Sorry Mr. President, I know it isn't turning out like you were hoping it would!

I talked to a Realtor today and we were talking about how they are not supposed to mention the denomination of churches in the neighborhood of houses that they show. I guess somehow just the mention of a church or the wrong type of church will offend a potential homebuyer and hurt their feelings. They also aren’t supposed to say that a certain school district is good or bad. If the buyers ask them if there are any white people, black people, Chinese people, Jewish people, Catholics, etc in the neighborhood; they are not allowed to say.

I knew this already and it doesn’t really phase me anymore. The crazy thing that she told me today was that, they are not really supposed to call a room a family room. Why? Well, because she said “in reality what makes a family?” She said that not all people have a family or have the typical family and we shouldn’t call the room a family room, because it may bring up some bad feelings for the buyer!

Holy shit, are you f-ing kidding me? I mean really, are you kidding me? This kind of fucked up bullshit thinking is the reason that I would like to move either to a far off island with only my family and a few select people or live in the mountains like Grizzly Adams!

So we have an economy that is in the tank, we have politicians that are doing their best to take whatever they can from people that work for a living and give it to the “less fortunate”. By the way, “less fortunate” is a code word for lazy ass, something for nothing, give me everything for free, because I ain’t gettin out of bed and working for shit, low lives. What the less fortunate don’t get, the politicians keep for themselves. If anyone disagrees with that, just check out how much of your pay goes to taxes and tell me that you are ok with this. This is called Socialism, and it has never worked and never will! If you want a good book to read, check out Ayn Rand’s, “Atlas Shrugged”. You’ll see a lot of similarities in it with the world today.

I know that there are people that need our help and I think that we should give it to them. I just don’t believe that a perfectly healthy adult should get money, healthcare, etc handed to them for free because they don’t want to work. Do you know that there are third generation welfare recipients? This means that this person doesn’t have a job, their parents didn’t ever have a job, and their grandparents never had a job! Never in three generations had a job! I’m not making this up, so this is the “less fortunate” that I am referring to.

Besides the economy, we have people that hate us as a country and are working around the clock to figure out ways to kill us. Anyone remember 9/11? These people have nothing but hatred in them and we are not their friends. Of course there are a million other things that I could talk about that we all wish would get better. But instead of working to get it better, we are worried about hurting someones feelings about a family room! Unbelievable. There is nothing else in the world to do but worry about hurting someones feelings? We can’t talk about god and the church, some schools won’t say the pledge of allegiance, we’re not allowed to say Merry Christmas. Holy hell!

Well, I am sorry for the rant tonight and I know that there are a lot of great things going on in the world also. I just can’t believe that our founding fathers fought for our freedom so we can get in trouble for talking about god or telling someone your house has a nice family room! I guess the government is going to have to change the name of the office for “Family Services” to “Services for people that have kids, possibly three or four from different relationships, but don’t really have that family feel because your baby mama is in jail or daddy done left us”

Before I get emails from people that I just pissed off about how I don’t care about the less fortunate and that I’m rude, it’s not true. I am very caring about people and their situations. I don’t want to see anyone struggling with their life. The problem is that, because a small percentage of people don’t agree with everything that anyone says, we have to walk on glass and watch what we say. Get over it people, go try out another country and tell them that your feelings are hurt because a guy passed you on the street and said, “Merry Christmas!” It’s time for us to stand up for what we believe and quit cowering because a small group of pain in the asses might not agree with our opinions. Talk to you later, I’m going to relax in my family room.
