It’s a beautiful Thanksgiving Eve here in the Southeast. As I went out earlier to run some pre-Thanksgiving errands, the sun was peering through the pines and dancing off the rooftops, forming a view worthy of a painting. My mind was wandering as I thought of how lucky we all were to get to experience all the beauty and sounds of God’s handiwork. How thankful I was for all of my friends and family and all the blessings bestowed upon me throughout my years. How nice it was to have a truly American holiday dedicated to giving thanks to God for those blessings we share as Americans. And then I saw the most heart-wrenching, disgusting, and deflating sight imaginable. Not a sight that was new to me, mind you, but it seemed more vile now than ever before. And just as I was enjoying such an amazingly gorgeous day and a glorious stream of happy thoughts. All of that came to a screeching halt as I saw this horrible vision and I suddenly felt nauseous…. Yes, it was an Obama/Biden bumper sticker. Suddenly, I was filled with anger, discouragement, gloom, and yes, 3 weeks after the re-election of Barack Hussein Obama, still a tinge of disbelief.
Yes, I’ve had time to curse, scream, and break things as well as throw pity parties and hissy fits extremely unbecoming of a grown man. I’ve heard pundits, politicians, radio hosts, friends, and those in the blogosphere offer plenty of explanations about why this has happened. I’ve heard that it’s all part of God’s plan; therefore, we just need to accept it. I actually agree with that sentiment, but accepting it does not mean I have to like it; and I certainly do not have to be, nor will I be, thankful for it. And here is a list of a few related things I am not thankful for this year.
1. Mealy-mouthed, mamby pamby Republicans telling me we need to reach out to the illegal immigrants and feminazis sucking off the teat of contributing members of this country via various entitlements from the government. To the illegals, I say get the Hell out and either come legally or else. To the sluts, I say either charge a fee for sticking your toes in your ears so enthusiastically that is sufficient to pay for your birth control, or learn to keep your knees together.
2. The fact that there are more welfare recipients and ignorant simpletons in this country who can tell you more about Snookie and her ilk than they can about American History or the Constitution than there are informed, responsible and engaged citizens. And the thing that really pisses me off is the fact the idgets are allowed to vote without passing a “not retarded” quiz.
3. The assertion by panty-waisted, so called Conservatives that we should implement amnesty for the illegal immigrants that are already here and let them assimilate into society… Look, I live in Georgia, and I can’t throw a Chimi Changa down the street without hitting a Mexican who can’t speak a word of English upside the head. Assimilate, Schmassimilate…..Throw them out, lock them out, and keep them out.
4. All the MSM and hard-left liberals that supposedly love tolerance and fight for gay rights and women’s rights that insist on supporting Islamists and blaming Israel for beating up on the poor Muslims. Hellooo, freaks: Muslims would round up all of you women and strip you of every right you enjoy in this country and treat you like the animals their beloved Allah tells them you are; and if you resist, they get to stone you to death. And of course, the gays just get hung or beheaded to the loving cry of “Allah Akbar”… quaint isn’t it? You bunch of maroons. Islam and the Quran are nothing more than the rantings of an evil madman. Read it and learn it before you try to defend it, or shut your mouth.
5. Chris Matthews…nuff said
6.Knowing that I am going to have to listen to Barack Hussein Obama blatantly lie and watch an immense number of idiots and mentally-challenged lemmings cheer and defend him over the next 4 years. I will mute him every chance I get and just give any Obama Zombies a high five…upside the head…with a hot bag of wet nickels…
7. Knowing that we have Obama 2.0 versions coming in the next 4 years of Cash for Clunkers, the failed Stimulus package, Fast and Furious, The Apology Tour, Arab Spring, “You Didn’t Build That”, “Spread the Wealth Around”, EPA restrictions choking our businesses’ ability to grow, unconstitutional executive orders, Solyndra and Green Energy horsecrap, Climate Change Horsecrap, just more horsecrap in general..and the Granddaddy of all Socialist monstrosities, Obamacare. Not to mention the joys of being called racists every time we point out what a massive waste of skin and failure Barack Hussein Obama and his policies have been. Here’s the deal: you call me a racist? I call you a dimwit. Call me insensitive? I tell you to go put on your helmet and eat your ice cream.
8. My stumped toe I suffered while apparently attempting to kick a game-winning 50-yard field goal with my bed post at 3 a.m. this morning … but I digress..
