The Big Bertha!

Posted by BerkoC on Monday, December 21, 2009 9:33:57 PM

In case there was any doubt in what I want or need for Christmas this is what it is! I know that I am already going to get one from my brother and I am excited about that because we usually play a round of golf the first day of spring. So I am planning on going to a driving range to practice with it and of course then going to hit the big wood hard coming Spring.

Accenture Drops Tiger

Posted by BerkoC on Monday, December 14, 2009 12:29:07 AM


Well Accenture is the first of the tidal wave of sponsors that are sure to start dropping Tiger like dead weight.  I think this is good because they need to protect their brand from the falling brand of Tiger.  He has done so much to harm the companies that supported him the least they can do is drop him and the best they can do is sue him for image infringement.  That's what I think they should do.  Get their money back.

Tiger's Disgrace

Posted by BerkoC on Thursday, December 10, 2009 10:34:04 PM

I thought that the transgressions committed by Tiger could be something I was able to ignore but after thinking about it for sometime I think it  is something that I must comment on.  If Tiger was a normal person like me it wouldn't matter to the world that he cheated on his wife and hired prostitutes.  But he is not normal.  Because he is an idol and someone that children look up to there is a need for him to hold himself to a higher moral standard.  Tiger needs to understand that his actions go beyond himself and effect many people around the world.  There is no excuse for what he did, but he must try to atone for his sins to show the world the moral and right thing to do.  He must lead by example, now more than ever.

Support Our Troops Button

Posted by BerkoC on Monday, December 07, 2009 11:46:09 PM
Even though I think Obama is vastly under preparing our military in Afghanistan I still think it is important to support our troops despite the government that is in place.  Our troops are what keep this country going and help spread the good news of the United States around the world.  This button to me is a perfect example of how to support the troops without supporting the ruling party.

More Boots than Promised

Posted by BerkoC on Thursday, December 03, 2009 11:08:51 PM

We need more boots on the ground than Obama has promised in Afghanistan. If we're going to get this right there needs to be a serious presence there to effectively destroy the enemy beyond any reason of a doubt. I think we should 60 or 100 thousand additional troops to ensure that this threat is completely neutralized and by doing that helping to keep American families safe.

Swine Flu Concerns *Funny*

Posted by BerkoC on Wednesday, December 02, 2009 12:03:28 AM
I was forwarded this today in an email and just had to share it because I thought it was very cute and funny:

I'm really concerned about swine flu. Here's my concern.
 
3 years ago, Chinese calendar year of the cow . . .
 Mad Cow disease.

 2 years ago, Chinese calendar year of the bird . .
  Avian flu.

This year, Chinese calendar year of the pig . . .
 Swine flu.
 
 Next year is the year of the c0ck .. .. .

  Anybody else worried?

Democrats Don't Even Want the Health Care Bill

Posted by BerkoC on Sunday, November 22, 2009 9:11:24 PM
To me it is so impressive that these few leftist liberals are the only ones that want this Senate Health Care bill and are willing to destroy their party to get it.  Even a large group of Democrats think that this bill will do nothing good for the country.  It blows my mind to see so many people destroying good politics because of an ideological agenda.  I think that the middle democrats should join with the Republicans to come up with a sensible reform for health care that saves us all money and gives more people greater benefits.

A worthwhile Republican Bumpersticker

Posted by BerkoC on Monday, November 16, 2009 11:38:53 PM
I really like this bumper sticker design because this really sums up how I feel about medicare, welfare, and any other government assistance programs.  I think that people should all have to work and that no one should be allowed to leach off my hard work and the work of others around me.  A system that supports that is doomed to fail and if we don't get off this system we will soon fail.

A Act of Ultimate Shame: Man Impersonates a Marine

Posted by BerkoC on Thursday, November 12, 2009 11:22:43 PM

To me there are few acts as shameful as impersonating someone else and it gets even worse when the person that you impersonate is a decorated veteran of the Armed Services, a Marine.  The man above, Steven Burton did just that.  He impersonated a Marine to impress people at his High School class reunion.  Just shameful, he tarnished the name of what it means to be a American and live with honor.  I hope that they give him a long prison sentence to ensure that others thinking about doing something like this won't even think twice about it.

Fort Hood Ceremony

Posted by BerkoC on Tuesday, November 10, 2009 10:24:06 PM


My heart goes out to all those that lost someone in the Fort Hood tragedy and I am glad that they had a good ceremony today and that Obama did the right thing in going to Texas to honor those that were slain.  It is a terrible event and I hope that the Army will institute a new policy to make sure that we screen out giving weapons to people like this.  Or even take it one step further and make sure that people like the FBI are doing their job and locking up dangerous people like this shooter.

Drug Lord's Son Ends Violence

Posted by BerkoC on Sunday, November 08, 2009 5:02:37 PM

I just finished reading this article on Time.com and I really think it is something we should hold up and celebrate. It talks about the son of Pablo Escobar and how he is trying to do good in Columbia to break the legacy of family violence. It is going to take a lot of work but I really appreciate what he is doing in trying to reform his country to make it safe again.

Here's the article if you want to read it: http://www.time.com/time/world/article/0,8599,1934482,00.html

Big Wins for Us

Posted by BerkoC on Wednesday, November 04, 2009 10:37:12 PM
It is nice to see that many people across the country are returning to normality and starting to support the GOP candidates again.  I think this is good progress that is going to start carrying the party into the mid-term elections next year.  I think we need to focus down and get those swing states back into the red so that we can be sure to start opposing some of the aggressive policies of the Obama administration and start having some bite to it.

Anti Health Care T-Shirt

Posted by BerkoC on Sunday, November 01, 2009 6:51:31 PM
I think this shirt explains exactly how I feel about the upcoming bill from the House of Representatives. There is nothing that the government is able to do effectively or at a low cost and we want to trust them with our lives and health? I think it is a terrible idea and of course you, my readers, know that I like to share what I think is a terrible idea with every fiber of my being.

Pelosi's Bill Will Change Your Life - FOR THE WORSE!

Posted by BerkoC on Thursday, October 29, 2009 10:51:52 PM
Peel back the onion and see the Democrat's health care bill for what it is: Government medicine that caters to the cheapest and the easiet option.  This latest bill from the Pelosi House is going to increase our costs and lower our quality of care.  Are we ready for that?  Heck no!  I say we make sure not to let this bill get past the house and hope that the if it does the senate can stop it.

The USS New York was constructed from the wreckage of 9-11

Posted by BerkoC on Monday, October 26, 2009 11:38:58 PM

The newest ship in the Atlantic fleet was christened the USS New York, named after the city and especially two buildings that had an instrumental hand in building the ship. The WTC donated 24 tons of steel to this ship to help make it what it is today and what it represents in the future. The Ship's motto is "We will never forget" and much like the ship that is sure to have a long and amazing career, the people of the United States will never forget either. I think this is a beautiful repurposing of the steel from that terrible accident and I hope that it will serve as a living symbol to all those that suffered through the terrible moment in American History.
