STUFF I NEED TO GET OFF MY CHEST

1. The SWINE Flu - Yes, I said swine flu!. We call it "The Schvine" here. This is the latest in a series of moronic overblown "news". 40, 000 people die every year from all influenza in the U.S. alone, let alone world-wide, so what was the big deal here? Who knows. It's as bad as 24/7 coverage of a 6" snowfall - in Wisconsin!

2. Who should run the Republican Party - One would think that the Demokrats (I used the "k" intentionally) would be basking in the glow of the last election and attempt to bury the ailing GOP. But, no, they insist on running even the Republican party as well as all the banks and two of the three U.S. car companies. The GOP did exactly what the Dems wished in the last election and they (not "we" - I am NOT a Republican) lost. McCain is not a conservative. He's barely a moderate. So, for the Dems to tell the GOP to become more moderate to win elections is the very thing the GOP shot not do.

3. If the Dems are so confident in their policies why aren't they traveling the country bragging up the latest budget and telling us how great the economy is and how low the unemployment rate is and etc., instead of bashing radio talkers and bloggers who do not make policy?

4. Ryan Braun, the Milwaukee Brewers' left fielder is a stud! He's even got pitchers throwing at and hitting him in the head! How cool is that?

5. Brett Favre, STAY RETIRED ALREADY! After the 2007 season, you had all of Wisconsin and the NFL eating out of your huge hand after sixteen loyal seasons in Green Bay. You could have been elected Governor for life. Now, your just another egotistical, money-grubbing aging athlete. Enough is enough!

Man, that felt good!

I agree about Farve. He could have gone out on such a high note...

You make some great points John. I am tired of hearing about the swine flu and every time I see Farve I just shake my head. He should have stayed retired.
