New Year…New Annoyances

1. Hypocrisy of the Left – Remember Trent Lott? I do.  The left went CRAZZZY over his comments about Strom Thurmond and segregation.  Recently it was revealed that Senator Harry Reid had made this comment in 2008 pertaining to President Obama: “with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one”.  If the left pushes this under the rug, they’ll have a lot of explaining to do come November.  All I really have to say to this is…Bye-bye, Reidie.

2.  Rod Blagojevich – Blago claimed that he is “blacker” than Obama.  When a CBS affiliate caught up with him to ask him about that statement, he replied with “It was a very stupid thing to say”.  Nice catch, Blago…but wait…the man really needs to learn to keep his mouth closed because he finished with, ""Obviously, I'm not blacker than President Obama."  Sigh…

3. Broken Promises – It takes a lot to piss of C-SPAN, but that’s just what the current Congressional leadership and President Obama has done.  We all get that politicians lie to get elected, that’s nothing new.  However, then presidential-nominee Obama repeatedly reinsured the country that he would govern over the most open government the world has ever seen.  He would make sure C-SPAN covered all the health care reform talks to bring to the spot light those in Congress that put insurance companies before the people.  Well, guess what?  It never happened, nor will it.  President Obama, you lied.

4. Socialism -  Our loveable world dictator, Hugo Chavez, ordered a 50% currency devaluation over the weekend.  He also promised to seize any business that attempt to raise prices to cover the currency flop.  Now doesn’t socialism seem just so wonderful?  I just hope Bernanke or Obama don’t get any bright ideas from this…

5. Al Gore-  Whether you believe in the whole global warming farce or not, you have to admit the man needs to chill.  Have you ever noticed that he gets really quiet when the world is in a deep freeze? And as soon as it heats up a little, he jumps on his soap box and cries for the polar bears?  The man is a self-made joke and really needs to retire.

6. Speaking of retiring – Before you announce to the world that you intend on retiring…please line up a hobby just in case you don’t like the whole not being in the spot light thing anymore.  NBC just announced that Leno will be returning to his 11:35 time, pushing back Conan to 12:05.  Jay had years before he officially retired to change his mind, why do it after you’re gone?  Bret Favre, the powerhouse NFL quarterback, has retired twice? three times? I’ve lost count.  It should be a federal law that once you say “I’m retiring” then you’re done.  The end.

7. Job Creation – where are the jobs?  Every month I see more and more jobs being lost.  We spent billions if not trillions of dollars to pull the country out of the recession and save and create jobs yet I see absolutely nothing happening.  It’s been a year, President Obama, when are you going to accept the blame for what’s happening instead of blaming it on President Bush?

8. Nancy Pelosi – instead of getting another Botox shot, how about you act like the Speaker of the House and allow the country to be involved in the health care reform talks instead of going to bed with the Obama administration and Bye-Bye Reidie?  If you don’t want to act for the people than you can go back to San Francisco.

9. Breast Cancer Awareness via Facebook – I’m all for bringing awareness to help bring about cures, but posting the color of your bra on a social networking site?  Really?  There isn’t another tactful way of doing it?  Maybe donating $5.00 to the cancer fund and challenging your friends to match it?  Sounds a little classier to me.

10.  Sanctity of Marriage – What a joke.  When the divorce rate hit 50%, the ‘sanctity of marriage’ went out the window.  Heterosexuals are doing fine themselves destroying marriage, they really shouldn’t worry about the gay community.
