Too lazy to write something new...
Fiscal Conservative--does that mean the tax breaks and corporate welfare go to the bankers, the energy cartels, the warmongers or some other group who doesn't need the help? As long as you can blame welfare queens its all good.
How about some Fiscal Progressiveness where we see who has the money and tax them. Like they did in the past. How about we stop spending money on endless wars that suck up our treasure and kill our people. How about end the drug war an put those cops to work securing the border or regulating the newly created marijuana farming industry.
I could go on, but we need less talk about "going back" and looking ahead. Too many conservatives see themselves as pioneers, homesteaders who can do it all by themselves out in the wild if gub'mint would get out the way. What they really are are Indians who tried to share the land and realized too late that the rest of the world was coming.
Nothing says America is guaranteed to win. The precious bible never mentions us.America could be a blip on the radar of history if we don't get our shit together.
But what do I know, I'm an asshole posting on a wrestling board. Pro-choice, tax the rich, generally anti-war, actually pro-gun, and pro-legalization and an American asshole.

Just another day
Two days in a row. Oh my gawd! I must be going for some type of a record. A broken record. Skipping? Repeating itself over and over until you become insane? Yeah, that sounds about right.
I just finished watching the show Life. It's on NBC. Damn good show. It's about a cop that gets framed for a double murder and gets sent to jail. After 12 years, I think it was, he if found to have been wrongfully accused and is let out of jail. He also gets a lot of money from the city because of improprieties in his conviction. He goes back to work on the police force to find out who framed him and to find out who the killer actually was. But it goes beyond that
Charlie Crews, the detective, is just awesome. He is trying to balance his need with revenge with a zen philosiphy that helped keep him alive in prison. But there is also a darkside there because he wassn't that great a guy before prison and had to do some bad stuff to stay alive while behind bars. It's just an awesome show. And seriously, I don't know who does the casting but there are some sexy ass strong women characters on the show. (Hey I'd be dead if I didn't notice). It a good show. Watch it.
Did my taxes today. At least my Federal ones. God. It's just a freaking drop in the bucket compared to the all the other money flying around out there. But it makes a difference to me. That's my money! I got stuff I could do with that cash. I don't know what. After all, its not that much cash.
I do need to get a few kids though. I don't want to actually raise them or anything silly like that. I just want some kids that I can put on the tax forms as deductions. Wow. They really do make a difference to the bottom line don't they? What a scam you parents have going! You say you want to have a family and all that good stuff but it just comes down to getting a cut on you damn taxes don't it. Oh and that earned income tax credit thing, what is that about? You get extra money back for breeding? Come on!
I was just notified that kids cost a lot of money and that the money you get from the tax refund still doesn't cover that much. That's what I thought you would say. It's all a scam. Like maternity leave. I mean you could bring the kid to work. Especially if you sit at a desk in an office. And if you don't sit at a desk you can wear one of those papoose/kid backpack things. That's a good chance for bonding. Just because you physically push another life out of you body is no cause to slack off. At least not in this economy. Watch. In five years everyone will be doing it. Laterzzz...
