There are a lot of great Alltel phones out there. They are almost caught up to Verizon and Cingular at this point, as well they should be. They are in the eyes of most one of the top three cell phone providers in the country. Choosing a few of the best out of so many selections was difficult but there are some that stand out more than others, so here goes.

“I do not want to speak ill of a veteran. I respect what you did. But when you critize the man who saved you, it comes down to this: This man’s a war hero, what did you do over there? Zero… You almost got shot, you are not a hero in this war shit, not even a hero to the party that fed you this horseshit, twisted and polluted your values, don’t you remember when those soldiers almost had you? Lucky to be alive, talking about family values?

The Democrats are against the War in Iraq? Since when?

We all remember the Lieberman attack, which was fair… but this party aspires to an identity it can never claim. You cannot take back those votes. You had a chance and plenty of time to debate and you leafrogged that and anything resembling political sanity because you simply trusted a Republican President so much that you had to give him the ability to overcome checks and balances on this one?

Kerry cannot say he made a mistake so he attacks the war in Iraq but when asked says “I still would have done it, only differently.”

It seems to me that we have two sets of laws in this country. The laws that apply to protect man and those that exist to guide him along a preselected path of living chosen by our politicians-usually to in some way match their own. It is the latter I wish to talk about here. I think we need to examine some of our morality laws and ask ourselves what the intention is of those that committ these crimes, and most importantly of all to contrast their intentions with our own. Because my friends I see similar intentions all across the board!

Had no one checked the stats on this one? Had they voted to go to war and ultimately take over a county they knew nothing about?

Democracy…. Did they think it was going to be easy to install in Iraq?

The year right now is 2006. Raise you hand if you would work for 5.15. Nobody? Wrong crowd. But there are those who would, trust me. They just don’t read too much, which I don’t mind (don’t get me wrong there are plenty who can). Try to imagine living off of that, being a homeless person having to rely on that 5.15 to get back on track…. Not pretty, is it?

Imagine this scenario: you are watching the news and they go to a protest rally in China. Students are protesting for women’s rights and start burning the flag. Immediatly armed military men come into the scene and grab the protestors. The reporter then says that this was done because such protest is illegal in China. What would you think of that? Nothing good, right?

Judicial branch? What judicial branch?

This vernacular frustrates in the extreme. “The procedures must be fair,” Gonzalez said to the Senators, “but also must reflect that we are still at war and that our men and women on the front lines operate in a war zone, not in the controlled environment of an F.B.I. forensics lab.”
