For most of my commentary career, I will periodically rail against someone like Britney "Mother of the Year" Spears, Linsey HO-han...I mean, Lohan, Jessica "Undercarriage" Simpson, or the other bevy of female celebrities who flaunt their 'goodies' with no remorse.
I have attacked morons like Lindsey Lohan for weighing 25 pounds and announcing she is trying to lose a few more pounds. I have questioned the popularity of people like Spears and Simpson and Christina Aguilara...and why so many parents look the other way.
I have verbally fought Eminem, 50 Cent, Kanye, and all these other cRappers for their disgusting lyrics and even worse videos that devalue women, meanwhile teaching all kids that women are only worth how often they share themselves with others, men and or women.
In addition, I have supported positive role models...sadly they are few and far between. I have also stood up for people who are attacked unfairly. A couple years ago, Jennifer Love Hewitt was attacked for being fat when she clearly was not even close to being fat. I think the attacks on Britney's appearance at the MTV VMAs two years ago was unfair and gave even more negative messages to little girls everywhere.
So, out of nowhere, I see this news story. It is about Emma Watson, one of the stars of the Harry Potter series of movies. She recently turned 18, and the sicko paparazzi was right there, and as she admitted, there were members taking full advantage of her now-legal status and trying to snap revealing pictures, including paparazzi lying on their backs attempting an up-skirt shot.
Emma Watson does not want to be classified as "sexy." She refuses to don the revealing low-cut tops and high-cut skirts. She dresses conservative, values education, and wants to continue to work and better herself, even though she could live off the fortune the Harry Potter series made possible.
This blog is not to say she is perfect...I am not Chris Matthews and she is not Obama...no tingly feelings here...I am merely pointing out that it is cool and it is good to have morals, decency, and modesty.

The Lipstick of Doom
"The difference between a hockey mom and a pitbull...Lipstick."
The famous, oft-repeated joke that Sarah Palin made in reference to herself, and other Alaskan hockey moms, at the Republican National Convention last week. The comment has been played, repeated, looped, and Youtubed a million times over. There is no way on Earth that his campaign did not hear and understand the comment.
Yet, Barack Obama, as he paused, stammerred, and "uh"-ed his way through a campaign stop in Virginia yesterday, he made a very snide remark and went below the belt on the McCain-Palin ticket.
His comment, which is an old saying, was that "You can put lipstick on a pig...{dramatic pause as he allows the crowd to 'get it' and laugh}...but it's still a pig."
For me, I have to conceed that it is in fact an old saying. However, his decision to use it, and then include the long pause for the crowd to get the joke, shows just how rattled he and his campaign really are.
There has been a 23 percentage-point swing in the last 10 days in a crucial area of Obama's demographic. Women, scorned by Obama being the nominee and then not even vetting or considering Hillary for his VP, are flocking to the energy, family-values, and inspiring story of Sarah Palin.
And Obama blatantly calls her a pig on the campaign stump.
For conversation's sake, let me pose this hypothetical, despite the fact that the likelihood of this being fact is minimal. Let's just say that Obama was not taking a swipe at Palin. Let's just say the "lipstick on a pig" comment was meant at face value and not a play on a largely famous comment from just one week prior. Let us say the comment is innocent in nature and not a swipe. Let's just say that.
So, now, we see just how poorly Barack Obama's judgement is working. Knowing the sensitive situation he is in with the way the media has lashed out and attacked Palin, he had to have known how his lipstick comment would be recieved. He HAD to have known that saying such a thing would be taken hard by many people. He HAD to have known.
Yet, he showed his typical poor judgement. The same poor judgement he used in choosing his pastor of 20 years. The same poor judgement in the people he has been closly associated with. The same poor judgement he used in talking about how the surge has been a failure. The same poor judgement, and possibly poor intelligence, he showed when talking about visiting the 56 or 57 states.
Either way, it shows the simple fact most people can already see, despite the attempts of NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, MTV, and the left-wing blogosphere to smear and destroy the Republicans, that Barack Obama does not have the judgement, intelligence, and leadership ability to lead our country.
