WHY DON'T THEY LISTEN?

I must say, as a people, WE aren't doing enough. I want to address why no one is listening to the American people. Actually, I want to ask us all, why. Why are WE not listening to each other? I have stated for quite awhile that, in my opinion, the two party system in our country has finally run its course. There is no visible line any longer. The blur we see is simply, "the political machine".

I commend those whose ideals drive them to seek public office on a party ticket. At least, at their very core, they seem to hold a deep desire to make a change, to listen, to help, initially. But, once elected, it takes an even shorter amount of time than in years past, to turn a true "public servant" mentality into that of a "die-hard politician".

Just look at the career politicians in our government who, rather than accept potential defeat, jumped ship and quickly raised the flag of the opposing party to run on THEIR ticket. If that doesn't scream "self serving SOB" then nothing does.

Recently I told someone that we, as a people, need to put aside the lust for power that our parties have lulled us into believing is the ONLY way to exist. We need to stop creating bureaucracy for the sake of it. We need to wake up America and realize that being a Democrat or a Republican is a useless, baseless and cowardly attempt at honoring the lives of so many men and women that have died to grant us the very freedom we taunt each other with.

For God's sake, let's truly be AMERICANS!!!! Let's take back our country from the politicians and put it in the hands of the people on the front line; you and me. Let's stop fighting about which candidate has the better idea and realize that we can think for OURSELVES. Let us stand, united and tell our government that we are a REPUBLIC and that we are reclaiming our sovereign nation under the Constitution that created it.

If you're in any way in agreement with this; if you're tired of being spoon-fed the same BS from the same politicians.. then let me know.. pass this on.. let others know..

Let's do something about it. VOTE, WRITE, CALL IN, EMAIL IT, DO SOMETHING.. ANYTHING TO MAKE OUR GOVERNMENT HAVE TO ACKNOWLEDGE OUR VOICES.

We talk of "movements" and "parties" and "liberals" and "conservatives". These are terms created by the very groups and politicians that dictate to us every day.. and have been for decades.

Remember, we're AMERICANS. Our country is a melting pot of many nations. However, it was founded by immigrants that came here, became citizens, learned our language, kept their traditions, and embraced our land. We don't have to please everybody that comes here nor do we have to take care of them. It's not hatred or bigotry; it's taking responsibility for one's own actions.

It's time for us to take responsibility. We let ourselves get here.. now, let's get us out of this mess.

Yep.. that about sums it up... thanks... More to eat... gotta go.

See you soon.......

Well I'll just be damned.. I do have a Blog!!!

Okay.. it has been an interesting time.. nothing exciting.. just busy with life, politics, family.. etc. I've not maintained my cannibalism as I should have and I apologize... well, that's not entirely true...

I've maintained my "eating of life and its people" I just haven't reported it to you.. by the way, the definition of a cannibal is; "one that is fed up with people".

Yeah, it's cute.. in a pathetic attempt at being cute kinda way.. so, naturally, I like it!!!

Now, let's get into catching up a bit, shall we?

As many of you know, I sort of jump around with my subject matter; for me, that's how my life works. Just ask anyone that knows me. It's not that I don't genuinely enjoy doing things.. I just get put in to so many activities. So, here are the past several months in a nutshell:

November saw more government rhetoric, blah-blah about spending and jobs.. bullstuff, really.. but, like good sheep the American people ate it.. then, December!!! I got married!! Yep.. Jen and I tied the knot at Kroger!!! And, Rev. D.C. Perry (er, um, that's Clay) was the officiate... we jumped over a stick in the parking lot(I think he did in fact, carve it), Clay said pretty words (that we prepared) and then we went inside to a throng of paparazzi... it's true.. look at TMZ...

January saw a whole new year.. yep... jumped right out there and "BAM".. 2010.. who the hell would've thunk it.. but, it did happen.. and we're a decade into Buck Rogers territory... my middle baby, Lexi turned 10.. I am officially old!!

