My Opinion or am I a Bad Guy? You Decide!

Ok it’s been a long time since I’ve updated. For everyone that has check in periodically, I apologize. I’ve been caught up in this little thing called life. Yes, I know you’re all saying, “He finally got a life!?” It’s true! If I can get a life, I’m sure anyone can.

Seriously, I’ve went through a lot of changes recently. I graduated with an associate’s degree in May and since then I’ve been looking for work! I finally landed a job in the library at the same school from which I graduated. It’s funny how things work out. Who would have thought I would work in a library!!! Anyways, I’m trying to get everything settled down and in a routine. It’s slowly working out for me. I can really say I’m in a good place right now both personally and professionally! Hopefully, I’ll be able to update more often now.

I’ve actually had a lot of things I wanted to blog about: some things that’s been eating at me and some things that people comment to me or email me about. Since it’s almost 1 in the morning, I’ll just talk about one thing that has me fired up right now. This could go on all night so here goes…

Some of you may already know that I have a couple of videos on YouTube.com. They’re called “Baby Bush: Pretending to be in Charge” and “Bush Wars: Episode 1.” Yes, I know that by putting those out there I opened myself to comments and ridicule. I know that and I understand it. But what the idiots do not understand is I’m not attacking Republicans as a whole! Hell, I’m not even attacking Republicans! I’m attacking the big idiot, the one who calls himself President of the United States.

It’s amazing how people cannot grasp that concept. I’ve never been called a “leftist” or “liberal” so many times in my life. Just to set the record straight, I agree with the Democrats on some issues and I agree with the Republicans on some issues. Everyone who has left a comment or sent me a message calling me a Democrat, or any other word used to describe Democrats, has accused me of trying to stab my country in the back. Ok, I’m the bad guy. Let’s see what I did to become a bad guy, shall we?

-Ok, I sent over 100,000 troops to a third world country because the leader of that country said he wanted my father dead. Oh wait, that wasn’t me that was Bush.

-Alright, alright. In order for me to get Congress to approve sending troops to this third world country, I lied and said this country had Weapons of Mass Destruction. Then later found out there were none to be found. Um, no! Again, it wasn't me.

-Let’s see. Oh yeah, I was in so much of a hurry to conquer this country that I sent my troops over there lack luster equipment to protect themselves. Had I given them better equipment, there may be fewer deaths in combat. Oh crap, that’s not on me either.

-There was this one time, when my troops took Baghdad that I said we were doing this for the people of that country. I said they wanted us there because they were being treated unfairly. Then a few weeks later, the same people whom I said wanted us there began attacking my troops. Damnit, still not on me.

-Oh yeah, what about when I started reaching in space for reasons to make my dumb ass idea to invade this country look good? Like when I said that the country was “a haven for terrorist?” Because we all know that every terrorist in the world just has to come from this country (yeah right). Nope, I’m not that stupid.

-This is my personal favorite. What about the time when I started spending billions of dollars into rebuilding this country? Billions that our country didn’t even have. Even though when I came into office the budget was balanced and I just threw all that crap away because who really wants their checkbook balanced when living paycheck to paycheck is much more exciting. Oh wait, that was Bush!

Wow! I did absolutely nothing to become this bad guy who is out to destroy America. Nope, not me! Bush is doing it himself. Oh yeah, correct me if I’m wrong, but did I blame Republicans for any of that? No? Ok, I thought so.

So to all you people who sit at home and have done nothing but fill in the circle beside Republican at every election, you are my close encounter of the stupid kind because it’s people like you who do not see that I’m just voicing my opinion (a right that I fought for 4 years in the Army to protect) and not a political stand. It’s people like you that’s screwed up America. The extreme right and the extreme left have torn this country apart and it will take years if not decades to fix. The extremes on both sides only want to completely disagree with each other because that’s what they think is right. Whatever happened to serving the American people? Whatever happened to making a RIGHT decision no matter what side it came from? Whatever happened to using common sense and not stupidity when making decisions pertaining to the American people?
