Hope For America

The idea is simple: The country was founded by a group of people that had a certain set of core values and beliefs—so why not follow those? There is one potential candidate vying for the position of President of the United States of America that has held true to those same core values and beliefs. His decades-long voting record speaks for itself.

  • He has never voted to raise taxes.
  • He has never voted for an unbalanced budget.
  • He has never voted for a federal restriction on gun ownership.
  • He has never voted to raise congressional pay.
  • He has never taken a government-paid junket.
  • He has never voted to increase the power of the executive branch.
  • He voted against the Patriot Act.
  • He voted against regulating the Internet.
  • He voted against the Iraq war.
  • He does not participate in the lucrative congressional pension program.
  • He returns a portion of his annual congressional office budget to the U.S. treasury every year.
  • He introduces numerous pieces of substantive legislation each year, probably more than any single member of Congress.

The country is at a crossroads and there is one person with the foresight and integrity to lead. He is Ron Paul. He is Hope For America.

Who’d have pictured me getting behind someone that is trying to get on the GOP ticket? That’s how right he is.

Europa And The Licking Of The Balls

Him: sup, yo?

Me: On my way to Boulder, CO. I quit and I stole this laptop.

Him: 15 days to Europa, baby!

Me: Europa?

Him: Uh… cool.

Me: Didn’t they sing final countdown

Him: I don’t know about that. http://www.eclipse.org/europa/

Me: And we are excited about this because?

Him: Eclipse is the future, dog.

Me: Future of what?

Him: Software Development

Me: (I actually prefer working in VS.NET… how shitty is that?)

Him: You just don’t know what you’re talking about, that’s all.

Me: Do they send out free t-shirts when it’s released?

Him: if you write a review.

Me: Get me one.

Him: write a review

Me: I’ll pretend to be excited.

Him: yeah—you just wait.

Me: Does it have to pander and be positive even if I don’t like it? Will I get a free shirt for saying it licks balls?

Him: Probably not—because that would be a lie. Because it doesn’t lick balls.

Me: I wouldn’t give someone a shirt if they said my stuff licks balls.

Him: Although, it does everything else, so why not? I may write the lick balls plugin.