February had hearts in it, with candy and cards... ( I want to invent a holiday, anyone is welcome to suggest one, I'll split it..)

March.. In like a lion.. and never looked back.. it finally got warm and has been getting warmer!! The rain has come.. but, the heat got here sooner and thus.. the pollen...

and now.. April... My oldest, my son Bert, turned 14.. so, beyond old.. I'm once again, dust... speaking of which.. pollen is routinely over the 3000 level.. why don't they just change the damn severe level to be higher than 120? It's only 120 or less, under Niagara Falls.. right?

Ok.. that was a boring, but, a concise recap of the past several months.. I'll be back soon and on track with life, love, politics.. and daily happenings..

Tune in next time when farmer Brown says, "... and I don't even like Spandex".

More to eat.. got go!!!

Pay Attention my Cannibal Clan.....

A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned - this is the sum of good government.
Thomas Jefferson

Ladies and gentlemen, in a previous post I made a claim, strictly based upon my own opinion (which, as you know, I can do) stating that the "Obama machine" was doing its best to "lull us into a false sense of security". I stated that I felt as if there was a "Trojan Horse" type of strategy taking place... the government silently taking over the private sector business/free enterprise opportunities in this county... now, that was just opinion.. now, I think I have proof.... no "I told you so's" here... just frustration and the knowledge that we are truly in trouble in America. Take a look at the following information, links and charts. Disturbing to say the least. This information was compiled from online resources, periodicals and other media. It is out there and available for you and the masses to see... but, it's NOT being thrown around, yet...

Obama himself lacks any real private sector experience. If you read Obama's books you will find where he refers to his brief stint working in the private sector as "working behind enemy lines." The sector of our country where people work together in voluntary collusion Obama calls "the enemy.' Obama much prefers the sector that works through force and coercion.

What about his key advisors? What about his cabinet? Take a look at the link.http://blog.american.com/?p=7572 Here you will see the private sector experience of key cabinet members dating back to Teddy Roosevelt. Notice that the average runs somewhere around 50%. This would mean that from the days of Roosevelt forward, key presidential cabinet members had spent about 50% of their working lives in the private sector. But ... take a look at Obama's cabinet. The figure is between 7% and 8%. The lowest EVER!!!

Now, this information is NOT mine. But, I found it while researching my position. This puts into perspective, at least for me, the consorted effort of this administration to steer this nation into a socialist government... and likely worse. Obama, by his own volition, is a Marxist... wow... Again, "Remember Communist Russia"... "Keyword: Remember"

Maybe this explains why Obama and his administration seem to believe that government is truly the answer to all of our problems.

More to eat... be back soon.... It will lighten up a bit.. there are personal things to share... okay... get others on board... share my blog... it wants to grow...

Okay... time to eat...

Yes.. it is Thanksgiving...

Well... as this cannibal prepares to eat turkey and all the trimmings, I want to take a moment and truly give thanks.

I am truly blessed to live in a country that grants us the freedom to enjoy a holiday like this one. A time to spend with my family and loved ones to look back and realize all that we do truly have.

Yes, we do... I do... take that for granted. I'm ashamed to say that, as an American, I too have taken for granted far too long the majesty of this great nation and her people.

So, first, thank you God for the many blessing that I know that I don't deserve but that you freely bestow upon me. I have no fear that Your will shall guide us in the direction that we are to be in. Thank you.

Second, I want to thank every service person.. every soldier in ANY theater of war or stateside. I want to apologize for taking my freedom and liberties for granted that ALL OF YOU so selflessly allow me to enjoy sitting in my warm house on this computer as if it were pre-determined for me to do so. You work and die, everyday for this. Your price is high, but you know, as we should all know as Americans, that freedom isn't free. Thank you and God bless you.

And finally, but certainly not least; to the families of those brave men and women mentioned above. Your sacrifice is probably the hardest. The long hours of fathers, mothers, sons and daughters.. not knowing and fearing the worst. Having to listen to the rhetoric of an ungrateful government and a people that pass you by.