He called Palin a pig. Plain and simple. He refuses to focus on the issues alone, instead he takes cheap, below-the-belt swipes at the VP candidate and not his opponent. He will not tell us his solutions, other than he won't repeat what George W. Bush has done. So, he calls the VP candidate a pig. Well, I think he just showed that he is a chicken.

I'm Still a Guy...Part 2 of 2
These days, too many males are shirking their responsibilities as men. They are "men" when its time to get a girl naked, yet they run and bury their head in the sand the second their romp ends up in conception. Males are all but happy to perform the fun part with as many women who are naive enough to participate, yet there are so many biological fathers who run like a 4 year old from a broken lamp to shirk their responsibility.
Any male that is not a strong influence and role model for his children is not a man. No MAN has ever not accepted his duty as a father. Children need a man in their lives. It teaches boys how to be a man, and it teaches girls what a man should be like and what not to accept as a man in her life.
Children need a man in their lives as much as they need a woman. This is not sexist, this is fact. The man is just as influencial in a child's life as is a woman. For balance, security, role-modelling, and structure, a child need its father as much, and in some areas, more than, the mother. However, not just any male can be a father. A father has to be a MAN. A man has to be a stallwart and a person in which children can hold high esteem.
The character of a real man is based in responsiility. A man finds and provides food, shelter, security, and stability for his family. Sometimes, this can involve a woman's help, either financially through her work, or in other ways. However, it is a natural instinct for the man to be the breadwinner. A man needs to be responsible for ensuring a warm plate of food on the table, a sturdy roof overhead, a safe place in which to live and eat, and a strong environment in which the family can grow and prosper.
A man's responsibility is also to model God-fearing, God-serving, and Christ-like practices in all that he does. A boy will watch his father more intently than imaginable in those early formitive years. It is the man's responsibility to model appropriate behavior for the son to model, as well as for the daughter to become accustomed to so that she seeks the same in her mate later on in life.
No MAN has ever hit a woman. Re-read that statement. No one who is a man has ever laid his hands on a woman in a violent manner. If you hit a woman, you are not a man. If you strike anyone in any manner other than legitimate self-defense, you are not a man. No bully can also be a man.
A man must love his wife and his family without equivocation or doubt. The man must devote himself to the happiness and security of his wife and children. The way in which he treats his wife is going to be, in most cases, the way the son treats his wife in the future. If a man loves, honors, and respects his wife, his son will do the same. Just as importanly, his daughter will expect the same and not settle for less. The converse is true as well. If a man disrespects, cheats on, or otherwise does not appreciate his wife, his children will mimmick the behavior in their relationships.
So, to all members of the male species, it is time to reassert ourselves. It is time to fight the feminization of our kind and take our rightful places as real, big, hairy, stinky, sweaty, competitive, risk-taking men. It is time to show all these little boys what a man REALLY is...

I'm Still a Guy...
Brad Paisley currently has a song on the charts simply called, "I'm Still a Guy." It is a simply, funny, testosterone and masculinity infested song that reminds us of what is wrong with society.
In a less humorous but even more poingiant work, Dr. James Dobson looks at the eroding ideals of maleness and masculinity in his book, Bringing Up Boys.
The issues and themes that the song and the book have in common is that there is a constant, successful, and damaging attack on maleness and what it means to be a MAN. Our society is destroying and eradicating what it is that naturally makes men and women different.
This blog is a two-part series of my opinions of the lack of real “men” in our world’s society. Of course, this is the type of thing that is a broad generalization. There is no rule or implication of a rule of society. However, this two-part blog is an indictment of society as a whole. Everyday you might be able to see or hear about exceptions to this blog and its ideas. Nonetheless, on the whole, this blog, I think, accurately describes and investigates the castration of society.
No longer are men celebrated as being hairy, brutish, strong, cocky, competitive, and instinctive leaders. Men are supposed to be full of estrogen and "think" and "feel" and exfoliate and moisturize and remove excess hair. Men are becoming women and women are becoming the middle ground, somewhat masculine, yet still a hint of femininity. Men, however, are constantly derided for having masculinity and defining themselves as different than women.
Males within the human species are becoming de-gendered. There are these metro-sexuals that are blurring the lines between gay and straight, man and woman. It is adversely affecting our society.
We, as human beings, are not decedents of metro-sexual cavemen. We are not the end result of generations of humans who did not differentiate the sexes. Humans come from male hunters and gatherers, and from female home makers.
