Scotts 2 Cents

It’s still January….this one doesn’t surprise me, we knew this coming.

Basically, if you can’t pay your bills because you got into a house over your head irresponsbily the government is now going to bail you out.  Are you kidding me?

LONG story short my parent’s lost the house they built from the ground up and that my sister and I grew up in because they ran into financial trouble because of inflation and a real estate market that all but literally died in the 80s.  Nobody bailed them out – their were consequences for irresponsbile actions.  This is absolute crap.

Welcome to Socialism!

So I should stop paying my mortgage for a few months I can get bailed out!

I don’t even know what to say.  I’m already exhausted by it all – I don’t have the energy to go on and on editorially anymore – and it’s only the end of January.

How is this not racist?

ALSO….

Nothing like fair & unbiased coverage of the news:

It’s only been 2 days…..this stuff is more important than your TV and it WILL lead to a major terrorist attack on US soil in the next 4 years.  Unless they wait for us idiots to again elect a left wing radical in 2012 and then start attacking since they’ve been allowed to build strength and plan significant attacks.  

I’m not going to go on and on about this, it makes me too angry and upsets me too much.

But these are just examples of the candy-ass crap we can expect from our liberal President.  Attention all terrorist – go nuts – you will suffer no significant consequences for your actions.  You’ll be treated better in US prisons at US taxpayers expense than you have it in your own country.  Despite the fact that have killed thousands of American citizens you will have your handheld and be treated with kid gloves.

To quote Colonel Jessup
“I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it. ”
Those should have been Bush’s parting words! 

God help us all for the next 8 years.  Yes, I’ve resigned myself to the fact that 95% of African Americans voting for Obama for one single reason will be too much for the Republicans to overcome in 2012.

He’s not even in office yet and the fears of ridiculous bleeding heart liberalism I have feared for many months is already starting.

For well over a year, and probably closer to 2 years the American public has been informed of the required transition to digital TV signals broadcast over the air.  If you’ve been alive the past several months you know about this!  And for MOST people, it doesn’t mean a thing – we have cable, or satellite or a brain and got a converter box a year ago.  Every TV station can’t go more than 12 minutes without mentioning it, it’s on the radio every 9 seconds.  It’s in newspapers and magazines everywhere!

So if you don’t know that on February 17th, 2009 analog TVs will no longer be able to receive the over-the-air signal from TV stations in your city if you don’t have a converter box (or a cable, or a TV built in this century) one of two things are true….
You are either too stupid to watch TV or too lazy to watch TV.  Either way – it’s YOUR FAULT!!!!
I can’t stress that enough – it’s YOUR FAULT – why should the government take care of you if you can’t take care of yourself?  Oh wait – that’s why you elected Obama. 

The government has handed out vouchers so your poor, lazy, stupid asses don’t have to even pay for this upgrade to the 21st century here in 2009 and you still haven’t gotten your converter box then you deserve to watch a blank screen starting February 18th.  The good news is that if you’re too stupid or lazy to have not gotten off your couch long enough to get your converter in the last two years a blank screen will probably entertain you just fine.

So now, even after the government has done everything possible short of coming to your house for you and giving you a new digital TV with a digital antenna or giving you a bailout for free cable (I’m sure some of you are still waiting for this) Obama wants to give you more time.  Are you f-ing kidding me!  This is just the start of the downfall of this nation led by the bleeding heart left.  After months and months and months and I suspect millions of dollars to make abundantly clear to everyone the need for a converter box by February 17th, 2009 the government has to hold your hand even longer to take care of you.  Dear god, what’s going to happen when it’s something more important than TV???

I’m flabergasted at even the thought of further extending the deadline for the digital TV transition.  It makes me angry just thinking about it.  It’s beyond ridiculous.  Does Obama really think the morons that haven’t gotten their converter box, or government handout for a converter box by now that they’ll really do it with an extension???  Of course they won’t.  They’re still waiting for the government to show up at their house, leave a pile of money, give them cable and a digital television that those of us who work hard, and actually pay our bills and our taxes can cover the cost of.  Welcome to Socialism and the Obama years. 

Maybe if I can’t beat them, I’ll join them….where’s my damn Ice Cream!
