Broken steering

Wednesday, Sept 1, 2010

This last week I had to repair the steering gear box on my old tractor. The key word being repair, meaning put back into original working order or to rebuild it so as to function as it was originally intended. This is something that I had never worked on before, so I went on line and downloaded the owner’s/repair manual for this piece of equipment. Yes, it took me a while, but in the end by following the manufacturer’s instructions, it is now back in good working order.

It actually dawned on me last night that I had accomplished more in one week than Barrack Obama has accomplish in almost 2 years. And with basically the same available tools-an owners manual.

You see, I didn’t try to change anything in this steering box because when it is in good working order, it does just what it was designed to do. I didn’t try to make it steer my neighbors tractors or limit when their tractors could steer or charge them for the parts I had to buy. I simply followed the instructions in the owners manual and now my tractor is back steering in the direction that I want it to go. (Ah, you crafty devils. You see where I’m going with this already!)

When Barrack Obama took over the presidency, he had the same opportunity that I had. He could have seen the country for what it is and made the decision to repair it. He could have followed the directions in our nations owners manual and put us back in good working order. But, he did not. He chose to change things in a way that he thought would work better. He tossed aside the document that explains how to best run a free and ordered society and went head long into modifying instead of refurbishing a system that has been steadily abused, over burdened and over stressed for quite some time. And the result is: He hasn’t accomplished a damned thing except create more and greater damage than that with which he started out with.

Any system that is made to do more than it is capable of doing, will eventually, cease to function. 

America and my tractor are very similar. They are both designed to do a job and if kept in good working order and not jerry-rigged to do something they were not designed to do, they will last for a long, long time. But America’s steering is very badly broken and without sound steering, we will meander around until we hit something that will destroy the rest of our great nation.

We must repair our Nation’s steering and we must do it by following the owner’s manual that the Framer’s gave us-The Constitution of the United States of America.

Dept. of Agriculture to give 30% discount on fruits and veggies to poor

Friday, Aug 20, 2010

Foxnews.com is reporting that the Dept. of Agriculture is going to try a pilot program that will give the poor a 30% discount on fruits and vegetables. The program will take place in the State of Mass. and will target 7500 families in Hamden County, who are on food stamps, at an estimated cost of $20 million. (20,000,000 divided by 7500=$2667 per family) 

According to Fox, 30 cents for every $1 spent on fruits and veggies will be refunded back to the participating recipient’s food stamp debit card. How nice.

Does this mean, if I see some Weed stuffing his or her face full of Popeye’s Chicken I can slap that bad food out of their hands and smash a tomato all over their face? It should. I like the rest of you, who are working your butts off and going backwards, am getting a belly full of this re-distribution bull shit. And the sad part about this is that the truly habitual losers of society aren’t interested in eating better. It takes a little effort to get up off the couch and fix a decent meal and these people (and you all know who I’m talking about) are too bone assed lazy to do that.

These bureaucrats and politicians know damned well that the General Welfare clause of our Constitution does not pertain to the first week of every month, but they will stand in front of the cameras, knowing full well that you know this too, and tell you that it does. It is time to get pro-active. This crap has got to stop.

Remember back when the SEIU was busing people in to picket the homes of bankers and terrorize their families? Maybe we should find out who these individual bureaucrats are and do the same thing to them. But unfortunately, unlike the SEIU scum, we would be arrested for harassment. We could, however, find out who they are and post their pictures and addresses everywhere possible. You know, strictly for therapeutic purposes. Loosen their bowls up a little just to keep our public servants regular and healthy.

In the mean time, the Obamas are starting their next vacation. Really? When did the last one stop? Anyway, ten days in Martha’s Vineyard and I doubt they are going to eat nothing but watercress sandwiches.

Sheryl Crow Demands ‘recycled toilet paper’

Saturday, Aug 14, 2010

First we had to suffer the idiotic demands by Babs Streisand that her hotel toilet have rose petals floating in it. Now, it comes to light that completely dufus Sheryl Crow demands that all the toilet paper backstage be replaced with ‘recycled toilet paper.’

Ok… supply her with ‘recycled toilet paper.’ Better yet, since the queen of uncleanliness advocates using only one square per sitting, send her your used toilet paper (wet or dry, who cares) and let her go through it to find a clean square.

Genetically defective? I don’t know. Your guess is as good as mine.

We all miss some of those big, fat, hanging, curve balls.

Thursday, Aug 12, 2010

This piece is from Monday, Aug 9, but due to technical problems I was unable to post it until today.

Because I hate listening to commercials and get tired of hitting the mute button and then trying to guess when the program will come back on, I like to wait until the evening and listen to Mark Levin\’s radio show after it has been archived. But on this Monday Levin obviously needed to tend to some personal business and (as you might already know) had asked Inga Barks, a local talker, from California’s Central Valley, to fill in. I really didn’t know much about Inga, and was genuinely impressed with the way she politely cut liberal callers down to size.

The running theme Inga chose for this show centered, specifically, around the pay scandal that the city of Bell, Ca. has found itself embroiled in and in general, the fact that government employees earn nearly twice as much as their private sector counterparts. In the course of this discussion Inga took a call from one man who was trying to justify his bloated government paycheck and his reasoning not only turned my stomach, but made me wonder how many other SOBs have the same twisted logic.

What this ”pimple on societies ass” said should raise your hackles too, and it was this: “I put 20 years into jobs in the private sector and I deserve the pay and benefits I get (from my government job)…” Inga did do a pretty good job of trying to tell this pin head that his money comes from tax payers, but for the most part, she missed taking a grand slam swing at a big, fat, hanging, curve ball. This bastard was just ripe for plucking.

I mean, what kind of self centered piece of human feces thinks that because he put time in the private sector he deserves to leach off of the rest of us with better pay, perks and benefits. And you know damned good and well, that the bulk of government jobs consist of sitting on your ass deciding whether to actually do some work or surf some porn on the Internet at the tax payers expense. It’s been proven more than once because slobs like this guy have been caught doing this on several occasions. And how many times has it not been reported in the news?

After 25 yrs. in the trucking industry, I felt I had gained enough knowledge to try my hand at running my own show. To become an independent owner operator and run my own small company. Never in my wildest dreams did I think that I had earned an overpaid, cushy, driving  job with Uncle Sam. Hell, I took a withdrawal card from the Teamsters union some 30 years ago, because, all I kept hearing from them was “You don’t have to do that” or “You have a right not to work more than…” I can only imagine what it would be like to drive for the government and just about all the drivers I’ve ever met think the same way I do.

But this sick mentality that “I deserve” more pay than you and oh, by the way, you’ll also be footing the bill for my paycheck, has got to stop. Especially when you consider that government does not produce anything… zip, zilch, nada with the exception of headaches for us in the private sector.

I know… I know. Hindsight is 20/20. We’ve all been there and looked back and thought of the things we should have said or done and I’m sure Inga did the same about this jerk. But boy, if there were ever a disgusting, self serving, liberal bastard that needed to be slapped down hard, it was this moron.

Oh wait, all liberals need to be slapped down, don’t they?

Remember in November!

One note song

Friday, Aug 6, 2010

The world we live in is a symphony of sound and taken individually, some sounds are pleasing and some are not. A large number of unpleasant sounds are monotonous and droning. One note songs, if you will. But not all one note songs are irritating or unpleasant. The buzzing of insects on the first warm spring day after a long cold winter is a welcome sound indeed and the constant roar of the ocean can calm nerves and relax tense muscles in an instant.

But the unpleasant one note songs can even test the patients of the Dahle Llama himself. A Jackhammer outside your window can make you have visions of homicide and the incessant yapping of a neighbor’s dog can turn good friends into devout enemies in short order. But the whining of a spoiled rotten little child that is not getting its way, can turn almost all of us into a quivering lump of anger with no place to vent.

America has been forced to endure the one note song of a whinny, spoiled, little child for the last year and a half and it looks like were in for even more of “It’s all Bush’s fault.” Even those in his own Party are trying to avoid having contact with the spoiled, whinny, immature Barrack Obama. And, evidently, this childish man has decided that the Democrats should run against George W. Bush again (in November.) Obama has now increased the pettiness of his whining, by choosing to use the former President’s name; something that is rarely (if ever) done, as a matter of respect. 

It doesn’t matter to Barrack Obama that we understand the fact that after 18 months in office, he owns the economy; he owns Afghanistan; he owns the unemployment mess; and he owns the fact that his Party is more than likely going to lose big, in the next elections. No, it doesn’t matter to Obama. He’s mad because the idol worship has stopped. He’s no longer making weak kneed little liberals faint and school children have stopped singing songs of praise to him.

So prepare yourself America, for even more non-stop, whinny, lies; one after another from a spoiled rotten, whinny, childish President. Especially, as it dawns on him that those plumeting poll numbers are, indeed, real.

Homosexuals want marriage? OK, let them.

 Thursday, Aug 5, 2010

I’m not going to get into the ruling that, an obviously biased, Judge Walker handed down nulifiying California’s vote to ban homosexual marriage. That’s already been sliced, diced and dissected by people who are much more informed about the Constitution than I am. I do know, Walker’s use of the 14th Amendment to rule against the people of California was wrong. The 14th Amendment was not added to our governing document to address sexual preference of any kind. But Walker knows this too. He is just another radical leftist intent on reshapingsociety in his own image, which just happens to trash the Constitution in the process (as is the same with all the other left wing radicals.)

For the time being, though, I do have an idea that can bring a little peace of mind to the majority of people who still see the sanctity of marriage as being between one man and one woman. It’s really very simple. Change the wording of your vows to include a stipulation that your marriage is the only marriage recognized by God and over 2,000 years of worldwide tradition.

Oh, I’m sure this would enrage those who are intent on normalizing an abnormal behaviour and they probably would file more lawsuits. But who cares at this point? Besides, the States don’t give a hoot what you say for your marriage vows, they’re only interested in getting that money for the license and people write their own vows all the time.

If the liberals and the homosexuals want to destroy our beliefs and traditions by forcing there life styles into the middle of them, force them back out withjust the smallest of changes. Different vows, meaningful rings, it doesn’t matter. What does matter is that we maintain our beliefs and faith.

Missouri opened the flood gates

Wednesday, Aug 4, 2010

Yes, Missouri opened the floodgates and the people astonished the liberal establishment with a 71% vote against Obama’s un-Constitutional Health care law. But it isn’t how the socialistic apparatchik press is already trying to spin this as “just a bunch of Tea Party rednecks” out to make it look like the whole country is against Obama care. It is about much more than that.

This landslide vote in favor of Proposition C, in Missouri, is just the beginning of a nation’s people gathering ourselves up to fight this Socialist tyranny that our elected leaders have sold us out for. It is “We the People” loudly shouting, ”ENOUGH!” Enough of appointing sleazy little Marxists bureaucrats, in the dead of night. Enough of Congress passing Bills without even reading them. Enough handing money out for votes. Enough of your judges ruling against precedence and the law itself. Enough of your refusal to protect our nation’s borders. And enough of you trying to tell us what to eat, what kind of light bulb to use, what kind of toilet to crap in, how hot or cold we can keep our homes and how we can raise our own children.

You  liberals can tell yourselves that the results of Missouri’s vote on Prop C is just an anomaly, but you are just deluding yourselves if you do. You would have to ignore some pretty hard facts to come to the conclusion that Robert Gibbs and your lap-dog press would have everyone believe. Facts such as Obama’s poll numbers slipping to an all time low of 41%. The fact that 68% of the voting public supports Arizona’s new imigration law, SB 1070. Can you ignore Congress’ measly 11% approval rating? Or how about that unemployment rate of 9.5%? Just like the guy on the late night TV commercial, I say, ”But wait! There’s much more!”

That’s right, there is more. All of the things I’ve listed in this rant, aren’t just aimed at the liberals. You Republican law makers had better pull your heads out of your asses too. For the most part, you have been stumbling around dazed and confused thinking that you’re going to win just because people have become so fed up with Obama, Pelosi, Reid and the rest of the Democrat trash. Wrong. Listen to and understand what the people are saying to you. We are giving you your agenda and if you take the challenge and go with it, you will win.

It is vitally important that all of you, over at the RNC, understand this: If you win big this November and again in 2010, you had better not go back to business as usual. If you do, you will get your collective head served to you on a platter. And that will set the stage for another liberal, left wing take over, a la Ross Perot.

I am a firm believer, if we do not start dismantling this grossly, over bloated federal government and get back to a limited constitutional government, we will find ourselves embroiled in a civil war, just like any other third world country. And if that happens, any blood shed as a result will be as much on the hands of the Republican leadership as on the hands of our Marxist antagonists. This may well be the last chance we have to save the one true beacon of liberty on this planet.

Let the Democrats worry about how their own Party has been taken over by left wing radicals. We need to take back the Republican Party from the Lindsay Grahams, Olympia Snows and John McCains. In the mean time, urge your State’s legislators to reject Obama care, cap and trade, tax increases, the oil embargo and more bail-outs. Make them understand, that Arizona’s law should become your state’s law.

Get involved in the shaping of our destiny, because our destiny involves the shape of things we leave our children.

More excuses-less police and fire

Tuesday, Aug 3, 2010

In an article in the stltoday.com, the City of East St. Louis has announced that it will be cutting their police and fire fighters by 30% because the city is broke. But in all fairness, they did offer the pollice and firefighters a package that would allow them to keep their jobs but take 2 unpaid leave days per pay period, but it was rejected by their public employees unions.

So now, East St Louis, Ill. will now add itself to the long and growing list of towns using the threat of cutting emergency services, to wheedle more tax money out of citizens that are already broke because of bloated and excessive government (do not doubt that this is coming.) Yes, the police and fire fighters get cut before Mayor Alvin L. Parks would ever consider not throwing a party for Miles Davis’ 84th  birthday (yes, at the public’s expense.) Or cutting the staff  of the community redevelopment dept., that has more employees than a lot of small businesses (11).  Or, how about cutting back the East St. Louis Housing Authority? How about that Finance Dept.? Think they could trim down a little in order to keep a couple of cops on the street? Maybe shut down their library, if need be?  Hell no!

Mayor Parks readily points out that their riverboat gambling casino took in $900,000 less than the previous year, but continues to spend money on community redevelopment projects.  Just like Ann Arbor, Mich. who had $800,000 available to install a water sculpture in front of their new City Hall, but not enough to pay police and firemen, the fat cats in the East St. Louis city government can’t be expected to give up some of those goodies they worked so hard to get. And don’t expect Mayor Parks to tell his cousin Leon, (propped up by a broom over at public works) that he’s being let go either.

Things aren’t all bad in East St. Louis though. You can still get your fence fixed or have graffiti painted over, FOR FREE,  because that is one of many federal programs that are available for the good folks of East St. Louis. Just… not police protection.

By the way, isn’t that little community that lured police and firemen (around the 4th of July) out to fake calls of fire and murder only to attack them with bottle rockets and roman candles, right around there?  Alton, yeah that’s it. Just up the road a couple of miles.

And if memory serves me, when I was still trucking, wasn’t there a billboard on the north side of the freeway coming into East St. Louis, that someone had spray painted “Whittie keep out”? That was back around the year 1999 or so and it stayed up there for quite a long time. Nice community.

Organized crime can’t hold a candle to liberal Democrats in power.

A little comparative reading

Update: Thursday, Dec 17, 2009

I’m sitting here listening to Mark Levin, with half an ear, when I hear him reading Marx and Engels’ Communist Party planks over the radio. It’s about time someone started showing people just exactly what the Democrats are.

So, I thought it worthwhile to re-post something I did quit a while back. 

Thank you, Mr. Levin. Better late than never.

Saturday, Oct 24, 2009

I’ve put together excerpts from 3 very notable documents that are truly relevant for our time and place in history. When you read these, do not limit your scope of comparison to our current president and his administration; but, look at how our system of government has changed over the span of many years.

The first excerpt is from the Communist Manifesto and is how Engels and Marx believed their communist revolution should be accomplish. It is as follows:

i) Limitation of private property through progressive taxation, heavy inheritance taxes, abolition of inheritance through collateral lines (brothers, nephews, etc.) forced loans, etc.

(ii) Gradual expropriation of landowners, industrialists, railroad magnates and shipowners, partly through competition by state industry, partly directly through compensation in the form of bonds.

(iii) Confiscation of the possessions of all emigrants and rebels against the majority of the people.

(iv) Organization of labor or employment of proletarians on publicly owned land, in factories and workshops, with competition among the workers being abolished and with the factory owners, in so far as they still exist, being obliged to pay the same high wages as those paid by the state.

(v) An equal obligation on all members of society to work until such time as private property has been completely abolished. Formation of industrial armies, especially for agriculture.

(vi) Centralization of money and credit in the hands of the state through a national bank with state capital, and the suppression of all private banks and bankers.

(vii) Increase in the number of national factories, workshops, railroads, ships; bringing new lands into cultivation and improvement of land already under cultivation – all in proportion to the growth of the capital and labor force at the disposal of the nation.

(viii) Education of all children, from the moment they can leave their mother’s care, in national establishments at national cost. Education and production together.

(ix) Construction, on public lands, of great palaces as communal dwellings for associated groups of citizens engaged in both industry and agriculture and combining in their way of life the advantages of urban and rural conditions while avoiding the one-sidedness and drawbacks of each.

(x) Destruction of all unhealthy and jerry-built dwellings in urban districts.

(xi) Equal inheritance rights for children born in and out of wedlock.

(xii) Concentration of all means of transportation in the hands of the nation.

Next is Sahl Alinsky’s Rules For Radicals:

RULE 1: “Power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have.” Power is derived from 2 main sources – money and people. “Have-Nots” must build power from flesh and blood. (These are two things of which there is a plentiful supply. Government and corporations always have a difficult time appealing to people, and usually do so almost exclusively with economic arguments.)

RULE 2: “Never go outside the expertise of your people.” It results in confusion, fear and retreat. Feeling secure adds to the backbone of anyone. (Organizations under attack wonder why radicals don’t address the “real” issues. This is why. They avoid things with which they have no knowledge.)

RULE 3: “Whenever possible, go outside the expertise of the enemy.” Look for ways to increase insecurity, anxiety and uncertainty. (This happens all the time. Watch how many organizations under attack are blind-sided by seemingly irrelevant arguments that they are then forced to address.)

RULE 4: “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.” If the rule is that every letter gets a reply, send 30,000 letters. You can kill them with this because no one can possibly obey all of their own rules. (This is a serious rule. The besieged entity’s very credibility and reputation is at stake, because if activists catch it lying or not living up to its commitments, they can continue to chip away at the damage.)