Now, do not get me wrong. There is NOTHING wrong with women in the workplace. There is no problem and I hold no grudge or ill-will towards a two-working-parent household. I am not sexist, nor am I anti-woman. To accuse me of being sexist and anti-woman would be incredibly ridiculous and far off from my point.
The point of this blog is to call on males to recapture what it is to be a MAN. Men are supposed to get sweaty. Men are supposed to get their hands dirty. Men are hunters and gatherers. Men are competitive. Men do not use loofa sponges. Men do not get pedicures and manicures and facials. Men do not get botox injections. Men, at least those who are not Olympic swimmers, do not shave from nose to toes. Men do not pluck their eyebrows.
We have a severe lack of masculinity in our society. Society worked best when there were clear definitions of what a man was and what a woman was. Boys today have instincts to be little men, yet they have no one to look to in order for them to channel their masculine energies into becoming strong and capable men.
Part two will be posted tomorrow. Please feel free to comment about your feelings.

Flava Flav!!! God Help Us!
Flipping through late-night TV while I tried to unwind at work, I happened on reruns of "Flava of Love." Of course, this is the second or third season where Flava Flav is looking for his true love. Then, I got to thinking...
Why is this guy so popular?
Why are so many attractive women fighting to be with this guy?
Why is he relavent today?
I don't get people. I really don't get what the big deal is that everyone just thinks that this idiot is so great. the guy looks like a cockroach with a stupid clock handing from his neck and a moronic crown on his shrunken head.
And women fight to be with him
Which shows me something about women today. Most women...MOST, not all...are more competitive than any man ever dreamed. If you put 50 women on an island and only one man...they would kill each other for his attention. It doesn't matter if he looked like the ugly dude that was in the dungeon in the movie "The Three Musketeers," (the Charlie Sheen, Chris O'Donnell, Oliver Platt, Keifer Sutherland version from the 90's...if you've seen it, you know who I am talking about.) It wouldn't matter if he was some homless bum with a matted beard and greasy hair...if he was the only man, the women on the island would throw themselves at him like he was the world's biggest stud muffin.
Which leads me to another conclusion. Sadly, in our society, despite the feminine movement and everything, women today have no self-esteem. Because of the way they are portrayed on TV, in movies, and in music videos, women are shown to have no value unless they are sleeping with someone. So, when you limit their choices to one man, they automatically need his attention to feel self worth. Even a goof like me, who has no chance of walking into a club and being chosen over every other guy there, could be coveted by the most attractive women if you make it a competition.
Women cannot stand rejection, even if it is by someone they ordinarily wouldn't want. Women cannot stand to lose, even if the competition isn't something they would logically want to win. Women cannot stand to be left out of the circle of attention.
These are generalized statements...there are some women out there who are strong enough to rise above letting how men use them to determine their self-worth. However, they care constantly attacked for feeling that way and for standing up for what they feel.
I just think our society is in very serious trouble. I think women need to value themselves as more than walking, talking blow-up dolls and find men who treat them as such. And more men need to start thinking above the belt...
But what do I know?

Women! Listen!
I wanted to discuss an important topic.
Ladies.
Yes, ladies. I am making some generalizations in this little rambling, but I think about everyone could take something out of what I am saying. I might sound like I am on some kind of high horse...and maybe I am. But I think this needs to be said and repeated over, and over and over and over...
The reason this is such an issue is that there is a serious lack of ladies in the world today. Even fewer little girls will grow up to be ladies in the years to come.
By lady, I mean a woman who is confident, modest, strong, and values herself as a person and refuses to be objectified as a "piece." I mean a woman who is strong enough to live and be happy without selling her body for acceptance and "love."
Too often, on TV, in movies, in songs, in every aspect of life, girls are taught that letting a boy have his way with them is acceptable and encouraged. Girls are ingrained with the idea that sex is their only asset to get what they think they want. And what they think they want is also ingrained by the same venues that teach them that they are only as good as the amount of cleavage they show or partners they have.
So, today, as a man, I want to stop the trend. I don't want some easy tramp who thinks the only way I might love her is if she sleeps with me. I don't want some woman who is incomplete by herself and needs to feel wanted, and they stoop to any level to get that feeling of want, even if it is misguided and more lust than true want.
