The smart way to keep people passive and obedient

My wife just sent me a very interesting quote:

"The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum." – Noam Chomsky, American linguist and U.S. media and foreign policy critic.

Isn't that American today? (Political correctness, etc...)

What do you think?

New York City is Crazy

You may recall that I believe "Texas is better than New York", well I just saw further proof that this is true.

Apparently, New York City is considering banning trans fats. My wife Jill and her friend Laura have a blog that covers Natural Family News. So I am all for supporting and promoting better health. However...

What the heck???

Do the people in New York City's government not know that this is a FREE country?

I am so glad to be a Texan, because as long as we have our shotguns nobody will try to take away our french fries...

President of Three Countries at Once?

Hey, I just read this article about a shadow government being created between the US, Mexico and Canada. It kind of makes sense to me. We should definitely consider improving our relationships with our two border countries. However, I am not sure that the methods being used don't violate our constitution (not that we pay much attention to the constitution anymore).

Anyway, the official government website is SPP.GOV. It's fairly interesting.

I wonder if I could just head up the SPP instead of becoming president of the US? Then I would be in charge of three countries!

Imagine that, the United States, Canada, and Mexico all would become...

Ant Free Countries!

Phew!

Last month I mentioned that some of Oprah's fans want her to run for President.

Well, I just read some good news...

Oprah is not running for President! Phew, I still have a chance in 2008.

Big Brother All-Stars Fun

My wife and I have a tv blog and I just wanted to let you know that if you watch Big Brother All Stars you are going to want to go see my latest post by clicking here. My wife came up with the idea for the post and I filled in the blanks and wrote it.

Hope you enjoy it...

Syria to enforce arms embargo - My official response

I just read that UN president Annan says that Syria is going to enforce the arms embargo for Hezbollah, so that arms won't cross the Syria-Lebanon border into Hezbollah hands.

Ummmm...

Doesn't Syria want to arm Hezbollah? Don't they hate Israel?

It's like something you would see in a comic strip. I can hardly believe they are actually proposing this as if it is a good idea. Wow!

If I were President, I would have to blog about this proposal, because it's so ridiculous. I think my post might go something like this:

This morning my chief of staff woke me up a little early to let me know about this new proposal from the UN and Syria. About half way through the proposal I fell out of my bed laughing hysterically.

I guess since I have a blog they must think I am a freaking idiot. I mean come on...

You want Syria to stop Hezbollah from re-arming. Might as well put Iran in charge of it.

In fact, after hearing the proposal I was so fed up with Syria I called up the Secretary of Defense to see if we could come up with a good execuse to bomb the heck out of Damascus. He said no.

Anyway, Annan if you are reading this why don't you... Oh nevermind, I am going to go get my coffee now. I will let my press secretary handle our response.

Oh, wait a second, I get it. Annan is this a UN April's fool joke? I bet that's what it is. You got me, you silly man.

Yep, if I were President I would have written about this on my blog, no doubt about it.