RULE 5: “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.” There is no defense. It’s irrational. It’s infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions. (Pretty crude, rude and mean, huh? They want to create anger and fear.)

RULE 6: “A good tactic is one your people enjoy.” They’ll keep doing it without urging and come back to do more. They’re doing their thing, and will even suggest better ones. (Radical activists, in this sense, are no different that any other human being. We all avoid “un-fun” activities, and but we revel at and enjoy the ones that work and bring results.)

RULE 7: “A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.” Don’t become old news. (Even radical activists get bored. So to keep them excited and involved, organizers are constantly coming up with new tactics.)

RULE 8: “Keep the pressure on. Never let up.” Keep trying new things to keep the opposition off balance. As the opposition masters one approach, hit them from the flank with something new. (Attack, attack, attack from all sides, never giving the reeling organization a chance to rest, regroup, recover and re-strategize.)

RULE 9: “The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself.” Imagination and ego can dream up many more consequences than any activist. (Perception is reality. Large organizations always prepare a worst-case scenario, something that may be furthest from the activists’ minds. The upshot is that the organization will expend enormous time and energy, creating in its own collective mind the direst of conclusions. The possibilities can easily poison the mind and result in demoralization.)

RULE 10: “If you push a negative hard enough, it will push through and become a positive.” Violence from the other side can win the public to your side because the public sympathizes with the underdog. (Unions used this tactic. Peaceful [albeit loud] demonstrations during the heyday of unions in the early to mid-20th Century incurred management’s wrath, often in the form of violence that eventually brought public sympathy to their side.)

RULE 11: “The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative.” Never let the enemy score points because you’re caught without a solution to the problem. (Old saw: If you’re not part of the solution, you’re part of the problem. Activist organizations have an agenda, and their strategy is to hold a place at the table, to be given a forum to wield their power. So, they have to have a compromise solution.)

RULE 12: Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.” Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions. (This is cruel, but very effective. Direct, personalized criticism and ridicule works.)

And Finally, The Bill of Rights:

Amendment I

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Amendment II

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

Amendment III

Amendment IV

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

Amendment V

No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.

Amendment VI

Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.

Amendment IX

The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.

Amendment X

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.              

I put these items in this order, as to give the reader a chance to think of anything in the first 2 that they might think of as being normally included in our governmental process and then see what our Bill of Rights actually says.

Knowledge is power. And knowledge is what is giving the people who want socialism more opposition than they ever expected.

Worth while read

Tuesday, Nov 3, 2009

Today’s suggested reading by Michelle Malkin, posted on her blog is not only informative but, as she says, should be sent to every clueless GOP politician on your hit list.  

The stupid party

posted at 8:45 pm on November 2, 2009 by Doctor Zero
Share on Facebook | printer-friendly

New York Republicans got a rock in their trick-or-treat bags over the Halloween weekend, as Dede Scozzafava ripped off her million-dollar Republican mask and revealed herself to be a Democrat. It was never a very good disguise, but every previous attempt to peer beneath it was punished with stern lectures from Newt Gingrich and the rest of the party establishment. The bags of contributor money Republicans handed to the Scozzafava campaign would have been more usefully spent hiring detectives to trail ACORN operatives, and keep Democrat voter fraud down to manageable levels.

The Scozzafava campaign is the latest dreadful mistake from a party establishment enchanted by the mirage of the perfect moderate candidate. For Republican voters, it seems like every winter is the winter of their discontent. Many of the GOP’s boneheaded mistakes come from exactly the same source as the Democrats’ boneheaded mistakes: the tendency to believe the media action line about themselves. This produces arrogance in the Democrats, while the Republicans are like awkward, lovestruck teenagers – terrified the slightest bit of confident self-expression will blow their chances with the cute moderate in the pink sweater seated beside them in homeroom class. They suffer beneath the same irony that crushes every awkward teenager, since confident self-expression is exactly what is needed to connect with the object of their affections… assuming they’re not obsessing over someone they never had a chance with anyway.

Establishment mouthpieces trying to rationalize the Scozzafava debacle as a tactical maneuver, designed to win a liberal district by running a moderate candidate, can save their breath. The success of Doug Hoffman’s insurgent candidacy blows that argument out of the water. Even if he suffers a narrow loss on Tuesday, Hoffman has certainly proven himself competitive. Just imagine what he could have done with, oh, say about $900,000 in Republican party funding!

As it stands, Hoffman has already crushed one of the Democrats in the race, and stands poised to claim victory over the other  - and he did it with the help of all the conservative hobgoblins lurking within liberalism’s nightmare closet. While Newt Gingrich was droning through the third hour of his Power Point presentation, explaining why running the Card Check-supporting wife of a union thug was a brilliant political maneuver, Sarah Palin roared up in her 4×4 and shouted the obvious truth: voting for actual conservatives is the only way to clear away the Obama malaise.

Every district presents different political challenges, and there are places where both parties are compelled to run candidates who deviate from their core philosophy. The degree of deviance is the issue… particularly for the Republicans, whose core philosophy runs counter to the collectivist momentum of the past century. The Democrats certainly have problems with their mavericks, but usually only when they attempt to implement the most extreme policies, such as trapping America in the nightmare of state-run medicine. As long as the growth of the State bubbles along at Clinton levels, the “Blue Dog” Democrats are content to sit quietly on their porches, ignoring the Republicans waiting for them to bark.

Meanwhile, the Republicans keep running “moderates” who prove to be very useful to the Democrats… which keeps the growth of the State bubbling along at Bush levels.  The radical nature of the current Administration makes the idea of “moderate” compromise laughable. What’s the moderate position on freedom-crushing trillion-dollar health care and environmentalist legislation? They’re okay, as long as the Democrats pinky-swear to keep the cost under $800 billion? That’s the kind of promise no politician could keep, even if it was made in earnest. A moderate Republican is someone who lives in a state of perpetual surprise as he ponders the monthly bills for nanny-state government. What’s the point of electing people who are guaranteed to spend the rest of their political careers complaining about how they’ve been played for fools?

Too much of the Republicans’ “Stupid Party” strategy is based on the mechanics of getting people with little elephants on their campaign signs elected. They view the election as the conclusion of a contest, when in fact it’s only the beginning. A successful Republican Party doesn’t have to be ideologically rigid, but it should insist on candidates who possess an intellectual foundation of conservative theory, and the ability to explain it at least as well as the thousands of people posting comments on conservative blogs.

Republican voters would be well-advised to ignore the people who engineered the Scozzafava debacle, and listen for the sound of Sarah Palin’s monster truck instead. America needs conservatives more than it needs Republicans.  Both the party, and the country, benefit when they are one and the same.  Next Halloween, just to be on the safe side, we should test the blood of every “moderate” Republican with a hot wire and a petri dish, just to make sure we don’t have another DIABLO on our hands.

Update: Obama hits new Presidential low

It doesn’t matter what the circumstances are that surround these soldier’s deaths; for Obama to disrespect them and their families by rambling on for over 2 minutes about his idiotic conference, before mentioning the situation at Ft. Hood, is crude and despicable.

Take a good look America. This IS who Barrack Hussein Obama is.

Is the MSM starting to get a clue?

Friday, Nov 6, 2009

When I took a look this morning at what kind of reaction the MSM was going to have to the shootings, at Ft. Hood Texas, I thoroughly expected the usual “he snapped,” and “this is not Islamic terrorist related” talking points. And, for the most part, that’s what I found.

What did take me by surprise, was the scolding nbcchicago.com gave Obama for his total lack of class in addressing the situation, last night. NBC? Chicago? WOW! Whooda thunk?

Is it possible that this poor excuse of a president is finally getting to be too much for even the MSM? Well, maybe some of them will start to see the light; but, I wouldn’t hold my breath until Maureen Doud, Keith Olberman, or “Ive got a thrill going up my leg” Chris Matthews, figures everything out.

It is good to see some of the press start to understand what a cold, self centered person Obama is. But, it just sickens me that it takes such a horrific incidence to open their eyes. Meanwhile, the rest of the MSM is busy inventing pre-post- traumatic stress syndrome.

New Orleans ACORN offices raided

Friday, Nov 6, 2009

Andrew Breitbart’s BIGGOVERNMENT is reporting that the New Orleans office of ACORN has been raided by the Louisianna Attorny’s General office.

 

According to NOLA.com:

 

Attorney General Buddy Caldwell has served a search warrant at the ACORNoffice at 2609 Canal Street, according to Tammi Arender Herring, a spokeswoman with the office.

Investigators in khaki pants and polo shirts loaded several dozen computers and other electronic items into an SUV. They are also carrying records out of the building on handcarts.

The large office building sits at the corner of Dorgenois and Canal. ACORN staffers were given no notice that a search would be conducted today, Herring said.

Whole story here.

From WDAM in New Orleans:

 

Caldwell said investigators will copy records and hard drives, then return them to ACORN.

He said the original allegations of embezzlement were made last year by ACORN board members who were fired after they asked for a forensic examination of the group’s books.

ACORN fired the longtime director of its Louisiana chapter last month, citing a lack of accountability.

Whole story here.

Big Government readers may remember that the ‘longtime director’ ACORNS’s LA chapter is Beth Butler, longtime companion/wife of ACORN co-founder Wade Rathke.  

Damn! This just doesn’t seem to have been a good week for liberals.

Let’s not jump to conclusions

Monday, Nov 9, 2009

Ooookay. Nidal Malik Hasan attended the the same mosque that the 9/11 hijackers did; but, let’s not jump to conclusions. Nidal Malik Hasan talked to his Imam about the “right” of the Muslim people to rise up and slaughter American soldiers for invading their countries; but, let’s not jump to conclusions. Nidal Malik Hasan was in touch with or attempted to contact Al Qaeda opperatives; but, let’s not jump to conclusions. Nidal Malik Hasan screamed “Allahu Akbar” while he murdered 13 unarmed civilian and military personnel and left 31 others wounded, at Ft. Hood Army base, in Texas; but, let’s not jump to conclusions. Barack Hussein Obama told us not to jump to conclusions.

OK. I have given it much thought and I conclude: Nidal Malik Hasan is a Jihadi terrorist murdering bastard.

The will of the people

Monday, Nov 9, 2009

It has become a mantra that Congress is not listening to “the will of the people” or Congress must listen to “the will of the people.” Just depends on which side this noise comes from.

The mandated health care insurance bill has nothing to do with the “will of the people.” We are not a Democracy; we are a representative republic and that makes this issue about constitutionality.

As I have said before, there are but 2 constitutional requirements to becoming a U.S. citizen. They are: 1) To be born in the United States of America or one of its territories, and 2) To become a naturalized citizen through the process of legal immigration.

Mandating proof of health care insurance as a condition of legal citizenship is as un-Constitutional as suspending our election process solely because one party decides they want to stay in power indefinitely. Does this President and Congress know something that we the people don’t?

I have, also, explained how health care or health care insurance cannot be a God given right, and it bears repeating. A God given right obligates or harms no other person except in the defense of life or property. This seems to be a hard concept for the average daily kos reader to grasp. Maybe they think a doctor will be assigned to them every time they decide to go camping. Who knows. 

Obama and Congress know very well that passing mandated health care insurance is un-Constitutional; as well as, health care is not a right. (God given or Constitutional) They just don’t care and they are banking on the ignorance of the American people.

Read the Constitution. Inform yourself.

Make forcing our politicians to abide by the Constitution “the will of the people.”

Forget the safety of the troops…protect the Muslims

Monday, Nov 9, 2009

And now for this weeks encore: Janet Napoleanna (did I spell that right?) has decided that the safety of Muslims is much more important than our troops or the nation at large.

Are you G.I.s getting all this?

A very telling picture

Tuesday, Nov 10, 2009

I have to admit, for the most part, the speech was well written. I would be curious to know who the author is; but, there is a problem with Obama being the one to deliver it, and that is: it draws such a stark and opposite picture from that of his initial reaction and comments on this horrible and, obviously, avoidable act of terrorism (a word completely omitted from the entire speech.)

Commentary on Obama’s speech has already been done by more than enough pundits, pro and con. So, what I do want to point out is what the above photograph of Obama shows. OK, look at the photo again. This time look closely. Do you see something a little strange? Does something stand out that maybe causes you to wonder…exactly, why is this necessary? No? OK…body armor!

I looked through hundreds of photos of Presidents Clinton and George W. Bush, while at military bases, and I couldn’t find anything like what I see in this picture. My first reaction (to the picture of Obama) was, “what the hell?” And, being me, more questions started popping into my mind. None of them very reassuring.

Since it probably makes more sense to not make a lot of sense, I’ll just tell it the way I thought it. After the original irony of the situation wore off, I started thinking: Does this jerk not even trust the troops he is supposed to be commanding? Does he think there may be more terrorists on that base and is not saying anything about it? He flew into a U.S. military base on “his aircraft” to do a memorial in front of (I would think) an already scrutinized audience. WTF? This has got to be because he knows how thoroughly hated he is, for what he’s doing to this country. Does he think he is so freaking important to this world that he needs to wear body armor on a U.S. military base? Jeez, are the protectors of our freedom in this much trouble?

The President himself told us that this was just an isolated instance of someone snapping from the stress. (Of  what? The guy hadn’t even been deployed yet.) So, did Obama lie? That wouldn’t be new; but, the implications here are difficult to imagine.

I would love to have someone show me where it is common for presidents to wear body armor while visiting troops on our own bases. Maybe I couldn’t find any information on this because I’m really bad at doing searches; but, I doubt it.

Hero of the year award (not)

Wednesday, Nov 11, 2009

The New York Post is reporting that a Columbia University professor has been charged with assault after punching a female co-worker in the face at a Harlem bar, on Monday. It has been alleded, that the punch was thrown after a heated argument about white privilege.

It was, also, said that the force of the punch was so loud, the employees in the kitchen area heard it. You can read the entire article here.

I’m just wondering if he is a close friend of Henry (Skip) Gates, the Harvard professor that was arrested after police responded to a call of a possible break-in at his residence; that led to the famous “beer summit” with President Barack Obama.

Sigh! What heroes.

The liberal wrecking ball just keeps on pounding (will we ever learn?)

Thursday, Nov 12, 2009

Reuters.com is reporting that the white house is considering using TARP money to pay down some of the 1.2 trillion dollar debt. Yep, we are now on the road to printing money to pay off a national debt that is larger than all of the previous administrations in our history; which is a sure prescription for run-away inflation. This and Congress’ threat to enact another Smoot-Hawly style tax increase, makes it is hard to understand what our current government is trying to accomplish. Of course, if they are intentionally trying to bankrupt our economic system, then it makes perfect sense.

Add to the mix that Obama has already sent up a trial balloon on tariffs, his determination to get a 1.2 to 1.5 tillion dollar health care bill passed, and his open hostility to capitalism, what other conclusion can you come to than the intentional destruction of the United States as we know it.

In my opinion, the Republicans currently in office are only making token arguments against the majorities policies. Any rational person who had the opportunity to voice opposition to this train wreck in Congress, would be doing a Joe Wilson multiplied by a hundred. So what if we got carried out kicking and screaming? At least it would let the left know that it isn’t going to be a cake walk. And maybe some of those so called Blue Dog moderates would bother themselves to take a second look at the whole situation before taking the bribe.

The bottom line here is this: Washington is not listening to us, our Republican politicians are standing around scratching their heads, and I’m beginning to think that you would be lucky to find two people in Washington D.C. who have ever read the Constitution.

Are we sunk? I don’t know. Is 2010 to late? I don’t know that either; but even if we do take the House and Senate back, it will be years before we get this mess straightened out. And after the years of taking back the government, will we let ourselves get back to the complacency that will allow the truly greedy, power hungry socialists, to rise again?

Amnesty is sneaking back into the Dem’s agenda. But why now?

Monday, Nov 16, 2009

On Nov, 13th, head of Home Land Security Janet Napolitano addressed the issue of immigration reform (amnesty for illegal aliens) at the progressive socialist think tank Center for American Progress. In her speech, she listed all the reasons why immigration reform is so necessary at this time. Among those reasons, was the need to beef up the ability of the government to prevent the flow of illegal immigrants from entering the country; while at the same time, protecting those same illegals from the hazards they face when trying to come into the U.S. illegally.

This resurgence of the amnesty push seems strange; considering, the last time I checked, the flow of illegal aliens was heading out of the country, due to the lack of work and poor economy. Further more, Napolitano’s reasoning that immigration reform is vital to allow law enforcement to deal with this problem, seems pretty disingenuous; considering, she recently told Arizona’s Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio to stop enforcing current immigration laws.

OK, most of us know that Napolitano is just another surrogate for Barack Obama; but, why push for amnesty when the illegals that are genuinely here to work, are leaving? Let’s face it, if the workers all go back to Mexico, all that will be left are the criminal gangs like ms-13, and those who find our welfare systems to their liking.

Obviously, the gangs aren’t going to sign up for the amnesty program; so, that only leaves the illegals that don’t really care if they work or not and this will place an even greater burden on states that are already financially struggling. So, what value is there in immigration reform under these conditions?

The answer is simple: more Democrat voters. That’s the only answer that makes any sense. And, with Obama’s and Congress’ approval ratings tanking more every day, they are going to need all the help they can get to stay in power, in 2010 and 2012.

Obama and Pelosi both promised America transparency, and that’s about all they have delivered, so far. I don’t know about you; but, all this transparency just pisses me off and gives me a headache.

Best comment of the day

Wednesday, Nov 18,2009

Found this in the comments section of Michelle Malkin’s blog, Calling Dianne DeGette\’s bigotry and ignorance out.  

On November 18, 2009 at 10:46 am, Verogolfer said: Separation of church and state? How about a separation of stupidity from politics.           

As usual, a great article by Michelle, but this has to be the best comment of the day.

Quote of the day

Thursday, Nov 19, 2009

I happened to hear this on The Rush Limbaugh Show this morning:

Caller: “I think the American revolution was fought over less tyranny than what we are facing right now.”

Rush’s caller has hit on a truth that should not only scare the Hell out of people; but, more importantly, it should wake them the Hell up.

The darker side of the KSM trial

Friday, Nov 20, 2009

The idea put forth by Eric Holder and Barack Obama, to prosecute Khalid Sheik Mohammad (KSM) and his followers, in a criminal court here in the U.S. is nothing short of insane. Not only has KSM admitted to masterminding the 9/11 attack on the Twin Towers, he and his followers are enemy combatants. They belong to Al Qaeda, which is an army by their own definition; and, they have publicly proclaimed to be at war with the United States, many times. 

