Just Me Ranting

The Epler Report:

Well, the Oscars are on. Does anyone with half a brain really care? I am just happy that the fat slob Michael Moore won't be getting one. I do not see the point of watching a bunch of worthless, half-witted, loony actors bash Bush and think they are the authority on foreign policy. Clint Eastwood, however, rocks! Well, I digress....

I watched a little of "Meet the Press" today, and Russert had columnists from the NY Times on and they were discussing Iraq. William Saffire, who I kind of like, brought up some interesting information. The elections in Afghanistan and Iraq have resonated throughout the Middle East. Now we had an election in Palestine which may finally help pave the may for peace with Israel. We have Egypt where there may be the growth of the very first opposition political party in 50 years. Lebanon may have there own democratic election soon as well. Of course there is Iran which has a growing pro-democracy dissident movement fueled by a youthful population and the success in Iraq. That certainly has the mullahs shaking in their turbans. Even Saudi Arabia is considering allowing women to vote in hopes that it will be enough to quench the growing thirst for freedom and democracy across the deserts of the Middle East. Now I wonder why the mainstream media refuses to report these historic developments? Of course the floozy Maureen Dowd just kept insisting that Bush lied and people died for no reason and we outsourced torture, blah, blah, blah. I wish that dude would shut up....wait maybe that was a woman....?.... whatever.

Nothing angers me more than the left-wing nut jobs in this country blasting and disrespecting the military. For instance, a snot nose punk at the University of Massachusetts wrote an article in the campus newspapers disrespecting our troops. He stated that he rips off "Support Your Troops" magnets whenever he sees them on cars. He flatly declared that he does not support the troops and that you cannot support the troops and disagree with the Iraq War or politicians that agree with it. This worthless kid that has never even stepped foot in the real world thinks he knows more than anyone else. He has never had to struggle for anything in his life and he takes for granted the freedoms and advantages he has been given because of the brave Americans who serve their country. Soldiers fought, and spilled their blood, so that this child can abuse his freedom of speech to say something stupid like that. What a waste. But, then what do you expect from the People's Republic of Massachusetts.

A few words for Ward Churchill.... Seek mental help! You are a megalomaniac, a psychopath, and all around slime ball (not to mention pathological liar)...... If you do not remember who this loser is, he is the Colorado professor that compared 9-11 victims to Nazis. Put that scumbag in a room full of 9-11 victim family members and let him rant (no cameras in the room) lets see if he walks out of that one smiling.

All and all I must say I am in a good mood despite the crumbling of American society due to the constant assault from the left waged by the ACLU. They and other groups continue to undermine our war efforts, national security, and law enforcement while pushing their socialist agendas and trying to destroy Christianity. Of course the goal of the ACLU from the beginning was communism

When will the media do its job? We need an independent media watchdog to look out for the American people. Instead we have a heavy liberal media bias putting themselves directly into the Democrats’ pockets while furthering their own social agendas. Of course all the while you have both parties fooling the "sheeple" of the country and pulling the wool over their eyes. We need a viable third party to challenge the status quo in Washington and force them to deal with the obvious responsibilities they should be handling but aren't, such as SECURE THE BORDERS! We need to protect our country and preserve our culture or this nation will fall.

Please take a look at the Fair Tax Plan. I have a link to FairTax.org, just click on "more links". It is a great idea that would benefit everyone. It eliminates payroll taxes and replaces it with a national retail sales tax of less than 20%. You keep 100% of your paycheck, no taxes taken out at all. Prices would go down because businesses would no longer have to pay income taxes or file mountains of paperwork. Jobs would be created as companies would invest in America. We would become the greatest place in the world to do business because companies would have no income taxes to pay. Illegal immigrants would be paying taxes every time they bought groceries. There are so many positive aspects to this plan, I cannot do it justice. This idea has been formulated over the past 20 or so years and every major economist has said it would create substantial growth in the economy. This is a voluntary tax where the more you buy the more you pay in taxes, so the poorest of families would benefit the most as they would receive all the pay they earn and get a monthly rebate for basic necessities of life, as would everyone. The IRS, the largest bureaucratic monster in government would be eliminated. Anyway, I know this is boring so I will just drop it for now. All I ask is that you folks learn some more about it and consider it. It will only become a reality if a ground swell of support appears from the people that forces power hungry politicians to finally listen to their constituents.

Bush can't do anything right. First they complained he was insensitive and "too much of a cowboy". Now they are complaining he was not tough enough with Putin and Russia over the sale of nuclear fuel to Iran. Why can't they make up their minds?

We need to start paying attention in our hemisphere. Hugo Chavez and his cronies are gearing up. He wants to create a "Bolivian Army" to counter "American Imperialism". He is supporting communist factions throughout Latin America and we better start looking south for trouble because the terrorists down there still have not handed over all those shoulder fired anti-aircraft missiles. It may not be as scary as Iran with nukes, but tell that to Americans in a commercial liner that may get hit with one of those missiles.

Wow, this rant got a little out of hand. I better get some rest and simmer down for a while. I hope it was as good for you as it was for me.
