the Eagle fans and PETA have responded in such a negative way.  I mean, did he not lose his 100 million dollar contract and if I remember correctly he got the worst sentence of all of the defendants in the dog-fighting case.  To make matters worse he is bankrupt.  I don’t know what else yon can do to the guy. 

First let me start with the great fans of Philadelphia, you guys truly are living up to your title as being the dumbest football fans in America.  You guys have recieved and early Christmas present in Vick and you don’t want him. You guys wine ad complain how you guys never win the Superbowl, how you need an extra something to win it all and your coach delivers, but you complain.  I truly don’t feel sorry for you when you play Dallas because that is one more weapon my beloved Cowboys will have to deal with.  I wish we had him I would personally shake his hand and welcome him here.

You guys must be stuck in “Rocky” mode if you think that just having the biggest heart wins all the time.  True that happens but more often than not havng superior talent does help the situation tremendously.  I mean this from the bottom of my Cowboy heart, shut the hell up!!!  You guys have everything  just enjoy the ride and pray for no injuries because it is looking like Philadephia will be very serious this year.

How can you guys not forgive anyone, the guys who booed Santa.  Oh and here is my personal favorite. Clapping when Michael Irvin had broke his neck you guys are so wonderful.  How in the hell are you guys judge and jury on conduct of an athelete.  You guys are all morons an the way you have responded to this signing proves it.  We all need to ask God for forgiveness for you dummies because if not you woould be in hell.  But I digress, with the stunts you guys have pulled you can forgive Vick and welcome him in the the city of “Brotherly Love” or is that just some cheap campaing slogan that is used up there.

Now for PETA, those animal lovers, you people are about to make me gag.  You got what you wanted when he went to jail he lost everything, but guess what are you guys human beings.  In the King James Version of the bibleI don’t remember anywhere in it that if you kill dogs you go to hell.  I just can’t remember that being in the 10 commandments.  Thou shall not kill dogs, hmm I must have missed that one.  However, that is not what really irks me.

We have people doing many things worse than he did and he gets forgiven.  In the NFL there is a football player who had a DUI and killed a woman, I don’t remember people protesting him when he came back to play football.  Now, I’m not saying that dogs are not living creatures, but damn give the protest a rest.  So what, you love animals if we ckecked your closet I bet you have done some things that most people would find unable to forgive.  He who is without sin shall cast the 1st stone and I have not seen that person yet.

So, you dumb Eagle fans and PETA idiots just remember, this is America where we are supposed to get a second chance. He did pay his debt to society a federal judge made sure of that.  He lost out on his 100 million dollar contract the NFL commissioner and his former team took care of that.  All we have left is the the man Michael Vick, footbal player.  He is not a superstar anymore he is a scrub.  He is not the man, he is the man sitting next to the man, sitting next to the man, sitting next to the man.  He is a fallen star who has crumbled.  If we are the Christians, we say we are forgiveness will be given to him and redemption will be granted.  That’s all for now, C-YA!!!

The Truth About Healthcare

Hello, everybody I have been watching the news and there seems to be a problem.  It seems that everyone wants to stand up and argue about this healthcare issue.  I mean people getting carried off by the police hootin’ and hollering like they are kids on a playground this is getting ridiculous.  So, let’s really look at this matter closely.

Good old American healthcare is a trip.  I mean even if you have insurance medical costs are getting out of hand.  I remember buying ashtma medicine a few years ago for nearly 30 dollars and it has jusmped to about 50 dollars with insurance.  My wife has diabetes and her medicine  keeps on going up.  I have great insurance at my job and it is getting out of hand for me in my household. 

So, yes I think healthcare needs to be changed up some.  Now, we have our current president talking about a sweeping reform, but how will it be funded?  What should we tax the rich, I hope not.  They are already taking a major hit under his administration and let’s be real just taxing them will not get the job done.  However, at least he does have a plan.  Let’s look at the opposition.

I hear much talk about this and that.  You know the plan is evil and older people will be cut out yadda, yadda, yadda, but where is an alternative plan?  Come on now any other time when one side has a plan the other side has an alternative in the wings to make it look like they care.  The opposition in this case has not even come up with this.  I think that they hope this will die, however, I don’t think that will happen on this one.

The truth is something does have to be done on this one issue.  Personally, I don’t care if the Presidend ha sthe solution or the opposition does just get the damn thing fixed.  All of this B.S. at these town hall meetings from both sides is just mandatory time wasting for me.  Just go to Washington and get this done.  I don’t think we can wait another 4 years for this to get fixed in this country.  Anyway, that’s it, C-YA!!!

Finally!!!

Hello, good people I know I have been away, but trips to Vegas will make you forget about things.  it took me two weeks to rest from that city. YIPEEE!!!!  it is going to take me a couple of years before I get the courage to go back.  Anyway, I’m back with my weekly opinions on whatever.

I want to talk about the first latino supreme court justice.  First I’m glad she got it over some objections to her filing the seat.  Hey  remember Justice Thomas and he had sexual harassement chares against him and he got in so why should she have been blocked.  Ms. Sotomayor is qualified and was appointed to her former position by President Bush when he was in office, he did not have a problem with her so what’s up?

People have to realize that this country is reall made up of minority groups now and the quicker people relaize it the better.  With a growing latino population in this country especially in states like Texas and California the rest of the United States is going to have to deal with it.  Personally, I think she will do fine and she will not be a yes woman, so good for her.

