Derek Jeter

Normally I AM one big time racist asshole. Show me someone who has a black dad and a white mom and I will show you one ugly human being who odds are comes from a home where there is no guidance and who behaves like a street rat. There are some things that just dont mix and that is black and white people having children. If I was a proud black man, I wouldnt want my child marrying a white person and reproducing in the same way if my daughter tells me she is going to marry a black man, I would be really upset.

That being said, I am a big Derek Jeter fan. Im not a Yankees fan but this is a guy I root for. There is nothing better then someone who is professional in every aspect of his life and who appreciates what he has and how he was raised. Give his parents credit for helping raise him properly. They are the exception rather then the rule in my opinion. Watching that 60 minutes interview last week was impressive. The guy does everything right all while being under the biggest sports microscope in baseball.

His personality is not really that much different then teammate Alex Rodriquez, but he is likeable because he wins with humility, is a great player, but not a superstar, and while well paid, hasnt had to deal with the criticisms that the best players on earth have to put up with which is why havent they won anything. Derek has been winning almost every year since he was a rookie. Our society loves people who do things in the clutch and Derek has done it. Therefore the jealousy is going to be at a minimum. So why do people not like Alex? Jealousy is a bitch as Derek is not half the baseball player Alex is and that says alot. I am an Alex Rodriquez fan too.

There arent many people who I would openly say I would like to be, but this is a guy who lives a life we all dream of. Keep doing what you do Derek, because you do it all at a standard very few on this earth even think of approaching.

Sean Hannity

There is nothing worse then someone who has the right message, but sounds like a douchebag delivering it. This folks is Sean Hannity. He makes me ashamed to be a Republican.

Every day he is on the radio or TV whining at the unfair attacks on Republicans or the philosophies and actions of Democrats. While he is typically on the money with what he says, he sounds like a kid who has been bullied and is whining at how unfair it is. He can attack someone like his opinion is the only one, but he cant take a response back without sounding like a baby. He talks about being a patriot and tries to be so important, but Sean, Rush Limbaugh you are not. Its time for you to go away. I dont want my message delivered by someone like you.

Being right means not acting like a little kid when someone questions what you are saying or offers an alternative opinion. Your responses are monotonous and you lack creativity when you should show some confidence. The bottom line is you suck and you need to be replaced. Neil Boortz could do your job a lot better.

Vin Scully

Growing up in San Diego, I spent most of my early youth listening to San Diego Padres games on the radio with Jerry Coleman broadcasting the game through my little AM radio. Before cable TV came out, the only way to hear anything outside of San Diego was to sneak into my parents bedroom and turn on their clock radio(someone please explain to me why even today, cheap ass clock radios can pick up AM stations out of town better then any other radio). I dont remember the first time I was flipping stations and heard Vin Scully and his broadcast partner Jerry Doggett annoucing Dodger games, but life has not been the same since.

I was just your average Southern California kid of the 70s and for some reason I was the biggest Steve Garvey fan ever(werent we all Garvey fans back then?)even though he played for the hated Dodgers. Once I realized I could listen live to how Garvey was doing rather then read the next days boxscore in the paper, I was never the same. While Jerry Coleman was great and I still to this day enjoy listening to him announce my favorite team the Padres, something about Scully made a baseball game the most memorable experience you could have.

You could smell the popcorn and hot dogs in the air and you would swear it was coming through the radio when he was talking. You wondered how an ocean breeze might feel as you sat there watching the Dodgers and Garvey play with a beachball bouncing around the stands. Or maybe it was a reminder of a sunny afternoon throwing the ball with your dad. Scullys voice seemed to create these visions and although I had never stepped foot in Dodger Stadium. I felt like I had front row tickets and was at the game with Vin being my personal announcer. No matter what was going on during the day and how upset you were, the second Scullys voice came on the air, everything was alright. He made you want a baseball game to last forever and there was nothing better then falling asleep at night to the sound of his voice.

Even today as an old man in my 30s with a stressful job and more worries then I ever thought about as a kid, I can still get a Dodger broadcast on the satellite or on the internet and there is Vin, still doing his thing. The great memories of being a kid just come back like they were yesterday. As I have solidified my love for the Padres and hatred for the Dodgers, I can still listen to a Dodger game and feel relaxed. Vin can even make the most loyal Padres fan think of possibly rooting for the Dodgers. If Vin is happy I am happy.

