Judge Rules Against California’s Same-Sex Marriage Ban – My Thoughts

Government has no business defining what marriage is or isn’t. The ruling today was a small victory for liberty! Every-time the government asserts powers they don’t have and gets in the way of a person’s life it ends badly. I think what marriage has become in this country and the current debate is a great [...]

America’s race problem?

I’m so sick of people trying to make race into an issue – when it is clearly not! Michelle Obama claimed that America is still not equal! All I can say is show me a case where someone can’t pursue their dreams because of race. Sure there will always be racist among us, but the [...]

Overhaul the political system

Our current political system is built on the goal of getting reelected. This is not only the first goal, it is the only goal of elected officials. It is just one big never ending campaign to stay in power. Our elected officials have sworn to uphold laws and preserve the Constitution, yet they do the [...]

What happened to 2009?

Time really seems to go by so fast. It seems like just yesterday was the beginning of 2009, but really it is almost over. I guess the good news is I have been staying busy, mostly with work stuff. I am finishing up a C# winforms application now, well part of it. It will be [...]
