2012: Dump the Chump

     Well, this entry is a special one, in more than one way.  Since election fever is already in the air, you all know that TCY can smell the stupidity, the fear, the kickbacks, the bribes and the bullshit that is about to start being aired on public television.  But before I start, we have a special blogger today.  This entry will be started by a long time reader but a 1st time blogger.  Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you, The Arctic Char.

      I feel greatly privileged to be the first guest blogger here at the Crankee Yankee, and I feel privileged to be a citizen of this great country. It wasn’t always so: I am a naturalized American, coming from a country just north of here.

      For those of us who aren’t likely to vote Democrat, it is a minimum five-year process to earn…yes, earn…American citizenship. It took me two years to get my Green Card, then depending on the circumstances of eligibility, citizenship can be applied for after either three or five years.

      I have to confess I did not take advantage of that privilege for well-beyond five years. One can function perfectly well in this country as a Permanent Resident carrying a Green Card. Which, by the way, the US Citizenship and Immigration Services makes perfectly clear, "It is your responsibility to carry proof of your permanent resident status at all times", a mandate the Federal Department of Justice is suing the states of Arizona and Alabama to force their policemen to overlook.

     The two disadvantages that I know of to maintaining Permanent Resident status over citizenship is that one cannot buy a house with only 5% down payment and one cannot vote, which I do believe ACORN interprets as should not vote.

     I wasn’t eligible for citizenship during the Clinton years and didn’t need to vote during the Bush years, so I dragged my feet. Then, Mr. Obama was elected President and his number one concern was instituting Universal Health Care. Been there, done that, left the country.

It was time to realize that I love this country and I love living in this country. It is indeed the greatest country on earth. As they say playing euchre, ‘go high or go home’, it was time to become an American.

      One’s citizenship application must be accompanied by a check for $900. It was Kroger-brand Kraft dinners for a month but I came up with the money. And studied for the test… (The Federalist Papers supported the passage of the U.S. Constitution. Name the writers.)

     The process took about eight months but the pride-filled day finally arrived when I took the Oath of Allegiance and was handed my American Citizenship Certificate and a little American flag to wave.

I waved and I wept.

And now for the Crankee himself. . .

2012: Dump the Chump

This presidential election is potentially the most important in the history of the United States of America 's short life. What is at stake is the Union itself. It will be the difference between America going bankrupt or prospering, survival of our historical way of life, or life with almost unbelievable interference of the federal government in our everyday lives. Simply stated, it is the difference between freedom and serfdom. I as a conservative obviously want my freedom to be enjoyed by my grandchildren and their grandchildren to follow.

Mr. Obama has now taken up the class warfare banner that many of his liberal predecessors held before him. Why does this tactic seem to work so well? One reason is that the American school system has been taken over by the left. They do not teach our children that America is the land of opportunity.  Instead it is taught more and more that whichever financial class you are born into is where you must stay.

The truth, and the magic of this great country is you are free to climb as high as your abilities and your dreams carry you. In this great society there are all kinds of ways for anyone who wants to go to college and become anything they want. This is why people from all over the world come here. It is the only place in the world where people can be all that they can be. We have trade schools for those who either by choice or ability can't make it in college. Today these trade jobs are paying more than many college-needed jobs. In fact there are shortages of the trade skilled worker! We have for so long put such a high value on going to college that too few people are becoming mechanics, roofers, carpenters, plumber and so on.

My point is this; there are endless ways of becoming a success in this country and the reason that class-envy works is that our kids aren't being taught that if one is not happy with what "life has dealt them" there are countless ways to improve your financial standing.

I can't help but believe that if there were no unemployment insurance, no social security, no food stamps, no welfare, no Medicaid, and so on and so on that people would rediscover that they can change for themselves the quality of there own lives. Do you think that for one minute that if the Federal Tit dried up that people would starve in the streets? No, I don't except that; the basic survival instincts would kick in. We might find ourselves having jobs in this country that we haven't seen in years. When is the last time you seen a cobbler shop?  Shoes are expensive and repairs are seemingly simple, but where are those who want to fill that void?  If there were no "free money" someone would say to themselves, "I bet I can fix shoes for money". Appliance repair shops are few and far between, and those that are open want you to bring the appliance to them to fix. There is a job opportunity! House call repairman that doesn't charge 100.00 just to show up.