Yes, it is an insane notion, or is it? Quite a few people have been looking at the possible motives for doing this and there hasn’t been very many days that Rush, Mark Levin, or Glenn Beck  haven’t brought up the precedence that will be set by this trial. Even Lindsey (let’s create more Democrat voters) Graham got into Eric Holders face, on the matter, this week during Congressional hearings. But, I’m still waiting to hear someone hit on the really dark precedence that can be set by this whole circus and nobody seems to see what I’m seeing.

When Obama and Holder were confronted about this debacle, they both chimed in by saying, “Oh, don’t worry, these guys will be convicted and will receive the death sentence.” When Obama got pressed on this statement, he did do a little back peddling; but none the less, out of his mouth it came. 

If Khalid Shiekh Mohammad and his buddies are given all of our Constitutional rights, the case will have to be thrown out from the start because: they were not read there Constitutional right to remain silent when apprehended. But, if Obama and Holder keep their word and these terrorists are convicted and given the death sentence; we will no longer have a court system that goes by: Innocent until proven guilty. We won’t even have one that says: Guilty until proven innocent. We will have set precedence for: Guilty by government proclamation.

I can’t believe that this bunch of radicals are stupid enough to try this with an armed citizenry, but stranger things have happened. What I think is a more likely plan, is to have these terrorist’s cases thrown out due to the lack of Miranda, at which time they will be shipped off to the World Court in The Haag, to be tried for crimes against humanity and Obama can puff out his chest and say to the world, “Look at me. See how fair and just I’ve made America?”

Whether this turns out to be putting Bush, Cheney, and the CIA on trial, (which is a reasonable speculation) or these terrorists actually do get convicted here in the U.S., the outcome will not be good for you and me, Mr. and Mrs. America. And if you can’t see the intentional destruction being done to our great Republic by this group of progressives, socialists, and communists (with Obama as their leader) then odds are, you are one of them.

These people need to be removed from power; and, they need to be removed now.

Complaint free day

Saturday, Nov 21, 2009

Rep. Emanuel Cleaver (D-Mo) is proposing a House resolution for a “Complaint free day” on the day before Thanksgiving.” Wow! What a novel idea, especially since the majority of Americans are getting a belly full of un-Constitutional, freedom taking legislation from our (so called) Representatives.

Here is the logic from this thoughtful public servant:

From time to time, we all experience anxiety, frustration, stress, and regret. And often, we respond to these feelings with a criticism or a complaint. Regrettably, complaining keeps people stuck on current problems, inhibiting them from thinking constructively to find solutions. Research has also shown that complaining can be harmful to one’s emotional and physical health; relationships; and can limit professional career success.

 

I sure hope that the good congressman doesn’t think his idea is an original; because, I’m pretty sure that, even more comprehensive “complaint free days” policies have been implimented in places like: Myanmar, Cuba, N. Korea, and Iran.

I’m also pretty sure that the Taliban and Al Qaeda have been trying to work the kinks out of their own similar “complaint free days” policies for quite some time now.

Seriously Missouri, why wait until 2010. Fire this moron now. You really couldn’t do any worse without a representative than having this idiot working against you.

Where is the profit in believing a lie?

Tuesday, Nov 24, 2009

It almost seems as if half of the people in our country are suffering from a mental illness, in which delusional behavior rules the day. It must be what Limbaugh meant when he coined the phrase, “liberalism is a mental disorder.” But it’s still pretty unnerving to except the fact that so many arround us are more willing to believe in a lie rather than an obvious truth.

All of the reputable polls on the Democrat Health Care Bills are showing 51% against, 34% for and 15% undecided; but, no matter where you turn, there is someone telling you how the majority of Americans want government run health care. The really appalling thing about this is that it doesn’t come at you solely from uninformed people, it is even shoved down our throats by people from the press, net work news, cable news, and most of all, our President and Congress men and women who know damned well what the truth is.

This phenomenon was true with the first bail out, the second bail out, cash for clunkers, and etc. Sarah Palin’s popularity is debunked, even in the face of her massive book sales and the tens of thousands of people who turn out at her book signings. She is dismissed as being insignificant on a daily basis.

I can understand (to some extent) the dishonesty from the Democrats and the MSM; but, I’m at a loss to understand what makes an average, working , American deny what is right in front of their face. The only thing that could even come close to explaining this mindset is: These deniers of truth are so immature that they refuse to lose an argument no matter how much evidence there is stacked against them.

Whether this is a psychological disorder or the planned agenda of those on the left (all the way down to the liberal voters), it is a disease that has consumed nearly half of our society; and , I am very afraid for my children and grandchildren.

Now, we have conclusive proof that the eco-terrorists have withheld information that disproves their entire claim of man made global warming. And, the denying has already started… again.

Happy Thanksgiving

Thursday, Nov 26, 2009

Yes, it is a day to give thanks to God the Creator of the Universe and all that is in it; all that has been given to allow us to live safer, happier, more fulfilled lives. And, we should give thanks that our Creator has given enough Americans the ability to continue to understand what it takes to maintain His gifts of freedom and liberty that we may pass them on to our children and grandchildren.

I am sure that many will be giving thanks to the President and Congress for what they have; but, these are the unfortunate people who have lost sight of where freedom really comes from and the responsibilities that come with it. They are the ones that cannot look into the sky and see the magnificence of the Sun and realize that no man has the awesome power that is God’s. I pity them.

Our problems don’t come exclusively from those who have turned their back on our Creator. They also come from those who have the audacity to tell us they and they alone know what God wants and expects from us. How outrageous it is to attempt to give definition to the one who defined us? But, so many do and they are so fanatical they are willing to kill to force others to believe in their twisted beliefs. 

George W. Bush said something, when he was in office, that stuck in my mind. I cannot find the quote, so I’ll paraphrase it. “Man cannot grant mankind rights; only God can do that. Men only take rights away.” 

Keep the men and women, who are risking their lives to keep us safe, in your thoughts and prayers this day and every day.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Buyer’s remorse?

Washington state cop killer dead (what’s missing here?)

Tuesday, Dec 1, 2009

Accused cop killer Maurice Clemmons has been shot dead by a Seattle police officer who was investigating a reported stolen car, according to the Seattle Times. It is being reported that a lone Seattle patrol officer was investigating a possible stolen car when he encountered Clemmons. Apparently, Clemmons refused to follow the officer’s commands and continued to advance on the officer when he was shot and killed.

Now we can only hope that this brave police officer isn’t crucified for not taking this murdering bastard in alive. We are talking about Seattle here; and, Seattle is on the liberal left coast.

I was monitoring the Seattle Police radio frequency when this went down, and there was one thing that was said that was both amusing and ironic. One of the other officers that showed up at the scene, asked a dispatcher, over the radio, “What was the name of this guy we’ve been looking for?”

I can only imagine, this officer wanted the people who were listening in, to know that this POS was dead. I, also, hope this officer doesn’t get into trouble for trying to let the community breath a sigh of relief, a little earlier than the morning news.

There is something else that is troubling about all this. It isn’t just what Clemmons did, or the fact that so many of his friends and relatives helped him, it is: Where has Obama been throughout this whole ordeal?

Obama was quick to say the cops “acted stupidly” in the arrest of black Harvard Professor Henry Louis Gates, that led to the infamous “Beer Summit” fiasco. So where is he now? It has been a long built upon protocol that the leader of our country addresses tragedies of this magnitude and at least call the families who have lost their loved ones and offer our nations condolences. This should have been done immediately. 

This lack of reaction to such an horrific crime and his initial comments to the Ft. Hood massacre are beginning to guarantee Obama the title of the worst president this country has ever seen. In fact, I believe Obama to be one of the most disgusting people ever to be elected to any political office. And, I don’t think I’m the only one who rates him down there with the whores in Hollywood.  

I searched for, and could not find any news releases of Obama addressing this horrible situation. If anyone can point to anything different, I will be more than happy to retract and apologize for my remarks. I truthfully hope I am wrong on this; because, the thought of being right makes me sick.

Another Obama failure

Wednesday, Dec 2, 2009

I tried to listen to Obama’s entire speech last night; but, the speech was predictable and about as boring and humorless as an I Love Lucy re-run. About three quarters of the way through his speech, I found that I couldn’t keep my eyes open. I went and took a nap.

I did get the major points of the speech and after reading the transcript, I found the remainder of the speech to be what I had suspected it would be. Repetitive. But for those of you who did not get a chance to hear it, I can put it in a nut shell for you.

Here it is: “Bush is bad, its Bush’s fault, its McChrystal’s fault, I, your President and Commander in Chief am the only person on earth that can make the ‘Tollybon’ and ‘Al kayduh’ go away. And by the way, I will pull all our troops out in 18 months. (wink, wink) Did you get that ‘Tollybon’? ‘Al kayduh’?” The end.

By the way, Mr. (I, me, me, mine) President, the timing of the troop withdrawal (just before the 2012 election cycle) was not lost on anyone.

Thanks to Obama’s stupidity, the enemy now knows that all they have to do is go to ground for 18 months and then they can go back to their Satanic, murdering ways. And, I will add: The blood of any of our soldiers killed, between now and the time of your retreat, will be on your hands, Mr. President.

Also, a big ole’ sweeping trucker’s hat tip to Michelle Malkin for doing the leg work again in finding and exposing the state run MSM. Here’s Chris (I got a thrill up my leg) Matthews at his usual best.

Would someone please put MSNBC out of its misery, so Matthews can go back to selling orthopedic shoes to elderly ladies?

Abnormally normal?

Wednesday, Dec 2, 2009

I am becoming a fan of James Delingpole, a British blogger for the uk Telegraph, who is a staunch opponent to the Global Warming movement (fraud). James’ posts are always brittle[y] biting and British-ly to the point; and, even though he seems to be stuck on the AGW topic, I seem to enjoy his rants more and more.

While reading Delingpole’s post this morning, I found myself snickering at every paragraph from a contribution sent in from one of James’ readers and a fellow blogger. Yes, this piece is funny; but, it also rings true on so many points. So, sit back, ignore the differences in spelling, and have a laugh.

Using a highly reliable measuring system know as the five senses, human beings in their billions have come to the conclusion, that the only certainty about the weather on planet earth, is that it keeps on changing in very strange ways. Some times hot, sometimes cold, sometimes wet, sometimes dry. This mind blowing discovery that affects all our lives has been dubbed Global Norming. Otherwise know as Climate Strange. What effects this will have on future generations nobody knows, but one thing everyone agrees on is that the effects of Global Norming will be devastating.

To help alleviate the terrifying effects of Climate Strange a panel of experts has been formed to collate scientific research from around the world into a series of reports to the United Nations, detailing exactly how strange Global Norming might be. As a result it has been found without doubt, through a data modelling process called normalisation, that the normality of strange climatic behaviour will continue for ever.

Everyone with a brain and even those without, now agree that this will result in the complete annihilation of mankind at an unknown point in the future. To ensure that this does not occur a system of global governance or Globatorship has been formed to organise the pre-annihilation of all peoples likely to be affected by the devastating effects of Climate Strange – which politicians agree will occur in direct relation to the amount pigmentation in their skin and/or money in their bank account or pocket.

This is to be financed by a Hardon tax that will help facilitate the study of the constantly rising and falling temparature and moisture levels at the very center of the Global Norming phenomena. But opposition is mounting as humans and animals alike, complain that Hardon is essential to all life on earth. But the absense of Hardon in the creation of plant life and in the upper atmosphere has left the pro-human lobby without a voice at the negotiating table.

Agreement on action to combat Climate Strange, is being sought at the highest levels at a summit in Copenhagen, where world leaders are meeting to discuss how far they are willing to go to save the planet. Through a show of normal behaviour that includes blocking out all information to the five senses, while demonstrating their own Hardon emission limits, they hope to convince each other and the world that Climate Strange can be controlled by the members of a coming Globatorship.

However concerns are growing that Global Norming theory is a sham after scientists were caught acting extreme abnormally themselves, by falsifying results and corrupting the review process to get more funding. The climatology community has rallied round, stating that this is in fact perfectly normal behaviour for scientists and therefore confirms the Global Norming hypothesis, even as their credibility continues to melt.

Despite this, world leaders are attempting to reassure the public that should Hardon emmissions exceed mandated levels, the merging of the EU and the UN into an EUgeNic Globatorship will guarantee pre-annihilation for all, after the capture and trading of emissions, before Global Norming gets out of control and things become even more strange.

Please forward this message via links and emails to all the presidents, prime-ministers, senators, commissars, member of parliament, ambassadors, rabbis, priests, imans, gurus and real people that you know, to help them understand the absurdity of the United Nations climate change agenda and open their senses to the strange climatological normality that is the weather.

Global Warming: The biggest case of fraud the world has ever seen!

Thursday, Dec 3, 2009

The biggest case of fraud against humanity the world has ever seen; and, the perpetrators, who hold high places in governments around the world, the scientific community, and the United Nations, want to prosecute those who have uncovered their scam.

The real fight has yet to be fought!

Why don’t we just let him out?

Monday, Dec 7, 2009

AP is reporting , in an article posted on Breitbart, that condemned killer, Kenneth Biros, has been denied a last minute appeal to a stay of execution. Biros was convicted in the 1991 murder of a 22 year old Ohio woman, after offering her a ride home from a bar.

Biros killed 22-year-old Tami Engstrom near Warren in 1991 after offering to drive her home from a bar, then scattered her body parts in Ohio and Pennsylvania.

 

The only appeals Tami Engstrom got, fell on the the deaf ears of her executioner, Kenneth Biros.

A federal judge earlier Monday refused to delay Biros’ execution. The next step would be an appeal to the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati. That court on Friday refused to delay the execution but indicated that it anticipated further appeals. Biros’ attorney, Timothy Sweeney, did not immediately return calls Monday to ask how he planned to proceed.

The 6th Circuit on Friday rejected a related request to delay Biros’ execution, a decision he appealed Monday to the U.S. Supreme Court.

In Monday’s ruling, U.S. District Judge Gregory Frost in Columbus said Ohio’s execution system still has flaws that “raise profound concerns and present unnecessary risks.”

But the judge also wrote, it appears unlikely that Kenneth Biros can “demonstrate that those risks rise to the level of violating the United States Constitution.

 

Uhh… Maybe we should give the health care debate a rest and focus a little on our criminal appeals system. I mean, Biros has only been on death row for 20 years, and his situation is just now being resolved.

In asking Frost for a stay, Biros had argued that the new execution method still left vein access issues unresolved, subjecting him to the risk of severe pain, and had described the new one-drug approach as “impermissible human experimentation.” The judge in his ruling called the arguments “unpersuasive.”

 

You’re shittin’ me, right? With all of this combined education and practical experience in law and these morons are still worried about causing this butcher a little pain?

Like I’ve said before, “We’ve gotta hit that reset button and we’ve gotta do it now.”

Hey, Al!

Hey, Al. Yeah, you, Al Gore. Do you see the picture? Al? It’s at the top of Matt Drudge’s page… Al. I know you have a computer; because you invented the Inter Net… Al.

Anyway… Al, the caption says 15 foot snow drifts!

How about this picture… Al? This is in Wisconsin. How can this be… Al?

Oh, by the way… Al; I’ve been fighting with iced up stock tanks, for the last day… Al. Yeah, Al Gore, it’s been below zero here in Idaho… Al. The forecast is for more sub zero temps for the next day or two… Al. And it’s 2 weeks until the start of winter… Al.

Here’s a thought… Al. Why don’t you and all the other stupid Bastards stay there in Carbonhagen, (I like that. Thanks Fox news.) And keep Barack Husein Obama…mmmm…mmmm…mmmm, over there with you? 

The fraud has been exposed… Al.

We are coming for you in the House of Representatives, we are coming for you in the Senate, and we are coming for you, Mr. Obama. We are coming for you in 2010 and we are coming for you in 2012. If we come for you sooner… well, I guess that will be up to all of you in Washington.

Liberal vocabulary

 Communitarianism

Wednesday, Dec 16, 2009

“Socialism” is to “Progressive” as “homosexuality” is to “gay”; that is, to state the obvious, a Progressive is a Socialist and a gay person is a homosexual. The labels have been changed, in both cases, to create a more palatable image of an otherwise unwanted or unsavory state of being. The term, “Benevolent Dictator” was used to give the appearance that a dictatorial ruler only had the best interest of his people at heart; but, “Dear Leader” gives an even greater impression of altruism and goodness. The bottom line is: It is deceit. Nothing more, nothing less.

Liberals are the masters of deceit. They are the inventors of focus groups and spend huge amounts of time and money, studying which words and phrases will further their agenda or hide the true outcome of their schemes. They are, also, the masters of redefining who their opponents are. To believe in the Constitution is to be part of the “Radical Right Wing Fringe.” If you practice Christianity, you are a “Right Wing Christian Fundamentalist”; every bit as dangerous as the Muslim fundamentalist that pulled off the 9/11 attacks. 

Now, there is another word that seems to be floating around just under the radar. The word is Communitarianism. It’s the same thing as Communism but not quite as bloody sounding. Oh, the left will scream and stomp their feet and tell you it is nothing more than being involved in the community; but, that’s just the usual smoke screen they throw up: deny, deny, deny.

The true intention behind using Communitarianism instead of Communism is simple. Redefine Communism by making it seem smaller, make it appealing to participate in, and make it appear to be something arrived at unanimously. After all, who doesn’t want to be involved in their community? The problem is, the community the left is talking about is the whole damned country.

We conservatives know the tactics of the left; so, why do they keep coming up with crap like this? The answer is: students. Yep, students from kindergarten to university. That has always been the target of Communists. Khruschev proudly told us this 50 years ago. Even though Khruschev and the Soviet Union are no longer around, it doesn’t mean Communists aren’t still trying to take over America.  

So, if some Code Pink freak or A.C.O.R.N. nut proudly puffs his or her chest out and tells you they are a Communitarian or they believe in Communitarianism, look them in the eye and tell them they are nothing more than a garden variety Communist and they are the enemy.

Personally, I would add something about their well being… but, that’s just me.

Is there any doubt left?

Thursday, Dec 17, 2009

It’s been said many times, “the environmental movement is the new home of Socialism/Communism.” One example after another has been cited pointing to socialist involvements by Earth First, Peta, Green Peace, and other environmental groups, through recruitment, funding, and protest organization; but, it is evident that a large number of Americans still cannot connect the dots.

Here is a little something that should help all of you who still haven’t figured out the real agenda behind the Global Warming movement. It is Hugo Chavez’s anti-capitalist (rant) speech in Carbonhagen. It isn’t the speech that is so telling; rather, listen to the applause this Communist bastard gets.

