Rhettorical

The rantings, views and commentary of a right-winged criminal justice student on current events, politics, law, and even life. The goal of this blog is to allow the writer to vent on articles and experiences that make him angry and to open up discussions in a hostile atmosphere. So please sit back and relax as I convert you to the dark side.

Name:
Location: Kansas, United States

I'm a single 23 year-old Christian (non-denom) male from an undisclosed location in Kansas. I am in the process of furthering my education and hopefully starting up a career in law enforcement.

O'Reilly....

I am not a fan of Bill O'Reilly, in fact, I rather despise him. On some issues he seems too middle of the road. What he said about blogging really ticked me off. And the way he acts he is so full of himself, like Moore and Limbaugh. (I do like Limbaugh's bashing of people, though.)

Well It is reported now that he may have sexually harrassed a fellow employee. I'd like to see how this goes.

I need to see this....

Apparantly The History Channel has did a major program on the crash of TWA Flight 800. I was pretty big on a lot of conspiracy theory stuff. (Sone true, some false.) And this here was really in the gray area. The government's side never really made sense but with exception of For The People by Chuck Harder I could never find out anything definitive about it.

What Liberal Bias part 23847573734756

I find it funny how many blogs out there comment on liberal bias, except for the elites, hollyweirders, or tree huggers, almost anyone out there admits there is a great bias in our public media.

And just when you think more couldn't be written on the subject. A new and unshocking discovery comes out of the woodwork.


And this shocks, who?

AWB BAN

I overheard some friends who recently attended a gun show stating that prices are about as high as ever for high capacity mags. As I said in a earlier post they can't make mags overnight. And since they had to create and store a buttload of mags before the ban to profit on it afterward, the manufacturers probably want to wait a while longer to see if they can recover storage fee's for the past ten years.

I know, I know, always the pessimist.

More Media Bias

A little netscape news article takes a stab at Bush.

Continue to allow more of taxpayers' income to be taxed at 10 percent, the lowest rate, for six years.

Oh! We can't have that. Congress "allowing" the people to keep more money. Actually, if it is the lowest in six years that means Clinton raised taxes. He probabbly did so to support his wife's failed social pet projects.

Retain for four years a provision giving married couples relief from the so-called marriage penalty.

The bias here is the "so-called" part. They are just giving a negative twist to a negative term associated with taxes. Sorry, a double negative doesn't make a positive.

Bill Maher had a interesting comment on terminology a few years ago. (He is one who supports stuff like Estate Tax.) I don't have it memorized word for word, but I do recall him saying something like:

The American public have such a dim view of politics. Someone comes out with the estate tax and everyone supports it. Then one senator comes up with some catch phrase like "Death Tax" and everyone turns against it.

I agree with him on this. If they hate the legislation why does it pass in the first place. I hate the dreaded death tax but everyone allowed it to pass because it would give more social programs more money and should only affect the rich. (Not affect everyone, which it does.) If all it takes is a catch phrase to change people's minds than a large sad chunk of the voting public are an insiped group of high school-popularity-contest-following morons! I wonder if calling my voter base morons will hurt my chance for running for office?



Missing In Action

Sorry about the long delay. A power surge from evil big $$power company$$ had taken me offline for a while. But I'll be back in action and hopefully better at keeping up on updates.
