The Big Blank Check

How many times does the "evil-corrupt-teachers' unions" have to threaten and scare and fear monger the public into falling for their corrupt self-serving agenda?  These "public thieves" use and abuse, "children" in every way shape and form to their own self-serving interests.  They always glibly say "for the children" to use as any excuse for their self-serving thievery.  These "teachers' unions" really "couldn't care less about the children."  For too many years they have used this lame excuse. The unions' like to always scream and holler about "special interests," when by their actions and behavior that is all they are about.  These corrupt unions are all about perpetuating their own existence, they're also the biggest "special interests" there is, bankrupting the state, coddle and protect the useless and incompetent morons in their own ranks who could not survive in the "real world."  I have stated before and have it on good authority that besides all the bonds, earmarks, lottery monies we were induced into voting for that was suppose to take care of education funding, we could write and "Open Ended Check," a Blank Check to the school and say "you fill out the amount, put as many Bazillion, Gazillion, Quintillion zeros on this check, and the teachers' union would still say "IT'S NOT ENOUGH!"  When is the public going to realize that no amount of money thrown down the toilet of "education funding" will make any difference?  It wasn't long ago that schools were spending a few hundred dollars per student and we had excellence in education.  Now we are spending untold thousands per student and have one of the worst educational systems in the world!  Again, it's time that we used Nancy Reagan's watch word and tell the corrupt teacher's union "We Just Say No."  We must as a society just face the simple fact that we can't afford the corrupt union control that is killing our country.

Unions, Are They Relevant Anymore?

There may have been a time in American history when unions were revelant, but that time has long passed.  We as American workers are appreciative of the eight hour work day, and overtime pay, but the unions have out-lived their usefulness.  Unions, the BIG BLOOD-SUCKER of any innovation and the "enemy of freedom," especially with this misnomer of a fair voting rights act, that is anything but!  If we as American workers can't vote in private to accept or reject union representation without intimidation of the ugly union thugs, then we have lost all rights of a secret ballot, and just what that means.  The unions are so afraid of a workers' right to privacy, they are using any and all intimidation and misleading propaganda to further their corrupt point.  When the radical leftist scream and bemoan "special interest" they fail and adroitly dismiss their own "special interest," the unions.  I used to "buy into the Union fantasy" when I was Young and foolish, working in the union I, however could see the many USELESS dolts that they were protecting.  The Myopic morons that couldn't get a job  in the "Real" world if their lives' depended on it!!!  Unions protect the slacker, idiots and useless why should I work hard and to the best of my ability when the dolt next to me barely shows-up at WORK and when they do, don't know the meaning of the word!!!  Unions only exist to perpetuate themselves and suck monies out of "the (said) sacred," "workers" the most perfect example of corrupt unions with nothing but self-serving interests is the teachers' union.  They glibly out-corrupt the teamsters' union.  Which of anyone who is reading this who has been involved or a member of a union can surely attest to.  When they lavishly spend millions upon millions of extorted dollars from their members that have no choice but to either join these corrupt unions or not have a job at all.  The stranglehold that these Violently Viscous unions have upon the Tarnished state of California is completely unconscionable. Until we as voters Raise "our pitch forks in anger," and march upon Sacramento figuratively, as well as literally to make our voices heard, we are at the beck and call of the Teachers' Union that holds this state in bondage while screaming their "supposed care, for the children," which by previous behavior, action and performance are the LAST things in their motivation.

"I'm Just Too Important" (Cell Phone Use in Cars)

This foolishness is just plain dangerous, that's a fact jack.  Too many people these days feel themselves so important that they can't even pull over to the side of the road and stop to answer a "I'm so important" phone call or text message.  They just have to put everyone else in danger (because they are just so important.)  This is an obvious result of the school system/backed by media driven (sic) a celebrity induced pathology, a clear result of idiotic mentality that somehow THEY ARE THAT IMPORTANT! (Well, you're not, get over yourself!)  Just think what did we do before all this "instant messaging nonsense," when did we become soooo self important?  "Alert the media, you are not that important, that you have to squawk and drivel on with every squeak, tweet or twitter or ring tone on your cell phone!"  No one, NO ONE and nothing is that important, the media and your school systems have done you a grave disservice, your self important fantasy such as "I have to answer a text message or a call, " that "I am willing to put everyone that I share the road with in danger, I will take a chance to kill you with my immediate response or frivolous conversations to kill you with my selfish distracted behaviour."  Yes, I am that important and your life and safety is not, because I'm hip and connected and your not.  It's time now for not a $20.00 fine, but a $10,000.00 fine for this self indulgent childish behavior.

Cowards in the Congress !

