They Want their Country Back

I was watching this really good but scary video about the 9/12 march in Washington and it hit me, what the people here were talking about. They want their country back. Don’t they realize that we have elections and that is when you get your country back? We all had the chance [...]

R-E-S-P-E-C-T

What in the hell is going on in this country when the people on the right feel free to show utter disrespect for the office of the President of the United States. First they say that the President should not be talking to the students of America without their parents permission. Since when [...]

The Kennedy Funeral

I was just looking at the photos from Teddy Kennedy’s funeral and came across this. Sure, there are lots of political celebrities there, but Jack Nicholson? What is that about? Did he and Teddy have a relationship? Go out, have a few drinks, pick up chick together? Or was Jack [...]

I knew my ancestors had slaves, but today I met my cousins, the descendants of those slaves at a reunion of the Carson family held at the Carson House in Marion, NC. Seems great-great-great-great grandpa [...]

How did we get to this place with Health Care?

I got out of bed early today and took a ride over to Tennessee with a friend to see what is happening out there for the common American when it comes to health care. An organization called Remote Area Medical (RAM) out of Knoxville was conducting a free medical clinic in the Cocke County [...]

The Scariest Woman In My America

I know I said I wouldn’t talk about her any more, but today’s resignation makes her my most feared woman alive. I know she has an agenda — a larger purpose. She says she is resigning so she can
fight for all our children’s future from outside the governor’s office
Where is [...]

Michael Jackson had to die

It seems almost inevitable now that Michael Jackson died at 50. He was the boy-man who could not grow up. Can anyone actually imagine him as an old man? No one can argue that MJ was anything if not a very isolated and unhappy man. That is so sad. What [...]