Vin's going to be retiring soon and the names of Hee Sop Choi and Cesar Izturis just dont have that Vin Scully Dodger ring to it like Garvey, Lopes, Russell, and Cey did, but even though the Dodgers dont have that unattainable aura anymore, Vin Scully still does. The goose bumps will always be there listening to him call a game and only someone like that can make memories of the past seem so vivid many years later. Vin Scully is baseball and I thank him for the memories he has given me and for that ability to still make me relax while reminding me that life isnt that bad all while announcing a Dodger game. Excuse me while I go get my AM radio.

George W. Bush

Whats a blog based on insulting others without having the President of the USA analyzed. But alas, this might be one post where I dont insult someone. That will come later with John Kerry or Ted Kennedy or some up and coming welfare supporting leader.

I will say I am a Bush supporter and still support him today even though our country continues to appear on the news like it is going to crap. For all the insults about his intelligence or lack thereof, the repeated no WMD argument by Democrats, there is no one who wants or wanted to be President who would have handled the crisis we have faced as a nation since he took office better then Bush has.

The minute he took office he faced something not many other Presidents have ever faced, the legitimacy of his victory in the election. What a way to start a job. As much as I hate Bill Clinton and would rather see almost anyone else be President, I never stood up and said he did not win the election and therefore should not be President. Bush faced this situation with class unlike Al Gore, who is one of the worst human beings on the planet. No matter what you say about what went on in Florida, Bush was elected through the proper channels and Im pretty sure he got more votes in Florida then Gore, even if it was only five more votes because a thousand morons couldnt punch a ballot and voted for Pat Buchanon when they meant to vote for Gore. Sorry, but we cant go back and ask someones intentions after they voted because the result was close and didnt go their way. How many recounts do you need?

Once Bush was in office, he hardly has his feet wet and 9/11 happens. The nation rallies around him and no matter what lead to 9/11, and whose fault it was, Bush did the right thing by responding quickly and decisively taking out Afghanistan and putting pressure on Saddam. We decided to go in to Iraq because of the perceived fear of WMDs and the fact Saddam failed to allow inspectors in to his country as ordered by the United Nations, the biggest waste of money the world knows(Woodrow Wilson must be turning over in his grave seeing how it is run today). Everyone supported the intelligence and the United Nations sanctions including the Democrats who were suddenly patriotic as long as they didnt have to make the final decision to invade and take real action. The intelligence was wrong and no WMDs were found. That is not Bushes fault but boy could others turn on him for political gain and now we have protesters like we are in another Vietnam.

Saddam was someone who played with the minds of the UN and the west like he was this threat when he probably didnt have five missiles in his arsenal, much less some WMDs. But considering his past actions of gassing his own people, we couldnt be sure what he had. If he had allowed the UN in as required, maybe things would have been different so the invasion of Iraq was his fault, not something created by Bush for whatever argument you want to make on a particular day. This was not a war about oil or Haliburton or whatever crap the Democrats want to say.

I like Bush because he has the balls to stick by his guns even when things get tough and his own supporters are abandoning him. He knows the war on Terrorism is one like no other started by the terrorists when they flew planes into the World Trade Center. While no one wants to lose young men to war, the amount lost to date is really minor compared to prior wars fought for our freedom. If we dont think this war is about our freedom and way of life as much as WW 2 then we are blind to the realities of the 21st century. If we stop fighting wars because people who volunteered to serve might die, then we might as well give Osama Bin Laden the keys to the White House. Times change, enemies change, and the wars must be fought. Considering there hasnt been a terrorist attack on US soil since 9/11 by these Muslim assholes, something is being done right. Do opponents suddenly support Bush again if another 9/11 happens? Whats next, another terrorist attack and Bush is blamed for that because he needed to unite the country? Bush cant win if there is an attack or if there isnt. Thinking these lazy ass Iraqis, who wouldnt fight for their own freedom or stand up to terror when they can get the USA to do it, are going to create a Democracy is far fetched, but Bush cant say that because even he has to be politically correct sometimes. He needs a base to fight this war and the promise of democracy is not really a reality until the people of Iraq stand up in bigger numbers and fight for their freedom. I would rather a war be in Baghdad then New York City if we have to fight it.

