Gay Marriage Ban Stands

Apparently California decided that gay marriage should stay banned. I have heard alot of excuses why it should be banned. All of them are pathetic.

Excuse #1: Majority Rules that's what Democracy is- First of all USA is not a Democracy we are a Republic. Second if majority rules than Gore would won in 2000. And Women would not have the right to vote and Blacks would be second class citizens. Plus we are the land of free. Don't make us seem like hypocrites.

Excuse #2: Marriage is between a man and a woman- Marriage use to be carried out with the father's permission and in the United States at one point blacks were not allowed to marry whites. So marriage can change.

Excuse #3: It's against God's will: Has anyone really read the Bible? Because it's been taken out of text so many times. And if people actually followed the Bible eating shell fish, wearing polyester and cotton together, having tattoos, and trimming beards is a sin. Plus religion and government should not mix

So many excuses but none are good. Bottom line bigotry is the real reason.

Who the neocon's blame

For the economic boom during the Clinton years they say it was because of Bush and Reagan.

For the first WTC bombing it was Clinton's fault

9\11 Clinton's fault

The recession before Obama, the Democrat congress's fault, after Obama was elected it's all Obama's fault.

These Neo Con's refuse to give the blame to their precious Republican leaders. Heck I keep hearing that Bush kept us safe for 7 years.

Guess what so did Clinton, and George H. W Bush, and Reagan, and etc...

Bush was a horrible leader and you guys lost the election get over it.

Empire of the Sun Review

I saw this movie on Net flicks and decided it would be an interesting watch. I was right. It was an amazing movie...along with most of the movies Steven Spielberg has made over the years. It stars a Young Christian Bale. Before he became Batman and John Connor he was a prisoner in a Japanese interment camp. He became a model for the camp as he helped save a couple of people from being beaten to death and did a couple of life risking jobs. The movie is very amazing and a good chunk of the time is spent just on the actor's actions. The acting was convincing. The Main star at first annoyed me but then he grew on me. No wonder why he kept a career after growing up. The movie also co stars John Malkovich. Looking at the credits I also spotting Ben Stiller.

Overall I give this movie a 10 out of 10. If you haven't seen it before watch it.

Metallica albums Reveiw

Ever since middle school I loved Mettalica. I have all but a few of there albums. So I've decided to review the albums. (I have listened to the songs in the albums I don't have)

Kill'em All- 8\10 To me it's a classic album. Although I'm not into older kind of music. But since I listened to the newer Metallica stuff before buying did make it slightly disappointing. A few songs did seem to go on a little long but overall I love this album.
Favorite Songs: Hit the Light, No Remorse, Pulling Teeth

Ride the Lightning- 9\10 Another solid Metallica album. It also contains my favorite song For Whom the Bell Tolls.
Favorite Songs: For Whom the Bell Tolls, Ride the Lightning, Fade to Black

Master of Puppets- 10\10 Each album gets better and better. This one contains no songs that are so-so.
Favorite songs- Orion, Disposable Heroes, Master of Puppets

... And Justice for All- 9\10 After Cliff Burton died Metallica hired a new base player and released another good album. The songs started out so so for me but over time they seem to get better and better. If you asked me my rating on this album the first time I would have given it a 6 but now most of the songs are in my faves.
Favorite Songs- One, Blackened, and Justice for All

Metalica- 8\10 Alot of hit songs on this album but compared to their previous album they sound really different and there style had changed.
Favorite Songs- Of Wolf and Man, Enter the Sandman, The Struggle Within

Load- 4\10 Very disappointing Album I was hoping for better.
Favorite Songs- Until it Sleeps, King Nothing

Reload 4\10 Same as Load
Favorite Song- Unforgiven II

St Anger 1\10 It sounds completely different from the Metalica I knew. The entire album is a big mess. The drums sounded horrible and no solos. Plus every song is way too long. I was bored sick by the end.
No favorite Songs

Death Magnetic 9\10 After one horrible Album Metalica bounced back with their best Album since ...And Justice for All. Songs are good but with some pretty bad lines like "Love is a four letter word." But the solos are awesome.
Favorite Songs- Nightmare Long, The Day that Never Comes, That Was Just Your Life

My opinion on Chaney

Dick Chaney former VP of the United States is an immoral, corrupt, evil, loser.

He wast he real brains behind Bush. Him and Karl Rove. After Rove left it was all Dick Cheney. The guy supports torture and even hardcore Republicans I have talked to all sense something evil within him.

The guy isn't doing the Republicans any favors by being the attack dog.

