crazy religion

ok, before i get going here...i dont mean to offend anyone. this is strictly my opinion on this topic and in no way do i think my opinion means more than "yours".

soo, radical religion is so crazy. americans only think in terms of "their" god. so many christians and catholics take the tradition and faith over fact and science. its so strange that in a society thats advancing so fast, we have religion to prevent us from really pushing our limits. our president is a religious man, and he invites that religion into his politics. because g.w. bush's faith says abortion is wrong, millions of people that are not of that faith will ultimately suffer. he is supposed to be a president "of the people". that is why religion and politics are supposed to be separate.

okay, so im not even finished here. we should talk about...life. somewhere it always seems to get lost in the news, but literally, 100's of people are getting killed in iraq. everyday. the united states is destroying a country. i know suddam hussein was a bad guy. but he had his country under control, and at least that tension seemed to keep that part of the world in order (for the most part). now we have gone into a region and completely took away any power iraq did have, and now its basically the united states as irans new neighbor. what if iran invaded mexico and set up a major base of operation? i bet the united states would be pissed.

that said, isnt it weird that the president is so steadfast on backing an obvious failed situation? does anyone really believe this iraq government is ever going to have any power over a chaotic country? george bush cant be that optimistic or blind. why the hell does he want to stay in iraq? hmm, maybe so under iraqs new "no choice but to do whatever america wants" leadership, they have to let the american military stay with a heavy presence, whether they like it or not.

sort of like america testing iran and asking: "so what are you gonna do about it?"


hmmm...i have lots more on this topic, but i think ill get back to it at a later date. maybe with the time, a re-evaluation could change my view about it all. probably not though.

iran

so in the news there are reports of iran bombing villages in northern iraq. what happens if iran where to send a military into iraq? its not like iraq has a real army, and the one they do have is barely holding itself together. iraqs military force is the united states. who has the responsibility of defending iraq? with hundreds of billions of our tax money invested in the war there is no way the united states wont flex its muscle. if iran goes into iraq we will no longer be in a war of choice. its a war of necessity if iran is purposely blowing things up near american "peace keeping" soldiers. maybe thats the whole point of this war. i think the united states is picking a fight. war! war! war!

for profit.

these conservatives, republicans, and "others" (greed mongers) that encourage privatizing our "public" education and instead boost "for profit" charter school trip me out. why do they like to compare what we should be doing to places like "south korea" and "china", and suggest that somehow they have it right on education, and that we should follow the lead. they actually make a case that a class of 100 kids is better than a class of 30, just as long as we pay the teachers more money and invest in a little more training. since when does the unites states strive to be like south korea, or china? no offense to south korea, but for the benefit of making something more profitable, these guys will kick any sense of american pride out the window. whatever happened to patriotism? when did money pass pride as something to admire? they back up their ideas with skewed facts, polls, surveys, etc., and in a lot of instances, just plain lies. the rea...

this blog sort of jumps around, but i like most of its content...

i think as the presidential race unfolds its becoming clear that the race divide in this country is still very present. there is also a great divide in this country when it comes to who has money and who does not. the rich people seem to think all is well with our economy and we are still a strong nation. maybe for those with a couple million in the bank, it probably would be hard to understand the basic needs of the everyday american. i feel that john mccain is a guy that represents so many things that are wrong with our country right now. he is rich, old, son of a military big wig, a former military big wig himself, and white. we is the sort of guy that owns 7 homes and has $100 million in the bank, but wants to run a country where only about 2% of the population can even begin to relate to his way of living. and also a country that is feeling very pinched in the wallet, due in large part to his party’s hot streak of bad economic policies. what does john mccain really have to offer u...
