Peace of Mind

With all the talking heads in the media spouting off inaccuracies these days it’s hard to know who you can trust. I am a disabled Veteran who risked his life for this country. I was sent to Iraq to fight an unjust war that robbed me of my peace of mind and physical well-being, and every night I am awakened by the atrocities that I was forced to carry out by the U.S. government. Right now, poor people are being convinced to vote against the very programs that allow them to feed their children. Teenagers just barely out of highschool are being sent to war under the promise that the military will take care of them- when the reality is once they are released back into the civilian world they will have to fight for years to finally receive the benefits they deserve. In this country, we are given two choices: vote for a Democrat, or vote for a Republican. And we call this a democracy? Vote for the rich or vote for…the rich? That’s why I created this blog- so we will all know who’s lying now.

Well What to Talk About.


                So I know that it takes a long time to get followers or readers so ill just talk about anything until I figure out what way this will go.  Anyways I love playing World of Warcraft well I use to play it a lot until I had my twins, people in that game talk politics a lot it’s kind of funny to just read what people are talking about.  It gets to the point where people hate to be wrong so they will start to make up stuff so there point is valid and I think that’s what happens in today’s politics.  We have politicians that will lie, cheat, steal and maybe even kill; well you never know I’m sure some have thought about it.  I think one thing that people need to practice is being humble and being a good listener, sometimes people just want to talk and for someone to listen to them even if they are full of shit.  There have been times I have listened to people talk and I know they are blowing smoke I just nod my head and smile because I don’t want to get in a debate with them.  You just can’t argue with good liars because for one they don’t want to be proved wrong and when you do prove them wrong they won’t admit it, so it’s just better left alone.  I found the only way you can get to those people is by the internet or TV because they don’t have to be faced by someone; they can read or watch the fact that they are full of shit.  There is a really good web site that people should use when they are not 100 percent sure of something about politics http://www.politifact.com/ .  I found that when I use this site while watching fox news it find a lot of things they say to be FALSE so that right there should be a hint to find a different news channel, because some of these host can be very manipulative.  Anyways until next time I have a very short attention span and I also hate to write just sometimes things piss me off so bad that this just helps me vent.
