I'll Never Understand Some Things
Instead of a "normal" news round-up, I'm going to point out some stories that highlight the fact that I live in my own little rose-colored world, I choose to be annoyingly naive about the stupidity in the non-rose-colored world around me, and I'm perfectly happy with that naivety.
Here are some things I'll always wonder and never really understand...
Here are some things I'll always wonder and never really understand...
- Why do liberals think that they can guilt us into thinking we're evil when we're not and shove their (false) belief systems down our throats and into our minds? (They're trying to do it at the grade school level, too... "The Unbearable Whiteness of Being"??? well, yeah... if you're out of sunscreen... And don't even get me started on the "let's embrace Islam" movement... there is a reason we homeschool, you know)
- Why does everything have to be about race?
- Why did it take so long for him to lose his job?
- Where did common sense disappear to?
- How did this guy get elected to public office to begin with? And is he really qualified to question the President's mental health?
- Why can't it just be that she'd be a crappy president and not about her being female? (Then again, they'd all be a crappy president, but you know what I mean.)
- Politicians just can't resist a chance to tax something, can they?
- Why did it take Bush so long to find his snark?
- Why does it always have to be about global warming? Especially when it isn't.
- Does everyone have to have such thin skin?
- What is the deal with parents trying to turn their little girls into tramps???)
- Then again, why to parents let their kids play around in places where the bad guys hang out?
- Why doesn't he just write a big ol' check to the government and assuage his guilt?
- How is it that the economy stinks?
- Why do college kids not take advantage of opportunities and instead blow it?
- Why do liberals try to mask their desire to punish the wealthy (for being wealthy) with tax hikes they say will "raise funds" when a brief study of taxation shows that lower taxes being in more income?
- When did we become such a nanny state that a pickle fight became a crime?
- Why do I chuckle at the (non-life-threatening) misfortune of others, especially when they're shot by their dog?
- Does anyone else see the disconnect of a church dissing Halloween in a country where they celebrate Día de los Muertos? (Notice that they didn't endorse Día de los Muertos, but they didn't condemn it, either.)
