Cola Wars

I am too young to remember the real Cola Wars, but I learned there was a different one yesterday. Apparently Coca-Cola is all that is served at the Democratic National Convention. I like Coke, but I guess I have to switch to Pepsi so I don't drink a socialist potion of indoctrination. Here's what perplexes me:

Coke cans are red and Pepsi cans are blue. Red is Republican and Blue is Democrat and yet the opposite is true for softdrinks. Should they change the color of their cans to correspond to the majority of their drinkers? I don't know, I just have to drink Coke less often now. Pepsi still doesn't as good to me though.

Nationalizing gone too far


We need to laugh sometimes.

Fed up

I love phrases with multiple meanings. I am fed up with the Federal Government. They are out of control with our money, not to mention my grandchildren's money. Congress does what it pleases and complains when real questions are asked of them (Barney Frank, President Obama). I like that kid who questioned Barney Frank; that took guts, asking serious question to him. He was so flustered, he never actually answered how responsible he was for the economic mess we're in.

Obama has some nerve saying we're arrogant. In France! How dare you. America has protected Europe since World War I, we pay for the great majority of the UN's budget, we were the economic stability of the world before we changed to the debt standard (from the gold standard, starting to like William Jennings Bryan right now?), we are the symbol of freedom in the world. If anything we're just proud. Americans have a lot to be proud of and I cannot believe the President thinks it is fine to call us arrogant, and not even to our faces in America.

I think many can agree with this statement: I am fed up with the government and the world hating us at the same time they are takig our funding. We can't afford it and if you don't like us, don't take the money, or the troops, or the support. We'll leave you alone, we'll be isolated again. Last time that happened, Europe was taken over by a fascist dictator; I don't believe they want that again. Also, take some control of your government. We are trying because we are sick of this spending from both sides. Socialism is wrong and it has never worked. Not only that, it is lazy. "Let the government take care of the problems" is the wrong attitude for anyone especially Americans to take in the world. America was founded on a government for the people, by the people, and of the people. Let us not disappoint all those men and women who fought to make this wonderful nation a reality.