Next year you will be voting for the future generations, don't let someone scare you into thinking you can't live without the government. The fact is that smaller the government, the better the quality of your lives will be. Vote for man that wants to free people from the Federal Tit! If you depend on someone to feed you and cloth you, warm you and shelter you, than you are their slave!!!

Vote for a man that will let you keep the money you earn, and not a man that wants you to work harder and longer to get what you need for your family so that another family can stay home and watch the Price is Right while you pay their bills.  We are very close to the breaking point. The point to where it is just as financially beneficial to stay home and let another man feed you than it is to go to work and bring home the same amount. When that line is broke and more people are staying home than working, the entire system will collapse. When that day comes no one will get any money from the federal government and the kind of chaos you are seeing in Greece will come here.

Sorry there is no comedy in this rant, but sometimes you've just got to be dead serious. The lives of my grandchildren and your loved ones depend on us taking very serious our obligation to vote for freedom and not let that big eared socialist son of a bitch have 4 more years to spread his “take from one to give to another bullshit”, a fucking liar and thief!  What were you thinking of 3 years ago?  If you have white guilt, then vote for Cain… he's 100% black!  Fucking liberals, you won't commit 100% on anything. You went and voted for 1/2 black. Hell even the blacks said that if he messed up they would claim that he didn't represent them.

2012 Dump the Chump.

You knew it was coming...........

Fight back

TCY.

The Arctic Char writes. . .



      How many of us have welcomed a new boss to the organization who suggests doing something we all know doesn’t work? In a chorus along with fourteen co-workers we all chime in four-part harmony, "We’ve tried that before umpteen times and it doesn’t work."

"Ah, yes, "says he," but you haven’t tried it under me."

Socialism, big government and the Nanny State doesn’t work. Pick a country in Europe to use as proof. And, Mr. Obama, it won’t work under you, either.

To paraphrase a question on the Immigration Test… "Walk softly and carry a big vote."

Next November will be the first time I will be able to vote in a federal election. I plan on voting at the top of my lungs.

The Great Pumpkin My ASS

     Well, it finally looks like enough is going wrong in the world for TCY to get fired up!  With TCY's spider senses starting to tingle with the oncoming news of all the things that piss him off, this should be fun.  Between Democrats, stupid people, holidays, the President, his significant other and society in general, we should get some nice rants and raves.  So, everyone who reads this, please post a comment when you have something to say, or even if you just want to get TCY fired up, it's entertainment for everyone.  We are going to start this off with TCY's favorite holiday Beggerween, err I mean Halloween.  Geez, I am already using TCY's lingo.

Here we are, 10 days away from the worst holiday ever created. BEGGERWEEN. Before all you egg head sons-of -bitches start writing of the historic celebration of all hallows eve. The TCY is an educated individual and I don't need your rendition of the celebration.

I'm talking about the new and improved Beggerween. When we teach our young offspring, with their heads full of mush, that it is perfectly ok to go to a strangers house and beg for them to give you something that you have not worked for. Hand it over just because you asked for it.

When I was a mush filled youth I too took part in this embarrassing display of lowly begging for candy with some significant differences.

1. We only begged in our own neighborhood. We did not carpool all over the county begging from people we had no idea who they were. Yes, back in the day we knew our neighbors.

2. We used the driveways and sidewalks of our potential victims. We did not cascade over the top of the pickup trucks and make frontal assaults across the lawn, through the bushes and over the flowers pushing over the rails any children that may have beaten us to the source of our attack the large bowl of someone else's candy.

