    Fleece Vests?

    I wear a wool Filson vest all the time in the winter. Fleece, no fucking way.
  12. If they ever make you a spray moderator, I'm gone for good. You suck.
  13. Just like Neo in The Matrix, I decided to swallow the red pill! It's amazing what you see when the veil is finally lifted. Now comes the hard part: Trying to understand why others cannot see what I now see so plainly. It's all for show, the whole government thing. Now for the next lesson - In order to make this country more secure it will take one thing and one thing only - ever present vigilance on the part of every freedom loving American. Vigilance and personal responsibility. I think Albert Einstein said it best when he said, "The strength of the Constitution lies entirely in the determination of each citizen to defend it. Only if every single citizen feels duty bound to do his share in this defense are the constitutional rights secure."
  14. Ray, a teacher's greatest enemy is his fellow teachers. They can be some of the most conceited, self-serving, tunnel-visioned people that I know. They think nothing of playing politics with the kids, which is just plain wrong. If the teacher's unions were to clean house, institute some self policing, lobby for some meaningful education laws such as changing legislation so that you can weed out the deadwood, or actually repealing some of them and start to demonstrate as a whole that they really are in it for the kids and not just a paycheck, then teacher's would stand a much better chance. There are some excellent teachers out there, but when the occupation as a whole is characterized by the most outspoken of those who happen to be in a position of union leadership and come off with the characteristics I mentioned above, then it hurts all teachers. We need competition in this field, not government protection from competition. When that happens and it's truly free competition, then the cream of the crop will rise and the deadwood and problems in this occupational field will be weeded out and education will succeed.
  15. It's unfortunate that most people don't seem to care about this subject. I would bet that the majority of people in this country either don't have any idea what the Patriot Act is or they have completely forgotten about it. The act was obviously just a document waiting for an excuse to be enacted and it isn't a democrat or republican thing, it is a big government thing. If our officials really wanted to secure our country, they would have shut the borders two years ago, rounded up every suspicious character in the country and either deported them if they were illegal or let them go if they were legal. Instead, they've sold us an illusion of security. Our borders are wide open, our air travel industry has become a joke with guys like me getting yanked to the side to have my socks checked while Habib Abdul the baggage handler, walks back and forth from his car to the aircraft every time he wants a cigarette. I just heard an interview with Thomas Tancredo, a Colorado Republican Rep. who chairs the Congressional Immigration Reform Caucus and amongst other things, he stated that the Mexican Drug Cartel has now stepped into the alien smuggling business and almost half of their new business is Chinese and Middle Eastern nationals paying up to $30, 000.00 a piece to get into this country. We hear stories from Ashcroft that they have bad guys under surveillance around the country and are monitoring them carefully. Excuse me Agent Smith, why don't you just go arrest the mother fucker and get them out of my country? The other day coming out of Vegas, my friend and I got stopped and given the royal treatment by some "Security" goons at the Hoover Dam. Why? Because your truck "Looks big enough to do some damage if it had anything in it" was their response. I asked them if we looked like terrorists to them and their response was that they weren't specifically looking for them, they were to just pick people at random. Excuse me? Then there are those that point to the fact that we haven't been attacked since '91 and use that to justify the Act. Guess what guys? It had been ten years since we had been attacked the last time and by gosh, we didn't even have a Patriot Act to protect us during that whole time. As you can see, I can go on and on about this because it REALLY pisses me off. Almost as much as the complacency of most of the country in letting this continue. The purpose of this act is just a large leap forward for government power that started with our "War on Drugs", another worthless, liberty grabbing bunch of laws and restrictions that our government uses. I Prefer Dangerous Freedom To Peaceful Slavery- Thomas Jefferson Yep, some people may die but you know what? 50,000 people die in car wrecks every year. 100,000 people die because of improper medical prescriptions or drug reactions. I'll take Jefferson's world...
  16. Will, I pine for McCain again too. Someone with a clue, please step forward and return this country to greatness.
