The Sinister Moose

Being from a small town in Eastern Kentucky, I originally thought I would enjoy life in Corbin Kentucky. After more than 5 years in this town, I have to admit that I was mistaken. I want to point out that I'm not angry, and I'm not looking to move out of Corbin, but I can't help but point out a few things that have me confused, annoyed and a little bewildered.

If you're not outraged, you're not paying attention.

The above line is one of my favorite bumper stickers. Although I would never put a bumper sticker on my car, I really like that statement.

It's all fine and good to talk about healthcare reform. It's all fine and good to say you want to help people, but there are a couple of things I think that need to be addressed, before we try to fix the economy.

Let me make perfectly clear to anyone reading this, I don't like what's going on in Washington DC. I'm not playing partisan politics, because I think our "two party" political system is a bullshit scam.

Point One:

The constitution clearly states that the President will hold only that position, and no other. Unfortunately the Constitutional Law Professor/President who wore to uphold the Constitution of the United States, conveniently missed that part, because he is also now heading the United Nations Security Council as chairman. This is not just illegal, but it is high treason.

Last night, since we were both in Lexington at the same time, the wife and I decided to have dinner.

My day had already been stressful, and full of insipid questions from stupid computers.

My wife arrived before I did, and went ahead and got a table.

The waiter came to the table and asked what I would like to drink. "Sweet tea, no lemon" I said and made  point of stressing the no lemon part.

After about 10 minutes, our drinks arrived.

I'll probably make a few folks angry with what I'm about to say, but you should know the facts before just sending money because you feel sorry for the earthquake victims. I'm not saying you shouldn't help, just make sure you know where your donation goes.
