Uninformed Opinions

Today is the first in what may become a semi-regular feature here at TICS: Uninformed Opinions. I'll take a few current topics in which I have gained all my information from radio news breaks and comic books and make sweeping, heartless, black and white judgements. Enjoy.

War Protesting Mom
Ok, ya gotta feel for her with her son being killed and all but... Come on, now she wants Israel out of Palestine, the Prez impeached, more cheese on her burgers and equal rights for Martians. The media is playing this women like a fiddle. Hey, there are a 1000 times this many people protesting gay marriage, abortion, prayer in school, and the posting of the 10 commandments everyday and they don't get this kind of coverage! A headline yesterday said she's splitting the country. The only thing I see her splitting is what's left of her family. The country could care less.

Gas Prices
What are we Honduras? Is it just coincidence that record gas prices come with an oilman in the White House? Come on we can land on the freaking moon but we can't run engines on water or broccoli? Glad it's summer and I have a motorcycle.

Israel and the Gaza Strip
Hey, your elected governement says it's time to get out and give peace another shot. You lose sympathy when you become the terrorist and show the same disrespect for law the Pallestinians do. You were supposed to be the good guys. However, if this doesn't bring peace? It's time to make it.

BTK Killer Trial
Still just makes me want a sandwich from Burger King.

T.O. and the Eagles
If you could give professional athletes a bad name this guy would do it. You're upset your coach told you to shut-up? Fans have been telling you that for years! Ahh, just three words for ya T.O: Career Ending Injury.

Now if you want to reply and you're really informed on these issues then start your own blog. However, if you're uninformed and still need to give an opinion feel free to reply. Maybe if we do enough of these we can land a job with a major news network?



P.S. Today's my 15th wedding anniversary. The first 14 didn't work out so well so here's hoping. I love ya dear, wherever you may be!

From what I understand War-Protesting-Mom has already met face-to-face once. So one of us is really uninformed. GREAT!

I think the War-protesting-Mom new reality show is going to be totally lame unless they recruit no talent has-been B-list celebrities to sit and protest with her.

Or it could be American Idol style where they have different protetors compete to see who has the most moving protest. (Randy: Yo' dog, if I was the President, I totally would've met with you, dog. Simon: You think that whining and sniveling is going to change the world? You'd be lucky if they didn't release dogs on you. Paula: Wow. I got goose bumps. I feel tingly. Is the room spinning?)

About that meeting with the President:

Cindy "Sheehan has not gotten her meeting with the president in Texas. Bush's supporters note that he met with her in 2004, and that she had nice things to say about him at the time. That's half of the story.

"Indeed, after that 2004 meeting, Sheehan was quoted as calling Bush sympathetic and sincere, a man of faith. But she also sharply stated that she wasn't happy with the way the war had been handled, and accused Bush of changing his rationale. "

Also note that even before the Sheehan vigil, the president's ratings have been slipping.
