Remember when journalism was about facts and unbiased reporting? Yeah, me either.

Dear Chris Matthews and every other moron "journalist" out there - please learn the actual FACTS about Paul Ryan's Medicare plan before you go out and riff on them in public. NOTHING CHANGES FOR ANYONE 55 OR OLDER. PERIOD. Don't try to disparage or discredit the plan by talking about 80 year old people trying to find private insurance. It's flat out wrong, incorrect and either lazy or a deliberate lie. Knock it off. At least pretend to have some journalistic integrity.

Do people really not see the obvious logical fallacy in the party of Hollywood and high society screeching about the evil rich? So many of those who jumped on the "Occupy" bandwagon are the one percent.

Come on, people. Think.

And they call us the anti-intellectuals.

You know, Alec Baldwin promised to move if Bush won, and yet, Bush won and Baldwin just... didn't say anything about it again. We can't get rid of him.

Hey, all you RUN FROM THE SCARY GOP liberals, did you know that Steven Chu stated that his goal - not fear or prediction or expectation, not hope or even plan, his goal - is $10 a gallon gas. Ten. That's right, your precious president's Energy Secretary let it slip that the administration's goal is to make it impossible for most Americans to afford to drive a car. Never mind how many people will lose or have to quit their jobs because they can't physically get there anymore. Unemployment will skyrocket, foreclosures and bankruptcies will too, but none of that matters. We're Saving The Environment! Even When It Isn't At Risk! At Your Expense! Whether You Like It Or Not!

If Obama actually cared about creating jobs or reducing energy costs, he wouldn't have spent this morning on the phone nagging Democrats not to overturn his refusal to allow construction of the Keystone pipeline. All we needed were four Democrats to find their backbones and we would suddenly have 20,000 shovel-ready jobs on the immediate horizon.

Chu said when specifically asked that no, lowering costs is not the administration's goal. And when asked in his LOOK AT ME LOOK AT ME press conference (not coincidentally held on GOP Super Tuesday) if he wanted gas prices to go down, Obama said that of course, any president running for re-election wants prices to go down. HE'S PLAYING YOU, AMERICA, AND YOU AREN'T EVEN MAKING IT HARD FOR HIM.

But if you honestly believe we are better off with Mr. "I'd rather be golfing" Obama and his lovely wife Ms. "$10 million plus (and counting!) in taxpayer funded vacations" Michelle, then please. Move to Canada when the Republican wins in November. The fewer socialists we have to deal with in our democratic republic, the better.

I'm really kind of tired of having the ward expect me to be The Music Person, of being required to submit the music in advance, of being held responsible for planning it, and then having people do end runs around me to change things. I am tired of feeling stupid because no one tells me what the heck is going on. I am tired of having to just roll with it.

Seriously. Just keep me in the frickin' loop, people, it's not that hard. I am GLAD to turn things over to someone else for a song or two instead of doing the arm waving thing. I PROMISE.

I want to go back to the good old days when no one in the ward knew who I was, and I didn't have any jobs, and I sat in the very back and snuck out after Sacrament meeting.