In todays world, you cannot have a pussy for a President when it comes to Foreign Policy and Bush, while he could be doing some things better, is doing better then any Democrat who might be President.

As for the domestic front, the economy is good, the jobs are good, mortgage rates are low, yet all we hear about is the high gas prices. What a joke. Yeah we would like to have $1.25 gallon gas, but if it isnt so what. What if the gas was low and the mortgage rates were 8% like they were just a few years ago? People would be paying more for housing then they would be saving in gas and many who have bought houses in the past four years because of the low rates would still be living in an apartment and building no equity, not to mention not living the dream of owning a home. But we dont hear about all the people buying houses who couldnt have afforded it years ago. We just hear about gas. When statistics on sales of new and existing housing seem to be going up, something is being done right in the areas that matter.

The bottom line is Bush stands for the beliefs that keep this country strong domestically and overseas and my freedom is important. What others say who live in other countries yet still want to move here does not matter. These people who use race to blame Bush for their problems have issues that go beyond a hurricane in Louisiana. For Bush to put up with all of this crap and continue forward means he will have my continued support. The hatred and jealousy that is manifested by people through the 24hr news and blogging world only makes what he does appear more visible. Its about time those who support him stand up and say so and President Bush, I have your back. Keep up the good work and dont let these clueless idiots bring you down. Your supporters know what you are doing is in the best interests of our country and you have saved more lives by taking action then those that have been lost fighting a war that needs to be fought.

Deepak and Satish Kalpoe

Imagine living in Aruba or some other tourist dump and every week a new set of young impressionable teenagers are dropped off to have fun they couldnt have back home, to indulge in the same kind of fun they have always been having without their parents knowing, or to be exposed to things only told to them in words by their friends. You are a couple of sewer apes who hang out with a Dutch kid chasing all the new arrivals hoping to have some adult fun with some young girls impressed by a foreign accent. If you cant get laid in this environment, you certainly cant get laid anywhere.

What on the surface seems like a great life is really your own private hell of frustration and insecurity. You follow this spoiled rich kid around and drive him from place to place while he hooks up with new girls every week. He thinks you are pieces of garbage whose parents probably clean his parents house but pretends to be your friend because he needs a chauffer. You laugh and giggle while he fondles and probably date rapes hottie after redneck hottie. But the end result is this goofball scores while you go home and spank your monkey. It has to be frustrating to know you are from some piece of crap country like Surinham who held the door open for everyone else while they passed out looks and personality. The frustration builds up and then Natalie Holloway shows up for a weekly visit.

The cycle of your young life is repeating itself again but this time something goes wrong. You cant handle it. Another girl who claims to be a virgin(wink) starts giving it up to your buddy faster then he can say Heil Hitler in an authentic German accent. You are kids in a candy store yet you cant score a piece of gum muchless this fine piece of white chocolate. It finally gets to you that you are losers and you cant be reminded of it anymore. If you are failing with the ladies now, wait until you get older and your looks go to crap and you really cant get a woman because you have the manners and personality of a couple of gorillas. You dont think of this stuff for the first time today, but for whatever reason, you are not going to watch some ugly white kid, who is still better looking then you, hook up again while you are getting nothing. So poor Natalie gets killed for being the girl that reminds you of all of your failures.

After you kill and rape her, your buddy is so cocky that he gets his playboy dad involved to help dispose of the body. The dad does not want his son to lose the next 40 years of a life of being a philanderer and teenage girl dominator so he helps cut up the body and dispose of it. You all laugh when those idiots from Texas come with their fancy compasses to help look for the body. What are they going to find?

The bottom line is you knew that for all your failings, as long as you were associated with a prick with a powerful dad you could pretty much do anything you wanted. Your behavior after this story makes it even more obvious you were part of the raping and killing of this girl. Your involvement may be unproven, but your guilt is known.

Introduction

Now that everyone else seems to have a blog, I figured why not create one for myself. This blog is going to be used to comment on people I see or read about in every day life. These people could be newsmakers, politicians, professional ass kisser/busy body types, and may even include the occasional person whose life or actions bring out the jealous side of me because they seem to have everything going for them. The comments may be about the person in general or they may be the result of something they specifically did. If a person is picked to be the subject of a post, it is most likely because I feel the need to insult them. My posts may be racist or politically incorrect, but I dont care, I just tell it like it is. Feel free to email your comments or suggest someone you would like for me to post about.
