What Really Grinds My Gears

I had to borrow the line from The Family Guy. "...you know what really grinds my gears??"

Asshole Parents and adults these days. Give it a fucking REST! So it's Tuesday. Um.... September 8th! Yeah, that would be the day that the President... President OBAMA is going to talk to the kids today. What's the problem?? Are you here on a work visa and somehow your kids are going to school at the same time?? Maybe I would agree with you and say... don't worry about what the president is saying as a parent. Other than that.... give it the fuck up! He's the President. President. President. President. President. Whether you like it or not! I didn't vote for Obama... but you don't see me over here throwing a tantrum that he's the President of the United States. Let it fucking go! He wants to talk to the kids... good to go! Good for our kids. What a way for them to actually see his face actually speaking to THEM! And i get the debate (sort of). It's all about his OTHER SPEECH he was gonna give. It had parts of the health care debate in there. SO WHAT??? You know, I don't let my kids sway my vote on what's for dinner most nights... let alone on the National Health Care debate. Wait a minute... we're not voting on it. NO ONE IS... Unless you're a member of the Senate or House. ANd if you are.... can you do something about my residency in Oregon please??

Anyway, you're not. You don't vote on it. If you're that weak minded that your kids turn your decision on this.... give up voting all together please. You'll be the same one to vote in Lindsay Lohan if she ran for office.

But he's the President of the United States of America. Try to think back to when you were say a 4th Grader, and the president was going to talk to you all. Now imagine your PARENTS throwing a fit over that... Wait... they wouldnt have. Why?? They were red blooded americans that no matter what the difference in party affiliation was, understood that he was the President. Period. Now imagine yourself trying to get out of school because he's gonna talk.... again... not happening. But we're doing it in DROVES these days. What the FUCK is wrong with us??

Maybe I have the worst luck in voting, but I'm not a big complainer on it either. I voted for Perot back in the day. Wham... got my ass kicked on that one. I didn't vote for Obama either.... SO WHAT??? Is the world coming to an end??? Maybe. Isn't that supposed to be 12/21/2012??? According to the Mayans?? If so, aren't all you religious nuts happy about that/? Get to go see you maker finally?? Be saved and all that??? Are you losing your faith or something?? Nervous???

Our kids do the Pledge of Allegiance and sing the National Anthem every day before school starts. Yeah... our kids actually do that. All the kids out here do. Not just on base. Base follows NC laws out here.

It's a relief. Its nice. Its a blast from the past.

Get over it. Quit putting political ideologies in your kids' heads. Let them be kids. Let them hear the President and Let it BE!

Later, pimps...
