Thoughts For The Day

Somebody call the American Civil Liberties Union! Government employees are praying, praying do you hear me, for the recovery of Sen. Tim Johnson (D-SD). Democrats, whose acquaintance with God is merely passing and usually consists of, “Hey Big Guy, you’re in my chair,” have probably worn out their prayer rugs, what with control of the Senate hanging in the balance. Harry Reid has probably repented and repented and repented again over his recent million dollar sweetheart land deal, although he’s not likely to really do anything about it. Democrats think that God can be fooled with crocodile tears.

Zogby has announced that the United States’ reputation in the Mideast is sinking. Like their’s is rising here.

Have you noticed that everywhere there is a war or rumor of a war, muslims are involved?

Seen that commercial with Jessica Simpson? She probably thinks she looks sexy, when she actually looks like she has some kind of motor-control problem.

The dream is dead. Once upon a time, Martin Luther King, Jr., the hero of the civil rights movement, dreamed there would come a time when his children would be judged on the content of their character, not the color of their skin. Decades hence, his so-called followers have killed that dream. The Congressional Black Caucus (is there a Congressional White Caucus?) has asked democrats on the hill to hire more minorities. Nancy Pelosi has promised to make minority hiring a priority for incoming committee chairmen. So, character counts for nothing; skin color for everything. And since it’s democrats who are doing it, no racism is involved. Remember, only Republicans can be racists, even though they hire more minorities than democrats.

The so-called president of Iran stated in an interview with Time magazine - where he’s in running for man of the year, if you can believe that - that “No country in the world looks upon America as a friend.” Really? Then why are we the first country that every other country comes crying to when it needs help? I suggest that in the future, all countries of the world go to Iran. Maybe if that pimple on the butt of the globe actually did something for the world besides spout hatred, it would realize just how really hard it is to be a real member of the global community. Oh, and after the countries have gotten what they want, I expect them to turn around and spit on Iran, just like everyone does with America.

On a high note, a federal district court has thrown out a lawsuit for reparations for slavery. Apparently, even a federal judge couldn’t quite buy the fact that certain people can’t succeed today because of what happened to some long-dead ancestor.

Here’s my take on slavery: every descendant of a slave in America should get down on their hands and knees every night of their lives and thank almighty God that their ancestors endured the horrors and cruelty of slavery. Because of what the slaves suffered, their descendants get to grow up in the greatest country on the face of the globe. All of you who think your opportunities here are limited, go to Africa and see what doors are open to you.
