Thoughts on Gay Marriage



Jim Obergefell, 'accidental activist' says he was glad to 'help love win'

Divorce, infidelity, and the "ME" generation have much more to do with the threat to traditional marriage than gay people marrying.

Everyone has someone in their extended family or circle who is gay. If you say no then you are in denial or lying to yourself. Shouldn't gay people have the same right to happiness that everyone else does ?? Shouldn't Mr Obergefell's partner be allowed to have the same benefits as any other spouse of 21 years ??

I challange anyone that is against gay marriage (which I honestly in my ignorance was too years ago), to go make friends with some gay couples and I guarantee your mind on the issue will change. You will realize that their being married has absolutely nothing to do with the strength of your marriage or the sanctity of marriage in general.

"Fixing" Social Security

 
I could fix Social Security in 5 minutes with just 2 simple changes. First, the money that it collects MUST be invested and second only people who PAID into Social Security will receive it.
Right now the "Trust Fund" is a drawer of IOUs that are US Treasury bills which means that there is NO trust fund !! The US government took the surplus for decades and replaced the money with worthless US T-Bills. So, where is that money going to come from ?? By the way the '$19 trillion' federal debt does NOT include either this liability OR government pensions. When that is added in, the Federal debt is
truly well over $100 trillion and there is NO WAY to ever pay that, but that's another discussion.

Next, millions upon millions of people are collecting Social Security that never paid a dime into it. Immigrate to the US at 67, here's a Social Security check. Also SSI is massive where alcoholics and drug addicts who have never paid a dime into Social Security get a check.
I'm not hard hearted and you could move these people onto Welfare but if you did those 2 things, Social Security would still function. 
 
Instead what will happen is the politicians will keep "kicking the can down the road" until it goes almost broke and then they will raise the retirement age to 70 and most people who paid the most into it won't get it and it will turn into a very expensive welfare system.

Thoughts on "Death Panels"

There have been many stories lately about doctors recommending hospice to terminal patients and so called "death panels". Here are my thoughts on this:

Our culture has a serious problem where no one wants to admit that they are mortal and we all have an appointment with the Grim Reaper someday. People think that modern medicine and doctors have a magic wand that they can use to magically heal them and sadly there are some conditions that are terminal no matter what they do.
This is especially true of those with cancer. I have seen family members who were gonna fight it to the end and with the chemo they suffered horribly and died anyway in great pain. Meanwhile I have seen others who after talking to their doctors and researching their options, went into hospice and they were able to say goodbye to everyone and they were full of pain killers and didn't suffer too much.
It amazes me that people will put their loved ones through horrible torment and suffering and never would do the same thing to a beloved pet !! In my opinion, everyone needs to face reality when they have a terminal medical condition and choose to die with dignity.

My How the U.S. Supreme Court has Fallen



U.S. Supreme Court Legalizes Gay Marriage 

Supreme Court Upholds Housing Claims 

Supreme Court Upholds Obamacare 


What bothers me is that the Supreme Court members are acting like politicians and not as they should which is deciding whether laws are constitutional or not. Housing, Gay Marriage, and Health care are NOT Federal issues per the Constitution, at best those issues should be left to the States. Regarding Gay Marriage the ONLY Federal issue should be if California has Gay Marriage but Ohio does not, should Ohio have to recognize the marriage (reciprocity as defined by the Constitution). The U.S. Constitution really IS dead, we live in a fascist country (by definition the merger of state and corporate power) where the rule of law only applies to those without money or influence. It's a sad day for this country.

My Thoughts on the Confederate Flag

My thoughts on the Confederate Flag and Symbols:
I believe that our history is important and should be remembered in an HISTORICAL CONTEXT. For example, that flag should fly at Confederate veteran's cemeteries and Civil War museums. It should also be flown during Civil War re-enactments.

It should NOT be part of a current state flag, be flown in your yard to piss people off, or be a patch on your jacket or on top of your car (I loved the Dukes of Hazzard too as a kid).

Still, why is this conversation happening NOW over the actions of a lunatic ??

Pope Francis is a HUGE Hypocrite

Pope Francis is such a hypocrite who says that guns are evil and people who own guns aren't really Christian while he is surrounded by ARMED security and ARMED Swiss Guards.
My response is Jesus' own words in Luke 22:36:
"Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one."
I guess that Jesus saying to buy weapons to the Apostles to defend themselves makes him not a Christian either.

Oh and he was critical of the Allies in WW2 not stopping the Holocaust says the Pope of the Vatican whose predecessor Pius XII and his pals formed "ratlines" that spirited fine individuals such as Adolf Eichmann, Dr Josef Mengele, better known as Auschwitz's 'Angel of Death', Franz Stangl, commandant of the Treblinka extermination camp and many others from justice in Europe to comfy new lives in South America. Pope Francis what is the saying about people who live in glass houses ??

BTW, I'm the furthest thing from a Catholic basher rather I cannot stand hypocrisy in any form--it really ticks me off !!

Just Shameful

These scum "protested" against supposedly racism by walking on the flag for 3 days until a female veteran tried to stop them and she was arrested. It disgusts me that this happened at MY college of which I'm a double graduate (Bachelors and Masters). I know all about the 1st Amendment but why did all of the other students watch this for 3 days and do nothing ?? I'll guarantee you that I'd have gone to jail for assault if I'd seen that when I was a student and the "protesters" would have been in the hospital getting my foot out of their butts.

"Peace Deals"

For Those who think that Obama's Iran "Peace Deal" will lead to peace, please watch this video of a World leader who also thought that a "Peace Deal" would bring a lasting peace.

What's sad is that we now know that if the British and French had stood up to Hitler, there was a bigger group than in 1944 in Germany that wanted to overthrow the Nazis. The Munich Agreement emboldened and empowered Hitler and weakened his opponents. A year later, he attacked Poland because thanks to Munich he thought that the British and French would roll over again !!! I really fear this agreement because it will weaken the Ayatolla's opponents in Iran and embolden them LEADING to War. Time will tell and I pray that I'm wrong but History indicates I'm right.
