Whew… these take too long. I may cut back to one a week. Sorry it’s not color. I’m out of time. Chill, baby!

When I was young, I thought myself a liberal. I was against government controlling everything. I was against the government taxing me to death. I was for freedom of expression, freedom of thought and action. I was against bigotry and intolerance toward people of opposing views. And I was an agnostic.
Then I grew up. And you know what has changed about me? I became a Bible believing Christian. You know what has changed about these views? NOTHING. I’m against government controlling everything. I’m against the government taxing me to death. I’m for freedom of expression, freedom of thought and action. I am against bigotry and intolerance toward people of opposing views.
My understanding of how the world should be hasn’t changed. It turns out I’m a conservative.
It is the liberals who want larger government that intrudes into every nook and cranny of your life. It’s liberals who want higher taxes on anything and everything and on anyone and everyone (even though that’s not the ‘party’ line). It’s the liberals who are against freedom of expression, thought and action if it’s against their personal dogma. It’s liberals who are bigoted and intolerant toward those who don’t toe their party line beliefs in abortion, religion, gay rights and recently and most vociferously, GLOBAL WARMING. Apparently my most misunderstood concept of my youth was not how the world should work… it was my understanding of what it really meant to be a ‘liberal’.
My question to you is, if you agree with everything I said in the first paragraph but still call yourself a liberal, isn’t it time you grew up too?
It’s official, I believe. Today the war is over. Thank GOD. Thank our TROOPS. Thank our GENERALS. And thank George W. Bush, who may have made some mistakes (name me a president who didn’t make mistakes in a war), but in the end he got the job done. There is a free democracy in the Middle East, let’s hope it’s the first of many!
Iraq, we’ve given you a democracy, if you can keep it! (to paraphrase Ben Franklin)
Hello all! For all those that want to know, (*yes, Hapajap and I are still BFFs*), I have finally started my blog at TheBlackgamer.com Also you can follow me @theblackgamer as well.
It’s my usual look at the world from the perspective of being Black in America, and being a rabid gamer. So sort of Electronic Tigers without the art. But I’m hoping successful enough that we can convince Hapajap to make some stellar T-Shirts
(*hint hint*)
So please, stop by, make fun of me, see the world through the eyes of El Gato Negro, and give me suggestions on whom to annoy when I go to Comic Con and Blizzcon this year.
Getting a Flip HD to capture the fear in their eyes…

All this BS about hybrid cars and hydrogen being ‘new’ technology… whether it’s Bush, Obama, or Jimmy Carter for that matter… they’re all full of crap, because this technology has been around since the 70’s. And not just that, there are a bunch of folks making their own MPG boosters in their garages that actually WORK. The oil companies and the car companies and the politicians are all in each others pockets, and have managed to keep us addicted to gasoline for decades beyond our technological means.
And yeah, that makes it a conspiracy, but sometimes the truth is too easy to see to not admit that there is one.
For example:
That’s just one of many. Check these out:
And let’s see if this ever reaches the market:
The problem? Water is FREE. Bastards. All of ‘em.
This is a long video, full length movie long. But wow. It’s scary.
