So I spent that last week with my extended family. My family is so conservative that my aunt who believes in an alternate lifestyle, which lifestyle usually calls for being liberal, is still conservative. We even watched the famous Rush speech at CPAC together and she was always making Obama jokes. If somebody needed something and didnt know how to get it they were told to ask Obama because he would get it for them. Somebody need money, ask Obama. It was fun though I almost feel less conservative around my family because they are so conservative.
Side note: I need to find where I can get copies of speeches given at CPAC. If anyone knows please tell me. I might just have to purchase it. But for anybody that has not heard Rush's speech I urge you to read it. You should be able to find it, possibly on his website. Someday I will be able to afford to go to CPAC and be in VA when its occurring.
Anyways so lets see if anything good is going on in the political scene....
Two Democratic senators have said that they will vote against the spending bill being proposed because of the wasteful spending included. Apparently Congress is once again adding too much pork barrel spending. CNN gives the details. Though if you look closely at this site Taxpayers for Common Sense one of those senators has requested some pork barrel spending. Haha. Good for McCain though. He requested none. Still happy to see that at least one Democrat that still believes in earmarks. What type of defense is saying that is was submitting more than a year ago. Get rid of it. More than a year ago you make not have known a depression was beginning to occur. Why not fix the spending and use it in ways that will help the economy. Why get ourselves into deeper debt? Things can be overturned. Earmarks can be removed. And why are the people that spend so much time complaining about Bush's budget and our debt going to spend billions of more money than he ever did. Someone please explain this to me? I don't care what Bush did at this point. We were not having the same economic crisis then. I am not saying what Bush did was right. I am saying, why are we making it worse. Why are we spending billions more?
On a happier note, I want to state again that I love Glen Beck and this looks interesting. You are not alone looks like it could be interesting. Perhaps we should all tune in.
For once China has something right. They are increasing their military spending. Why cant America get on that band wagon. Why do I feel that our military has a potential to be screwed in the coming years. No wonder people get scared of China. We continually allow them to slowly catch up. Hopefully we will still have the best military ever after the next four years. Normally I would not even notice China's spending but we don't exactly have a president whose loyal to the military. But really I just thought it was a random article so I had to write something about it.
I think two subjects I want to write about soon is why i believe in conservatism and about liberals getting defensive by our attacks when they attacked us the same way for the past 8 years. They are on my mind but its late and I need sleep.
