Surprise!
April 17th, 2007 . by CaryHey, have you missed me?
I’ve not been very active here on the blog – and I apologize. Getting used to a different schedule is, at best, difficult.
Let me catch up to speed here:
First, I’m down to 205. Yes, 205. From 221 about three weeks ago. It’s called reducing caloric intake, increasing activity, and screwing up your sleep/snack schedule.
Imus – you are an idiot. You weren’t that good of a show host, and buddy, if anyone has a face for radio, you’re it.
Rutgers Ladies ball team: I applaud you for standing up to Imus’ idiocy. Really, laughing at his attempt at humor and referring to him as an idiot would have been better. Please, don’t become professional victims over this. The last thing any of you should accept is to be introduced as a member of the group that Imus insulted. You all have accomplished so much more with your lives, don’t allow this event to define your college career. Or limit your future.
Veterans of a certain age may have never heard the words “thank you for your service” or even “welcome home.” I know that, being at the tale end of that era, it is heartwarming to hear them. It is even more heartwarming to hear them from a young vet freshly returned from the sandboxes. Even better is for a member of a certain group to apologize for calling those in uniform “baby killers” – and you never saw the guy before.
Virginia Tech will feel the hurt from this mess for quite some time. I’m going to ask some hard questions here. Why was the scumbag allowed to continue shooting? Was no one else on that campus armed? All those intelligent people, and none of them thought to exercise their second amendment right? Why do the majority of the newspapers list 32 victims, but the New York Times insists on counting the scumbag as one of the victims, as in “33 Dead”? Early reports had the scumbag lining up the victims and executing them – has the liberal infusion of education gone that far? “Class, today we learn how to appease an aggressor…”
My thoughts and prayers are with those who were hurt or are hurting from this attack. But come on, a little gun control (no, not that kind – gun control means keeping your groups tight) would have solved this before his first attempt at reloading. Or a mass rush. He wouldn’t have stood a chance if the students had just ganged up on him. Yes, there would have been injuries, possibly deaths, but not 32 if he had been overrun after the first shots were fired. And, please – using the e-mail system to warn everyone? Like I’ve even checked my e-mail in the last couple of days – whatever happened to the old fashioned loudspeakers and warning sirens? Oh, yeah – too “coldwar”-ish, and to avoid offending, they were removed, right?
Pssh.
I’m still running a write in campaign for President. My plan (provided I find a helper for my route) is to ask my supporters to do a mass posting on a designated day of the week. This will be my “mass mailing”, and in it I will be asking for more supporters to join in getting my name in front of the people of this country. The legal citizens, who have voting privileges, that is – I don’t need or want or wish to pander to the illegal invader voter base (yes, that was a jab at you, Hillary), I want the fine members of We the People to vote for me. Or at least mention me often enough that the Career Politicians (ptew!) realize that We the People are tired of them catering to everyone but the ones who they are supposed to be representing…
Thank you for stopping by, God bless you all, Wear Red on Fridays, and write in Cary Cartter for President in 2008!
