John Cusack's Ranting Tweet and Fox News

Driving home from work tonight I was entertained once again by the carrying on of a member of Hollywood and his verbal assault on Fox News. While some might find this verbal ranting funny, I find it a sign of the times.

Why is it that people pay so much attention to the liberal members of Hollywood? Why is it that members of Hollywood make a point to rant and rave at Fox News? Now, while we all have the Constitutional Right to Free Speech, we do not have the Right to encourage others to do bodily harm to others.

We can encourage people to avoid watching a media outlet if we disagree with their political views or views on society. We can voice our outrage, we can write letters or simply turn the channel if we choose. But, it makes me ill to think of an individual encouraging possible harm of death to others.

While John Cusack may be entertaining to watch in a movie, he definitely overstepped himself with his comments regarding Fox News. Personally, I feel that he should offer an apology to members of Fox News and should retract his encouragement of physical confrontation. Death is not a joke and his remarks were horrific and he should be ashamed to tweeting something so vile.

The Lose of Our Freedoms

America is under going a radical act from within. American citizens are slowly losing our freedoms. Sometimes we are told that it's for our own good. Smoking causes cancer, so "we" are to going tell you where you can smoke. It doesn't matter, that it has been proven that we all carry the gene which causes cancer, we are born with it. No, the powers that be will take away your right to choose what you will or will not do. All in the name of "being for your own good."

When seat belts came out, we had the choice of wearing or not wearing them. Now, it is illegal to be caught driving without a seat belt on. The revenue that is generated by law enforcement issuing tickets make up a large part of a county or city budget. It is amazing to think that at one time automobile makers were considering removing them from vehicles.

Prayer and The Pledge of Allegiance were once part of each and every school day. It's what we did before starting our day. Now, it is only found in schools associated with religious organizations. It's considered politically incorrect to talk about or refer to God, in any form at public school. Instead of using a prayer in school as a teaching tool to promote understanding, we have let it divide us as a country.

There are individuals and groups who want to take away our right to bear arms. The Right to bear arms was granted to all Americans by the Bill of Rights. No one or no group has the right to take the bearing of arms away from American Citizens. Men and women have fought and died in order to keep our country free from those who would take our freedoms from us.

Americans need to wake up before it's too late and all of our freedoms are gone. Glenn Beck recently talked about the Lose of Our Republic on his TV Show on the Fox News Channel. Many Americans may be uncomfortable with what he has to say, but maybe it's time that we got out of our comfort zone and opened our eyes and our ears, before it's too late.

Generation Zero, Count Down to Disaster

Generation Zero is a movie that addresses the disaster that is facing our country. It explains how the generations that survived the Great Depression and who fought in WWII created a generation of selfish individuals by giving them more than they needed. The best intentions went very wrong.

These individuals are the former hippies. The flower children who spit on the soldiers when they returned from Vietnam. These are the ones who bomb buildings and generally caused disorder in this country.  These are the Asbury Park Generation. They went from hippie to yuppie with age and change in political atmosphere. Their selfish, I can do no wrong attitude, nothing can go wrong attitude caused the Wall Street Disaster.

They are very good at talking but not at taking responsibility. There actions are leading us down the path to disaster. History repeats itself. A depression maybe around the counter, and this time there may be no saving this country.

Hannity, on Fox News recently had videos of Generation Zero and also interviewed the individuals responsible for this video. Watch these videos and educate yourself before it's too late.

Amnesty and Illegal Immigrants

Fox New, CNN and others, along with the print media keep the immigration problem at the fore front of the news. We are hit, hourly and daily with news about what President Obama wants to do about the problem of illegal immigrants. We don't hear realistic solutions but we do hear how amnesty is the humanitarian thing to do. President Obama's supports make it seem that if you are against amnesty then you are a bigot or worse.

The truth of the matter is that American citizens, all over this country are tired of his lack of leadership and how he seems too far removed from the serious situations facing this country. His liberal ideas and liberal supports don't seem to care about this country or its legal residents.

You can not just give amnesty to illegal immigrants without first investigation who they are and why there are here. Just because they came here as a child, does not give them the right to remain here, especially if they are part of a gang, or they are living off the system. While amnesty may work for those who have entered the military and who have gainful employment, it can not simply be a blanket situation.

Amnesty should be looked at on an individual basis. Criminal records must be reviewed, as well as possible connections to drug cartels in Mexico. How, when and why they came must be assisted, as well as the reasons that kept them from using the Immigration System currently in place.

Amnesty has a place, but it is not necessarily in Immigration Reform. Common sense needs to rule, along with humanitarian reasoning. This is not the America of the past, with vast resources, abundant jobs and land. The Federal Government owns most of the land in the western part of this country and homesteading is a thing of the past. Big business and their lack of a moral compass has helped in the destruction of this country. Small businesses are failing daily and the economy is failing along with them.

Welfare Rolls are overflowing and American Taxpayers are tired of paying for individuals who refuse to work or take responsibility for themselves. Americans are just plain tired of the lies and corruption in Washington and in Big Business.

While many illegal immigrants are honest and hard working, many are not. While many illegal immigrants make wonder neighbors and friends, many do not. There is no easy answer to this problem, but common sense will go a long way in finding one.

Illegal immigrants need to know that this issue will be addressed and that it is their responsibility as well as ours to come up with a solution. If an individual wants to stay in this country and become an American Citizen then they should illustrate this by learning the language, by working hard and by coming forward without fear.

As Americans, we can find a resolution to this problem, without hate and without fear, if we work together,