3.We obeyed the unwritten rules to this begfest. The rules are simple, you dress up like some kind of ghoul or fool and you get free candy. Seems easy enough to follow right. FUCK NO! You see now 15 & 16 year old little bastards show up on your stairs with a pot induced case of the munchies, dressed as any other day begging you for candy. I must admit they do help me prove my point that this celebration does cause people to have a sense of entitlement implanted in them. If you really want to laugh, tell them no and see what kind of look you get. It's almost worth opening door for.

4. Now get this for being old fashion.  We actually said THANK YOU!!! Today’s little bastards are in such a hurry to get off your step and race across your yard to your next-door neighbors, that they hardly ever take the time to say thank you. Oh you get the occasional "see ya".  The thing I hate the most is the little shit that asks for more.

What the fuck? I just gave into your pathetic begging and you want more than I offer?

This is why I say “Do NOT teach your children to beg!”  They will grow up to be thinking that things are due them just because. They will have a sense of entitlement that will make them think that just because they want it or even need it,  that someone should just give it to them. They will think that if someone has the money to get things that they don't have, that they should be able to go up to that person and take it from them. In other words my Friends, they will become DEMOCRATS! Now that's some scary shit!!! Stephen King never wrote anything as scary as I just wrote.

Happy Beggerween, and keep the lights off. Let the roaming hoards of beggar's waste gas for nothing.

Fight back

TCY

     Of all the things that TCY can bitch about, which there are plenty, I can't believe he has a problem with Halloween.  Wait, yes I can.  He has a problem with everything that most "normal" people don't think twice about.  Just a warning to anyone who might be in his area on October 31st, DON'T STEP ON HIS GRASS!  I know for a fact, that it is loaded with land mines from his own bulldog. 
     Most people who don't want to have anything to do with Halloween usually just leave their porch light off and don't answer the door, but TCY has to be his confrontational self and cause trouble.  I personally do not believe that encouraging the kids to beg for candy on Halloween will turn them into Democrats.  As for the herds of people caravanning their kids from subdivision to subdivision, that seems  a bit too far.  Back when I was a trick or treater, we either walked to the "money" subdivision where they handed out the good stuff, actual name brand candy bars, sometimes full size candy or we stayed at a friends house, the one in the best subdivision and trick or treat there and sleep over.   BUT if we came to a house that gave us some shit like an apple or anything that wasn't candy or just acted like a dick, that house was put on the list! The list were the houses that sucked.  The next year, the day before Halloween, it has many names: mischief night, goosey night, devils night, etc, we would toilet paper their house and yard, use shaving cream on their windows and doors and if they were real douche bags, they got egged!  So, if some house sucked, they paid for it the next year.  Ah, the good old days. 
     So the moral of this entry is if you act like TCY and treat other people the way he does, you have been warned.  You just might wake up with your house toilet paper'd, your car windows covered in shaving cream and a flaming bag of dog shit on your front porch! - Fight Back!!! Ha Ha Ha



YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!



Smoking Just Might Save Your Life

     It has been a while since the last post.  TCY has been busy and I have been busy.  But the day has come, I knew it would, when TCY could not hold it back and spew from his orafice something that would get this rolling again.  Of course, the one thing that he and I completely disagree on is the subject.  SMOKING!  Most of my friends seem to be of the smoking persuasion.  Yes, it is nasty, disgusting, expensive and smells but I have to deal with it at work and home, so I guess i have to deal with it right? Wrong!  Ask people who know me, I am that annoying person who is against smoking and oh so happy about the rules that are in place.  No smoking n hospitals, no smoking on campus, no smoking in restaurants, no smoking at church camp(yeah, you two know who I am talking about).  Before i get started on my rant, let me allow TCY to start on his.
     TCY says. . .

I have had about all I can take with this, “Cigarettes are BSD for you bull!” Every time you turn on the radio or TV you hear the crybaby people speaking of the evils of cigarettes.  If they are so damn bad why doesn’t the imperial government of the US out law them? This is the same government that outlawed lawn darts and the 3 wheel ATV because “too many people are getting hurt”.  Fireworks are illegal in a lot of states, and of those that do allow fireworks only a few have the good ones. You know the ones I speak of, the ones that go BOOM!!  I’m sure you can come up with many other products that have been made illegal that you may have enjoyed but some retard somewhere got hurt with it so it’s gone for everybody.

