Attorney General Eric Holder is a big fat bleeping idiot

It's true you know…Only complete dunces like Eric Holder and the rest of the Obama regime could force me out of retirement to blog politics. Why, you may ask? Okay, I know only a liberal would ask that question, but I digress…

FROM THE AP: The Obama administration sued Arizona on Tuesday, arguing that the state is impinging on federal responsibilities for dealing with immigration.

Well, it doesn't take a PhD to understand that if the Feds were doing their flipping jobs in the first place, Arizona wouldn't have to do it for them. Duh!

Furthermore, this is the same Eric Holder who said that the Arizona law was racist and that he was considering bringing a lawsuit against the Arizona legislature without ever having read the law. This is coming from the highest law enforcement officer in the land? That he's considering bringing suit on the basis of his assumptions about a law he hasn't even read? Of course, now we know the man is serious, even if functionally insane. Since Tuesday last, the feds did in fact sue. Is this what we're to expect from your henchmen Comrade Obama? That your goons will go after any state which refuses to breathe the tainted air inside your liberal bubble? This isn't getting way out of hand; it's already there…like so far off the map, we're talking another galaxy here. (Sorry about the mixed metaphors, but I've just finished watching the entire series of the original Star Trek.) Anyway, I just feel so privileged that I can watch the buffoonery of the Obama administration from the comfort of my captain's chair, parked squarely in front of my computer. I mean, good God America- how long must we endure this complete moronathon in the guise of "good" government?

If that weren't bad enough, he's at it again! Now, Eric Holder is threatening another suit based on racial profiling. According to the AP:

The Justice Department hasn't ruled out filing a second lawsuit challenging Arizona's immigration law if evidence shows racial profiling at work, Attorney General Eric Holder says.

Once again, this is just more of the Obama administration's moonbattyness to the inth degree. The law is written to inoculate against racial profiling. But don't take my word for it; see for yourself:

For any lawful contact made by a law enforcement official or a law enforcement agency…where reasonable suspicion exists that the person is an alien who is unlawfully present in the United States, a reasonable attempt shall be made, when practicable, to determine the immigration status of the person…

Emphasis mine

The operative words here are "lawful" and  "contact." Lawful contact means that the officer is already in the act of detaining the individual because they broke the law. This language was crafted  explicitly as an antidote against racial profiling. That means that either Eric Holder is an incompetent dingbat who still hasn't read the law and thus has no flipping idea what the hell he's talking about, or…he has finally read the law and is incapable of understanding it, in which case, I stand by my original assertion that the man is a big fat bleeping idiot,  intent on steamrolling Arizona's right to protect its citizens.

 
Sorry, but I AM better than you…

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal,"-Declaration of Independance, Contental Congress, July 4, 1776

" The legs of the lame are not equal: so is a parable in the mouth of fools." -Proverbs 26:7

So which is it? Are we all equals, or aren't we?

On the one hand, the United States was founded on the principle that all men were created equal. On the other, God tells us that some are not equal to others. So which is it?

I say we aren't equal- and that it isn't a bad thing. I say that I am in fact better than a crackhead or a murderer or a rapist serving time in prison. After all, I'm not in prison, I haven't done drugs, murdered or raped anyone. At the other end of the spectrum, I'm better at reaching for things off the top of the refrigerator than my wife, or anyone under 6 feet tall. Simply because I'm taller.

Better is a fact of life, yet people seem to get really upset about it.

I was watching Ghost Hunters Academy this week, and I was quite heartened by contestant Eric Baldino's remarks after he lost the contest to contest Adam Berry. He wasn't upset at all. He thought that Adam did a better job, and he (Eric) knew he had done the best he could. That's sportsmanship. That's something we should be teaching our children.

Instead, my kid often comes home from school telling me about being taught that no one is better than anyone else. The liberals like to proclaim that as well, handing out our tax money to deadbeats that won't even try to get a job. They refuse to accept the fact that people can be better than others. They stigamtize "better".

There's nothing wrong with someone being better than you. What's important is that you try your best. Like Mr. Baldino.

I'm better at getting things off tall shelves than my wife. And given her gun-phobia, I'm a better marksman than her. I'm also better at eating steak. But she has a better singing voice than me. And she surely dances better than me (not that I ever dance). The point is, why do so many people feel compelled to bring down the accomplishments of others? Why is it such a big deal that someone is better than you?

As parents, we should want our kids to be better than us. I'm thrilled when my daughter does better than me at a video game. Or that she's a better artist than me. I take pride in her accomplishment, despite the fact I have absolutely nothing to with it- it's something she has done entirely on her own.

Fanatics enjoy the abilities of professional atheletes, who are of course better than they are at playing sports. Politicians always like to throw around that they are better than their opponents. So why do we teach children that they are equals? Why do we try and convince men and women they are equal?

God (not Darwin) created us all equal, but he also gave us different gifts, and we make different choices that make us better than others in some respects.

While I know I'm overall a better person than a murderer serving time, I have very little doubt that there isn't something they're better at than me- like maybe playing basketball, lifting weights or fashioning weapons out of toothbrushes. But like Mr. Baldino, I should be a good sport- whether I'm better, or my opponent is. Better is a fact of life. We should all take pride in accomplishment- whether it's ours, or someone else's.

So kudos to you Mr. Baldino, for being a good "loser". And kudos to Adam Berry for being a gracious winner and not rubbing it in anyone's face. Unlike so many reality shows, Ghost Hunters Academy has set a positive example many of us would do well to investigate.

All you idiots out there with fireworks, itching to make some noise- wait until Saturday. Some of us have work tomorrow morning.

I mean, cmon! It's Thursday night, I'm sound asleep by 10:30 PM, and BOOM! I get woke up by frickin' cannon fire next door. What the hell?!

First off, things like roman candles are only legal if set off by an adult on their private property. Standing in the middle of the road to amuse your guests is illegal. And it pisses me off. I was trying to sleep.

You want blow your fingers off and make some noise? Awesome. But let's wait until Saturday and Sunday to do it it. Independance Day is July 4th, you dumbasses.