Chavez does us one favor. He chooses to show the real intent of the AGW crowd, to change the system first and then the climate. He knows, changing the political systems of free nations is far more realistic than changing something we have absolutely no power over. The world’s climate.

These people must be defeated. Our very freedom depends upon their being stopped, once again. We must, also, except the fact that Socialists and Communists will never go away. They will come back time and time again, to push their agenda, each time, under the guise of a different manufactured world crisis.

The idiots at Homeland Security

Monday, Dec 28, 2009

Janet Napoleanna, (did I spell that right?) has shown the nation, once again, what a complete and utter blundering idiot she is. Her first response to the failed bombing attempt of a U.S. airliner, on Christmas day, was to announce to the public that the system had worked just fine. She later made a statement that an aide had released false information; and in fact, the system had failed miserably. Kind of like, “I voted for the war before I voted against the war.” Only this time, Napolitano had the presence of mind to throw an aide under the bus, instead of falling on the sword herself.

It would be humorous if the only repercussions from this incident was the embarrassed faces of the DHS people; but, the stupidity doesn’t stop here. Now we are being told that airline passengers are to have nothing on their laps and their hands in plain sight for an hour after take-off and an hour before landing. And these people are paid big money to think of crap like this?

Not only is this over reaction playing into the hands of the terrorists, (remember,the object is to terrorize) it brings up some real and although funny, but, obvious questions. For instance: What happens when a passenger, unthinkingly, leans forward and scratches a nagging itch on his/her back? Are they going to get rushed and tased from some plain clothed TSA agent? Oh, and God forbid if that annoying itch is on their ankle. That might even warrant being throttled by a flying Dutchman! What about potty breaks? Say, just for arguments sake, an uncaring passenger dines on chili-kraut dogs and beer before boarding the plane. Are the rest of the passengers going to be forced to endure the resulting unpleasant smells, for the 2 hour halo, because this guy can’t use the bathroom?

The questions could go on and on; but, the bottom line is this: The current crop of government officials are not equipped with any problem solving abilities. They can only come up with more restrictions that only punish the innocent passengers and do nothing to address the root problem. Let’s face it, all of the terror attacks to date, have been committed by Muslims from either North Africa or the Middle East, not 74 year old grandmothers on their way to visit the kids for the holidays.

Until we can break the chains of political correctness and start concentrating on those most likely to commit acts of terror, we will never make any headway on the war against terror. Even then, we need to understand that each time we prevail, the terrorists will be thinking up new ways to attack us.

For now, us common citizens, will continue to feel as though we are not only being threatened by religious fanatics that want us all to go back to living in caves; but, that we are also in peril from a government that values political correctness and multi-culuralism more than the safety and well being of its citizens.

Just like Ft. Hood, Obama fails on flight 253 address

Monday, Dec 28, 2009

Obama’s response to the failed bombing attempt of flt. 253, from Amsterdam to Detroit, comes off just as cold and emotionless as his response to the jihadist murders of the 14 people at Ft. Hood, Tx.

 If you can stomach it, you can watch the video here.

I don’t know, maybe it’s my disgust for Obama and all the socialist pigs in Washington; but, it seems like he just couldn’t wait to get back to his vacation.

One of those days

Tuesday, Dec 29, 2009

This is starting out to be one of those days that, if I say what is really on my mind, my front door might get busted down by the brown shirts by noon. So, I’ll start off by directing your attention to a couple of articles in the Washington Times, that are sure to raise your blood pressure. And, your sure not going to hear about these things on the evening news, or, read about them in the New York Post or the S.F. Chronicle.

Justice Transfers Panther Pursuer Out of DC Office. If they make you look bad, get them the hell out of there. Right, Atty. Gen. Holder? What would of happened if it was the KKK instead of the New Black Panthers? (Just a thought.)

Plan to turn farms into forests worries Obama oficial. Worried? I don’t think so. Just another out of control government dept. (the EPA) caught with its pants down; and, now they have to do a little back peddling to make it look like they are really doing the people’s work. (You know, control the banks, control industry, control the schools, control health care, and control the FOOD SUPPLY.)

Hopefully, later on today, visions of pitchfork wielding mobs will have departed my frontal lobes and I will be able to sit down and write something other than… …Rise up and break the chains of oppression, my brothers and sisters!

BINGO!

The vile little people on the left

Thursday, Dec 31, 2009

I wasn’t going to jump on the Rush well wisher bandwagon and use my blog to show everyone how compassionate I am. My prayers have always been something I consider personal and between God and myself. However, after reading the disgusting hate filled crap put out by those who claim to be the only ones capable of compassion (liberals), I felt  compelled to share a minor Epiphany I experienced.

For the most part, the comment threads on liberal sites as well as some MSM sites were rude, crude, and vulgar. They were generously sprinkled with the “F” word, in various forms, and the words “fat”,”bastard” and “die” were popular main stays. These commenters labeled Rush as hurtful, hateful, and destructive without once seeing the irony of their words. 

Of coarse, there were the posters that shrieked about how Rush was homophobic and some even went as far as playing the race card; at the same time, deriding him of being a ”rich old white guy.” 

Yes, the kind and loving liberals were in full display, last night, hatefully wishing not just death, but, a long drawn out painful death on another human being. We all knew this was coming as soon as the news came out that Rush was in the hospital. But, much like preparing ourselves for the death of an aged relative, who has been ailing for some time, we are still shocked by their passing.

What could possibly have injected these people with this much hate and venom? Especially in a country so full of bounty and promise. I sometimes wonder if our Creator just stopped handing out souls. It boggles the mind; considering that, anyone who has ever listened to Rush knows, he consistently wishes only success and the best for everyone. Not success in the destruction of this country, but, personal success, business success, an overall success that is possible to achieve through honesty and hard work. Why wish a person dead for that?

As I spoke of my epiphany, so too, there is irony in that.  At some point last night, as I read the comments from the vile little people on the left, I realized that these foul creatures were making the most convincing argument for abortion, I have ever heard in my entire life. Let’s face it, conservatives do not believe in the murder of unborn children. Liberals do. So, if abortion on demand was made legal in every state, the only ones that would choose it would be liberals, who are more than likely going to raise…  …more liberals.

If it weren’t for my strong convictions on the sanctity of life, it would almost work. But, it is still the best argument to date. At least for me.

I sure hope God doesn’t punish people for epiphanies. And, Rush, get well soon!

Best wishes for a new year, from my family to yours!

Lydia Guzman, SVREP, ACORN, and The Tides Foundation

Monday, January 4. 2010

Lydia Guzman, director of the nonprofit group Respect/Respeto, is in the news for organizing an early warning system, via text messages, to alert Hispanics to crime sweeps conducted by the Maricopa Co. Sheriffs Dept. headed by Sheriff Joe Arpaio.

Ms. Guzman’s organization is a pro-immigration group, that advocates open borders; and, she openly admits that her text messages, more than likely, alert illegal aliens to any up coming police activity that may put them at risk of being caught and deported. Guzman also indicates that her group forwards these e-mails to the Arizona chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU).

Like me, you’re probably scratching your head and thinking, “yeah, so what’s new?” The answer is: not much. But, let’s look at what’s old. Lydia Guzman started her community organizing career at an early age. She started going door to door, registering Latino voters when she was in her early teens. And after many years as a Latino voter activist, she was named the Arizona State Director for the Southwest Vote Registration and Education Project (SVREP) in 2004.

Among Ms. Guzman’s duties at SVREP, was to co-ordinate with Get Out the Vote (GOTV), one of many of ACORN’s umbrella organizations; of which, President Obama, was and still is, involved with. SVREP’s ties with ACORN and other leftist community organizations, are also apparent, in a joint law suit that challenged Arizona’s voter identification requirement law, in June of 2008.

But wait, it gets even better. SVREP can be linked with the ultra left wing TIDES foundation. You know, the same TIDES foundation that brought such wonderful anti-capitalist videos to our children’s classrooms like: The Story of Stuff. SVREP has been the recipient of TIDES grant money as recently as 2006.

Yes, birds of a socialist feather flock together; and, Lydia Guzman hasn’t change any feathers over the years. Although, her current involvement with Respect/Respeto claims to be advocates, fighting the bad Sheriff Arpaio, against criminal profiling, they are still heavily involved with GOTV. And, what really boggles the mind is: Why anyone would advocate open borders with a country that is plagued with drug cartels and vicious gangs who, are  not only responsible for the murder of thousands; but, further terrorize people by leaving the dismembered body parts scattered all over the country.

If anything, we should be doing all we can to encourage Hispanics to join the conversation on how to secure our borders and stop the infiltration of drugs and violent gangs into our country. But, as usual, the left is on the wrong side of the argument again.

No, Sheriff Joe Arpaio is not the problem. But, the Lydia Guzmans of our country are.

Blessing, or Trojan Horse?

Tuesday, Jan 6, 2010

We can now add 3 more names to the list of Democrats, who are throwing in the towel before the 2010 election cycle begins to heat up. Last Tuesday, Sen. Byron Dorgan (D-ND) announced that he will not be seeking re-election; and, on the same day, Colorado Governor Bill Ritter (Dem) informed his party that he too, would not run for another term. Sen. Chris (I’m a friend of Angelo) Dodd, makes up the 3rd, with his announcement, on Saturday, that he too will not seek another term.

While most conservatives are standing up cheering this news, it gives me the (slick) willies. Democrats do not do anything for nothing. We Republicans need to think outside the box; or, what’s inside this pretty, big wooden, Trojan Horse.

At the very minimum, the Dems are pulling out their high risk politicos now, in order to give them time to put in some attractive young new-comers, they can package as moderates to sell to the middle-of-the-road, mush brains of our country. This makes a lot of sense considering the overwhelming negative reaction the Dems are getting on health care and cap and tax.

The other possibility is that Obama, Axlerod, and Emanuel are going to do something so vile and drastic, that even these old hacks don’t want any part of it. And that’s what has me spooked.

No, I’m not wearing a tin foil hat. This administration is hard core socialist and they want to change this country now. Don’t think for a second, that these guys aren’t capable of bringing America to her knees in a matter of days.

It doesn’t matter what it is that makes it look like rats jumping off of a sinking ship, we have to stay on our toes. Health care doesn’t need to be reformed, trial lawyers do. And, Cap and Trade is a massive job killer and the wholesale give-away of our nation’s sovereignty.

We cannot afford to allow the Democrats to stay in power; so, before you vote third party, remember how Ross Perot handed Bill Clinton a victory.

Think before you vote. Elections have consequences.

Should damaged credit ratings be repaired?

Monday, Jan 11, 2010

An interesting question popped into my head this week-end and evolved to the point of discussion between my wife and myself. That question being: Should credit ratings damaged by this Government’s incompetence be restored? Of course, a reversal of current economic policy (whether by the Democrats or the Republicans) would have to be accomplished  before this question could be seriously considered.

Obama and his czars can certainly be blamed for for a huge amount of the economic damage inflicted on us; but, the bungling idiots in Washington have been experimenting with social justice for a long time. In fact, let’s call it social engineering; since, they have tried to create a system that would allow people, who could not yet afford mortgage payments, get that piece of the American dream called home ownership.

The resulting corrective actions taken for this disaster, have been damned near as bad as the original idea. Bail-outs have had to be given to the Automobile industry, Banking industry, Wall St., and all the way down to the individual on Elm St., and it’s not working. Small and medium sized businesses have been forced to close and those who, in a previously healthy economy, could afford their mortgage payments have had to walk away from their homes.

As far as I know, no one has called a time out on credit scoring. And that brings me back to my original question: Should damaged credit ratings, damaged as a result of government policy, be repaired? This may sound like a simple question; but, it is not. It actually brings up more questions, some that cannot be answered unless an action is taken.

A lot of fraud can be conceived of after the fact; but, I want to focus on the more immediate question of implementation of a program like this and the initial problems that could arise.  

Who would administer a program like this? The government, who created the mess in the first place? I think it would be safe to say, this corrupt over bloated government could even be suspect in appointing someone to over see the process. And if we did find a neutral party to arbitrate the restoration of credit, what kind of backlash would we see from those who would be deemed unqualified? There have already been law suits filed by those who sold 3 bedroom 1 bath houses, in California, for $500,000 and lost everything because they turned around and bought way over their heads elsewhere. Could we expect to be deluged by more suits by this sector? And how about the folks who received sub prime loans? You can bet the ACLU and ACORN would be playing the victim card here. How much time and tax payer money are we willing to spend to find out which independent trucker or mom and pop grocery store, that went out of business, was due to bad choices or government meddling? The questions could continue, but I think I’ve made my point.

One concept would be for the government to back loans for the purpose of giving, those who deserve it, a chance to rebuild their credit ratings. But then we are back throwing our trust to the same people who manage to screw up every single thing they touch.

Even though it is a noble idea to fix things, it can also turn into a real nightmare. And, I don’t have the answers, just the questions.

Think before you vote. Elections have consequences.

Federal Grand Jury to investigate Joe Arpaio?

Friday, Jan 8, 2010

Foxnews.com is breaking a story that Arizona’s Maricopa co. Sheriff Joe Arpiao may be under investigation by a Federal Grand Jury. Not a surprise, considering that Arpaio recently thumbed his nose at Eric Holder’s Justice Dept., when told to stop enforcing immigration laws. He has also been accused of abuse, in the form of racial profiling, by allegedly conducting crime sweeps in predominately Hispanic neighborhoods. (Everyone knows there is more crime in the retirement communities in Sun City!)

If you read the entire article, you will see the real reason for this B.S. investigation of one of our country’s last true law enforcement officials. And it smells rotten to the core, with Chicago politics come to Arizona.

You have to give Fox some credit, for spraying a little Raid on the cockroaches with this:

Arpaio and an ally are embroiled in nasty legal disputes with county officials and judges. Two county supervisors and one county judge have been criminally charged in investigations by Arpaio and County Attorney Andrew Thomas.

Last month, Arpaio and Thomas filed a federal racketeering lawsuit against a group of county administrators, judges and attorneys, accusing them of participating in a conspiracy to hinder an investigation into a $341 million court building under construction in Phoenix and the investigation of Supervisor Don Stapley

It seems like since Obama took office, the criminals have come out of the woodwork and are operating in broad daylight, with the blessing of U.S. Atty. Eric Holder.

And another thing: I wouldn’t bet against the possibility of Lydia Guzman and her Respect/Respeto open borders cronies being a driving force for this obvious retaliation against Sheriff Joe Arpiao. Guzman was in the news last week for organizing a text message warning system to alert Hispanics and illegal aliens of any ”crime sweeps” conducted by Arpaio’s deputies.

New rules of engagement that put our troops at risk and threatens them with court marshals if any civilians are hurt in the process of taking out terrorists, threats against our intelligence community if they are too harsh when interrogating captured terrorists, court marshals for Navy Seals who captured the Jihadi bastard that murdered and mutilated the bodies of Blackwater employees (because he said they gave him a fat lip), dropped charges against New Black Panther party goons for voter intimidation (when there is video evidence and eye witness accounts proving the case), giving enemy combatants Constitutional rights, a Dept. of Homeland Security that has more holes than Swiss cheese (and on and on.) And now? A Grand Jury investigation of a law enforcement officer for….enforcing the law!

How much longer are we going to put up with this reeking pile of garbage we call Washington D.C. and the liberal, corrupt, pigs (including the spineless Republicans and RINOs) who are running it?  Where is the tipping point? And most importantly, will the tipping point come too late?

The Martha Coakley effect

Wednesday, Jan 13, 2010

In 1983 Ronald Reagan announced his Strategic Defence Initiative (dubbed ”Star Wars” by Reagan’s detractors) a system of space based laser missile defence platforms, theoretically, designed to protect the U.S. from any incoming ICBMs from the Soviet Union. Many historians believe that Reagan also used the threat of Star Wars to push the Russians toward economic collapse, by forcing them to put more money into the ”Arms Race” with an already strained economy; and, ultimately achieve an end to the ”Cold War.” Whether Reagan’s “Star Wars” plan ended the Cold War or not, history shows that it did play an important part. And we conservatives may have come upon our own “Star Wars” like plan.

Starting with the ”Tea Party” movement, there has been an idea set forth, urging conservatives to withhold contributions to the RNC and send money directly to individual candidates (as a message to the RNC that unless they start selecting Conservative candidates, we will not support them.) And, the fact that we can contribute to candidates in States other than the ones we reside in, has also been spread.

Martha Coakley (the Democrat candidate for the Mass. special election to fill the late Sen. Kennedy’s seat) may be the victim of this “Tea Party” strategy. Although Scott Brown (Coakley’s opponent) may not be what we conservatives are ultimately looking for in a Republican candidate, we also realize that Massachusetts is the deepest of the blue states; and, have stepped up and given Scott the financial resourses needed to mount a successful campaign (over $1 million overnight.)

These contributions caught the Dems completely off guard and staggered them to the point of pulling out all the stops. The DNC has been forced to dump some $580,000 into Coakley’s campaign as well as over $600,000 plus, from the unions. Not to mention, having to send some big guns (Bill Clinton being one) in to help convince the voters that Scott Brown is really a hybrid of Bush, Cheney, and Rush.

Being this close in the ultimate of liberal States, is nothing short of amazing. But, we need understand (and learn) what we can do when we pool our resources. Make the Dems (and the unions) spend as much money as we can force them to spend. And, do so in every race. Even if we don’t pick up a seat in Mass., we’ve already rocked their boat.        

Just as the Russians were financially strapped because of the arms race in the 80s, the Democrats are only one seat away from losing a “super majority” and getting pretty low on “political capital.” 

Do I smell blood in the water? You’re damned right I do.

Glover and Robertson

Friday, Jan 15, 2010

I have had one of my many spies, (one, who was assigned to Hollywood liberals) hit major pay dirt, recently. It happened when my operative chanced seeing Pat Robertson and Danny Glover enter a ritzy cocktail lounge, in Tinseltown, together.

Being one of my top operatives, (name withheld) called me, to inform me of the situation and ask if they (my spy) could use the expense account to buy drinks in order to appear like an ordinary customer. I said, “Yes, yes, this sounds very unusual. Sit close and get everything.”

This is what (name withheld) over heard:

Glover: Bartender. Scotch and water; make it a double and…what do you want, Robertson?

 

Robertson: I don’t care, Danny. Make it one of those umbrella drinks.

 

Glover: And one of those froo-froo drinks with a hat.