Except the cigarettes! Oh you hear how many millions of people it kills, how much money it cost the government in medical bills, (if the government wouldn’t give so much money to the poor, poor, pitiful poor, they wouldn’t have money enough for cigarettes)!!! Do you ever hear anyone, ANYONE say they should be taken off the shelves. Hell NO!! Why?? TAXES!!!

It is perfectly acceptable in the minds of the Politician’s to allow you and I a smoke and get all kinds of terrible aliments as long as they can make a buck off it.

So if it’s costing the government so much money, why is it allowed? The dirty little secret is they make far more off the taxes on cigarettes than the cigarette smokers cost the government in medical costs. After all, we smokers have the good manners to die once we get sick, saving the government billions in social security payments.  People with bad backs cost the government more than smokers. Those dogs, most of which aren’t really hurt, don’t die - they just keep holding out their hands for more free money from us hard working smokers. Wait, if I say more about this the government will outlaw working hard because it leads to bad backs!

Funny they promote the gay life style, which has killed how many millions of people with Aids and HIV? Including people who were not aware that their partners had it. How many people caught lung cancer from someone they didn’t know smoked?Kind of hard to hide it, one would have to be blind deaf and have no sense of smell or taste.

This is the same group of people that have recalls on toys because of any number of reasons: small parts, paint chips, sharp edges etc… Look generations of kids grew up fine with these toys; Ok the dumb kids may have had problems. That’s natural selection; this is what keeps the gene pool strong. That’s one of the biggest problems this country has. We protect the stupid and allow those weak genes to be passed from one generation to the next. But I digress.

Could you see the up rise if the government started to tax toys? So they can’t tax so they make the toys they don’t like illegal. But cigarettes, they tax the dog stuff out them. It doesn’t matter how many people die as long as there is money to be made from it. So stop telling me how bad it is. If it’s that bad, make it illegal or shut up! I want to smoke in restaurants again! In libraries, even in hospitals. Yes hospitals!!!  When is the last time you looked around at a hospital?  All the smokers huddled up, outside are nurses and doctors. Your damn right they are! So how bad are they? Who else do you see smoking all the time? Teachers are well known for their smoking, and they educate our kid’s right, wrong but that’s a different rant.

So if the people we as a civilization consider to be among the wisest among us are smoking how bad could it be? It could kill you, ok, so can driving to the health club.

I smoke for the safety of the people around me; if I didn’t light up every once in awhile I would fear for their safety and well being. So be considerate, of others and puff away!!

Fight back

TCY

      So, as for no smoking in hospitals, good! Shame, shame on those doctors and nurses who have to deal with people's illness' from smoking and then go out back to light one up.  Since politicians are the biggest hypocrites, why not the doctors and nurses also?  I know it's your body, you can do what you like, but I don't want to have to breathe in your nasty smoke or even smell your nasty self.  I hate at work when a fella comes in from smoking a carton, and his hand or face in 6 inches from me, it takes all my self control to not tell him to get the fuck out of my face you nasty smelly ash tray!  As for everyone I work with, well i figure that if they have to listen to my music, then i can deal with their stench.
     As for teachers, honestly, if I had to deal with 20 hormone filled teenagers for 8 hours a day and I am not allowed to beat them, I might have to sneak out back for a smoke, but not of the tobacco type.  
     Yes, TCY has an extremely great point about why the government still allows cigarettes if they cause so much harm.  Money, Money and Mo' Money.  But even if pig's grew wings and started flying around, and cigarettes were illegal, how many of those addicted government officials will be sneaking them in the men's bathroom at midnight? Getting their supply by knowing a secret combination of foot maneuvers in the last stall on the far end of the restroom.  Prostitution is illegal, yet senators and congressmen are fornicating like it's going out of style, while their wives are at home smoking!  Cigarettes are a legal drug, they are not going anywhere to my dismay, but at least I know smokers are suffering and have to go outside to light up after eating their nice juicy steak or having a nice cold beer in a bar.