As for her opponents be careful how you attack because if it backfires you could sway they to the liberal side of politics and that really is not the best political stance either.  I wish her opponents would have talked to the guy in Texas and California before they opened their big mouths.  I think they actually alienated more people that make people side withthem. 

Anyway, that’s it gald to be back.  C-YA!!!!

Good evening everyone.  I just have a comment on someone I have enjyed laughing at for the last part of 2008.  This person seems like she wants to keep me rolling in 2009, as well.  That is the former Gov. of Alaska Mrs. Palin.

Now, I have not any idea why she quit her job and that is really her business, but she has done another dummy move.  Why out of the blue just quit.  I mean what gives up there is Alaska.  is ther something in the water I need to watch out for.

This poor delisional child is always trying to shoot from the hip.  Sounds familir don’t it.  Shooting from the hip like she did during the general election.  That may work in the great state of Alaska, but to the other 49 states we don’t deal with that to kindly.

I wish someone would pull her to the side and explain to her that the rest of the United States is not stupid.  If you have all of these allegations against you and they are false just fight it out the truth will clear you.  You run when you are GUILTY!!! 

I don’t know maybe its an Alaskan thing, to run like that.  Anyway just my opinion catch ya next time.!!!!

Who Should Pay for Healthcare?

Good evening everyone, how are you?  As I looked the paper today I read an article about Senate Democrats passing their version of Healthcare Reform whih had the wealthy paying for it.  Now as I was reading this artcle it made me think about fairness in our country.  Here is the reason why, because if this passes won’t everyone be eligible for healthcare and like the other benefits we enjoy in this country shouldn’t we all pitch in to pay for this.

I mean I’m not rich at all I work a normal Monday through Friday job, but I have enough sense to understand that is something we all need to pay for.  We tax the rich at the higher tax brackets continuously and for the rest of us not to pay some of the cost is an idea that does not reflect fairness in this country.  This bill to me is like social security we all need to chip in to make it work. 

The Democrats act like making everyone pay will scare off people.  Trust me we all know we need some type of Healthcare Reform in this country.  However, just making a small percentage of Americans pay for it is as Un-American as burning the Flag.  So, really think this through unp there in DC.

Anyway, that’s my opinion catch you next time, C-YA!!!

Republicans, Why Are You So Happy?

Hello, once again as I have looked at the news this week I saw the knucklehead of the Republican Party walk around with their chest stuck out over the Supreme Court nominee’s decision being overturned.  That really tripped me out because once again it does not seem to me that these guys get it.  True her decision on the firefighters needed to be changed, I agree.  However, in the eyes of the latino community they are looking more and more suspect by the day.

I understand her views are controversial, but have you guys ever though about the backlash you guys could receive in the polls come election time.   The President is really the only one who wins this battle because he wins if she gets into the Supreme Court and if she does not get confirmed he can point directly at you guys for her not getting the nomination.  I know you guys will say the court Supreme court voted it down, but us in the real world will still blame you for trying to smear her reputation.

Let’s see smear her and make her the face that latino’s will associate as a sacrificial lamb in their struggle.  On the streets, these guys are talking and they are not talking about voting with you on your next elections.  So, really why are you guys so happy?

If I were you I would re-evaluate you stances the method that worked in the Reagan years won’t work because of a couple of reasons.  The main one is that guess what minority groups as a who out number the majority race in this country.  If you don’t believe me check you stats they will agree with me.  The largest of the groups is the latino population that you keep making mad.  Try to win an election without them and see what would happen.  Oh I’m sorry, you did that’s one of the reason our current President won the election.

The next factor is even more simple, we are broke.  Most people these days can’t afford to be a Republican.  When Reagan was out there we were making money worrying about ourselves, now i is the complete opposite.   You wonder why, we might have a national healthcare system because the majority is now broke and we are tired.  We are just tired of everything that has happened and we can’t afford to go back to the Eighties.   However, here you guys go acting like nothing has changed.

You guys really need to WAKEUP!!!!!  Please do it quickly before you will only be relavent in a few less states come election time.  See you later.

The Truth about Healthcare

The truth about healthcare in America is simple.  It is not somethng that can be obtained bey everyone.  I know we are in the land of the brave and the free, but let’s admit it everyone can’t get it.  Now I know there is a segment of the country that says we should leave our system the way it is, my question to them is, Why?

Why should we leave this pitiful system the way it is when we have so many poor people out there without it.  We can help to save other countries but in our home nation we can’t save ourselves.  Please tell me the reason why a change it is not needed. 

I understand that we really may not be able to have medical benefits for everyone, but something has to be done.  It is a shame when in this, the greates country in the world people can actually die from not having the medical attention they deserve.  Can you imagine dying because you can’t afford to see a doctor, that’s crazy. 

Oh, and I know some guys will say they just need to get a job.  Hmm, let me see everyone is laying off now at a record rate.  The last time I checked if you muliply Zero times Zero you still get Zero.  So if there is not job you can’t medical and the way things are going now most companies simply are not able to afford to pay for their employees medical coverage, of course, my number one answer is that everyone is laying off people so where does that leave us.   So on one hand jobs are hard to find and on the other companies are not even offereing medical in some cases, then with people laying off at an alarming rate where is that job medical coverage again, I must have missed it in my calculation.    

The truth about health care is simle it has to be fixed.  I’m not saying the president is completely right, but something does need to be done to correct this problem and fast.