There are just a few things I am not thankful for this Thanksgiving, and I’ve decided to quit here as I would be here writing through the Thanksgiving Holiday if I continued to seethe over our feckless leader’s victory and all the butt-hurt that is going to accompany it. Plus, I have a 24-dollar pan of cornbread dressing to fix… cost me 17 bucks last year, go figure. Some things I AM thankful for this Thanksgiving?? Of course my health, my family, my friends, my new-found sobriety (I picked a Hell of a time for kicking the alcohol, huh?) ; and yes, this still-great Country, my God, my Bible, and my guns…

I think you spoke the mind of millions of Americans, the question is what are we going to do about it.
We had a great chance of doing something about it, but voter fraud got in the way. Where’s the outrage? Things should have been handled when there problems cropped up during early voting. We should have gone back to paper ballots long ago. Voters should have to show up personally and have ID ready to PROVE the right to legally vote in our races. Enough of this horse hockey already.
The corruption continues and nobody who can do anything about it won’t do anything. We as a people just stand there with our thumbs up our rear ends scared to do what it takes to put things right in this country and be the Constitutional Republic that we are.
Our freedoms are being taken from us, the constitution is nothing more than toilet paper and things we don’t want are shoved down our throats whether we like it or not. The people are going to have to make a stand and not put up with any more of the BS. Until we do, we deserve whatever we get.
I agree we stand by and let that SOB do what he wants, Myself I’m going to use my rights and it will be a cold day in hell when i give up my guns or my rights. The only way we will get our country back is stand to gather. Every time i tell someone that, all they say is it won’t do any good with that attitude they are right we need a leader and be their for one another
Amen, brother!
My sentiments exactly. However, don’t think that it was necessarily God that put him in there. I just happened to be reading in the book of Hosea, where God is so angry with the Children of Israel for their idolatry. He said “They have set up kings, but not by me:” Hosea 8:4
I have visited other sites where they just accept it as God’s will, but they forget about the prince of the power of the air, aka lucifer. Never forget he travels up and down in the earth seeking whom he may devour. He is VERY busy and quite cunning, easily ensnaring the gullible and those who deny the ensuing destruction around them. Even in the face of it, they don’t see what is happening. They’re eyes are veiled and filled with stars, too busy drinking the kool-aid and collecting their free stuff promised to them by the devil himself.
But as they revel in their new found jackpot of freebies and such, there’s one thing they are forgetting. One day payment to the devil will be due. And that payment they will have to pay themselves. Nothing is free. It comes at a price. Remember when folks got 2 income tax check refunds? Remember that? Guess what? You get to pay it right back next year in the form of higher taxes. LOL! And people they thought they were getting this FREE money so they voted to continue the freebies. Too funny.
Reading while contemplating your heartfelt words I actually imagined running next to you.I am the son of a Mexican national who came to this great Nation sixty five years ago.My dad did what was required by law to become a legal resident of The United States of America.It took him years of verbal abuse from family & friends calling him mojado(wetback).He persevered and became a citizen of the greatest nation in the world according to his very words.My dad worked in the natural gas industry for almost forty yrs but had to retire early due to a head injury he sustained in the work place.He was proud of his Mexican heritage but he would often say that if the border of Mexico extended north to the states that were part of Mexico he would not have had the opportunities that el norte had to offer.The fact that He came to a country that he called home and loved as much or more than his beloved Mexico gave me an understanding of the illegal alien issue first hand.It is so pathetic that my Dad’s core values of self reliance,independence and traditional family values are trampled on by the Democrat party.They welcome law breaking to advance their thirst for complete & total power politically.Those that unwillingly, due to ignorance or just plain stupidity,cross the border and think that the democrat party has their self interest at heart are pawns.If my Dad was alive today these illegals would not have his support when breaking the law of the land.He would advise them to become legal residents by the book.He would tell them that it will be hard but the rewards will outweigh the hardships.He would tell them to learn to speak English.Lying to illegals,the elderly & to women has become part of the Democrat hand book to stay empowered politically.This message will someday seep in the hearts of those being taken advantage of but until then we must not compromise our conservative core values of limited government,self reliance and traditional family values.
Well this was an original article. …I suppose that when we take a look at things that we don’t like in this world, we find all the more reasons to be thankful for those things we do like, and all the more reasons to praise the Lord for bringing good out of everything.

I fully agree with daveferguson. We can talk and moan about this all day, but in the end, if we aren’t going to do anything about it, we should just shut up and go home. That said, I have to assume that someone, somewhere is considering this very question. Better to do your homework and have a plan than to jump out there and do something stupid that ends in a situation worse and more restrictive than that under which we currently find ourselves.