    And yes, TCY have a cigarette or two or three to keep calm before he caused physical bodily harm to a coworker might be necessary, but as long as I work there, I will fight it until one of us wins. 

Women are Whores



It’s been quite a long time since the last post.  Part of it is my fault, work and life has gotten in the way.  The other part is TCY’s.  He has been lazy!  No, really he has been just as busy as I have been.  Not that there hasn’t been any stupid shit in the news lately.  I mean, the end of the world on May 21^st and we didn't get to post!  But we’re still here.  The Governator cheating on his wife!!! Say it ain’t so Arnold.  Another politician that lied and cheated on his wife; who knows what else he has done to the regular people of California if he lied, cheated and father a child from someone other than his wife!  Point is, TCY and myself have been slack on the important issues, and I apologize.  We shall see if TCY apologizes, but don’t anyone hold their breath. 

            So, I wanted to start this one off with something I was working on a few months ago, a theory I have.  The theory is that all women are whores.  Now, the definition of a whore is simply:

A woman who engages in sexual acts for money; a person who accepts payment in any form in exchange for sexual relations. 

Let’s start this off in a way that every man can relate with.  A man takes a woman out on a date.  He buys her a nice dinner, perhaps flowers. The woman orders a drink or two or three. Maybe even dessert! Takes her to a movie or some other sort of entertainment, maybe a concert.  If it is a movie, then probably some popcorn and a drink.  If it's a concert, then definitely a drink or two or three. All this time, spending his hard earned money, why? To make sure she has a good time? Well sort of.  The man is spending the money to make sure she has a good time so that she will possibly give him a good time.  So, by this rational, if the woman does give this man a little play, then according to the definition above, she is a Ho.  She accepted payments, i.e. dinner, drinks, movie and popcorn and in return gave the man a little ride on the Ohhh train.  So by that rational, all women are whores.  Now, I am not saying that men are only thinking about sex, but the main reason a man ask out a woman, is because he just wants someone to talk to.  Yeah right.  It is because he wants to have relations with this woman.  Seriously, men think about sex, whether they admit ir or not, at least a hundred times a day at a minimum.  Same for women.  A women goes out with a man because she is someway attracted to him.  Now, if you are a woman who has never been on a date, then I guess you ain’t no ho.  But sooner or later, you’ll be ho’in it up, unless you are a lesbian. But then again, one of the two women will be the one paying and the other will be accepting payments.  HaHaHa.

Any and all comments are more than welcomed; especially from all them whores out there…I need your feedback.

Bully for Your Thoughts

    
     Ok, I didn't really know how to respond to what TCY sent me.  It is a subject that has had great debate at my house.  I think in some warped fucked up way, TCY makes a valid point but then the normal rational part of my brain wakes up and realizes what TCY is saying and smacks some sense into me.

Bullies are Character Builders

Today, they are trying their best to turn this world into a hippie utopia. One of the things that they are going after now is stomping out bullies. The only place that this is practical is in the aforementioned utopia.  Bullies I'm sure everyone would agree are rotten bastards. I have another angle I want to come at you with (of course).

Bullies do serve a valuable purpose in the real world. Every man and child has been bullied, most have actually done some bullying somewhere along the line. Whether it be a little brother, cousin or kid down the road, you’re most likely guilty of this politically incorrect act. That being said, think about this, that bullying experience shapes who you are. The way a person deals with confrontation shows a lot about that person. It is a social skill. Children learn young, under uninhibited conditions their hierarchy in life, and learning this young gives the young person time to change that standing if he or she desires.  Now taking away the bully from the schoolyard ,where does a child learn this. In real life you have to admit that as adults we have to encounter confrontation. You can even under certain circumstances call it bullying at the adult level.

