I’ve made it quite clear on this Blog that I am in favor of the loans to the big three in Detroit. I’ve Blogged many times as to why. I realize that it is a very complex issue and that no matter what happens, someone isn’t going to like what happens.

Anyhow, this discussion came up on twitter. I happened to be following a great deal of Conservatives, mainly Neo-Conservatives and Republicans. I admit it, I get upset when I hear people trashing my area, and also the big three, because my Dad worked there. I take it personally, it’s just not something I can control. It’s my family and I’m close to my family.

Anyhow, I lost my “cool” as it were, and I said some things that really pissed off a good number of people. I ended up hosing the twitter account, I’m done with the twitter stuff.

Oh, there’s an account there. I created a new one. Well, it was an older one, that I never used. So, went to that one. Set up twitterfeed to auto post my Blog entries there. But I’m not using it anymore.

Anyhow, I offer no apologies to the assholes who insulted my Father, yes, I equate my Father with G.M. Sorry, it’s the way I roll. To those who got caught in the crossfire, if I snapped at you an anger. I apologize, but this one issue, I take personally.

Moderation Temporarily enabled.

I have temporarily enabled comment moderation. I had a problem tonight, that I will discuss in my next posting.

A bit of an explanation

Some of you who come here quite regularly. Might have noticed a picture in my right sidebar under the heading, “Memo To Minorities – I do not embrace diversity!” Followed by a picture of a young white girl in pigtails, giving a rather familiar gesture, with the words, “You want me to race mix?” in the picture.

Last night around four in the morning. I removed the picture……and here is why.

First off, I thought about my Father, who has many African-American Friends. I thought about my family. In short, common sense got the best of me.

Folks, I want to be clear, I am not, nor have I ever been a racist bigot. I, through the medium of this Blog, sometimes use language; albiet at times a bit rough and tumble, that causes liberals to have knee jerk reactions. But when the smoke clears, I accept everyone as equal.

The only thing that I am opposed to, is the following:

Race Baiting
Identity Politics
The fact that Illegal Immigrants want we Americans to adapt to their culture, and not the other way around.
Politicians who pander to minorities, of ANY race!
Socialism of the Far Left
Communism in all it’s forms.

So, in short, that pictures with those words, went a bit beyond of the type of battle that I am fighting. It promoted hate, something that I am just not about at all.

That is all.

Headed to bed…

Enough of this crazy stuff. See you all when I wake up. 😀

Off to bed….

Meh. I’m spent. See you all when I arise from my slumber.

I really need to stop these late nights… 🙄

Night All! 😀

Some changes around here…

There has been a change in the comment policy.

That is explained further here.

This entry will remain sticky for a few days.

FeedBurner is History….

I happen to look over at my Feedburner admin page and that idiotic thing wasn’t even reading my feeds. So, it’s history. I took the damn icon thing with that counter that supposedly counted my number of readers, although I know that the thing is inaccurate as hell.

Since I made the change in the Permalink structure, the address for feeds is now this:

http://www.politicalbyline.com/?feed=rss2

Right click on the address above address and click on copy link location, or whatever your browser says and paste it to your RSS reader, or whatever you use to read here.

It just did not make any sense to have two RSS feed locations on here. So, I scrapped Feedburner.

That is all.