 

Glover: So, Robertson, you’re saying that the media is biased toward the left? Where do you come up with crap like this?

 

Robertson: They really are. Look how all the major news outlets ignored the “Tea Party” protests.

 

Glover: What? Why the hell would NBC cover some idiot protesting little old ladies having a tea party? Come on, man, get a grip.

 

Robertson: No, Danny, they are. Look at all the ”Tea Party” protests. They’ve been held everywhere; even in Wash..

 

Glover: Oh, for cryin’ out loud. You been sniffin’ glue or something? Tell you what. I’m a famous Hollywood actor involved in saving the planet and loved by millions. And you’re a Radical right wing Christian fundamentalist, known by a lot of people in Iowa. You know, both well known. Right? Right. I’ll prove to you that the media isn’t biased.

 

You say something outrageous, to the news people, and I’ll wait a few days and say something off the wall too. Then you’ll see how fair the news is. Deal?

 

Robertson: Welllll…I don’t know.

 

Glover: Come on man. You’re the one that brought all this up.

 

Robertson: O.K. I guess… Oh my, look at the time. I really have to get going. I’ll talk to you again soon, Danny.

 

Glover: Yeah, right. Bye.

 

Bartender: Another drink, Mr. Glover?

 

Glover: Yeah… Hey, kid. What could I say that would piss those Right Wing Radicals off, and still be true?

 

Bartender: Oh, that’s easy, Mr. Glover. Say anything about Global Warming. It’s all true and those neo-cons just can’t stand it.

 

And, so it went. 

Well, maybe my imagination did get away from me there; but, the point is: Robertson and Glover are like two peas in a pod. Both are idiots and, for the life of me, I can’t understand why so many people even listen to them.

My opinion: Let the left have Pat Robetson too!

Massachusetts Miracle

Saturday, Jan 16, 2010

Hat tip to Michelle Malkin for helping to spread this fantastic video. This needs to go beyond viral, it needs to go Super Nova!

And also from Ms. Malkin’s post, an equally profound comment:

On January 16th, 2010 at 10:28 am, Pasadena Phil said:

I realize that most of the country can’t believe that MA could possibly be fertile ground for the Tea Party message but having lived half of my adult life in Boston and most of my life in MA. I completely get it.

The original Tea Party was in Boston and MA residents have long been proud of their history but cynical about their politics but have been powerless to do anything about it since the political system was so rigged.

Suddenly a small crack of opportunity opens to quickly grow into a wide chasm as the Tea Party message slips through and resonates within the historical context of their long frustration. It is now a viral phenomenon.

It makes perfect sense that the pivotal moment for the Tea Party movement would occur in Boston. It is beautiful historical symmetry. If Brown wins, Boston Harbor re-affirms its status as a national symbol for the latest struggle to shake off tyranny in our own time.

All the ingredients have been added, stirred, and left to simmer. Now, it’s time to bring it up to a boil and serve it to the Left, piping hot!

From the animal planet:

Tuesday, Jan 19, 2010

The Hyena, (often referred to as the “laughing hyena” for their hysterical laughter when calling others of their kind to a feeding frenzy) is one of the most disgusting creatures of the “animal world.” They are indiscriminate in their eating habits, often feeding on the dead or dying. However, they are also known to hunt in packs, isolating the very young or the sick and old, for an easy kill.

Hyenas live in socialist groups led by dominant females. (see above photograph) And, the females of the species have even developed genitalia that has a striking resemblance to male (hyena) genitalia, to appear stronger and more fierce.

Their young are raised in daycare centers, where they are indoctrinated in the “pack’s” “group think” agenda and not interfere with the search for food.

Hyenas have been a dominant force for many years; but, their reign of terror may be coming to an end, as others are waking up to their deceitful ways.

Beware the Jackal, for they eat their own young.

“…this guy with the BARN coat …”?!?

Thursday, Jan 21, 2010

Yes, we know the Left considers the voting public as nothing more than a heard of cows; but, after the people of Massachusetts rocked their world by voting in an “anti health care bill” Republican to fill the seat left empty by Sen. Ted Kennedy, their heads are spinning so fast they are in danger of flying completely off their bodies. But, when Chris (tingley) Matthews “gets it” and the Dems still don’t, you know they are so far gone, they have entered into the self destruct mode.

If you haven’t already seen this exchange, between Matthews and Howard Dean, please watch the video. It will show you 2 things, 1) Just how stupid the Left thinks we are. And 2) Just how stupid the Left really is. 

Just because we’ve won a battle, doesn’t mean we’ve won the war. Don’t let up. Keep the pressure on your elected officials. Keep filling their voice mail boxes and e-mail accounts. They need to have their faces rubbed in the message of Massachusetts until they “get it.”

Elections have consequences. Think before you vote.

How pathetic!?!

Monday, Jan 25, 2010

Obama and the his Democrat supporters chided Sarah Palin for not being informed enough to be qualified to hold the office of Vice President of the United States (Wasilla, Alaska? … Hick!) But, Obama himself cannot complete 2 coherent sentences without his teleprompters. (uh-uh, um-uh-uh.) 

Well, it seems this narcissistic, bumbling idiot, of a President has taken the art of displaying his ineptitude to a new low. After addressing students at the Graham Road Elementary School in Falls Church, Va. Tuesday, Jan 19, Obama apparently needed his teleprompters set up in order to answer questions from the press, after the event.

You would think, that a guy who is running the most powerful country in the world, who is in charge of 2 wars, who wants to take over the auto industry, the banking industry, the health care industry, and the student loan business would have enough on the ball to answer a few questions offered by the press without the help of a teleprompter. I mean, jeez, Hugo Chavez doesn’t even own a teleprompter. Does he?

And another thing. Why is this guy out spreading propaganda to elementary school kids, while the country is circling around in the toilet bowl? (All Bush’s fault.)

The use of a teleprompter, to answer questions at a presser, should be proof enough for Congress that Obama is not competent enough to lead this country; and therefore, should be removed from office ASAP. Of course, if we did that, we would then have Joe Biden sitting in the Oval Office drooling all day.  

How’s that ”Hope and Change” workin’ out for you, Ellie Light?

I’ve been waiting for this!

Tuesday, Jan 26, 2010

Obama has been claiming he wasn’t aware of certain, damning, situations since his campaign. Does the name Bill Ayers ring a bell? Or, how about, when he claimed that he wasn’t aware of the hate speech spewed out by his preacher (the Rev. Wright) after attending his church for 20 years? Do you remember his total surprise when he found out his aunt was here in the U.S. illegally? And then we had then Governor of Ill. Rod Blagojevitch having phone call negotiations with the White House, for the outright sale of Obama’s U.S. Senate seat, but again, Obama knew nothing of this.    

Yes, Pres. Obama has dodged responsibility, by claiming ignorance, on one smelly situation after another. And now comes the mother of all dodges. The one I’ve been waiting for.

For the last year we’ve heard the health care bill referred to as ”President Obama’s health care bill” day in and day out, by the press, both Democrats and Republicans in the House and Senate, and members of Obama’s cabinet. Even the President, himself, has referred to this train wreck as “my health care plan.”

But, the truth is, Obama never had a health care plan. He never put anything on paper and said, “here is my health care plan.” And, this was done for a reason. That reason being: If things started going south for “Obama’s health care plan,” he could raise his hands with palms out and say, “Hey, Congress wrote this bill, I didn’t have anything to do with that process.”

Wallah! Shit goes south, and, just like clock work, Obama didn’t make any deals to buy votes for health care…

Snort! ….If you asked him who Ellie Light is, what do you think he’ll say?

Left out of yesterday’s post

Wednesday, Jan 27, 2010

Just like any writer with a conscience, I try to be as original as possible and not just parrot the news. I’m constantly looking for things I think are important that others may have missed or just glossed over. A lot of times I will see something I think is important and leave it alone, thinking that others will pick it up and run with it before I get done typing. Most of the time I’m right. Sometimes I’m wrong and very surprised. Yesterday I got surprised.  

There was something in Obama’s interview with Diane Sawyer, that made me spit coffee; but, I didn’t bring it up in yesterday’s post for fear of being repetitious of the major conservative talkers and bloggers. It is this: 

There is a legislative process that is taking place in Congress and I am happy to own up to the fact that I have not changed Congress and how it operates the way I would have liked.

What is Obama saying here? That he’s happy he didn’t change the way Congress operates because he doesn’t have the authority, but he would if he could? Or, he thinks he has the power to change how Congress operates, but he’s happy he didn’t; since, he got what he wanted? Anyway you read this, it just oozes with arrogance. So, excuse me, Mr. Obama, you are not in charge of  how the Legislative branch of government works. Nor are you in charge of the Judicial branch of government. You are the Commander in Chief of our nations military and in charge of the Executive branch of government; and, your powers are limited by the Constitution, just like the other two branches of government. It is called “checks and balances.”

If the Legislative branch is operating beyond their Constitutional authority (which I believe they are), then you and the Judicial branch have an obligation to stop them. But, you didn’t, in fact, you sent Rahm Emanuel and David Axlerod into those backroom meetings to help broker the very deals you are now defending yourself from. So, what exactly do you mean? As Joe Wilson said, “you lie.”

These points need to rubbed in Obama’s smarmy, Marxist face from now until 2012. They are important insights into how power hungry Obama is and also amplify his apparent disgust and out right disreguard for our Constitution. Do not let them go. We need to force the left into explaining and defending this “wanna a be” dictator’s slip of the tongue.

Of course, if Obama is pressed on this, he will say, “it was a poor choice of words” or “my words were taken out of context.” But,whenever anyone tries to justify a mistake, it shows they are either an idiot or a liar. Let’s make Obama choose which one he would like to be.

Update: Thursday, Jan 28, 2010

All kidding aside, Barack Obama said things, last night, that I hope to God I never hear from another President as long as I live. I won’t get into alot of detail; since, you are going to hear about this until you are blue in the face, and I hope the message sinks in. I really do.

For Obama to chastise the Supreme Court Justices, to their faces and in front of both houses of Congress, was nothing short of childish, petty, and crude behavior. But to, then, tell them that he is going to find a way to make their decision (on the reversal of McCain Feingold) non-valid, is something we would expect out of Hugo Chavez.

But Obama wasn’t done playing dictator with just the Supreme Court. He, also, rendered the entire Congress useless by scolding them for not approving his idea of a financial commission and flatly stating their decision didn’t matter, he would just declare an executive order and do it anyway. Theoretically, his commission wouldn’t have the power a Senate committee would. But, with the direction this President is going, who knows?

Pay very close attention, all you moderates and independents; you are witnessing a man doing his level best to destroy our form of representative government. You should be seething mad and demanding this bastard’s resignation, along with all of us right wing radical conservatives (sarc).

God, please watch over our nation. We need you more now than we have in a long, long time.

Republican response

Thursday, Jan 28, 2010

The only worthwhile thing to come out of last nights festivities, was the Republican response to the State of Confusion Speech by Barack Husein Obama.

Newly elected Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell (R), gave a thoughtful response, that centered on the founding father’s understanding of equality of opportunity and not the impossibility of equality of outcome.

If you haven’t heard this yet, it is a must listen to response.

We will be adding a new contribution, in the form of political comment (cartoon style) by John Juring. Let us know what you think.

This is a prototype of a recent panel done by John, and we will be refining them as we go (both panel design and post setting.) John’s cartoons may wind up having a page of their own, just don’t know yet.

Barack Chavez

Wednesday, Feb 3, 2010

Barack Obama managed to piss off the people of Nevada again (and yes, Harry Reid just sits there drooling) by telling everyone that “You don’t blow a bunch of cash on Las Vegas…”. Well, to be fare, that was only part of what he said. The rest reads like this:

“You don’t go buying a boat when you can barely pay your mortgage,” Obama said. “You don’t blow a bunch of cash on Vegas when you’re trying to save for college. You prioritize. You make tough choices.”

Yeah, this is true. But, Obama and the Democrats are mainly responsible for the disastrous economic situation we find ourselves in at the present time and Nevada doesn’t need the President telling people to stay away. Remember, as a Senator, Obama voted “present” or with his party on every bill that started our economy toward a downward spiral. And as President, he continues to spend our nation into oblivion, with trillions of $$$ in more bailouts, more government employees and all the while living a lifestyle of the “Rich and Famous.”

But wait, there’s more. Obama is also proposing the biggest annual budget (1.5 trillion) this country has ever seen; and, puts us on a track for future budgets somewhere near $10 trillion over the next ten years. He knows we don’t have the money for this, so, who the hell does he think he is, to tell us that we need to tighten our belts in tough times? He has made bad times worse with his Utopian socialist agenda. And what was that he said about government run health care last week? “I will not quit.”

Barack Obama knows nothing about managing money. Socialists never do.

The only difference between Barack Obama and Hugo Chavez is: Chavez openly admits to forcing Venezuela into becoming a socialist state.

IRS to buy tactical shotguns

Fiday, Feb 5, 2010

A couple of days old news but, yeah, it’s still some pretty weird shit to ponder. Why does the IRS need tactical weapons? And as Tammy Bruce points out, your average tax dodge is more than likely to be white collar and not some militia survivalist type (although, the later is starting to make more and more sense.)

And as usual, if you google this information, don’t expect to see any stories on this by the MSM. Nope, just posts by a bunch of us ”right-wing nut jobs.” Gee, I wonder why that is.

The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.

Battle of Lexington Monument

Monday, Feb 8, 2010

The inscription

Sacred to Liberty & the Rights of mankind!!! The Freedom & Independence of America, Sealed and defended with the blood of her sons.

This Monument is erected by the inhabitants of Lexington, under the patronage & at the expense of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, to the memory of their fellow citizens, Ensign Robert Munroe, Mess. Jonas Parker, Samuel Masey, Caleb Harrington and John Brown of Lexington, Ishael Porter of Woburn, who fell on this field, the first victims to the sword of British tyranny & oppression, on the morning of the ever memorable nineteenth of April, An. Dom. 1775.
The Die was cast!!! The Blood of these Martyr’s, in the cause of God & their Country, was the cement of the Union of these States, then colonies & gave the spring to the spirit, firmness, and resolution of their fellow citizens. They rose as one man, to revenge their brethren’s blood and at the point of the sword to assert & defend their native Rights. They nobly dar’d to be free!! The contest was long, bloody & affecting. Righteous Heaven approved the solemn appeal; Victory crowned their arms; and The Peace, Liberty & Independence of the United States of America, was their glorious reward.

Built in the year 1799.

 

Man’s will to live free never dies. How many more monuments have to built, before the Statists understand that the desire for the right to self determination cannot be crushed? 

God only knows.

Oh, really?

Tuesday, Feb 23, 2010

I was listening to Rush this morning, when my mid-morning coffee was interrupted by a caller to the show (a black man) named Anthony, who was about as full of hate as anyone I’ve heard in long, long time. He started out by telling Rush the only way he could make his point was by asking a question. And then what followed can only be interpreted as a threat. A threat intentionally directed at white people.

Here is the main part of the transcript that Rush has posted on his web site:

CALLER:  Yeah, I want to make a comment but I’d like to ask you a question because this is a way I can get my point across.  Rush, if you put a mouse in the same box as a snake, what would you think would happen?

RUSH:  If I put a mouse in the same box as a snake…

CALLER:  What would you take out?  The snake will attack because that’s his natural instinct.  You have a lot of people calling your show.  They applaud you, they praise you, they make you feel like you’re walking on water, when actually you’re sinking in quicksand.  You do all this knocking about Barack Obama, holding Barack Obama to a double standard, when the man has been in office a year, and he’s supposed to solve all of America’s problems.  And Barack Obama — and I see America heading in the right direction.  I’m not going to agree with you.  I’m not going to go along with you just to get along, because this is who I am.  But I will say that Barack Obama is doing a great job.  It is the Republican Party that is dividing the United States of America.  And I will also say that, if all these people knocking, hating, criticizing Barack Obama, if anything happens to Barack Obama, God have mercy on the United States of America. Like Jeremiah Wright said: “God damn America,” and I’m for real with you.

Now that’s fucked up. Rush couldn’t respond to Anthony, since the cheap piece of crap hung up. And Rush couldn’t say what needs to be said to assholes like Anthony, without degrading his show. I understand that.

But I can. So the rest of this post will be directed at all the Anthonys and Anthony-etts out their:

For the last 5 decades, the majority of white Americans have been telling all the bigots and racists to go pound sand. We’ve been telling them, there’s no place for their kind in America any more. And, we didn’t ask for or expect anything other than the peaceful co-existance between our races. But we did get something more than that. We got Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton, Sheila Jackson Lee and Maxine Waters, we got ACORN and the Democrats telling us how unfair we were treating black people. And yes, we got the Rev. Wright and millions of assholes like you Anthony. Spiting on us, telling us every day, how evil we are.

And we got even more than all that Anthony. We got your kids skulking around at night, robbing and shooting us and each other. Some bargain, huh, Anthony?

The fact is: White Americans are fed up with your’s and your buddy’s, ungracious attitude towards the people who stood with you during the civil rights movement and your despicable treatment of our Nation as a whole.

There are some other facts, that all you Anthonys and Anthony-etts need to know: Gun sales have skyrocketed in the last year. In fact, they have gone up 400% in most all states since Obama took office. When asked why they purchased a firearm, most stated, “self defense.”

Another more important fact is this: Whites make up 74% of the total population in the United States. Black Americans constitute 13.5% of America and even if you combined your efforts with Hispanics (14%) you still only comprise less than 28% of the population. Not very good odds if you’re intent on picking a fight. 

My point? Go ahead and think of yourself as a bad ass old snake. Make it a King Cobra, one of the baddest snakes on the block. Cuz many a Cobra has made the fatal mistake of thinking a mongoose was a mouse.

My advice? Maybe you should stick to the King Cobra in the brown paper bag, Anthony. In the long run, it may just be healthier for you.

Those letters to the Democrats

Friday, Feb 26, 2010

Hi, all

My name is Rahm…Er, Ellie. Ellie Light. You remember me, I’m the one who wrote all those “letters to the Editor”[s] supporting my hero, President Obama. Well, I just wanted to let you know that I have been very busy writing more letters, to help out our progressive cause.

When I heard that President Obama invited those icky Republicans to join in the health care debate, I knew my services would be needed once again. And what better way to help out than by giving our Democrat Congress persons factual instances of how corrupt the insurance companies are and how unfair the current health care system is. So, I sat down, rolled up my sleeves, and started writing.