Let's look at some scenarios.

Your at the ball game with your son, a fly ball is hit in your direction, you reach up to catch this ball and in the back of your head your thinking how much your kid is going to look up to you for getting him a game ball. The ball hits the inside of your glove and you begin to bring the glove down, and the guy on the side of you reaches into your glove and takes your ball! What do you do? If you had encountered a bully at a younger age, your response to this will be equivalent to that. If you punked out as a kid your going to punk out as a dad, and your kid is going to suffer heartache because his dad just got punked right in front of him. Oh, you'll keep the family tradition of being a big puss going by explaining to your kid that "in this world son there are bad people, you just have to keep out of their way".

Now, same thing happens BUT when you were young you faced a bully and stood up to him, you fought him. It doesn't matter who won the fight, you stood up and fought like a little man. Now you’re a dad and the bully has taken your kids ball. You stand up to him demanding he give the ball back. If he gives it back great if not you speak softly so the kids can't hear and tell him that if he doesn't give you the ball YOU WILL BEAT HIM DOWN in front of God and everybody. You get your ball, the kid looks up to and you've shown your kid that you don't back up from evil you confront it and you over come it.

Children should not be protected from bullies, they should be taught how to stand up for themselves, how to be little men. These will be tomorrow’s leaders and if they have not learned how to stand up and defend themselves as kids they will be a lot like the leaders we presently have. Men who will not stand up for this country, instead they will as our PresBro is doing now go around and apologize for being great.

You'll never know who you really are until your tested. Isn't it better to be tested young so that if you fail you will have plenty of time to change the way you do things? Time to mold yourself into someone whom you can respect when you go to sleep at night.  Adversity makes you strong. To quote what a wise man once said " what ever doesn't kill you makes you stronger". Let's allow our children to grow up strong. Strong people made this a strong country. These pansy waisted puppies we have in Washington right now are showing the world that we are weak.

Fight back

TCY

    Ok, I agree with standing up to bullies.  Whether you get your ass kicked or not, it is the thing to do.  The problem nowadays is that bullies are more dangerous than when I was a kid and even when TCY was a kid.  How does a 5th grader stand up to a bully who is palming a blade and packing heat?  That 5th grader stands up for himself and then takes a bullet in the chest.  Then what? The parent of the deceased young boy goes to the parents house to confront the wonderful parents of the bully and they tell him to fuck off.  His son had to shoot their son because he was bullying him?  These days now, kids have access to way more than before.  They can log online and learn how to make a pipe bomb from unconventional things around the house in the basement or garage.  They can get information to steal identities.  Do you know that most virus's that people get are mostly from people under the age of 18!  Yep, underage cyber-bullies! Little teenagers who know how to bring chaos and destruction from the touch of a button.  Counterfeiting, identity theft, pirating and bullying.  You name it.  Being able to fuck up someone's life with just a mouse and keyboard, I can see why teenagers with raging hormones enjoy doing it.  Hey, TCY, think of a person from your past that bullied you, and made you feel like a worthless piece of shit. Now, think of how good you would feel if with the click of a button, you could wipe out his savings account, get him fired from his job and have him go up the FBI's most wanted list with the few taps on a keyboard and the click of a mouse button.  Tell me, that would not give you a rush?
     Anyway, back to the original point, standing up to a bully is a must.  But having a zero tolerance policy in school is now almost a necessity because once a kid is dead from a bully, he's dead.  There is no bringing him back to life or resetting the game. 
     But just for TCY, even though they are trying to get bullies out of school, there is still outside of school.  Kids will still hang out after school and go to friends houses and play basketball in the street in a local neighborhood.  Besides school, there is still plenty of places for bullies to do what they do.  Bullies will still show their face, and then the children can stand up and put him or her in their place.  Yes, there are girl bullies out there too.  They don't get an exception!  And they are the worst.  Not just physical bullying but they use that mind-fuck bullying!  Making a little girls head so fucked up, like cyber bullying her on facebook and in school, she hangs herself in her room!
