We know four things for certain. The country needs cheap, alternative fuel source. Two, the human body is 18 percent carbon. Three, carbons can be turned into hydrocarbons. Four, we have a buttload of illegal aliens in our country. the fuel of the future, Mexinol. A clean-burning, cheap alternative to gasoline, Mexinol's future seems unlimited in its potential. There are other gasoline alternatives available such as ethanol. However, Mexinol has certain advantages from corn. Corn has to be grown, harvested, and processed. With Mexinol, raw materials come to you Turn the temp down another 20 degrees and in a seemingly never-ending stream. Go ahead and purchase that boat-sized SUV. There's plenty of Mexinol for everyone

RTIPPE......................SO BECAUSE YOUR KD(S) WILL BE MEXICAN.......YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT THE CAUCASIANS? Do you know what kind of country your kid will grow up in? Think about it! By 2042 the U.S. will be primarily populated by Mexicans as a majority. If you take note, it is not Mexicans who contribute tax dollars to anything, they TAKE money earned by whites who pay the majority of taxes (92% Federal). THIS NATION IS GOING TO BE A HELL HOLE FOR EVERYONE. The few working will be sucked dry paying for all the Mexicans, Asians and Blacks who have a solid history of living on welfare. If your kid is educated, he will work to pay for others. If he is not, he will live like trash on welfare, and there won't be much as almost everyone is going to be on welfare. Think about it! I am encouraging all 3 of my kids (eldest is 25) NOT to have children for this very reason. It's not about race, but the statistics concerning race are very concerning. Your kid will either be payin...
I was reading an article regarding the deportation of 96 immigrants who were found in the back of a refrigerated fruit truck. These people were sent back to their countries on being found. Upon reading the article I was melancholy. How sad that people had to take such severe measures to improve the lives of their family. I scrolled down to the comments to see if others were sympathetic to the situation and I found that it was quite the opposite. Above are just a few of the disturbing comments posted on AOL.
I didn't know that racism was still popular or that the Klan was still recruiting but I guess they are....and in full force. I don't know about you but I am embarrassed. It is amazing to me that in a self proclaimed Christian nation people are so hateful. And the sad part is these people have children! We are breeding a nation of hateful and close minded individuals. I am sad that my children will have to grow up hearing this stuff and I am worried about what my future nieces and nephews will have to endure.
I would like to challenge everyone to read through the gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John and then reflect on what jesus would do in this situation. Would he be on the side of the AOL posters or the undocumented migrants? And the evaluate where you stand. If you find that what you would do and what jesus would do are different, you have some changes to make!

The Race issue

Who knew that one press question could lead to a huge race debate? Yes, the President's comments regarding the Gates arrest were ill worded (and later apologized for) but his point were valid. I believe that most logical people would argue that the arrest of Gates was not completely fair, race issues aside. Furthermore, the President did not call Crowely a racist nor did he say that the issue was, in fact, linked to racial tensions. Nevertheless political commentators still believe that this is a racial issue stating claims that the President himself is a racist.



First off, since our President is mixed, being racist against "white people" would be a conflict of interest. Secondly, not only is the Vice President white but so is a majority of his cabinet members. However, this did not stop Glenn Beck from "pulling the race card" on Obama. Beck stated that Obama has "a deep seeded hatred for white people or the white culture."



My first question for Beck is "what is white culture and what does it entail?" I know what American culture is but I am still a little hazy on "white culture". Would it be European culture? Does it resemble the culture of Great Britain? If it does, would that mean that social health care is apart of "white culture"? No no because socialized health care is just the slippery slope to a communist regime right? This man is so of the wall Fox News won't even back his comments. When Fox News won't even claim you, you know you have fallen off the wagon. Can someone tell me how this man got his own show?!

And lets just be honest Beck, you are the one with race issues here. You are practically leading the birthest crusade, you know, those who are questioning the birthplace of Obama. At some point you have to just let go and lose gracefully. Obama is the President and is a natural born citizen of the United States, just like you. Just because he is half black does not mean he was born in Africa! I think that we all need to mimic the actions of Obama and put our issues aside and have an afternoon beer!

Starting a blog...

Since I have always had a lot of opinions I have chosen to start a blog. I plan to speak on current political, economic and social issues. I am on the liberal side of the political spectrum and I do have unconventional economic views so if you do not like it don't read it!