Now, I know, you may be thinking, that’s dishonest. But I say no It’s not. We all know these horrible things go on every day. In fact, I’ve heard, 30 million people die every month because they don’t have and can’t get health care insurance. We also know, these poor people are so under-educated, that, they cannot be expected to write their own letters. Someone has to stand up for them. (Please, don’t get me started on how the extreme right forces these poor young people into parenthood and out of school, by denying them their God given right to abortion).

In any event, I am so proud to have helped out our wonderful, progressive cause and serve our Dear Leader once again. You too can help. Remember, our President needs you to flood those neo-con talk radio shows with your phone calls. Call often, (like you vote) and never let on that you’re really a liberal (tell them you voted for McCain) but, tell them you support the President’s health care plan.

Well, that’s all for now. I will try to give you another update, when I have the time.

Thoughtfully,

Ellie Light

P.S. Hope you liked the letter about the lady who was forced to wear her dead sister’s false teeth. I thought that was a really nice touch (and you know that this had to have happened somewhere!) Wasn’t Louise Slaughter wonderful for reading it?

Dow goes down as Obama talks

Wednesday, Mar 3, 2010

Amazing! The Dow Jones Stock indicator has fallen over 15 points in a matter of minutes, as dumb ass Obama announces he will push for reconciliation. Yup, the same tactic he previously called a threat to our legislative procedure.

Don’t loose faith

Now is the time to start contacting your state legislators and demanding they pass laws exempting citizens from any mandatory participation in this un-Constitutional health care power grab.

Dow is now down 30.0 points since Obama started talking.

Don’t let up

Keep calling your Representatives and Senators. Keep reminding them they will be out of a job if they vote for this monstrosity. Who knows? Maybe we can get through to enough of them to get this thing stopped.

More Tea Parties 

Even with reconciliation, this process is going to take time. Now is the time to organize more Tea Parties. If the Socialists didn’t like us last summer, we need to make them hate us.

The coffee party (the lib’s answer to the Tea Party) needs to understand that they are the ones in the minority.

Dow Jones now -23.43. Down from +32.50 prior to Obama’s announcement.

Get fired up. Stay fired up!

A lot of people say it is next to impossible to rescind an entitlement, once it has been put in place. I say “Bull Shit.” Government run health care is un-Constitutional and if we replace liberals with Constitutional Conservatives in the upcoming elections and give them explicit instructions to dismantle this crap, we can do it.

The Dow is back up to -9.52. Maybe someone told those guys that it ain’t over yet.

I will update this post if anything significant happens.

Questions

Thursday, Mar 4, 2010

To my neighbor: If you think I am conspiring against this unjust government, will you report me?

To the authorities: If my neighbor points an accusing finger at me, will you arrest me?

To the Attorney General: If you think I encourage people to act against tyranny, will you charge me?

To the Jury: Will you find me guilty, because you are afraid of what will happen to you if you don’t?

To the Judge: Will you imprison me and take my family’s home to pay my fines?

To the President of the United States: If my brothers in arms stand shoulder to shoulder and fight for our God given rights, will you send your army to crush them?

Indeed, how is it that we find ourselves in a time where these questions could even be relevant? Maybe we should ask those who were fortunate enough to escape the iron fist of Communism to tell there story again. And maybe we should listen to them very closely now. Especially…now.  

Each man must abide by his own conscience. But let all men know, those who do not believe in God, have no conscience.

What the Left conveniently leaves out

Monday, Mar 8, 2010

We all know the health care debate is chock full of distortions, lies and the omission of important facts. It is one of those conveniently omitted facts that we on the Right should have addressed from the very beginning in the argument against the nationalization of 1/6th of our nation’s economy. And, it directly counters one of the biggest lies the left has been trumpeting on a daily basis about our current health care system. That lie being: “Health care insurers regularly refuse to approve medical procedures or drop the insured, when they need the insurance the most.”

Where are all the law suits? Why aren’t we seeing the Federal government taking these insurance companies to task over breaking legal and binding contracts with the public? And since the States have independent insurance regulatory commissions, why aren’t we hearing about all this fraud on a local level?

You know damned good and well, if there actually were cases of a sick people being denied their rightful benefits by insurance companies, the liberal media would be screaming to the top of their collective lungs about it. It would be the lead story in the MSM for weeks and there would be demands for heads to roll, not to mention the demand for government run health care (without even bothering to go through the legislative process).

How do the Liberals come up with their inflammatory numbers? Mary Theroux has this to say, in an article she wrote in a Blog called the the Beacon  back in Dec of 2009:

In his speech to Congress on the need to overhaul health care, President Obama asserted:

‘More and more Americans pay their premiums, only to discover that their insurance company has dropped their coverage when they get sick, or won’t pay the full cost of care. It happens every day.’

The following week, Health Care for America Now, a group supporting the Democrats’ health care reform bill, ran a television ad claiming that private health insurance companies: “Deny 1 out of 5 treatments prescribed by doctors.”

When fact-checked by PolitiFact.com, it turned out the statistic had been derived by the California Nurses Association, which broadened its definition of “denial” to include such administrative non-events as a claim having been sent to the wrong insurer. Such snafus occur behind the scenes, and the patient never knows about them because his/her claim is, in fact, subsequently paid by the correct insurer.

 

Again, the truth is left out and we end up getting facts that have been twisted to fit the Liberal Socialist’s template.

Something else that has been left out is the safeguards put in place for purchasers of health insurance policies. Since health insurance companies cannot sell their products across state lines (or are limited to very few states), individual states regulate the industry. And, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners have created a web site with information specifically designed to protect the public from any wrong doing by insurance companies. This web site, along with many, many more can be found at, none other than The Dept. of Labor web site for employee benefits.

You sure don’t see PSAs on where to go if you have problems with your insurance policy, now do you?

Another fact that is being left out of the argument is: The biggest insurer of all, Medicare, denies claims at a rate of almost 2 to1 over any other.

Again.  Where are all the law suits against health insurance companies? Why aren’t we hearing about any government action taken against these unscrupulous insurance companies?  The answer is, there isn’t any. And we should be beating the Democrats bloody with this and all the other facts they are leaving out.

We need to demand that the left answer these questions. Naturally, they won’t.  But we need to keep demanding and doing so in as loud a voice as we can.

Simply, breath-taking!

Friday, Mar 12, 2010

It just keeps getting harder and harder for me not to come on to my (humble) blog and not urge you to head down to your local Ace Hardware or HomeDepot, and buy a nice, shiny, new pitch fork and head to Washington D.C.

We are being led by complete fools, who sit up in their ivory towers, actually thinking, that in fact, we are the fools. And, one of the most idiotic fools in D.C., is none other than House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

Three days ago she said, “We have to vote for the Bill in order to find out what is in the Bill.”

Here is the YouTube: 

I didn’t think this woman could ever top the stupidity charts again, after an asinine statement like that; but, I was wrong. Today we get a complete show stopper from this completely unhinged, screeching, nutcase in the form of another valid reason why she thinks government health care should be passed.

In an interview on the Rachel Madcow Show, Nancy Pelosi showed for all why she should be removed from office and placed in an institution for the criminally insane, when she said this:

NANCY PELOSI: Think of an economy where people could be an artist or a photographer or a writer without worrying about keeping their day job in order to have health insurance or that people could start a business and be entrepreneurial and take risk, but not job loss because of a child with asthma or someone in the family is bipolar—you name it, any condition—is job locking.

 

I have never been so afraid for my country than I am at this point in my life, and am not sure, anymore, that we will be able to vote these insane, power drunk, un-Constitutional dictators, out of office.

We can only hope that, if the shit hits the fan, law enforcement and the military will stand on the side of the Americans that still believe in the Declaration of Independence and Constitution of the United States of America.

CBO-just more fraud

Thursday, Mar 18, 2010

I haven’t been posting this week, because I try not to regurgitate what others have already said. And all you have to do is go to the net or turn on the boob tube and get a brain full of what is going on with this out of control Administration and Congress. However, one thing did catch my eye that I haven’t heard anything about.

Yesterday, the Hill posted an article by Jared Allen and Molly K. Hooper, giving details on why the CBO will not be able to deliver a score on the health care bill, by today. They included some comments about the situation by Rep. Robert Andrews (D-N.J.) that are nothing short of incredible, particularly this:

“The reason it’s taking so long, in part, is that we want to be sure that we have a score that’s solid as a rock for procedural purposes and potentially litigation purposes down the road,”

 

 

Andrews might as well have said, “Hey stupid, we’re cooking the numbers and burying costs so deep, you will never defeat us. Not even in a court of law.”

Andrews’ statement, alone, should start an independent investigation into this corrupt, slimy, process of ramming government health care down our throats.

Don’t hold your breath.

Kuhner: Impeach Obama

Saturday, Mar 20, 2010

Here is a stunning article out of the Washington Times, by Jeffrey Kuhner. The one thing that Mr. Kuhner leaves out though, is the fact that freedom loving Americans may not wait for a political process to reverse this evil monstrosity of a Health Care Bill. This would be the last thing I would want to happen, but Obama and Congress would only have themselves to blame if a civil uprising were to take place.

Never the less, Kuhner has written a good article that sums up the mood that the majority of Americans are presently in. 

 

 

By Jeffrey T. Kuhner

The Democrats are assaulting the very pillars of our democracy. As the debate on Obamacare reaches the long, painful end, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is confronting a political nightmare. She may not have the 216 votes necessary to pass the Senate’s health care bill in the House.

Hence, Mrs. Pelosi and her congressional Democratic allies are seriously considering using a procedural ruse to circumvent the traditional constitutional process. Led by Rep. Louise M. Slaughter, New York Democrat and chairman of the House Rules Committee, the new plan – called the “Slaughter Solution” – is not to pass the Senate version on an up-or-down vote. Rather, it is to have the House “deem” that the legislation was passed and then have members vote directly on a series of “sidecar” amendments to fix the things it does not like.

This would enable House Democrats to avoid going on the record voting for provisions in the Senate bill – the “Cornhusker Kickback,” the “Louisiana Purchase,” the tax on high-cost so-called “Cadillac” insurance plans – that are reviled by the public or labor-union bosses. If the reconciliation fixes pass, the House can send the Senate bill to President Obama for his signature without ever having had a formal up-or-down vote on the underlying legislation.

Many Democrats could claim they opposed the Senate bill while allowing it to pass. This would be an unprecedented violation of our democratic norms and procedures, established since the inception of the republic. Article 1, Section 7 of the Constitution stipulates that for any bill to become a law, it must pass both the House of Representatives and the Senate. That is, not be “deemed” to have passed, but actually be voted on with the support of the required majority. The bill must contain the exact same language in both chambers – and in the version signed by the president – to be a legitimate law. This is why the House and Senate have a conference committee to iron out differences of competing versions. This is Civics 101.

The Slaughter Solution is a dagger aimed at the heart of our system of checks and balances. It would enable the Democrats to establish an ominous precedent: The lawmaking process can be rigged to ensure the passage of any legislation without democratic accountability or even a congressional majority. It is the road to a soft tyranny. James Madison must be turning in his grave.

Mr. Obama is imposing a leftist revolution. Since coming to office, he has behaved without any constitutional restraints. The power of the federal government has exploded. He has defacto nationalized key sectors of American life – the big banks, financial institutions, the automakers, large tracts of energy-rich land from Montana to New Mexico. His cap-and-trade proposal, along with a newly empowered Environmental Protection Agency, seeks to impose massive new taxes and regulations upon industry. It is a form of green socialism: Much of the economy would fall under a command-and-control bureaucratic corporatist state. Mr. Obama even wants the government to take over student loans.

Yet his primary goal has always been to gobble up the health care system. The most troubling aspect of the Obamacare debate, however, is not the measure’s sweeping and radical aims – the transformation of one-sixth of the U.S. economy, crippling tax increases, higher premiums, state-sanctioned rationing, longer waiting lines, the erosion of the quality of medical care and the creation of a huge, permanent administrative bureaucracy. Rather, the most alarming aspect is the lengths to which the Democrats are willing to go to achieve their progressive, anti-capitalist agenda.

Obamacare is opposed by nearly two-thirds of the public, more than 60 percent of independents and almost all Republicans and conservatives. It has badly fractured the country, dangerously polarizing it along ideological and racial lines. Even a majority of Democrats in the House are deeply reluctant to support it.

Numerous states – from Idaho to Virginia to Texas – have said they will sue the federal government should Obamacare become law. They will declare themselves exempt from its provisions, tying up the legislation in the courts for years to come.

Mr. Obama is willing to devour his presidency, his party’s congressional majority and – most disturbing – our democratic institutional safeguards to enact it. He is a reckless ideologue who is willing to sacrifice the country’s stability in pursuit of a socialist utopia.

The Slaughter Solution is a poisoned chalice. By drinking from it, the Democrats would not only commit political suicide. They would guarantee that any bill signed by Mr. Obama is illegitimate, illegal and blatantly unconstitutional. It would be worse than a strategic blunder; it would be a crime – a moral crime against the American people and a direct abrogation of the Constitution and our very democracy.

It would open Mr. Obama, as well as key congressional leaders such as Mrs. Pelosi, to impeachment. The Slaughter Solution would replace the rule of law with arbitrary one-party rule. It violates the entire basis of our constitutional government – meeting the threshold of “high crimes and misdemeanors.” If it’s enacted, Republicans should campaign for the November elections not only on repealing Obamacare, but on removing Mr. Obama and his gang of leftist thugs from office.

It is time Americans drew a line in the sand. Mr. Obama crosses it at his peril.

Health care needed to be fixed and we had to start somewhere.”

A letter to Obama

Wednesday, April 7, 2010

Subject: A LETTER FROM A PROCTER AND GAMBLE EXECUTIVE TO THE  PRESIDENT

THE LAST  SENTENCE IS THE MOST CHILLING

Lou Pritchett is one of corporate America ’s true living legends–an
acclaimed author, dynamic teacher and one of the world’s highest
rated  speakers. Successful corporate executives everywhere recognize
him as the foremost leader in change management.. Lou changed the way
America does business by creating an  audacious concept that came to
be known as “partnering.” Pritchett rose from soap salesman to
Vice-President, Sales and Customer  Development for Procter and
Gamble and over the course of 36 years, made corporate history.

AN OPEN LETTER TO
PRESIDENT OBAMA

Dear President Obama:

You are the thirteenth President under whom I have lived and unlike
any of the others, you truly scare me.

You scare me because after months of exposure, I know nothing about
you.

You scare me because I do  not know how you paid for your expensive
Ivy League education and your upscale lifestyle and housing with no
visible signs of support.

You scare me because you did not spend the formative years of youth
growing up in America and culturally you are not an American.

You scare me because you have never run a company or met a payroll.

You scare me because you have never had military experience, thus
don’t understand it at its  core.

You scare me because you lack  humility and ‘class’, always blaming
others.

You scare me because for over half your life you have aligned
yourself with radical extremists who  hate America and you refuse to
publicly denounce these radicals who wish to see America fail..

You scare me because you are a cheerleader for the ‘blame America ‘
crowd and deliver this message abroad.

You  scare me because you want to change America to a European style
country where the government sector dominates instead of the
private sector.

You scare me because you want to replace our health care system
with a government controlled one.

You scare me because you prefer ‘wind mills’ to responsibly
capitalizing on our own vast oil,  coal and shale reserves.

You scare me because you want to kill the American capitalist goose
that lays the golden egg which provides the highest standard of
living in the world.

You scare me because you have begun to use ‘extortion’ tactics
against certain banks and corporations.

You scare me because your own political party shrinks from
challenging you on your wild and irresponsible spending proposals.

You scare me because you will not openly listen to or even consider
opposing points of view from  intelligent people.

You scare me because you falsely believe that you are both
omnipotent and omniscient.

You scare me because the media gives you a free pass on everything
you do.

You scare me because you demonize and want to silence the
Limbaugh’s, Hannitys, O’Reillys and Becks who offer opposing,
conservative points of view.

You scare me because you prefer controlling over governing.

Finally, you scare me because if you serve a second term I will
probably not feel safe in writing a similar letter in 8 years.

Lou Pritchett

This letter was sent to the NY Times and of course, it was ignored. It is now making its way around the Internet and I am more than happy to help give it as much exposure as possible.

Maybe we should all send simular letters to the Whitehouse, flood their mail room and show this pathetic excuse of a President just exactly what America thinks of him.

Has Obama’s plans backfired?

Riot police dealing with violent Tea Partiers.

 A peaceful Leftist protest in Arizona.

Thursday, April 19, 2010

It’s pretty hard to make the case that the “extreme” right wing Tea Partiers are a serious threat to our country, when you and your own supporters are providing such a distinctly different display of public behavior. And all offered up to the lens of the camera, to be shown to the entire world. What the pro-illegal immigration crowd did in Phoenix this week, only damaged their cause and Obama’s agenda. But to what extent?

I and many others believe, The Dictator Obama and his politburo have designed plans to eliminate the Constitutional freedoms that we Americans have enjoyed for over 230 years. But, the order in which the government has taken over private institutions, placed new and job killing regulations on businesses and forced un-Constitutional mandates upon private citizens, is no coincidence. Yes, they came as fast as the German “Blitzkrieg” but they came in an order that makes sense.

It appeared to me, granting 12 to 20 million illegal aliens amnesty and securing the next election would fall right in line. But The Little Dictator Obama’s well ordered plans were disrupted when the pro-illegal immigration people let their protest turn into a riot. With more protests planned this week-end, in 80 cities, this could turn out to be a disaster for ol’ purple lips.

If the coming protests turn into anything like we seen this week, The Little Dictator stands to lose a lot of ground. I’m not talking about votes. What Obama stands to lose is very crucial to a complete Socialist take-over. Gun control.

It seems to me, gun control is very near to being the next major change implemented by the Obama regime and I’ve been thinking all along, that ginning up the “Amnesty” crowd was intended to provoke violence from all of you “Bitter, gun totting, Bible clinging, right wing hicks.” The perfect reason for the government to step in and disarm the American people.

It’s always great to watch the Left unravel, but, do not go thinking now that the left has tripped over its own feet (again), that our gun rights are finally safe. They’re not. The Left never stops trying to eliminate the Constitution. They hate it, it is their most reviled enemy.

And after the Constitution… it’s you.

Obama’s response to oil rig disaster…an Epic Fail!

Friday, April 30, 2010

I shot off an e-mail to BP’s Gulf Oil Spill Disaster web site this morning since the only hard information coming from the White house and the press is a jumble of crap. I haven’t received a response yet and depending on what kind of lid the government has put on this situation, may not.

You can watch the cnn video of  how an inexperienced idiot of a president deals with this disaster, eight days after the fact here.

