Pet Peeves
Don’t you hate it when you ask someone a question and they give you 5-minutes of bullshit and never answer the damn question? It’s especially annoying when it’s a simple yes or no question.
Or…
When someone is telling you a story and it takes forever for them to get to the point of the story? Do I really need all the minutiae?
Health Care Revisited
The health care bill was voted into law after my last entry and as I thought would happen, a lot of people lost their freaking minds about it.
Why is everybody so surprised? Obama said from the time he declared his candidacy that his priority was to establish a health care reform bill. Then when various member of congress, Republican and Democratic, balked, he basically said kiss my skinny black ass and came up with his own plan. And I loved how when the bill was passed, Republicans said they would not cooperate with the president any longer. Are they kidding, they didn’t cooperate to begin with.
And I love how Sarah Palin put on her web page (or was it her twitter page) that it was time to RELOAD. Nice way to incite the uneducated redneck reactionary assholes to potential violence, yet step back and say that it’s a comment that was misconstrued. I do wonder though, who thought that statement up for her and how long it took them to explain to her that it could have a double meaning.
You know what I think really bothers people about the health care bill and the Obama presidency? The fact he’s black. Yes I think racism is at play. Not only that, but I really think that some of his more vociferous opponents & some of the more rabid TV/radio pundits REALLY want to use the n word when talking about Obama. So instead they attack him as maliciously as possible.
I also love it when I hear about these morons who contact their local congressperson and leave threatening messages. These morons obviously don’t realize that leaving a threatening message is against the law and can get you jail time. I’m sure the people who get arrested will pull the freedom of speech defense, but freedom of speech means saying things like you suck, or health care sucks not, “I hope you die” or “It only takes one bullet.”
Big Corporations SUCK!
I love it when a big company fires, over the course of a year, about 2000 people and claims it’s because of economic reasons. Especially when that company over the course of that time frame reports quarterly earnings of over $250-million dollars. Let me repeat that…the company reports earnings of over $250-million dollars a quarter. That’s over a BILLION dollars a year in profit and it’s not fucking enough. No wonder this country is near bankruptcy.
That’s all for now. Not the most entertaining entry I’ve ever written, but hey, Barry Bonds didn’t hit a home run every time up either.
