I have a few bones to pick with these congressional obstructionist on the Hill. America had an election and unfortunately, thanks to your gerrymandering your districts, you maintained majority in the house. I have to say though, that I think your party [Republican] are full of loose cannons. Who am I talking to? I’m speaking to the one and only House Speaker John Boehner, who won’t even attempt to pass a clean CR. Instead, they keep adding things to the budget. He’s been outspoken by Rand Paul, Ted Cruz, and other crazy #TeaParty garbage.
Of course the bills they are voting for must pass, such as providing benefits to our fallen heroes ability for their families to relieve payment for their sacrifice, but we shouldn’t be trying to fix this by funding one thing without funding another. WIC in North Carolina is running out of funds due to this shutdown, leaving many women and their children with out the much needed nutrients for their children.
NASA – Kennedy Space Center also got furloughed. I have to say about the people who work at NASA, not once have I read people ready to get back to work even if they’re not paid. Not only does this information tell me that your jobs are fun, but you have projects that you are working on that you do not want to delay. It’s also a fact that many NASA employees actually work from home, not because they sit on their asses, but because they communicate and I’m sure have their required software in their possession to carry on with their duties. Congressman Bill Posey of Rockledge voted for this #GOPShutdown and it’s been causing havoc all over the place. Thankfully they are SOME staff watching these multi-billion dollar machines we have flying out there.
And If I hear that Voyager I and Voyager II were affected – I’ll be out there holding signs making sure you loose your seat Congressman Bill Posey.
The grown men and woman we elect need to start acting like representatives and not tools that get whipped by the lobbyist.
AND FURTHER MORE: Stop saying in your speeches “the American people”. You need to worry about the people who elected you, because your views are not mine and I will remain an American.
OBAMA SHOULD HOLD HIS GROUND. WE KNOW WHO IS AT FAULT FOR THIS SHUT DOWN.

I have seen a number of “bloggers” causing trouble on Twitter lately. I was a victim of their persistent trolling. I’m going to be writing in the future about these particular people and groups. Many of these conservatives trolls have criminal records. Domestic violence, driving on a suspended license, being a repeat offender. Please keep in mind that these same people pledge that they are devout Christians that follow the will of their God.
These people on Twitter are not interested about the Kaitlyn Hunt case – a local case about a 18 year old senior dating a 14 year old freshman. The estimated difference in their ages is about 3½ years. Kaitlyn Hunt was in varsity sports where she meet “C. Smith”. A relationship ensued. Just as on a daily basis, many relationships blossom and then die, off and on, in high school. I think the conservatives here in town, including “C Smith’s” mother held the same rage as the parents had. “My daughter will not become a lesbian”. Paraphrased that.
Fast forwarding the the #ABC2020 interview was a real wide opener for me. If you really feel your daughter was subjected to abuse, you would be able to look at the camera and say how you feel. That fake cry when the text were mentioned did no justice. It made you look deceitful. It was very telling what the Sheriff said as well “this is a religious community and when these liberal activities happen it becomes talk of the town” (paraphrased that as well). I disagree that calling a particular behavior (being a lesbian) isn’t a liberal behavior – it’s human behavior.
What we have are bigoted, disgusting people that preach those who do not conform to them shall go to hell. Proved what I thought from the very beginning. The parents of the “victim” were upset that her daughter was dating another female student – and they used the laws to express their hatred and rage. And about those text. I was shocked when Jeremy Shepherd of the Indian River County Sheriffs Department, the primary detective on the case didn’t know who initiated the contact when he was on the stand, further more, where were the Smith’s while these text were going on and on and on? Why were they not able to keep such a close on on her? If there was a current court case going on at this magnitude, I would have always kept a close eye on my child. The Smith’s leave a nasty taste of deceit and villainy.
I think we can all agree Kaitlyn Hunt violated the law, but a misdemeanor is all that would have been required. Instead, it went on further. They, the Smith’s, took it further to promote their religious laws on others. Their own version of persecution where the law is their weapon that denounces the act of homosexuality with the utmost ferocity.
Indian River County has:
- 44,449 REPUBLICANS
- 27,111 DEMOCRATS
- 23,555 INDEPENDENTS
I’m not surprised by this nor the words that have been said on Twitter. These are the same people who are upset their precious gem Romney didn’t win the White House. These people are not patriots. They are faketriots and fell overboard into the “Stupidity Sea”.
I’m very glad that Kaitlyn Hunt did not apologize to the victims family. They are religious nut-jobs [zealots] that have done nothing but attempt to ruin Kaitlyn Hunt’s life and indirectly disrupting their daughters life. They are despicable human beings and they do not represent Lord Jesus or anything their religion represents.
I wish the best for both young ladies and to both your futures. May a new year bring new beginnings for you both.
