Pesident Obama and the Nobel Peace Prize...

Yes, he won the prize,so what,it was accepted and the people of most of America think it's a wonderful thing. Why do the rightwing wingnuts think it's not deserved? Alfred Nobel invented dynamite and several other explosives because he was a manufacturerer of armaments. He never expexted that it would eventually lead to his death (which it did), so in his will he left a grand amount of money for the developement of a prize to be awarded to the deserving candidates from around the world in all the sciences and one in peace for the person who set forth a show and plan to change the world for the better without the violence...wow what a concept.

Now onto my rant...The fact that many rightwingnuts think that it is an award udeserved are spouting supidity and nonsence. This award is given by a group that looks at what a leader (or other person) does to ensure that peace can be achieved without the use of violence, hell I am all in favor of that, and works to ensure that it will happen. So does The President deserve it?
Yes for if no other reason then that he has worked hard to show that negotiation is far more productive than death!

What is wrong with people that have "air time" and are allowed to spout anti-America rhetoric to the public, unwatched and uncontrolled? What is wrong with the public that is willing to deafly listen to that rhetoric and not get angry that their President is being slandered to the nation? Why weren't they this pissed off whem the shrub was in charge and destroyed our economy and our treasury to fund an illegal and immoral war and steal millions from unmetered oid wells in Iraq, and some think he was a saint?

Limbaugh, Hannity, Beck, Savage, and O'Ripley(Believe it or not), spout their insidious rants all about insighting people to violence, and unfortunately many of the deluded minority not only listen but seem to plan and plot against the President and the United States and is true patriots.
This type of behavior is not only unacceptable in this country , but it also borders on treason...but damn it does sell ratings don't it? What the hell happened to honest journalism in the free nation we call home?

President Obama has done much of all he promised to do and yes he has a great deal of work left to do, but for chrissakes people, he hasn't been in office even a year yet, any employee has a period of time given to show what he is made of , and not one of the wingnuts has given him even five minutes to change that disaster the last administration left us. I would never want that mans job for anything , he has a bazillion things on his plate and no time to even eat it. Let's stand up and put on our big person pants and give him some time to show us his metal. In fact maybe it's time we took a closer look at the idiot blue dogs that seem to like money more that their constituents, or maybe the rethuglicans who seem unable to find the forest for the trees. There is a new vote coming soon kids and it time we look at what our representatives are and are not doing.

Oh, by the way kids, don't let them tell you that health care is not a right, as I have said before no American should be refused, denied, or not given the right to quality healthcare for any reason. As I have written before, the constitution states that it was written in part for the "general welfare " of the people. That has far reaching implications that need to be addressed.

Oh and not as an afterthought, let us never forget that the LGBT community was instramental in getting our President elected and truly deserve the rights that they are asking for. All people have basic human rights and no one can be denied them for reasons that only affect their sensibilities. C'mon folks lets all wake up and realize that this "grand experiment " does work and it's up to us to make sure it does.

End of rant .

Now for some humor, or at least my feeble attempt at it...

A guy falls asleep on his boat for several hour and gets a horrible sunburn. He goes to the hospital, and is admitted promptly after being diagnosed with second degree burns. With his skin starting to blister, and seeing the severe pain he is in, the doctor orders an IV with saline, electrolytes, a sedative, and a Viagra pill every four hours.
The nurse, who is rather astounded asks, "What good will the Viagra do him, doctor?"
The doctor replies," It'll keep the sheets off his legs."

Peace, Love, and Light all,

I can't really say it's plagerized, but it's close...

With a hat tip and a free beer to whoever wrote originally,I offer this tidbit thanx to my dear friend Rose...

So I was telling my kids the other day that I did not want to be kept alive by a machine and have to take liquid nourishment, so they came over and unplugged my computer and threw away my beer...they can be such assholes...!

On another note...Why can't the congress get it through their collective heads that people really do want a public option. I mean come on idiots we hired you to vote for us not yourselves, quit taking all the lobby money and vote the way your constituents want, what are you?, stuck on stupid? Grow a spine and a sac and we might even think about reelecting you...or NOT!

End of rant ...Peace, love , and light.