When Jesse Ventura asked Cheney if he wants to be water boarded I laughed.

He was a former President of an oil company, he's manipulative, and very dangerous. The Bush adminastration used Bush as a puppet. They told him what to say, even though Bush messed it up alot, and what to do.

Bottom line Cheney is evil and I will never go hunting with him.

Combat Arms Reveiw

Combat Arms is a free multi player first person shooter game. You are a solider and your objective is well exactly like the other 10000 FPS. Kill, capture the flag, and kill some more. What makes it unique is it is free to download and play. It may sound like a good idea but there are problems. Not with the game but with the players.

About half the players are silent which is a good thing because 40% of the other players are whiny noobs who never played a FPS. They whine when I kill them. They complain about the gun I use and about every map I am called a hacker. 9% are hackers who are biggest losers in the game. The glitch into walls because they are afraid of getting killed. Some do worse. The admins need to crack down on these guys. The other 1% are the nice players and actually have skill.

The maps are very few but more are added every couple of months which is very nice. The guns you can buy with cash but the one you start out with is a piece of crap. So I go off and buy a heavy machine gun and shot gun.

My rating 7 out 10. Would be a 9 if I can find a server with players that do not hack.

Evony reveiw

I could review one of those mainstream games which costs about $50 and some time to install and patch up. It's worth it sometimes while others I get frustrated because the game doesn't work due to vista or the game hates me.

Well I decided to review a game that is free and does not have any downloads. Evony is an online game which you can face other players. The objective is simple build a city, train and army, get resources and invade other cities. It's very addictive. Although at first it seems confusing but the game gives you a bunch of basic quests to help you get to know the game. Which is very well planned since some games I have played doesn't give you any help and you must figure out the stuff on your own. Although some things in Evony could have been better such as the Hero's stats could have been explained better.

For a week you get to build your city without the worry of an attack. Although 90% of the cities around me have no army.

It takes time to get resources. You start off getting like 100 food per hour and it can increase. Right now my food is at 38K an hour but it can easily increase even more.

To really find out more about the game you have to check it out yourself. Because I could write a novel on the game on how good and addictive it is. Most online games only keep me interested for like a week before I get bored with repetition or the game requires you to pay money to get any kind of advantage and not get your ass kicked every hour by tougher players.

This game is more with skill and building than it does with luck. Luck does play into some themes but you don't really rely on it if you have a big enough army.

I give Evony 9 out of 10 stars. Check it out on Evony.com

Movie Review of War

War starring Jason Stathan and Jet Li is about a cop who is trying to hunt down an assassin who killed his partner years ago. While the assassin seems to have an agenda of his own. The plot is OK but it's nothing really new. The fighting gets really confusing since they quickly changes shots. The editing is pretty bad especially in the end. Although the last couple of fights were pretty well put together. Acting was so-so nothing really special from this action movie and the ending was really confusing. It wasn't the plot at the end that was confusing but it felt like they put an ending together at the last minute and released it without really caring for it.

Overall I give the movie 4 out 10 which is pretty disappointing since I was hoping it would build up to a good ending.

Republicans need to get there act together

To be honest I was quite happy that the Republicans lost the election. They made so many mistakes. Bush left us in a recession, two wars, and a huge deficit. Now Obama is trying to clean up the mess. He spending alot but seriously it takes money to clean that stuff up. Now the Republicans who turned a blind eye on Bush's out of control spending are now criticizing Obama for spending to much. They come off as a bunch of Hypocrites really. So here is a few suggestions for the Republicans in 2012.

1. Distant yourselves from Cheney and Rush. So far they seem like the figure head of the Republican party. They are forcing the moderates away leaving only the right wing. Speak out against them and refuse to apologize.

2. In 2012 choose a couple of moderates for President and VP. McCain was a good choice I respect the guy. But Palin was a shot in the foot. She came off as another Bush. She's right wing, pro-life (Nothing wrong with pro-life), and someone who America did not want. I hear Republicans saying "Palin 2012". Honestly I would say sure. Palin 2012 get Obama re-elected. Please if you want any chance in 2012 choose a moderate.

3. Stop trying to be a roadblock. Seriously it's not helping the country.

4. Try to bring in the independents and moderates. They swing the favor. Try to get them on your side.

5. Attack dog tactics do not work anymore. They only get a few people but it alienates even more. Be critical but don't lash out like you want to kill the guy.

6. Finally, stop crying about the results. I said this to the Democrats twice. Shut up and prepare for the next election.

So please take these suggestions. Because they will help you in next election.