Words and Music by:
Richard S. Nicholson
January 2009
 
1.
There used to be a time when courage did abound
Responsibility was the "watch word" in big cities and small towns
But now them snollygosters should be under arrrest
Those cowards in the White House and cowards in the press
>chorus
These cowards in the congress, those cowards in the press
A new coward in the White House, it's all such a mess
Thieves abound around us, I'm feeling so distressed
With cowards in the congress, and cowards in the press
2.
I've been around the block a time or maybe 2
I've read about the criminals in congress this is true
These foul and feckless ploiticians, man I must confess
Nothin' but cowards in the White House and cowards in the press
>chorus
3.
There's some who are courageous like Mr. Rush Limbaugh
Me and Michael Savage have rung the rebel call
Now is  not the time for conservatives to take a big recess
'Cause there's cowards in the congress and cowards in the press
>chorus
4.
Every day that passes they steal a hundred billion
You'd think that they're just dancing', at some glamour queen cotillion
We all must exercise our constitional right to have redress
'Cause there's cowards in the White House and cowards in the press
>chorus
5.
Ol' Khrushchev had it right when he said "we'll bury you"
With the demo-commies amongst us, it's all coming true
The fate about to befall us, I can't strong enough impress
Those damn cowards in the White House and cowards in the press
>chorus
6.
Those who said that President Bush would steal our liberty
Have absoluty no clue when it comes to reality
B.O., Michelle are acting like a king and her highness
These are cowards in the White House and cowards in the press
>chorus
7.
Our country's dancing' closer to that connumistic tune
Glorious leader and the Chicago mob have showered us with gloom
The acorn-demos kill free thought with such deadly finesse
There are the scum that hates America like the cowards in the press
>chorus
8.
Commies Ayers and Alunski taught the b.o. mighty well
Just a lie, don't answer questions and then no one can tell
Soon all across America, idiots will be so  possessed
With our cowardly friends in congress and cowards in the press
>chorus
9.
America was once a great land of liberity
Until the enemies from within, spread their hypocrisy
We're now living the "age of insanity" or complete mindlessness
Because of cowards in the White House and cowards in the press

Rational Thought(While living in the Age of Insanity)!!

The Vietnamese Rice Farmer and the American Voter,Cir.1967/2008...                         I recall a time in 1967 when an American reporter interviewed a Vietnamese rice farmer,and amid the back-drop of a very vicious war,this reporter asked a very poingnant question."Do you realize that we are here to free you from Communist Opression "? "So now you may be free to make your own choices in life"! The farmer in reply said"I DON'T CARE,who is over their in the cities making THEIR government", "allI care about is growing my rice and feeding my family and that they are healthy,THAT'S ALL I CARE ABOUT !!!"  It's very disturbingand telling the way that the American voter has come to exemplify this Vietnamese rice farmer. Apparently,by the outcome of this last election "We just don't care!" This is a very sad state of  our current affairs, our Founders/Forefathers (with good women supporting them) would be completely appalled and devistated by the actions and apathy of this current generation of questionable voters.......

Becoming Energy Independent ?

Some talking heads have said that we should have a President, Leader, Congress, a mandate to become "Energy Independent", especially of foreign oil !  If we only had the leadership and drive, like the program put forth to the American people by President Kennedy to "Put a man (American) on the moon, by the "End of the decade",  the 60's ( in less than 8 years amazingly).Well , just to put that kind of program in perspective if undertaken today WOULD NEVER GET DONE!! Why you ask? First of all the environmental Nazis,and the sue-happy lawyers, and all the other behaviorally idiotic groups who would prevent us from accomplishing the goal of going to the moon(Just like they do when the reasoned question comes up"Why can't we drill in our own backyard"). Can you just imagine all the environmental impact studies all the lawsuits, all the special interest minority disenfranchised groups who would impede any, ANY advancement to the goal?  The sad fact is we would have never made it to the moon at least not in 8 years, heck we might just be going their now, after all the environmental impact studies and idiotic lawsuits had played out. Yes, such a fantasy as "energy independence" is just that, a fantasy and probably won't happen in our lifetime, just too many myopic moronic nay-sayers are in the way these idiots would rather see our Country destroyed and pay $10.00 per gal. to terrorist countries than to tap into our own vast oil and coal rich resources,go nukes !!                         Richard S.

Political Thought!

President John Kennedy would be appalled at the behavior of the democratic party today.  I am sure he would be a republican by now.  I am sure he would have said, like Ronald Reagan " I didn't leave the democratic party, the party left me."  When he made his great speech "Ask not what your country can do for you, but what can you do for your country?'  The democrats these days seem to have forgotten that.  They only want power for themselves and "The Party" they don't have the best interest of America at heart, this is obvious.  Their gluttony for power is shameful.   To purely hate the current administration so blindly that they are willing to sacrifice our brave soldiers with betrayal is beyond cowardly.  Little more than a year ago, Hillary stood on the senate floor, and said "We support our troops and will provide them with anything they need, armaments, equipment, etc. Anything, just tell us."  But a few months later, when the vote for appropriations was held, she voted no.  " Hypocrite Hillary!"  There used to be a time in this country when the "Brightest and the Best" were our leaders running for office, for the "Greater Good."  Now, for too many years our choices have been "The Lesser of Two Evils," or "Dumb and Dumber."  How did this happen?  Our Founding Fathers would be horrified to see the "State of Affairs" our Great Country is in, has become.  Our Founding Fathers never intended for public office to be a professional career.  Career politicians are the worst/best embodiment of corruption.  There are no "Statesmen" coming forward today.  Our Founder's intent was for men (or women) of good character and moral conviction to come to serve a term or two with fresh ideas and construction, to contribute positive, then go home to their farms or businesses and give another "Good Fellow" a turn.  To improve our Government and Country, Do Good For America!  Term limits were beyond thought (beyond need).  Today's politicians by and large are corrupt, power greedy, narcissistic and gluttonous.  Pandering to the Purse seems to rule their lives.  Without the power in controlling those lives of the "Great Unwashed Masses,"  and the dependent, uneducated underclass, i.e. intelectual idiots,myopic morons,minorities and sub-group minorities who's sense of "eternal victimization" is so transparent this is where they derive their corrupt power from.  Without constantly pandering to and appeasing these groups, kept internally in politically bondage,  these politicians would be unmasked for the cruel, manipulative leach like, demons they truly are.  It's high time and long overdue that the true "Middle America" wake up and on   next election day, throw all the incumbents out!  Let's start fresh and anew, My Lord,  things can't get any worse, unless we as a country do nothing.