This poor excuse for a leader is sending Dept. of Treasury SWAT teams, Attys. from the DOJ, the head of NOAH and some idiot head of Climate Change? But not U.S. Navy deep sea divers to help cap the freakin’ well!

Obama’s response to a real national emergency… an Epic Fail!

Correction:

After a little research, the depth of the well head would rule out deep sea diver operations. However, a submersible, manned or unmanned, could be and should have been put into play as soon as possible. Especially when the amount of oil flowing from the well was determined shortly after the explosion.

Obama: In Over His Head in Politics and Now Waist Deep in Oil

Sunday, May 2, 2010

It didn’t take the little dictator (Obama) long to start blaming former President Bush for everything from hangnails to the weather. In fact, shortly after his inauguration, team Obama launched a web site that broke protocol by immediately attacking his predecessor on a number of issues. One of those issues at the top of Obama’s list was the supposed slow reaction the President had to the Katrina disaster. But let me put Bush’s response to Katrina into perspective, before the liberal whining gets too high on the whine meter.

It has always been the policy of the federal government to NOT intercede in matters that do not effect the security of the nation as a whole. This includes natural disasters and was Washington’s policy over the decades, for two main reasons. First, this policy was protocol out of respect for States Rights (or the 10th amendment.) Second, it is federal law, that the Governor of an ill affected state must declare a state of emergency and contact the federal government in order to get federal funds and disaster relief.

Here is what happened: President Bush did have to urge then Governor Kathleen Blanco to sign papers declaring a state of emergency. He again requested that the Governor sign the papers the day before the storm hit and shortly before midnight, Blanco signed the state of emergency papers, to allow the federal government to take control of the situation. Yes, FEMA dropped the ball and seemed not to be prepared to mobilize immediately. But Blanco and Mayor (of New Orleans) Ray Nagin sat on their hands and did little to help themselves. Remember the pictures of over a hundred school buses sitting untouched in 3 feet of water?

It did take Bush 2 days to get a fire lit under FEMA’s ass, that we know. But here is what Obama said in his web site after he was elected, as reported by Andy Barr in Politico:

Under the “agenda” portion of the site regarding Katrina, it reads: “President Obama will keep the broken promises made by President Bush to rebuild New Orleans and the Gulf Coast. He and Vice President Biden will take steps to ensure that the federal government will never again allow such catastrophic failures in emergency planning and response to occur.”

“President Obama swiftly responded to Hurricane Katrina,” the statement on the site continues. “Citing the Bush Administration’s ‘unconscionable ineptitude’ in responding to Hurricane Katrina, then Senator Obama introduced legislation requiring disaster planners to take into account the specific needs of low-income hurricane victims.”

Now, we are faced with a situation that may end up coating the coastline of at least 4 states with oil from an off shore oil rig explosion (of a still undermined reason) off of the coast of Louisiana. And it took Obama eight days to respond… eight days! Why? Because he was too obsessed with bashing Arizona for passing legislation to do the job that IS the responsibility of the federal government.

If Obama thinks he’s catching Hell for sitting on his ass and doing nothing about the Gulf oil rig disaster for eight days, just wait and see what happens if this oil slick reaches Cuba.

Ah, but never fear. The little dictator will blame this all on the Bush Administration for not regulating off shore drilling enough. You can bet on that.

Two congressmen: Gulf of Mexico oil spill large but ‘not Armageddon’

By John Kelly

May 01, 2010, 7:47PM

Rep. Gene Taylor, D-Miss.

Two congressmen who flew over the Gulf of Mexico oil spill say people who live along coastlines should be concerned but not fearful.

Democratic Rep. Gene Taylor of Mississippi and Republican Rep. Jo Bonner of Alabama spent more than three hours Saturday on a Coast Guard flight over the spill. They represent coastal districts.

After landing in Gulfport, Taylor said the oil spill is large but it’s “not Armageddon.” He said he saw no oil slicks within about 20 miles of Mississippi marshes.

Taylor said most of the spill appears to be a thin sheen on the water, but concentrations of oil in some places look like chocolate milk.

“Anyone who lives on the Gulf Coast from Florida to Texas should be concerned,” Bonner said.

I guess when the Democrats are in charge, catastrophes are not as bad as when Republicans are in charge.

Don’t ask me. I can’t figure it out either. I mean, I know why they say crap like this, but I can’t understand how they expect people to swallow it.

Ah Hell… pretzel logic. Next!

Immature Spoiled Brats

Thursday, May 6, 2010

The spoiled little brats who are rioting in Greece are evidently too stupid to understand that there is no more money left in the government treasury, to continue to provide their responsibility free life style.

As posted on Michell Malkin\’s site, Tom over at Radio Free N J sums it up pretty damned good.

Morons,

There is no money. There is no one else’s pocket left to pick. You can’t borrow anymore, you can’t print anymore, and you can’t steal anymore from anyone else. The people who will be paying the bill to keep you from reentering the 15th century are, unlike you, working very hard. They deserve better than you spoiled pampered children are giving them.

…Socialism always was (and frankly – still is) a horrible idea. It’s the reason you’re in this embarrassing position in the first place. In the eyes of the world you all look just as stupid and spoiled as can be. You could be protesting in diapers and demanding that ‘the state’ wipe your behinds and it would only marginally affect your public image. You need to accept the fact that there are no circumstances under which politics can arrange for nothing to be equal to something. You can not make a contribution of zero and expect to get a benefit greater than that.

You’ve thrown your bottles, burned your flags, waved your signs and had your fun. Now it’s time for you to learn the lessons of history and abandon this idiocy before we finally lose our patience with you. Grow up – and get back to work.

 

The truth is, we are broke too. And we haven’t even started to pay for the idiotic, socialist, health care system Congress shoved down our throats. How long do you think it will take the welfare junkies to start rioting, here at home, when they are told that the cow has gone dry?

Now we are told that China’s economy is on the verge of crashing. Damn, it’s going to be a long hot summer.

Back up and running!

Thursday, May 27, 2010

Wow! I’m finally back and running. But what a hassle. I lost my  operating system and that would have been OK, but evidently I had a hardware problem going on for quite some time. The result, some of the files on my back-up discs were corrupted and useless. even this wouldn’t have been such a major deal, but I have spent days on the phone with Dell trying to straighten out my machine. Screw Dell. What a bunch of freakin’ idiots.

Anyway, I am now operating with Windows 7 and so far it is a much better system than Vista. I’m sure all you who have Vista will agree that it is pretty much crap. XP was a much better OS.

I still have some things to do to get the rest of my files replaced, but I will leave you with this thought:

All is not lost. We now have the moderates and a growing number of Democrats on our side. Obama is now reduced to having only 30% of the voting public that are hard core supporters; Congress, even less. Their time is short and they know it.

We can turn things around,  but everyone must get out and vote. Don’t take anything for granted and if you know someone who is still on the fence, talk to them. Explain what they have to lose if these jerks remain in power.

I will be back, either later today or tomorrow. I’ve got so much to vent!

God, country, family.

Who stabbed who in the heart?

Thursday, June 3,2010

Three years after the passing of Johnny Hart, the current creators of B.C. have stabbed its American readers in the heart. Evidently the new creators of this once great strip think that if they just ignore the vast majority of people that do not want socialism, we will just go away and they can push their agenda through without any fuss or muss.

So many of these so called artists, who center their lives around fiction and fantasy, are so detached from reality that they are incapable of understanding why socialism has failed every time it has been tried. 

I would really like someone to point out how Capitalism is so bad, when no one is forcing anyone to buy a damned thing, if they choose not to. But, golly gee, Obama’s socialist health care plan does exactly that. Buy a certain product or face fines and/or jail time.

Socialism instantly starts to erode the most basic human right: The right to self determination. 

What a bunch of fucking idiots.

Who was Rachel Corrie?

Friday, June 4, 2010

As most news savvy folks know, the International Solidarity Movement (ISM) is attempting to run the Gaza blockade, for the second time. And most, by now, are aware that this ship is named after an American woman by the name of Rachel Corrie, who was killed while protesting  in the Gaza strip in 2003. But who was Rachel Corrie? And how did she die?

In order to understand those 2 questions, we first need to understand who and what the ISM is. To be blunt, the ISM is a pro-terrorist, pro-Palestinian, Jew hating group that recruits young idealistic people to use as human shields or pawns to make their organization look more international and main stream. In fact, part of ISM’s mission statement claims that “armed struggle” is a “Palestinian right.” 

 According to the “media co-ordinator” of the ISM, Flo Rosovski, “‘Israel’ is an illegal entity that should not exist”

 

It would be fairly tolerable if the ISM was limited to wearing their Che t-shirts, waving signs and generally being a pain in the ass, but their involvement with terror groups goes much deeper than they would like anyone to know about.

From the Web site Rachel Corrie Facts:

 

 

• Two British suicide bombers met with ISM members before blowing up a popular bar in Tel Aviv near the U.S. embassy in April 2003. The ISM claimed that the only contact it had with the suicide bombers “was a brief social encounter” at an ISM apartment in Rafah. However, five days before the Tel Aviv bombing, the bombers attended a memorial service in Rafah for ISM volunteer Rachel Corrie, an American college student crushed to death in 2003 while trying to block demolition of a Palestinian home in Gaza by an Israeli army bulldozer (the Israeli Army’s investigation of the Corrie death concluded that the soldiers operating the bulldozer had no intention of harming her).

 

 

• In March 2003, Israeli troops raided the ISM’s West Bank offices in Jenin and captured a suspected member of the terrorist organization Islamic Jihad. The Israeli army identified Shadi Suqiyeh, who was hiding in the ISM office, as a senior member of Islamic Jihad who had planned a number of foiled attacks on Israelis. A statement released by the ISM soon after the incident explained that Suqiyeh was brought into the apartment by an ISM volunteer “concerned about his welfare” because “under Israeli military curfew, Palestinians spotted in the streets are shot on sight.”

 

• More ties to hard-line Palestinian groups were revealed three months later, when ISM issued a press release inviting activists to “join the ISM, the Palestinian National and Islamic Forces and the Apartheid Wall Defense Committee…to block construction of the apartheid wall” during the Freedom Summer 2003 campaign. The Palestinian National and Islamic Forces is a group made up of members of Hamas, Islamic Jihad and the hard-edged wing of Arafat’s Fatah organization.

The ISM is clearly a group of radicals that follow Karl Marx’s theory, The Ends Justify the Means.

Rachel Corrie burning mock U.S. flag in Gaza.

So, who was Rachel Corrie? And how did she die? Rachel Corrie was tool. She was a typical smug liberal malcontent that was recruited into the ISM and went to the Gaza Strip in an attempt to stop the Isreali Defense Force (IDF) from demolishing weapons smuggling tunnels and homes of known terrorist leaders. She was killed when she slipped in front of an IDF bulldozer that was clearing brush to expose the entrance of one the targeted tunnels. In short, Rachel Corrie was a tool and an idiot. What she was defending was the Palestinian’s access to more weapons and explosives to kill more Isreali civilians.

Naturally, the ISM made her a martyr and as expected, the MSM made an ass out of themselves by posting erroneous photos of her death of which CNN was forced to retract and    appologize for. There was even a play made about her death co-sponsored by the UK government Arts Council, based on Rachel’s  diary and emails from her time in the Gaza Strip. (Google “My Name is Rachel Corrie” if you are interested.) But at least one British critic got it right.

Clive Davis, wrote this from London:

“An element of unvarnished propaganda comes to the fore. With no attempt made to set the violence in context, we are left with the impression of unarmed civilians (blameless Palestinians) being crushed by faceless militants (brutal Israelis). As Corrie jots down thoughts in her notebook and fires off e-mails to her parents, she declares that ‘the vast majority of Palestinians right now, as far I can tell, are engaged in Gandhian non-violent resistance.’ Even the late Yassir Arafat might have blushed at that one.”

Former Sunday Telegraph Jerusalem correspondent, Tom Gross, has compiled a list of other Rachels that lost their lives during that same time period as Rachel Corrie.

DEAD JEWS AREN’T NEWS

RACHEL Thaler, aged 16, was blown up at a pizzeria in an Israeli shopping mall. She died after an 11-day struggle for life following a suicide bomb attack on a crowd of teenagers on 16 February 2002.

So, yes. The ISM has appropriately name their blockade running ship, ”The Rachel Corrie.”

A ship of fools, named after a foolish tool.

When Dumb Asses Want to Kick Ass

Tuesday, June 8, 2010

When a dumb ass gets it in his mind to go find some one’s ass to kick, they more than likely choose an individual who is completely unsuspecting or someone who is deeply distracted by personal or public issues. That is just what ass hole bullies do. They do this because they are incapable of accomplishing what others do. They cannot understand what it takes to create or maintain anything of value; so, in order to feel any sense of accomplishment they destroy. 

Obama is just this type of ass hole. He cannot understand the value in preserving the freedoms our forefathers won for us, so he sets about to destroy them. He is incapable of seeing any great value in maintaining solid relationships with our friends and allies, so he ignores them or flat out turns on them in their time of need. He does not comprehend the need for a strong military nor does he see the patriotism of our young men and women in uniform as a national treasure. He views the military as a necessary distraction.

So, now that the roar of dissatisfaction over his inaction with the Gulf oil spill has reached a crescendo, President Obama decides he needs to show the public that he is engaged with this problem. He wants to know who’s ass he can kick. He cannot think outside of the box. This is why he has never thought to recruit the best and brightest engineers from all of the other oil companies, to help find a solution. The idea to send the Army Corp of Engineers, out to team up with the oil people, has never crossed his mind. To make sure the EPA has initiated the federally mandated process of protecting and/or clean-up of our effected coastal areas, has never been publicly discussed by anyone in this Administration. And Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal’s requests for federal aid went unanswered for weeks; and to date, has only been approved for 2% of the protective actions he asked this President to allow his people to do. The only thing Barrack Obama did do, was to send Eric Holder and a team of lawyers out to the Horizon oil rig to see who should be sued.

Barrack Obama is a bully, he is destructive and he is an ass hole. And he is arguably the greatest security risk this nations has faced since the Cold War. Even members of his own party are starting to shy away form Obama; but, I wouldn’t put money down on whether the Democrats will go for impeachment.

I can only hope to wake up, some morning, to news videos of the military marching Barrack Obama out of the White House at 3:00 A.M., and taking him straight to Ft. Leavenworth, Ks.

Another idiot lefty cartoonist

Monday, June, 14, 2010

The left never ceases to amaze. They can’t win an argument by using facts, so they invent pathetic situations and present them as if they probably are facts.

Here’s an idea Mell Lazarus might use as a follow up to this particular strip: This is Rosa’s son. He belongs to MS13 and pushes drugs on our children. If you object, he will get his fellow gang members together and they will shoot your dog and burn your house down. Maybe even rape Mom and little Siss as an after thought. But, if we’re lucky, he will go free and YOU will go to prison.

What a crock of shit!

BLAH, BLAH, BLAH

Tuesday, June 15, 2010

And now this ASS HOLE is telling us how much he is in charge.

This speech is already soooo ripe with issues the Republicans can pick it to shreds.

And, oh yes, we need more government regulations.

Blah, Blah, Blah. Lie, lie, lie. This is an insult to our intelligence, America.

For 57 days, this jerk sat on his ass doing nothing and now he wants us to believe he has been in charge all the way. What a crock. Everything he is saying is a hint of more taxes. Don’t be fooled.

That’s right, Obama, we have the drive to shape our own destinies, and you are not part of it.

My God. What a fony bastard. He’s actually making my computer stink!

Ah, relief. He finally shut his idiotic pie hole.

Well, there you go, folks. “I’m Obama. I’ve been in control since the start of this oil spill.” “BP is going to pay through the nose even though we still don’t know what caused this disaster, and by the way, government is going to have to raise taxes,even more, cause we need to regulate, regulate, regulate. But it’s all for your own good.

We have to drill out there because we are running out of places to drill on land? WTF? This idiot really does think we are a nation of morons.

Well, at least he used God and not Allah, in his speech.

Pretty much the whole wheel barrow full of shit, folks. Another disgusting display of arrogance and stupidity.

Just the facts, Ma’am

Wednesday, June 16, 2010

I have to run to the big city to pick up a part for my scooter, so I’ll just leave ya’all with a little something to ponder.

The average offshore oil rig has upwards to 160 employees on station at any given time, and there are 30 rigs that are being shut down by the idiot boy [p]resedent and his drooling, moronic czars. There are also 3 other rigs being considered for shut down and this works out to about 1500 immediate job losses, for the Gulf coast area.

The estimated total number of jobs lost, (on and offshore) as a result of [o]bama’s moratorium on off shore drilling (in the Gulf area alone) could be anywhere from 75,000 to 110,000. And the little dip shit is threatening to pull the plug on all of our offshore rigs, until we find out what caused the explosion on the Deep Water Horizon. The consequences of shutting down all of our Gulf oil rigs are going to bad enough, considering the fact that we get 25% of our domestic oil from this region. Can you say $8 a gallon gasoline? But if [o]bama does shut down all of our offshore operations, we are going to be in deep shit, my friends. Especially if you live in the north east and rely on heating oil.

Let’s see. Tar is a form of unrefined oil, and just to make things even, we could add some (organic?) feathers. Couldn’t we?

An open letter to Obama

Wednesday, June, 23, 2010

An open letter from actor Jon Voight to President Obama:

June 22, 2010

President Obama:

You will be the first American president that lied to the Jewish people, and the American people as well, when you said that you would defend Israel, the only Democratic state in the Middle East, against all their enemies. You have done just the opposite. You have propagandized Israel, until they look like they are everyone’s enemy — and it has resonated throughout the world. You are putting Israel in harm’s way, and you have promoted anti-Semitism throughout the world. 

You have brought this to a people who have given the world the Ten Commandments and most laws we live by today. The Jewish people have given the world our greatest scientists and philosophers, and the cures for many diseases, and now you play a very dangerous game so you can look like a true martyr to what you see and say are the underdogs. But the underdogs you defend are murderers and criminals who want Israel eradicated.

You have brought to Arizona a civil war, once again defending the criminals and illegals, creating a meltdown for good, loyal, law-abiding citizens. Your destruction of this country may never be remedied, and we may never recover. I pray to God you stop, and I hope the people in this great country realize your agenda is not for the betterment of mankind, but for the betterment of your politics.

With heartfelt and deep concern for America and Israel,

 Jon Voight www.washingtontimes.com/news/2010/jun/22/dear-mr-president-jon-voight/

And the liberal whinning started before the ink was even dry!

