How to win the Nobel Peace Prize in 12-days Barack Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize earlier this week. Over the last decade the only requirement to win the prize was that the nominee had to be critical of George W. Bush (see Al Gore, Mohamed El Baradei and Jimmy Carter). President Obama has broken [...]
I am going to voice my opion about something. Why does President-Elect Barack Obama have to stick his damn nose into everything. I don’t remember where I was reading this, but I read somewhere that Obama wants to implement a College Football playoff system. Everyone else wants to do this as well, but that is [...]
I have been thinking about this a lot recently. And since I mentioned in a comment on another blog that I would write a blog about the Patriot Act, here it goes. I think that the United States Patriot Act is one of the most tyrannical pieces of legislation ever passed in the history of [...]
Yesterday, I was watching a Television show where they were talking with some of the people involved in polygamy. Experts say that there are anywhere from 30,000 to 50,000 people living in some type of plural marriage family. Oprah did an interview with one of the families. She was talking to each of the 3 [...]
I don’t really know where to get started, but once I do, Mike and Denise will both have comments to make about what I say. In case I have not mentioned before, I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Today, in Sunday School, we had a lesson about righteous [...]

This phenomenon kind of also backs up one of my beliefs. My belief is that I think Global Warning [...]
I meant to blog about this sooner, but just kept putting it off. After browsing Mike’s blog, I decided to finally put mine up. I am a big fan of Mitt Romney, and I am a little bit upset that he pulled out of the race for the Republican Party nomination. Recently, I was hoping [...]
I have never really gotten into politics. However, since I started blogging and especially since I started reading Mike’s Blogs, then I have started to get into politics more than I previously have been. Thanks Mike, it has been fun and I hope to continue.
The next time you hear a politician use the word ‘billion’ in a casual manner, think about whether you want the ‘politicians’ spending your tax money. A billion is a difficult number to comprehend, but one advertising agency did a good job of putting that figure into some perspective in one of it’s releases. A billion seconds ago it was [...]
If a bill that comes out of Congress in June ever passes and is signed into law, then a new federal bureaucracy would be formed to manage the complicated new tax called cap & trade.
