Some Recent Stats

630,000 weekly Jobless Claims(people drawing compensation from the government)

The only two places that are still hiring:

Healthcare: 14,000 new jobs and the Federal Government: 7000 new jobs - surprised?

    and some may argue that they will soon be one and the same.

VSTheMan Live Moments 2.1 -- NEW QUOTE, NEW PICTURE, and A NEW BLOG TO FOLLOW

Well, I am now active again.  BUT, it has gotten much more interesting.  

I have recently updated to VSTheMan Live Moments 2.1.  This program allows me to update wirelessly to the blog, at any and all "spurs" of the moment.  

Thankfully, and sometimes very unthankfully I constantly have ideas for posts; until 6 minutes later, when my food comes/class is over or real life begins.

But to all of our satisfaction, I will now be able to give you live status on how TheMAN is holding you down, and so on, and on, and on.............

**side note - I have the feeling the percentage of "Rants" will be in the high 90's during the hours of 11a-5p (while listening to some of my professors) or any and all times that the Keith Olbermann Show is on.  SO keep up!!

Humor....... with a hint of Depression :)

Well I recently received an email full of pictures from numerous Tea Parties and thought I would pull 3 of my favorites.  As I'm sure you will notice; they start off funny, and just as you've had time to laugh a hint of depression/"upsetness" creeps in. :)  

You can click on the  "Stimulus Flow Chart" to make it bigger.

Well, now that I see this fool Specters face literally pasted all over MSNBC I'm actually becoming glad that we lost him.

If he thinks the Republican Party is too far right now, then he will be nothing but deadweight when we revert to our original principles.

I appreciate him at least confirming that he's spineless and quit wasting a spot on the team. :) 

It'd Be On Like Donkey Kong

Well I'm quite late and the second to "shout out" to the article.  But Just in case there's someone who reads my blog and not The Fixed Pie heres a link to something that will literally infuriate you.  

THEFIXEDPIE

and i'll be getting a new post up soon as humanly possible.  What can i say, I havent had nearly the "recliner time" I've needed lately. 

Hallelujah to HIGHER EDUCATION

Who Is The Left? - part 1

This is the first of many posts that I will have periodically, attempting to define who the left is and what they represent.

WHO IS THE LEFT: PART 1: PATRIOT ACT

This is certainly something I have always wondered, and seemed quite backwards to me.

The Left has always been against the Patriot Act.  Giving numerous reasons why it is a breach of standard privacy rights.  BUT these are the same people, who want to know EVERYTHING about wellll...... everything.  How much money you make, where you keep your money, how much taxes you pay, where you drive, how much you drive, at what speed you drive, how many guns you own, what school you go to, who teaches your kid about sex, what your kid gets taught about sex, and what Union vote you cast.  The list goes on and on.  

BUT, HOLD ON, they are interested in personal PRIVACY.

I think some of us are still in the mindset that the Left is the old school anti-establishment crazy's that they used to be.  The is exactly incorrect. THEY ARE THE ESTABLISHMENT.  

The left does not evolve to the issues or the circumstances.  They Evolve to oppose.  

The party base did not hate the patriot act because it aligned with any of their other values. They hated the patriot act because the current administration liked it.  

Macho-sauce goes on a big rant about this.  At first his crazy style is a bit annoying, but he makes REALLY good points.  Stick it out through the whole video, hes real good and rips Unions a new one.

Ridiculous Item of the Day

Political correctness is taking a bite out of the way European Parliament members can address each other.

The European Union is banning terms such as "Miss" and "Mrs." because they might offend female members. The guidelines are issued in a new gender-neutral language pamphlet that orders politicians to address female members by their names with no reference to marital status. Other rules insist words such as "sportsmen," "statesmen," and "man-made" are forbidden.

COMING TO AN AMERICA NEAR YOU!! :)
