Me, my sisters, mom, and Aunt Sandra in Ottawa, Canada July 1, 1984 (I think).

Watching the View (don’t ask) that cow, Joy Behar, basically just told Elisabeth that Obama was off-limits. When Elisabeth was joking about old foot-in-his-mouth Biden, she told her to “leave Biden alone” because he was going to be comedians only source of material.

And now she just said that the negativity against Bush was “different.”

These people are going to keep up the hypocrisy, making themselves look more and more stupid.

I am fucking sick to death of the fair weather patriots. I am proud to fly the flag regardless of who holds the office of president and whether or not I voted for him. I don’t need some asshole writing for the NY Times travel section to tell me it’s cool again.

You can’t decide that the rules are only cool when you win, like a petulant four year old that’s losing a game. You have to be proud to call yourself an American regardless of who you voted for and who holds office. I get wanting to keep a low profile if your an American in a foreign country. I wouldn’t want to stir up shit some place where freedom of speech is probably just a pipe dream. But the whole “it’s cool to be American again” people can suck it.

And don’t get me started on the brain trust we call Ashton Kutcher and the rest of those Hollywood elitists. It’s not about suddenly become a good citizen now that your guy is in office. I’m sorry Hollywood, but President Bush didn’t outlaw charitable service for eight years. Also, the president is the public servant, not me. I’ll do or not do as I see fit, Mrs. Obama. Thank you very much.

So, sorry if I’m not buying the bullshit. You can’t suddenly tell everyone to unite, when for the last eight years you’ve been the ones making the divide wider and wider. I’ve been proud to call myself American all along. I’m not the one that strayed. YOU did.

Being an American is all about taking the good with the bad. It’s accepting the man that over half the country elects as president even if you didn’t vote for him. It’s about the fact that I listened to your criticisms for eight years and your cries of “he’s not my president” (btw, in my opinion that is unpatriotic) and you better damn well believe that I’ll tell you mine in the coming years. With one big exception: I won’t whine about how he’s not my president – because he is our president.

Being American is not about that fact that we disagree. It’s that we CAN disagree.

As you can see from the scratches on his face, he totally got into a knife fight with some other babies in a dark alley. Let’s just say the other babies didn’t come out looking quite so good.

If you asked us about 20 minutes ago how we liked our HDTV that we’ve had for almost a month, we would have told you that it was nice.

That was before Drew found the HD component cables that came with the cable box.

Now all we can say is HOLY CRAP!  I think I saw a booger hanging out of someone’s nose on the Golden Globes!  And now we’re just flipping around.  Planet Earth: Oceans.  It’s like I’m at the freakin’ aquarium.  And Pricilla Presley is on Larry King – OMG THE HORROR!

We have a PS3 that is also a Blu-ray player.  It’s no wonder that The Dark Knight looked vastly superior to anything on TV, since that was hooked up with the proper HD cables.

Now I’m looking on Amazon for Blu-ray DVDs and I want a bunch that I already have in regular format. Firefly, Pride & Prejudice.  New Doctor Who is currently not available but I’ve signed up to be notified for when it will be.

DAMN this is gonna cost me.

Same shit, different kickass header.
