Ron Paul wins straw poll at CPAC conference.

Glenn Beck made a good speech there as well. He was discussing history, the Constitution and what was intended by the founding fathere.

Dr. Paul is spot on in my opinion. His views are different from other conservatives because he is "conservative" about getting troops involved in foreign conflicts. To me, a conservative foreign policy is one where we maintain our power, militarily, but do not go around the world threatening, invading or lecturing other nations. Iran is a case in point. Our condescending attitude only makes them more belligerant. It is a matter of national pride for them.

We should work with the Russians and others to reduce nuclear stockpiles. Lead by example. Also, and I've said it before, Israel has quite the nuclear deterrent.

I'm as angry as the rest of you!

Two incidences of angry (white) males dominate the news lately. First, a doctor affiliated with Porter Hospital in Denver goes into detox treatment at another area hospital and stabs a nurse. Secondly, a guy in Austin Texas flies his small plane into an IRS office there after setting his house ablaze.

Firstly, I hope the nurse is o.k. and that Dr. Holder gets treatment, gets his sanity back and apologizes to that nurse. A lot of nurses have taken too much shit off of doctors for too long. Second, two people were taken to an Austin hospital and one person was still missing the last I heard. I hope they find the person alive and that everyone recovers. Thanks, asshole for causing suffering and wasting our tax dollars to have the fucking building rebuilt. Hope you rot in hell!

Yes, I'm angry at a lot of things in society. It's all going downhill. But people lashing out at innocent people is no good. For me, it's living each day at a time and trying to get the most out of life. I hope not to die having a legacy of doing something evil like this. Think of all the bad Karma I will have to deal with... I am sure I have enough to get rid of already.