I truely believe Walter Williams was 100% right when he suggested that the differences between liberals and conservatives are too great to be reconciled and we need to think about peaceably going our own ways.

Pete Stark: Representing…exactly, who?

Tuesday, June 29, 2010

WTF? Does this asshole have information about how his party is going to suspend voting? Or is his pole numbers so high, he thinks he will never be voted out?

This piece of shit should be (at the minimum) censured, if not booted from office. Or maybe he should be forced to live in the Buenos Aires National Wildlife Refuge, on the Arizona Mexico border, and see for himself how well our borders are being protected. This shouldn’t be a problem (politically) since this joke of a man doesn’t even live in California, let alone in the district he is supposed to represent.

Come on, California. Even you guys have got to have a limit to what you’ll tolerate from your politicians. Or do you?

New Black Panther leader wants to kill white babies.

Slapping my forehead and kicking myself in the butt

Thursday, July 8, 2010

So, I was sitting at my desk, this morning, drinking my morning coffee and reading the news when the phone rang. Not so unusual, but the call was. So unusual that I was caught completely off guard and blew a perfect opportunity to gain some really good first hand information. Information from the pro-amnesty crowd.

The number on the caller ID was a California number and not one that belongs to any of the few friends of mine, who live in that state, and my instant reaction was… phone solicitor. You see, phone solicitors really irritate me; since, I am on the “do not pester and piss me off-no call list.” And when I answered the phone, I already had a “you are invading my space” attitude. So tragic.

I did get a solicitor of a sorts but one that I was absolutely not expecting. The caller was a young lady with slight south of the border accent who informed me that her message was for my whole family. She stated that she was wanting to contact and organize people in Idaho, (yes I live in Idaho) who were for immigration reform. Wow! Take one pot of “how dare you try to sell me something over my phone” and add liberal amounts of illegal amnesty and zing, I’m off the races.

Before I could stop myself, I was telling little lady La Raza that my Mother, Uncle and Grandmother all immigrated to the States from Mexico, (ah, another revelation) legally. And, “…just how do you think I feel about ‘immigration reform’?” Click… bitch! And then it hits me, just exactly what kind of opportunity I had just wasted.

If I had just played along, I might have gleaned some really good information right from the enemy camp. Maybe even worked myself into a position of spying on them from the inside. Ow. My forehead still hurts. And it’s red too.

Do you think they plan these calls in the morning on purpose? Naw…they wouldn’t, would they?

Lindsay’s F…U nail

Thursday, July, 8, 2010

While everyone is all a twitter and twittering about Lindsay Lohan’s fingernail and what it means by her displaying it in court, there is something more troubling than whether she intentionally disrespected the court or not.

In her rambling, disjointed statement defending why she missed her rehab classes, Lohan stated she had been working with children. Children? Who, in their right mind would want this out of control sleazebag mentoring their child?

Oh yeah… other out of control sleazebags who see nothing wrong with Lohan’s behavior.

Maybe the court should consider banning Lindsay Lohan from having contact with children. I’m just sayin’…

If it walks like a racist duck…

Friday, July 9, 2010

The Drudge Report has posted an article by East Bay News, stating that Attourny General Eric (AKA Sad Sack) Holder is considering an investigation into the fatal shooting case of a black man, by a white Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) policeman, Johannes Mehserle.

As you are probably aware, Mehserle was convicted of involuntary manslaughter by a jury in Los Angeles, Ca. yesterday, which sparked rioting and looting in Oakland, Ca. However, you may not be aware of a couple of important facts, concerning the reason behind this sad situation.

Mehserle and other BART officers were in the process of breaking up a brawl, when the shooting took place. Not exactly a routine family counseling. But, what is more important to understand, is that it has become great sport for (primarily) Black and Latino young men to ride the transit buses and trains to find and beat single white passengers. How do I know this? I read the news, damn it. And I do something else. I listen to to police scanners from cities everywhere in the country on a site called radioreference.com. If you do this, you will get a “fly on the wall” perspective of what’s really going on all across our nation too, and it ain’t pretty. Oakland ranks up near the top with Philadelphia, in this activity.

I am not saying I know what happened with this shooting. I wasn’t there. But what I am telling you is this: There is more to this than the media and the Oakland police are willing to tell.

Consider this. Mehserle was tried in Los Angeles. The same Los Angeles that rendered a ”not guilty” verdict for O. J. Simpson, in a slam dunk murder case, because “it was time to pay back for all the black men who have been convicted just because they were black.” Somethings missing here.

But, none the less, Holder dismisses an uncontested case of voter intimidation against The New Black Panther members, caught on video tape; but, is going to investigate the Mehserle case for civil rights violations. And he’s not racist?

Meanwhile, the good folks in Oakland start rioting, stealing and destroying other people’s property because they think Mehserle got off too easy.    

Silly me. Here I thought Obama was going to bring us all together to hold hands and sing Kum Bah Ya.

Keep repeating those lies, over and over and…

Tuesday, July 27, 2010

Joseph Goebbels, Adolf Hitler’s propaganda chief, is probably best remembered for his statement that a big lie told repeatedly and long enough would eventually be believed. But this by itself is nothing new and is something that has been practiced on every middle school playground and high school campus for years and, more than likely, will be for years to come. Fortunately for students, parents and teachers can step in and put a stop to the really vicious and damaging lies that are being spread. As adults… we have to fight these kinds of attacks ourselves.

Here is Goebbels entire statement:

If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.

Joseph Goebbels

What do good people do when their own government decides to hide the truth and spread propaganda? Well, we do everything in our power to counter the lies with truth. And in our case, this is no easy task considering that the Progressive Democrat Party has the Main Stream Media and Hollywood at their beck and call. Plus, they seem to have the majority of writers, artists, educators and even cartoonists, that are willing to promote every distorted story and outright lie that comes out of Washington.

I’ve heard many Conservatives ask what these Socialist water carriers expect in return for their devotion, if Obama and this Progressive bunch of fools manage to destroy what’s left of our Constitutionally guaranteed freedoms. Do they think that all of them will be given cushy government bureaucratic jobs? I don’t think so. You see, tyrants, whether they are dictators, Socialists or Communists, will promise the moon to get people to go along with their plans and then afterwards… Well, maybe Goebbels can help us out again and give us a clue as to how power hungry leaders really see these people.

Think of the press as a great keyboard on which the government can play.

Joseph Goebbels

 

Am I comparing Obama and his Administration to Hitler and Goebbels, et al? I don’t have to. Things are just what they are, no more, no less. I’m just pointing out that corrupt and greedy people will play to the greed of corrupt people. They use them and when they are done using them they throw them away, like the worn out tools they are.

As to what Conservatives can do to fight the greed, corruption and lies. We spread the truth. One person at a time, if need be.

The truth is the most indestructible thing in the Universe. A massive rock can completely obliterate our planet; but, the truth that we existed and all the truths that were, will still be the truth.

Judge puts injunction on Az imagration law (SB 1070)

Wednesday, July 28, 2010

U.S. District Judge or should I say, “liberal” Judge, Susan Bolton has issued an injunction on Arizona State law SB1070 essentially gutting it until a full trial can be held to determine if the law is Constitutional. But what Bolton has really said, is that the SEIU, La Raza and all the other pro-amnesty groups should have their day in court to try and shoot down a law that mirrors federal statute. OK, if this Judge wants to say that States may not have the authority to back one federal law, then she sets precedence that States do not have the authority to back all federal laws and the States should act accordingly.

Bank robbery, counterfeiting, kidnapping and crossing a state line, racketeering and murder for hire plus many other crimes are federal offenses. So here’s what the States might want to consider when confronted with the opportunity to apprehend someone who has a federal warrant out on them: Don’t take them into custody. Don’t even alert the feds. Instead, escort them to the eastern border of the state involved at which point the state receiving the suspect does exactly the same thing. Herd these criminals all the way to Washington D.C. and let them deal with them. Overrun the nation’s Capitol with every type of murderous, thieving, cheating bastard that breaths air in this country. I mean, what difference would that make? Washington D.C. is filled with nothing but lawless pieces of excrement anyway, especially the one that lives in the White house.

I’m telling you, this Judge did not issue this rulling based on the merit of law. Instead, she did this as one more poke in the eye of the American people. I trully believe that this rogue government would like nothing better than to provoke us to the point of civil unrest, which would give them the reason to enact Martial Law and suspend voting before the Oct 2nd Congressional elections take place. You don’t think this is possible? Then you had better open your eyes to what has happened since Obama has been elected.

Not many can be so stupid as to not believe that: Congress passing un-Constitutioanl bills against the will of the people (bills they don’t even bother to read), the government take over of the auto industry, banking industry, student loan industry, health care industry, Obama’s refusal to act on the gulf oil spill, the government’s attack on the 1st and 2nd amendments, the usurpation of State’s rights, the withholding of water to California farmers, the oil drilling embargo (followed by Obama telling a Judge that he will stop drilling despite his ruling), the destruction of our economy and I could go on and on. But, you have to be a complete idiot not to be able to connect the dots back to this Judge’s ruling on Az. SB1070.

This Administration wants us to get violent. So, instead, let’s give them what they’re asking for. Don’t arrest federal fugatives. Put them on a plane to our nation’s capitol and let the smart people deal with them.

A State tax increase to pay for criminals to be relocated to Washington D.C.? Hell ya, I’d gladly pay that.

And while we’re at it, couldn’t we send them all the illegal aliens we encounter too?

The saddest news you will probably hear

Thursday, July 29, 2010

In the midst of a government caused financial collapse that is throwing, who knows how many out of work and out of their homes, a government that is refusing to protect our borders and is actively suing a state to prevent them from protecting themselves, young men and women dying in Afghanistan while their Commander in Chief is too busy vacationing to effectively command but not too busy to encourage States to file waivers that would allow them to ignore our service men and women’s votes and (again) I could go on and on… Time Magazine’s Time NewsFeed runs an article about a giant panda that was accidentally gassed, in China. 

OK, a panda being accidentally gassed is news worthy (I mean, who doesn’t like pandas?) but, it’s how the author starts the article that shows you just how far removed from reality the liberal left is.

This just might be the saddest news you will hear today–a giant panda , living in China’s Jinan Zoo, died after accidently being gassed with carbon monoxide and chlorine.

I wonder if the families of the two sailors, one captured and one killed in Afghanistan last week, would agree with the idiot that wrote that?

And by the way, how many babies were murdered last week, as a result of China’s forced abortion policy?

Mark Levin’s response to Judge’s decision

Thursday, July 29,2010

As posted in The National Review:

Wednesday, July 28, 2010

An Abominable Decision   [Mark R. Levin]

 

This is a typical example of a judge stating the correct legal standard, but then ignoring it and applying the test in a fashion completely divorced from the facts of the case in order to reach a predetermined decision.

First, the court states correctly that the sort of constitutional challenge brought here — a facial challenge — is the most difficult challenge to mount successfully. It requires that the plaintiff (here the federal government) must demonstrate that the law can never be applied in a constitutional fashion. The test cannot be met with hypothetical arguments — yet that is exactly what the court relies on in its ruling: the assertion that the AZ law will impose an impermissible burden on law enforcement, which is to determine the legal status of a person detained pursuant to the AZ law on the reasonable suspicion that the person is in the country illegally. The court does not provide any empirical basis to support its conclusion. It’s pure supposition.

As the court notes, the burden a party must meet when engaging in a facial challenge of a given statute is established in United States v. Salerno. The court pays lip service to Salerno at the beginning of its analysis on the “likelihood of success on the merits,” but then proceeds to ignore the Salerno principles.

The court cites Salerno when it notes: “A facial challenge must fail where a statute has a ‘plainly legitimate sweep.’” In deciding a facial challenge, courts “must be careful not to go beyond the statute’s facial requirements and speculate about ‘hypothetical’ or imaginary cases.” Then the court doesn’t even attempt to actually analyze the provisions it overturns within the Salerno context, except in one instance — in fn. 18 — where it upholds a provision of SB 1070.

Distinguish the facial challenge from an as-applied challenge. At one point the court engages in a hypothetical example, when it talks about a potential unfair burden on a legal alien failing to have a dog on a leash, wondering whether he could be detained and subject to an impermissible burden for not carrying his papers under that circumstance. (The court talks about John Doe, a legal alien from Chile who was walking his dog without a leash and was stopped by Sheriff Smith and detained at the local jail for eight hours while his status was checked. It didn’t actually happen.)

The judge also worries that increasing the time a person is detained while his immigration status is being determined might be unconstitutional. Again, pure speculation. (Moreover, the First Circuit Court of Appeals has already found that such a delay is permissible where there is reasonable suspicion to check a person’s status.)

In the bulk of its legal analysis, the court applies a selective reading of the case to an incomplete reading of the statute. In particular, respecting the provision related to confirming a person’s legal status, the court largely ignores the requirement that law-enforcement officers are able to confirm a person’s legal status only where there is a reasonable suspicion that a person is in the country illegally. The judge essentially omits the reasonable-suspicion component of the law and concludes that the act implements a new set of immigration rules particular to Arizona, in violation of a case called Hines v. Davidowitz.

Hines is an old case dealing with a vastly different Pennsylvania law. Here’s what the Hines court correctly concluded: “The question whether a state law is invalid as conflicting with Federal laws touching the same subject is not to be determined according to any rigid formula or rule, but depends upon whether, under the circumstances of the particular case, the state law stands as an obstacle to the accomplishment and execution of the full purposes and objectives of Congress.”

 

The Pennsylvania act required every alien 18 years or over, with certain exceptions, to register once each year; provide such information as is required by the statute, plus any “other information and details” that the Department of Labor and Industry may direct; pay $1 as an annual registration fee; receive an alien identification card and carry it at all times; show the card whenever it may be demanded by any police officer or agent of the Department of Labor and Industry, and exhibit the card as a condition precedent to registering a motor vehicle in his name or obtaining a license to operate one. The Department of Labor and Industry is charged with the duties of classifying the registrations for “the purpose of ready reference,” and furnishing a copy of the classification to the Pennsylvania Motor Police. Nonexempt aliens who fail to register are subject to a fine of not more than $100 or imprisonment for not more than 60 days, or both. For failure to carry an identification card or for failure to show it upon proper demand, the punishment is a fine of not more than $10, or imprisonment for not more than 10 days, or both.

“Our conclusion,” said the court, “is that [the challenger of the PA law] is correct in his contention that the power to restrict, limit, regulate, and register aliens as a distinct group is not an equal and continuously existing concurrent power of state and nation, but that whatever power a state may have is subordinate to supreme national law.” Hines does not support the court’s conclusion respecting the AZ statute. That case clearly deals with an entirely new legal regime. AZ’s statute merely complements the federal statutory scheme.

Amazingly, today’s decision does not provide any substantive analysis of the very high standards required for mounting a successful facial challenge. The judge thinks certain events or difficulties will occur, and then uses her thoughts as a substitute for empirical evidence. The fact is that the AZ law does not create any new or additional federal responsibilities. It does not establish any new or inconsistent obligations for aliens legally or illegally residing in or otherwise found in Arizona. And, unlike the Hines case so prominent in the court’s ruling, Arizona’s law does not establish any new or extra forms, registration procedures, or other obligations for aliens, legal or illegal.

Respecting preemption, which is the substantive core of the federal government’s case, once again the court presents no evidence in support of its conclusion that AZ is likely to impermissibly interfere with federal law on multiple fronts, including the requirement that aliens carry papers or that state and local law enforcement may undertake constitutionally proper inquiries into the legal status of those they stop. AZ isn’t requiring the federal government to do anything. The federal government can choose not to take AZ’s calls and not cooperate. The court has essentially parroted the federal government’s claims about burdens.

Moreover, the federal government does not “occupy the field” in any event. Indeed, as a matter of federal law and long-standing practice, it encourages states to assist in the enforcement of federal immigration law — both in practice and law. In fact, it relies heavily on them.

Federal preemption can be either express or implied: express where the Constitution says so (declaration of war), implied by conflict with federal law. In the immigration context, implied preemption exists only 1) if a statute falls into the narrow category of a “regulation of immigration”; 2) if Congress expressed “the clear and manifest purpose” of completely occupying the field and displacing all state activity; or 3) if the state regulation conflicts with federal laws such that it “stands as an obstacle to the accomplishment of the full purposes and objectives of Congress” (De Canas v. Bica). Federal immigration law does not preempt AZ law, and the authors of the AZ law were well acquainted with the pitfalls they needed to avoid — and avoided them.

I think the word “abomination” does not overstate this court’s decision.

Six pages of must read

Thursday, July 29, 2010

I wanted to post this article, by Angelo Codevilla (posted in the American Spectator on July 19), but unfortunately, I was in the middle of redoing my work station and my office was a complete mess. But this piece is going to have a very long shelf life, at least for the time being, and is a must read for everyone who is seriously concerned about the wretched state our political leaders have put our country in. Codevilla says it all. 

Here is the link:

This is a very long article, but I promise, you will not lose interest unless you are a liberal who is already drunk on the cool-aid of Socialism. If you find that you cannot finish this article in one lump sum, bookmark it and read what you can as your time permits. You will be rewarded.

The new Chevy Volt

Friday, July 30, 2010

According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, 48.2% of our nations electricity was generated by coal in 2008. And in an interview with the San Francisco Chronicle on January 17, 2008, Obama said this: “So if somebody wants to build a coal-powered plant, they can. It’s just that I will bankrupt them.”

Fast forward to the present, and you have the same Barrack Obama unveiling the new Chevy “Volt”. A hybrid car that only seats 4, gets 280 miles to the tank of gas (considered the back up power source), and only 40 miles per charge for the “primary” battery powered electric motor. Also here in the present, we have the same Barrack Obama doing his absolute best to put our domestic oil companies out of business.

Bottom line is: If you are shopping for a new car, you might want to consider the Carbuckle “bolt” (pictured above) over the Chevy “Volt” for some painfully obvious reasons.

If Obama and the Democrats aren’t stopped and stopped soon, we’re all going to be riding around in horse drawn jalopies, if not restricted to the shoe leather express. Let’s face it, the Chevy “Volt” is no bargain. At $41,000 it is nothing more than make work for President Zero’s union buddies, over at Government motors, to insure votes in the next election and in 2012.

The Chevy “Volt” is obviousy not the solution for moving us away from oil dependence. By the time we do build a power grid to support this car, it will be obsolete. 

My advice: If you have money to spend, put it toward things that will allow you to hunt and grow food, and protect that food from the slime that only knows how to sell drugs and steal for a living.
