In all fairness to you, my readers (all glorious 3 of you), I will cease any activity on this site effective immediately. I am currently working ... (more) Dear Devoted Readers
Happy Independence Day!
Happy Independence Day!
righteousrantings.blogspot.com — I will offer you today no inspiring words or stories, the muse is not upon me. However, I will give you my best wishes for you and your family on this, our country's 233rd birthday! Now, on to the news: So, Palin has resigned as Governor. Wow. Her interesting and vague statement regarding ... (more) Happy Independence Day!
Gay Rights, Or The "Carrot On A Stick" For The Left
Gay Rights, Or The "Carrot On A Stick" For The Left
righteousrantings.blogspot.com — For about two decades now, the Left has been promising one of it's constituent groups their fair share of rights, but they've taken very little real action to prove their good intentions. Gay Rights have been dangled out in front of the Gay Community every election cycle like clockwork to ... (more) Gay Rights, Or The "Carrot On A Stick" For The Left
Properly Directed Outrage
righteousrantings.blogspot.com — I have seen today a lot of Right-wing sites criticizing Obama for taking his girls out for ice cream while Iran burns. The main cry from these sights has been "What if Bush did this?" Of course they are referring to the fact that the MSM would have been quite critical of such a thing and would ...

Iran's Turmoil And Obama
Iran's Turmoil And Obama
righteousrantings.blogspot.com — Well, on the lighter side, I guess we all have a momentary reprieve from the "threat" of an Iranian Nuclear Device. I suppose that everyone there in the various seats of theocratic power is busy dealing with those troublesome youths and their uppity ideas about fair elections and something ...

David Letterman's Shameful Remarks
David Letterman's Shameful Remarks
righteousrantings.blogspot.com — Recently, an indicator of our country's further social division reared it’s ugly head. David Letterman, a comedian of some note, made some rather horrific remarks in regards to Sarah Palin’s daughter. The disgraceful attempt at humor came during the opening monologue of the “Late Show” when ... (more) David Letterman's Shameful Remarks
The "Gun Run" And Obama
The "Gun Run" And Obama
righteousrantings.blogspot.com — I have heard a lot of buzz since November concerning Obama's alleged desire to eradicate Responsible Gun Ownership in this country. After some thought, this becomes almost a laughable idea. Consider the fact that of all the industries in this nation, the only "recession-proof" example is ... (more) The "Gun Run" And Obama
Memorial Day (A Promise Kept)
Memorial Day (A Promise Kept)
righteousrantings.blogspot.com — When I was in Iraq, I lost a very good friend. I will not say his name here as I do not have the family's permission to do so. Suffice it to say, he gave his life for the freedoms that we all enjoy and occasionally take for granted. In return, I will finally honor a promise made to him that I ...

A Note To Ms. Pelosi
A Note To Ms. Pelosi
righteousrantings.blogspot.com — Nancy, Nancy, Nancy. What are we going to do with you? I know that barring a catastrophic meltdown of the Democratic Party, you will be re-elected in perpetuity. After you finally pass the Cadaver's Rights Initiative, your mummified and exceptionally well preserved corpse will still have a ... (more) A Note To Ms. Pelosi
Obama's True Political Masters
Obama's True Political Masters
righteousrantings.blogspot.com — I want you to do me a favor. Humor me (because I suck at the whole "put in a video thing") and go to YouTube right quick and search for “crying hippies, trees” . Watch the corresponding video (it will be obvious when you find it…) and answer me this: What would the Black Vote think about ... (more) Obama's True Political Masters
Napolitano's "No Confidence"
Napolitano's "No Confidence"
righteousrantings.blogspot.com — It occurs to me that Department of Homeland Security Secretary Napolitano doesn’t realize one very important aspect of American Culture: Party lines are not drawn around families, they go through them. Within one immediate family, you can have Liberals and Conservatives. I married a Liberal, ... (more) Napolitano's "No Confidence"
The Elephant Is Getting Back Up
The Elephant Is Getting Back Up
righteousrantings.blogspot.com — The GOP is actually on the right path. This is suggested by the two pronged attack that we have begun to make in response to the current Administration’s reckless political behavior. The political sector of our Party is ridiculed as the “Party of No”. Ridicule, being what it is, is a good ... (more) The Elephant Is Getting Back Up
An Examination of Torture
An Examination of Torture
righteousrantings.blogspot.com — The subject of torture is a difficult one to broach and examine. Its inherent sensitivity renders it a particularly incendiary topic, and it presents some very unpleasant questions. As a former Marine Infantryman, I can recall how our intelligence units would interrogate certain detainees for ... (more) An Examination of Torture
The Human Clone's Imminent Arrival?
The Human Clone's Imminent Arrival?
righteousrantings.blogspot.com — At some point the Human Clone will be upon us, and we will learn to deal with this new facet of Human Existence. I’ve heard of many complaints and concerns surrounding the possibility that these beings will be without souls, and while I can not verify or deny these fears, I will refer to the ...

The Marijuana Question
The Marijuana Question
righteousrantings.blogspot.com — Today, I’m weighing in on the possible Legalization of Marijuana. Those of you (three, maybe four?) who have been reading me for a while now, might have noticed that I can deviate from the Party Line some when it comes to Social Conservatism. As such, it will come as no surprise when I say the ... (more) The Marijuana Question
Hard Times Ahead
Hard Times Ahead
righteousrantings.blogspot.com — Given the recent DHS report that seeks to demonize Veterans and other “Right-wing Extremists”, the poorly veiled smear from CNN on the coverage of the Tea Parties, and now the epitome of Mental Stability, Janine Garofalo insisting that we’re racist for protesting Big Government Spending, I fear ...

Understanding Our Fundamental Differences
Understanding Our Fundamental Differences
righteousrantings.blogspot.com — I’ve been meaning to do an examination of the fundamental differences between the thought processes of Liberals and Conservatives. In the spirit of Progressive Understanding, I figured that I could contribute to the dialogue by examining the two different methodologies of looking at any given ...

Another Example Of Legislative Idiocracy
Another Example Of Legislative Idiocracy
righteousrantings.blogspot.com — After viewing this video earlier today (thanks to a family friend…) I wondered if anyone in Washington D.C. ever actually bothers to read, consider, discuss, ask professionals about, or otherwise investigate any of the House Resolutions that come across their respective desks. I don’t ... (more) Another Example Of Legislative Idiocracy

Sorry about that, but...
righteousrantings.blogspot.com — I feel that I must apologize for my absence as of late. I have previously stated that I am not a professional Blogger and can only do this in my spare time. True, I have been busy as of late with my family and such, but I guess that I am also kind of sick of the “train wreck” that is our ... (more) Sorry about that, but...
