Killer Eating Urges
Fat Kills
While I have as of late been writing more about politics, this subject is too important to pass up on the opportunity to comment.
Being fat is wrong. You see, in order to be fat, you have to take in more calories than you actually expend. If you are 1lb overweight, then you have consumed 3500 calories more than you needed. Keeping in mind that there are millions of people starving in the world, it should give you pause. For every pound that you are over weight, you can feed a child for 4 days (800 calories per day, which is far more than many are getting). Most overweight americans are not a pound overweight, but many pounds. Just thought that I would put it in perspective that if you carry just thirty extra pounds, you wastefully consumed enough food to feed a child for 120 days. If your fat, you're sinful and a misappropriator of neccesities. Show some discipline!

KERRY IN FLORIDA
"The Democrats call Florida the 'scene of the 2000 recount crime.' That's great rhetoric that plays well in the mainstream leftist press .. but not so well with anyone with even a modest knowledge of the facts. Facts, however, don't matter to Democrats. The economy is growing, they say it's in the tank. Unemployment is down, Democrats say the jobs picture is a disaster. Facts mean nothing ... rhetoric is king.
So, there he was ... John Kerry in West Palm Beach Florida pulling one of the oldest Democratic stunts on the books. He was telling Florida's wizened citizens that George Bush wants to cut their Social Security benefits. Nothing is quite so effective at getting the wrinkled class into a complete panic than telling them that their Social Security benefits are going to be cut. Democrats know this, and this is why Democrats have used this very same tactic in every single presidential election since the end of World War II. Funny thing though ... whenever the Republicans win, Social Security benefits do not get cut. Odd how that happens, isn't it?
But, year after year, the tactic continues. Democrats try to frighten old people. Old people vote for Democrats. An absolutely dependable cycle. Now ... just what could happen to mess up this quadrennial Democrat scare game? One thing. If the senior citizens knew that the Republicans could NOT reduce their benefits they would be less likely to run frightened to the polls to keep their Democrat protectors in office. And just what would it take to protect these benefits from being cut by politicians? Why, if those Social Security accounts were privately owned, that's what!
That, my friends, is why John Kerry was down there in Florida yesterday promising that no matter what, he would never permit Social Security to be privatized. You see, it's not about preserving the meager retirement benefits that Social Security provides --- if, that is, you live long enough to collect them. It's about preserving your ability to frighten old folks about losing those benefits ... and the only way you can do that is if Social Security is not privatized.
Here's something else for you to remember. A few years ago Republicans proposed a bill in Congress that would guarantee Social Security benefits to retirees. Oh! What's that? You say that you thought those benefits were guaranteed anyway? Not so! There is no law on the books which guarantees your right to benefits. They can be take away by the congress at any time. So ... the Republicans said why not just pass a law saying that those benefits are guaranteed and can not be taken away? Well ... guess who blocked this legislation. The Democrats, of course. The very same politicians who are always warning old folks that Republicans are going to take away their Social Security objected to a federal law that would guarantee them. You do understand why, don't you? It's simple. Because if those benefits were guaranteed, the Democrats could no longer frighten old folks by saying that they were going to be taken away!"
KERRY RECORD UNDER SCRUTINY
"President Bush had it right yesterday when he said during a speech that "my opponent clearly has strong beliefs - they just don't last very long." Not only do they not last very long, they constantly change. Let's just take a look at a few of Senator Kerry's greatest hits, shall we?
Turns out the Senator likes to write books. In his out of print 1997 tome "The New War," Kerry called Islamic terrorist Yasser Arafat a "role model" and a "statesman." Just eight days ago in a speech to Jewish leaders, he flip-flopped, saying he agreed with President Bush that Arafat was not a partner for peace - much less a statesman. That is one thing that is remarkably consistent about John Kerry: his position shifts with the audience.
Here's another example from the man who wants to direct the nation's foreign policy. Speaking to the Arab American Institute in July, he said that Israel's security fence was "provocative" and a barrier to peace. Then a week ago, he told Jewish leaders that the same fence was necessary to the security of Israel. So what is his position? Who knows...surely he doesn't.
And then we have the body armor issue. Kerry has accused the president of not supplying enough body armor to the troops in Iraq. However, it turns out that in 2002, Kerry voted against supplying the troops with more body armor.
Wow...8 more months to go until election day. Will there be debates between Kerry and himself?"

Thank You Al Gore for Inventing the Internet and thus Crushing the Liberal Media Stranglehold of Yesteryear!
Diana West: A tale of two Kerrys:
"More amazing than the policy shifts that occur a month or days apart are the shifts that are little more than a jot of punctuation. Last fall, Kerry explained his decision to oppose the president's plan to fund the post-liberation reconstruction of Iraq: 'I voted against that $87 billion in Washington yesterday,' Kerry said. 'But let me make it clear, I am for winning the war in Iraq.' Translation: I don't want to support the stabilization and rebuilding of Iraq, but I want to stabilize and rebuild Iraq."

Kerry Criticizes Bush for Not Adequately Supplying Troops
Well, Mr. Kerry, didn't you vote against continuing to fund the same mission? I don't despise too many people nor do I like to cuss too much on my site, but........
Fucking Hypocrite.
