American People Agree With the Iraq Report?

I do not know one person who has actually read that thing. To say American People agree with the report is absolutely crazy. Funnies part is the author states that 39% agree with report. Hence the others who disagree or did not know what it was are not Americans (for you steve).

Why I Have This Blog

Is to point out news like this. This is just another example of government organizations making choices for me. If I ran a restaurant - I should be able to choose if I use trans fat. I should be able to choose if I want to put the number of calories next to my menu items. Then it should be up to the customers if they want to eat at my restaurant knowing that I do or do not use trans fat or if I do or do not display calories next to my items. This law says people are too stupid to know what is good for them, and they need to be saved by the goverment. Individual's choices are becoming fewer and fewer and it really really frustrates me. Why do liberal cities like this think goverments are better at making decisions as opposed to individals? What happened to personal responsibility? If the goverment left this alone then restaurants may have switched over on their own (KFC). The market is a powerful force and if people decided on thier own to eat at places that dont use trans fat then more and more restaurants would make the switch. I wish the goverment would just leave people alone, and let us make our own choices.

Socialism Works Every Time

So Venezuela should be just fine. Nothing to worry about there. They have all the ingrediants for success (Chavez, Socialism, allied with Iran, Cuba). I respect that culture.