From all of us that understand and appreciate, thank you and God bless all of you today and forever.

This cannibal is going to eat... I'll be back soon.

Yes it has been a while... soon, you'll see why...





Well, just 'good grief'... in my best Charlie Brown disgusted tone...
What the hell, America? I have spent a lifetime enjoying the freedoms that so many have afforded me. Perhaps, and by design, I have taken all of it for granted. But, at some point, we wake up; we begin to see the realities around us. We stop relying on the magic of youth to guide our way in life. Ladies and gentlemen, we are supposed to take responsibility for our actions, our lives, our very existence.

I am so appalled at the world around me.... blah, blah, blah... ok, everyone I know feels that way. Unfortunately, only a very few of us can, will and are doing anything about it.

What am I referring to? Well, unless you're under a rock.. or in college focusing on pop culture... that being current music, trends, fashion.. etc.. (for the dumb masses... ) and you can tell us everything about American Idol or Miley Cyrus.. but not a damn thing about this country and its pathetic leadership... you already know.

History does indeed repeat itself, and recently a very dear friend and I were having that discussion. We are at the top of the circle about to be cresting the curve into the downward slope on the good 'ole repeat mode of history. It's taken 233+ years to come full circle.. but, by God.. here it is... we have finally become the same tyrannical, oppressive, controlling, taxing and demanding without representation country that we fled from. AND....AND.... We are sitting back and allowing the most inept, lying, cheating, Constitution bashing leader (Barack Obama) and his Gestapo thugs lull us into a mindset that the economy and this country is failing because of our arrogance, greed, Christian based beliefs and a myriad of shit that has NOTHING to do with anything except their agenda in fooling the dumb masses into thinking that the government is the win all, be all savior to this situation.... What the Hell..??

The economy, etal... is not so bad that it can't be corrected with simple numbers and strategies already in place. However, the Obama machine is keeping the country in a state of fear until their government gains more control of the private sector business in our nation.. then, suddenly, and almost overnight, they will announce the end of recession and a new era with government controlled industries, medical care, housing and banking... Oh, shit.... Communist Russia... remember them??

Key word: "Remember"

I can't even think straight enough to write well right now...

Push this blog... and let's get started waking folks up... I've only just begun to write... I welcome all opinions... just know.. this is MY blog and I rule it supreme.

Time to eat some more... see you soon...

Well Hell......

It's hard to articulate the "dripping southern drawl" that the title of the post should exude.. so, say it in your head... "Weuwwlll Heuwwlll".... drawing it out much like a quote from Squidbillies...

I'm sorry I haven't posted in a while... I've been rather busy.. and my afternoons and evenings have been full of exciting forays into the most fascinating opportunities that I have ever come across in my years of existence... or, I've been lazy... but, seriously, I've been busy!!

For those that don't know, I am a partner in a marketing firm. We handle advertising, copy writing, promotion, public relations, staff/team building... and a myriad of additional services. Well, our promotion bug has allowed us to become concert promoters!!! Not bad for what some can term a "Home Based Business"... but yes.. we are partnered with our TV and radio friends and a Nashville recording artist to promote her album debut concert.. right in Senoia, GA.

Why Senoia? Well, that was my first question. As it turns out, she has roots here and a very dear friend of hers, from Peachtree City, wrote a song that appears on her new album.

The work we do, is not hard work.. well, from a physical standpoint. However, the creative aspect can be grueling.. and any of you that have worked in a capacity to "create" but try to use the "vision" of a... let's call them.. "non-creative".. you know the frustration that can ensue...

I'm going to be shifting my focus in the coming days to discuss several topics about my business exploits... partially for the entertainment value and to glean ideas from all of you.. and partially to do an experiment with a new software I'm checking out for my blog... I'll update everyone on it if it works...

I'll be back soon... tell others about me... Time to eat some more!!!!
