Obama And Vindication

by in Political Beefs | 2,862 views | Reading Time 3:20

As I sit here today, less than 24 hours from casting my vote in our Presidential election tomorrow, I have become apathetic. I sit here and wonder how so many of our citizens can be led so blindly as if promised treasures on earth for their vote. I am ashamed of our political process and […]

Here we are, less than a few days until we know who our next President will be. Excitement, tension, nervousness, and general anxiety may be filling your next few days depending on how involved you are with politics and the government future of our country. If you’re an Obama supporter, I would imagine you are […]

With the Presidential election coming up next Tuesday, I wanted to give a rundown of how I decide my choice. Your decision tree may be very different than mine, but all in all, the factors below are the basic ingredients for every voter when finally deciding who to cast your vote for. In no particular […]

Endorsements

Two weeks away from the Presidential election, I figured it was time for me to announce my candidate’s endorsement. Let the record show that I’m not endorsing anyone. However, since I believe that if you don’t exercise your right to vote, you don’t have any say or right to argue how things are being done […]

Outside The Box

by in Everyday Nonsense | 1,856 views | Reading Time 3:23

Given our current economic downturn and with little hope for a quick fix to our financial market issues, let’s spend some time thinking completely outside the box. Now, this is all hypothetical and includes some political underpinnings of some “not so great” ideologies, but go with me on this short journey and let’s hear what […]

Voter Age

by in Everyday Nonsense | 2,061 views | Reading Time 2:59

How old do you think people should be to possess the right to vote? Do you think our current age requirement of 18 is valid and rational? Do you think it should be reserved for older, more experienced individuals? How about even younger? Voting carries with it a lot of responsibility. Should someone 16 be […]

Polar Opposites

Do you like to think that you are a pretty reasonable individual? Do you view other people as rational individuals who are capable of sifting through facts and potential results while on their way to formulating an opinion or decision? For the most part, everyone attempts to generate an educated decision, guess, or stance given […]

Hollywood Politicians

How often do you hear about A-List Hollywood insiders being affiliated with our political process and parties? Personally, I sat in near hyperventilating anticipation for weeks and maybe even months before Oprah decided who she was going to sponsor… wait, I mean endorse. Similarly, I had to answer all of the polling phone calls asking […]

Tax Man Cometh

Joe Biden, our potential future Vice President, turned up in the news again with another statement worthy of mention. As I wrote in a previous article, Second Rate Choice, Biden has been largely ignored by the media since the arrival, and associated media vacuum, of Sarah Palin. However, as in that article, Biden seems to […]

Second Rate Choice

by in Political Beefs | 2,349 views | Reading Time 3:50

Over the last few days, Barack Obama’s running mate Joe Biden appears to have been buried by the media. Since the Democratic National Convention, Biden hasn’t been quite the media darling and his appearances have been very limited. Of course John McCain’s pick of Sarah Palin as his Vice Presidential choice has thrown the entire […]