Instead, what I want is a woman with confidence. A woman who knows that she is more that just a notch on a bedpost. A woman who thinks for herself and doesn't buy into the idea that showing more and giving more is the right way to live. A woman with morals. A woman with her head on straight. Someone who can intrigue me without unbuttoning her blouse.
Women, its time to stand up for yourselves. Stop letting yourself get walked on and treated as a piece of tail. You have so much more to offer. Be proud of who you are and be strong. Stop listening to what 50 Cent or Ludacris or Eminem or any of 1,000 singers might say...stop looking at movies and TV shows....you can still watch and enjoy them, but stop learning their misguided lessons.
Girls today have lost the innocence and modesty that makes women so incredible. High school girls compete for lovers and numbers of partners like boys used to only claim to have done in locker rooms. Far too many girls are running out of fingers to count their partners on before they get a high school diploma. Too many girls are under the impression that it is okay to be promiscuous and to dress in revealing and slutty clothes. Too many girls are growing up as cheap, easy, incomplete people whose life consists of too high an emphasis on sex.
Girls might want to blame guys...say guys are the reason because guys are brought up to think the same thing. To an extent, the girls do have a point. However, girls, it is up to you to take a stand and teach the boys that you are worth more than that. Stop giving in to the cute guys just because they are cute. Stop giving yourself away and stop degrading and devaluing yourself.
And guys...stop thinking with your penis. It is almost as much our fault for acting like sex-craved horn-dogs as it is the girls' fault for giving in and rewarding that kind of weakness. It is a far stronger man that waits to have sex for love then have sex for fun.
Having sex can be fun...but it can be so much more. It can be truly fulfilling and truly gratifying if you wait for the right partner and the right reasons. Having sex is not a way to create love where it doesn't exist, nor is it a way to extend a relationship. Sex is not an avenue to keep a person you care about with you. If you have to go to bed to keep someone, then they obviously do not value you enough. So, don't give in to pressure. That is not love, and that is not healthy.
We have become a free-sex society and it is tragically destroying our world and any semblance of morality. Guys and girls, stop going to bed with people you aren't married to. If you wait until there is a real sense of love and meaning between partners, everything will be so much better.
Ok, I am off the high horse now...but I am still right.

Liberal Activist Judges....
In case you haven't heard, liberalism hit a new low this week. A convicted and confessed child rapist was given the softest sentence possible.
Raping a girl repeatedly over a 4 year period will earn the rapist only 60 days in jail. SIXTY. TWO MONTHS. As with all liberal whining, Judge Edward Cashman said he does not believe in punishment. He believes in rehab. He believes that this scum is a low risk repeat offender.
How in the hell does that figure? If it was a one time event in a drugged out stupor, I could see, but not agree with, the conclusion. BUT! HE IS A REPEAT OFFENDER. He raped that little girl many, many times over the course of 4 years. To me, Repeat involves doing a crime more than once. Thus, he repeatedly raped this girl. There is the real possibility that this scumbag is serving one day per rape. How sad is that?
This is sick and extremely sad. This is where the modern day liberal is headed. Oh, yeah, there's outrage now, but Cashman will be thought of as a pioneer in 5-10 years. Liberals love the rights of the criminals. Screw the victims.
Who is the criminal? Remember this name. If you ever see or meet this scum, hock a loogie in his face. This scum, I refuse to call him a man because I call myself a man and men do not rape little girls, is named Mark Hulett, age 34, of Williston, Vt. If I ever came across this scum, I might be sent to prison longer for assaulting him (because I would kick the ever loving shit out of him) than he is going for RAPE.
(Editorial note: This story made it to Bill O'Reilly and the "No Spin Zone," and within a few days, the barrage of phone calls and emails to the Governor's office in Vermont was too much. The ridiculous sentence was changed. )

Happy New Year 2006!
Happy New Year!
Just an idea...this goes out to my women friends. Please tell two of your friends, and tell them to tell two more and so on.
Stop letting yourselves be cheapened.
Stop letting yourself be convinced that you have to look slutty and or act slutty to get a man's attention or to get somewhere in life. Stop encouraging my fellow menfolk to think from their zippers by giving in to their childish demands.
