Congratulations!


The headline is what everyone hears on graduation day, but remember... The hat does not make you smarter. Even if you wear the hat the possibilities are if you are an idiot you'll still be an idiot but you'll be an idiot with a hat for that one day.

America's 2-step dancing (Proposition 8)

The New Year arrived with an amazing 2-step/ tango dance in the world of politics in America. Everyone all around the world is excited about the new president of the United States and the changes that he’s going to bring in American politics; but on the other hand who doesn’t love a good old dance of 2-step (one step forth and one step back.)

But let’s take it from the start. Along with all the significant changes in the “fascinating” world of politics, we should also give credit to the “green” people that kept fighting the good fight by keeping cows and pork away from their plate doing the best to save the environment, and the police forces in Greece using excessive force, that lead to the death of a 15 year old teenager, so as to keep the safety on the streets.

So, America got its first black president and it seems like it begins its liberation and democratization. But this small step forward was followed by a step backwards, with the Proposition 8 passing in the state of California. The protectmarriage.com website reads: "Only marriage between a man and a woman is valid and recognized in California." (http://www.protectmarriage.com , go there it's funny)

So, let me put it this way, if two married lesbians with a kid from Holland move to California, they are not classed as “married” but a couple of heterosexuals that might not give a damn about their kids is blessed by God as married?

It was only 42 years ago, 1967, when the same fuss has been raised about interracial marriage in the United States with the Supreme Court canceling a law enacted by a legislature so as to prevent white people from getting married with non-white people.

Let comedians be in charge of the world as the rest of the men who are supposed to be in charge it seems to blow it up big time, all the time.
