Are you fucking kidding me? What has he done other than play the race card and use bullshit "White guilt" to get his nigger ass elected? Ooooooooooooooh I used the oh so bad nigger word. We all know that 95% of you are probably crying because I said nigger and after you dry your liberal nigger loving tears you are all going to sit there and lecture your children on tolerance and all that bullshit even though you know if your little boy or girl brought home some savage fucking nigger you would flip the fuck out and disown your tofu eating offspring and you try to teach tolerance and preach all of your "knowledge and experience" with those fucking animals even though the closest thing you have to experience with a nigger is that you accidentally recorded an episode of The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air once when you were trying to record Full House. To all of you who claim that "I didn't vote for him but I didn't vote against him" BULLSHIT. Either you are a criminal and no longer have the right to vote, you voted for him because he's a nigger and you have the typical "White guilt" bullshit, or you are just ashamed to admit that you voted for anyone but the nigger...

When I read your post, it all made sense. If someone saw the title and judged the content without reading it, I think that would be their problem honestly.

I knew that I would be alienating some people from my blog by choosing to use the uncensored words. I deliberated and about it for 2 months and as corny as it may sound to some people, I even prayed about the decision. I began drafting my inauguration day post once President Obama claimed victory. I agree that it would be a shame if my motivation behind this was to shock and lure people in. But the truth is that the majority of my readers are fairly conservative evangelical Christians. It would have been wiser for me to not use expletives if I wanted to ensure continued readership. I genuinely expected to lose readers with this post, but I posted it anyway out of principle. I write this blog so that my daughters will better understand us as parents, and me as a father. I make it public, not private, so that I can solicit feedback from a community along the way. One thing is for certain, I am going to screw this parenting thing up. I know it as sure as I know anything. Only people outside the situation will be able to see what I don't see, and speak truth into an area where I may be believing a lie. This conversation is an excellent example. As much as I want to protect my girls from the uglier parts of humanity, as much as I want to censor and soften that ugliness, I believe I need to be careful. Because ignorance is not bliss. Simple-mindedness and foolhardiness and naivety can be just as dangerous to them as being "worldly". I want my girls to develop antibodies to these ugly diseases, but you can not develop a healthy, antibody-filled immune system unless you are exposed to the sicknesses in small, controlled spurts. In the end I asked myself, "What do I want Sydney and Savannah to know about what today means to me?" What kept coming back to me is, "The truth." peace|dewde Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with me.

Then I decided to read some of your blogs. I'm glad I did cause I was going to email my Aunt and Mom a link to your site. Now I can't cause they wouldn't understand the F*** or the N****. It's a shame cause I think they would have enjoyed the rest. It's also a shame that you had to use a title to of shock to lure people to read it. I just read your post about labeling.

It was pretty thick where I was. And evenly balanced, too. I wouldn't say one side was any worse than the other. I'm glad to hear that man. It was pretty thick where I was. And evenly balanced, too.

I guess the rednecks in North Georgia are higher-class than the ones in South Georgia.