Stop being so forgiving of men for cheating. Cheating is the ultimate hurt and insult. Forgiving is just slightly different than encouraging. Forgiving a cheater gives them control...gives them the power to cheat more often because they know they have you around their finger.
Stop acting like the women on TV. Women, like us males, have so few positive role models. The only time a woman should let a man into her bed on the first date is if that first date didn't come until after they fell in love and were married.
I am not trying to be holier-than-thou. I am not trying to insult or berate or come down on. It is merely an idea I propose. I did, in fact, lose a friend of three years over a difference in ideas over the summer...so I know how overreacted people can get. But I hope you can take this in the spirit in which it is intended.
Happy New Year! May God bless your 2006.
Just an idea...this goes out to my women friends. Please tell two of your friends, and tell them to tell two more and so on.
Stop letting yourselves be cheapened.

The Self Image of Young Girls...It's Scary.
Does this look like someone who needs to drop a few pounds? Didn't think so. But Lindsay Lohan believes that if she went arm to twiglike arm with some of her fellow streamlined starlets, she'd look like she was carrying extra baggage.
"... Compared to a lot of actresses my age, I'm actually overweight," the alarmingly slimmed-down teen queen tells Teen Vogue. "There are so many really, really thin girls out there."
(Perhaps one of them could give the once super-shapely beauty a mirror and a grilled cheese sandwich. Too mean? All right, moving on ...)
Lohan has dismissed eating-disorder whispers, attributing her skin-and-bones bod to a loss of "baby fat," and she tells the magazine she "feels good" about her new figure because "you can fit into more things."--This is an article online on MSN.com.
Wow.
Lindsey Lohan used to be a very attractive girl. Now, she is sickeningly thin.And on top of that, she is obviously sick in the head too. She thinks she could lose a few pounds? WHERE??
And, as a pop-culture princess, what the hell is she doing to little girls around the world with her comments?
Folks, its time to stop the thin is in craze. Its perfectly okay to want to be fit and healthy...but to drop to a point where your only cleavage is actually ribs poing through, that is a major problem.
Girls today keep getting the wrong messages...and they keep buying it. I can guarentee at least one girl will be directly affected by Lohans comments and will die from starving herself to be that sickeningly thin. I guarentee Lindsey Lohan's irresponsible comments and example will result in one family burying a young girl who thought that "just a few more pounds" wouldn't hurt.
Thanks, Linsey, for yet another great example of what girls need to grow up thinking.
We need more Mia Hamms...more Kathy Irelands...more Serena Williamses...more women who demonstrate that women can weigh over 100 pouinds, be healthy, and still look good.

Publicly and Judicially Endorsed MURDER!
March 30, 2005-- Terri Schiavo's Death Sentence
Everyone is talking about it, so let me join the crowd. (Which is something I usually try not to do, hence I have never seen any of the Lord of the Rings movies, read or watched Harry Potter, or cheered for the New York Yankees...hate bandwagons.)
First, I want to send my condolences to anyone who knows Terri and is suffering as a result of her long murder. Her situation is a tragic one that we must all learn from and prevent from happening again.
Now, to the many issues at hand within this case.
Unfortunately, many people have forgotten one simple concept in this case: Terry Schiavo is a human being...a woman...a life...someone with a beating heart...working organs...a human. Too many judges and too many others in power, and too many others throughout the world, have forgotten this simple fact. Why is this concept hard to grasp? Or, do the people who fight for the "end of this case" need to forget that simple fact so they can live guilt free when she does succumb to the murder? Is it easier to think of her as a "case" and not a human? Is that how one can eat dinner with their own family...their own daughters...by neglecting to remember the fact that Terri is a person?
After that sad fact, we have to consider why we are here today? Why is there such a rush to yank her feeding tube out and let her starve? Pope John Paul II is receiving a feeding tube as we speak...why not yank it out? Yes, there have been 19 judges in 11 courts who have "looked at" this case over the past seven years. However, only once, seven years ago, has this case been thoroughly examined. ONCE. Since then, Terri Schiavo's desperate parents have been fighting to keep her alive and try to get her the necessary rehab to bring her back to a higher standard of living. Then, once the feeding tube was removed nearly two weeks ago, the US Congress fought to pass a law to allow the federal courts to open the files, testimonies, and hold a "di novo" review...a complete, thorough, head to toe look at everything in and around Terri Schiavo's case.
