Fifty-nine bodies have been found buried in a series of pits in the northern Mexico state of Tamaulipas, near the site where suspected drug gang members massacred 72 migrants last summer, officials said.

Security forces investigating reports that a passenger bus had been hijacked in the area conducted a raid that netted 11 suspected kidnappers and freed five kidnap victims.

Then they made a grisly discovery – a total of eight pits, containing a total of 59 corpses. One of the pits held 43 dead.

This is the kind of violence that is crossing the US border.

OK, here we are again.  We are being crushed by oil prices that will soon cause gas to be above $4.00 a gallon and the dipsticks in Washington still believe we can replace it with wind and solar!  Let them explain to the public how wind and solar power can make the following items that are currently made from oil. This is only a partial list. Over half of every barrel of oil goes to make things like the following. (more…)

Do you think Charlie Sheen has it all together? Everytime I see him on an interview it seems like he is going into the deeper end of the pool.I think he really believes everyone else is to blame but him. He may have one of the best sitcoms on TV but if he really is going to try to fight his network it seems like a crazy thing to do. (more…)

Well Obama’s State of the Union Address was no surprise. His naive knowledge toward politics continues. If he is as smart as many people think, one would assume he would have learned a few things about governing by now. His thinking that having Republicans and Democrats sit together will encourage more compromise is just insane. That rates right up there with his apology tour –  thinking the world would love us if we just apologized for all the horrible things we have done. How did the work for you President Obama?

Why did it take him two years to to realize that the voters expected “shared governing” by both parties. Oh that’s right, for the first two years he didn’t even have to talk to Republicans, and he didn’t. But there was an election last November and some things have changed. Unfortunately he still has no ideas on how to run a country.

 What did he really say in his State of the Union Address? (more…)

I wanted to inform you that this is a new blog and is not completely set up yet. I am working on it on a daily basis. There will be a lot of great things to come, so please stay tuned…………………………

Soon there will be an email sign-up so everyone can post and let us all know your thoughts.

What do you think about smoking?  Do you smoke. Are you OK with all the smoking bans we have around the country, or do you feel those bans take away some of our liberties?  I was wondering, for the people that don’ t smoke do they smoke have the right to not smell other people’s smoke. Do they have the right to tell people where they can smoke?

Where should smoking be allowed – in bars but not restaurants.  What about sporting events?  Maybe only outdoor events?  Does the smoke in your apartment bother people in other apartments?  Do you care or is this just a fact of life?

I personally do not smoke–never have.  I don’t like to smell cigerette smpke expecially when I am eating. But I think other people have the right to smoke. I thought no smoking places in restaurants worked pretty well.  No most eating establishments have banned it alltogether.  Do you have any thoughts on this?
