Gettin' Frisky

According to the Associated Press:

Police can now frisk you (search you) without warrant or cause. Lame. Not that I have anything to hide...I just happen to treasure the Bill of Rights and I hate seeing this happen. I am really upset at this. I am very disappointed in the Supreme Court for allowing this to happen. I think the Supreme Court are officially traitors to this nation (luckily they haven't taken too much of the first amendment away, yet). The day we give all power to the police is a bad day indeed. The police have too much power as it is...where are our rights?

Political Test


The Political Compass


I found a really cool website about determining where you fit on a political compass. I've taken many of these tests before but this one is the best. After several questions...it has you placed along a line from liberal to conservative, then on a Y-Axis of authoritarian to libertarian. It also has famous people graphed so you can see where you relate to Hitler, Stalin, Pope John Paul, George W Bush, Mugabe, Margaret Thatcher, Ghandi, etc. I did it and I am about the same as Milton Friedman...which I was excited about.

Interesting blog I found

Interesting blog I found. It's from a Ms. Pamela Gellar that wants us to join her in fighting for Israel. Her blog recently focuses on the turmoil in Israel and the effects of it all at home in the USA. I can't say I agree with her because I firmly believe they (Israel and Palestine) are both at fault for this whole mess. I'm just saddened that she has taken "Atlas Shrugged", one of the most important ideological/economic books ever written and has perverted it with propaganda. Regardless, it's a good site if you want to see pro-Israel/anti-Gaza/Hamas/Palestine/Obama info.

Resolutions a bust.

well, I already broke the first 2 out of the 3 resolutions I had this year. They were out of my reach so that's my fault for setting them. They were resolutions meant to be broken. They were...

1. break a sweat every day
2. study the scriptures for 5 minutes every day
3. return to a 34 inch waist by Dec. 31st 2009

i'll let you decide which two I didn't do. (hint: it's easy to figure it out)