What did Judge George Greer and his colleagues do? Thumb their nose at the US Congress and the President of the United States by taking less than 13 hours from the passing of the law to write a rejection of the review. Greer forgot that TERRI IS A HUMAN BEING.
Terri's parents, siblings, and family counselors have been joined by Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, and even Jesse Jackson, in the fight. Governor Jeb Bush and President George W. Bush have fought hard within the law to help Terri Schiavo. However, an out-of-control judiciary has taken over the nation...and the liberal media and liberal leadership over the past 50 years has allowed and fought to allow this. The judiciary, legislative, and executive branches are supposed to be of SEPARATE BUT EQUAL powers...not the legislative and executive branches bowing before the mighty gavel and robe. Perhaps this is lesson one from Terri Schiavo.
Perhaps this is agenda item number one for America to fix once we recover from this situation.
For me, there are two very, very scary ideas that are coming out of this situation. First, the most heart-wrenching and sickening thought is that Terri Schiavo is NOT in a Permanent Vegetative State, a claim made by an accomplished neurologist and several nurses who have been treated Terri, and instead there is a woman, fully aware, trapped in a failing body as she starves to death. I am worried that because of the denied rehab that could have brought Terri back to a more prominent level of consciousness, she is mentally locked in a prison within her body. Can you imagine how scary that would be? How overwhelming that could be? To be trapped in that situation with a husband fighting to kill you off once and for all? To see your family weeping and praying at your bedside, the whole time you are fighting to tell you mom, "I love you, don't worry mom."? We do not know beyond a shadow of a doubt that she isn't in pain...that she isn't suffering...that she isn't fully aware of what is being done to her. We do not know. That is what Congress and the President wanted to accomplish on Palm Sunday: find out for sure before she is killed.
Now you might be one of those who whines that Congress and President Bush overstepped their bounds...they should not have gotten involved in this case because the federal government does not belong mettling in personal, private, state affairs. I believe that the involvement of Washington was because Bush and the Republicans saw the big picture...they saw the second thing that scares me about this sad situation...they saw the looming question that could haunt and destroy our country in the years to come. That dark question that none of the judges nor anyone else who is on the death-to-Terri side will, or can, answer is: Where does it stop?
Where does it stop?
If we allow Terri Schiavo to die like this, where will this type of medical "treatment" be stopped? Where and when will the limits be drawn? If we can take the word of an adulterous husband as proof positive of a wish to die, what kind of a Pandora's box is now open?
Perhaps this can open up a way to fix social security. Perhaps we can start killing off seniors who are in less-than-conscious states by cutting them off from food and hydration. Perhaps we can starve children with down syndrome? Where will it stop? Yes I am predicting a slippery slope, and you might scoff now. But, in 20 years, where will the murder of Terri Schiavo put us as a society?
Based on this case, someone who has serious Alzheimer's can be euthanized because they once said they wouldn't want to live that way. A mentally retarded individual can be euthanized because a legal guardian decides it is what is best. A severely mangled car accident victim can be killed because they would not want to live with the scars and injuries...according to a guardian.
Based on this case, a spouse with an obvious conflict of interest (i.e. a new common-law wife and two kids) can determine your medical treatment and decide to have you euthanized.
We are headed in a wrong direction. Terri Schiavo is not the first, and, unfortunately, won't be the last. However, her situation is the most crucial because it has become so well known. It is in the public forum, and we, as a society need to make some serious decisions. We do...and not heartless, humanless judges hiding behind a gavel and a bench.
There is so much more to this situation....too much. A woman is dying because her husband wants her to. She has not gone through the rehab she needs to see if she can recover. Her husband has left her to rot in her body and now wants her gone so he can continue his adulterous relationship. And, with her death, she will immediately be cremated and her ashes taken to Pennsylvania...just one more slap in the face and dagger to the heart of her family. Also, and more vile, the cremation will prevent anyone from knowing for sure how Terri fell into her condition...perhaps because Michael Schiavo has something to hide.
