YouTube - UNICEF, MTV EXIT and The Killers: Goodnight, Travel Well.
I can’t really stand the corruption in the UN and the fact that they are in serious need of some cahones! But they have some good messages out there. This video is The Killer’s “Goodnight, Travel Well” and it’s promoting awareness about sex trafficking. Wow. Just wow. That was a powerful tune for this video.
listening to The Killers a lot this week! Wonder what that’s about!
I find I am constantly being asked to drink Kool-aid. But what if I like grape juice? What if I want purple? I find it odd that these days, many of my conservative brothers and sisters are very quick to basically say you’re either with us or you’re against us! Is there no more room for free thought? This is the entire reason why I started this blog. I DISAGREE >.< And I’d like to hope that more people begin to disagree as well. We don’t have to accept one mantra or the other like zombies. Questions SHOULD be allowed. Questioning is the beginning of wisdom (Lt. Cm Worf, TNG). I wonder did the founding fathers sit around and say to themselves, “Well, the main thing we want to accomplish when we create this constitution is to have people stop thinking. This is the end of it. It’s said and done. No new human knowledge will occur after this point NATURALLY! They don’t need BRAINS per se, just an ability to hold up signs with stuff we said on it!” Yes, this would have been Jefferson’s finest hour o.O? My people, we’ve got to be willing to think . . . unafraid to think . . . to dream . . . to have vision. Just because Barack Obama “coined” hope and change does not mean that those are now “dirty” words. The Republican party NEEDS to change. Not to become appeasers, but to be unafraid to examine and defend our ideas on an intellectual level. And we also need to be unafraid to allow the young, urban conservative to join in and share their expertise of what is happening on the front lines of the inner city!
I am still trying to figure out what the objective of our two wars are. End terrorism? Not gonna happen. (and to me this means that the Taliban can resurface at anytime even after being decimated) Regional stability? Also not gonna happen IMO. So where is the end? I am not sure. Don’t get me wrong, I am 100 percent in favor of hunting down terrorists in general and also 100 percent in favor of fighting ideologies that subjugate women and . . . oh . . . threaten to KILL us! But what is Obama’s plan?!?! He has an exit strategy in case the inevitable shit hits the fan, but is he even considering the case of Europe? What’s happening there? Not much war! But immigration and lax standards have created a boiling pot. And all the Europeans need to do to get boiled out of their own pot is to allow people to continually move into their countries and push for their own anti-liberal ideologies to take hold. Is this Swiss vote a sign of a turning tide in Europe? If so, will Obama, the first Ameripean president, and his congress of wackos catch on and tighten up our borders and appeasing policies? Doubtful. America is on the late train!
Yum-tastic!
It’s a yum-tastic random holiday treat I found here:
