Hope
I know I'm way behind. March then April came and went with no posts but between the weather and the political climate I doubt anybody wanted to hear from me anyway!
I saw a sticker in the window of a car the other day which has prompted a lot of thought on my part. An artsy portrait of one Barack Hussein Obama with the bold letters HOPE below. Once I got back in my lane and called for an ambulance (I'm not heartless you know!) I began to consider if Barack Obama might mean HOPE to me to. I was surprised to find that in fact I could enter in to this popular movement. For instance, I hope Barack can produce a birth certificate at some point. It would be nice to know that he had atleast one qualification to be President! I hope the paperwork I filled out when I legally purchased my firearms has been lost. I hope Democrats particularly those in politics learn how to pay taxes because those of us who still do are really feeling the extra weight. I hope terrorists decide Barack's on their side and leave us alone. I hope Al Gore gets hit by a truck (actually that is just one name on a very long list). I hope Nancy Pelosi gets to go on trial right beside the people she's condemning over water boarding (after all she was sitting beside them at the briefing it's only fair right?!) I hope Alan Specter gets slaughtered in the next election even if the candidate is a democrat. In fact I hope that the American people wake up to what our constitution really says about the REPUBLIC (democracies are famous for their suicidal tendencies) that we live in and recall the original penalties for what's being done to us. I hope people figure out that this leftist movement is an elitist movement and it is about oppression of opposing ideas and ideals not about freedom. I hope everybody pauses when they hear about "change" and consider if it really is for the better. I hope the people in Europe were temporarily deaf when our own President had his little anti American tirade. I hope we don't need to defend this country against foreign super powers in the next decade because the damage this administration is already doing to our military (the only thing we really needed a Federal government for in the first place) will take at least that long to fix. I hope we can all learn to live on a lot less as the bill for the financial bailouts is going to be a whole lot more expensive than the crisis ever dreamed of being. I hope Americans will have removed their heads from the sand by the time these four years are up. I hope that in twenty years when people look back and say "What were we thinking?!", that we can all still do it as Americans with our freedoms in tact. I hope that people realize that hope never did a single solitary thing but there has been great forward strides made by those who got off their dead rear and did something! I hope that I never get sick because when the government gets done fixing health care sick is not going to be a good option. I could go on all night but to the person in the car with the sticker, I hope your doctor can adjust that medication and get your head squared away!

A $50 Lesson:
I recently asked my friends' little girl what she wanted to be when she grows up. She said she wanted to be President some day. Both of her parents, liberal Democrats, were standing there, so I asked her, 'If you were President what would be the first thing you would do?' She replied, 'I'd give food and houses to all the homeless people.' Her parents beamed. 'Wow...what a worthy goal.' I told her, 'But you don't have to wait until you're President to do that. You can come over to my house and mow the lawn,pull weeds, and sweep my yard, and I'll pay you $50. Then I'll take you over to the grocery store where the homeless guy hangs out, and you can give him the $50 to use toward food and a new house.' She thought that over for a few seconds, then she looked me straight in the eye and asked, 'Why doesn't the homeless guy come over and do the work, and you can just pay him the $50?' I said, 'Welcome to the Republican Party.' Her parents still aren't speaking to me.
