The Mark Sanford "stimulate my package" trip to Argentina.

At one time I believed that my thought processes and problem solving skills were pretty good. Lately however I keep reading and seeing things that makes me question my thinking. Or perhaps it is just the spin doctors at work. I am starting to think public relations is one of the fields that there seems to be endless opportunities.

I would like to get one thing straight from the start.

I have been a registered Republican all my life. I voted in Republican primaries, not Democrats. I always thought the Democrats were too liberal. I was more conservative. I never liked the way the word "Democrat" sounded. I have been

a moderate middle of the road Republican. Since George Dubbaya was elected I have been nervous about the direction they are heading. In the last eight years things have deteriorated. Maybe the GOP needed a wake up call. Maybe they need a few years of Obama.

Perhaps they will have an "eppifory in their strawtiggery".

I think the Republican party, or at least their spokesbaffoon Rush Limbaugh, have lost touch with reality. Today he accuses Obama of being the reason that Gov. Duffus of South Carolina scurried off to Argentina for a while. He was so stressed out that his state would have to accept billions of dollars that he went to visit his girl friend in Argentina for stress release.

Rush, Old Buddy, I used to listen to you. I would still listen to William F. Buckley if he were alive. He was an articulate spokesman for conservative issues and values.

You are a babbler. Does your brain know what your mouth is saying?

You have had eight years of basking in the wake of Dubbaya's flotsam and jetsam.

Now that he is gone you suddenly know how to straighten out this country and what should be done to correct Obama's numerous mistakes.

Anyone that takes you seriously is obviously not the sharpest knife in the drawer. You are the Nancy Grace of politics.

The spin doctors for our Governor: He went for a walk on the Appalachian Trail and he bumped his head. He woke up in Argentina in some girl's bed. yeah.....that's what happen. Argentina...yeah! We will send that up the flag pole and see who salute it. The "Mark Sanford stimulate my package trip" to Argentina.

Rush, that would have been more believable.

I can't stand Al Franken, but he was right.

And Mark Sanford is a skinny idiot. It's stimulus package, not stimulate my package.

Photo right: That is where I bumped my head. I remember that tree.

Problem solving

Simple Solutions: One of my internet friends sent  solutions for some of our current problems.

We seem to be having a few problems in this country lately: illegal immigration, hurricane recovery, alligators attacking people in Florida...

Not me, I concentrate on solutions for the problems. It's a win-win situation

•  Dig a moat the length of the mexican border.
  
• Send the dirt to New Orleans to raise the level of the levies.
• Put the Florida alligators in moat along the Mexican border.

Do You have another problem? How about :

• Cows
• The Constitution
• The Ten Commandments

Cows: is it just me, or does any else find it amazing that during the mad cow epedemic our government could track a single cow, born in Canada almost 3 years ago, right to the stall where she slept in the state of Washington?  And they tracked her calves to their stalls. But they were unable to locate 11 million illegal aliens wandering around the country that could speak very little or no English. Perhaps we should give every one of them a cow.

Constitution: They keep talking about drafting a constitution for Iraq.  Why don't we just give them ours?  It was written by a lot of real smart people.  It worked for over 200 years, and we are not using it any more.

The 10 Commandments: The reason we cannot have the 10 commandments posted in the courthouse is this: You cannot post "thou shall not steal, thou shall not lie, thou shall not commit adultery" in a building full of lawyers, judges, and politicians.  It creates a hostile work environment for them.

My personal thoughts: Sometimes the solutions seem so simplistic.

People are getting laid off left and right as the infrastructure of this country crumbles.

fixit!!: hire the laid off people to fix the infrastructure. I am sure there are a few people who could use the work and are very highly skilled.

The banks are in deep trouble because they made stupid mortgages.

fixit!!!: You don't have to a financial genius to figure out that all these foreclosures are not good for the banks or the homeowners. Why don't the financial institutions and the home owners make a deal with the aid of the government.  How about a make loans to people who are qualified and not with those reverse legalese trimester balloon type upside down transbiforated convoluted mortgage note from the National Bank of Confusion.

fixit!!!: Wall Street ripoff artist. They shouldn't be in Jail. They should be under the jail. (Thank you Dr. Phil).  All their possession should be confiscated and sold. That is a good start.

 Just a thought: How about this. Their first year in prison they could live in a cardboard box and eat dog food and have Rush Limbaugh tapes playing over the radio 24/7.

Oh, I'm sorry. Yes, listening to Rush 24/7 is cruel and unusual punishment.  

How about if I throw in Bill Reilly on weekends?
