Libs Cracking Under Pressure

2009-08-17T15:38:00.002-05:00

The pressure put on the liberal's idea of taking over the health care system by patriots speaking out at town halls across the country is causing them to backtrack like the cowards they are.

Obama is now saying the government "option", which is the start of a government takeover of health care, may be off the table.

Ultra-lefty Howard Dean is screaming again. Waa waa.

Liberals Overreacting to Lou Dobbs

2009-08-11T15:01:00.002-05:00

Geez, can't the lefty liberals take a joke?

Lou Dobbs makes refers to Howard Dean as a bloodsucking leftist and continues his analogy to a vampire by saying the only way to stop him is to drive a stake through his heart, and the entire leftwing goes out of their minds.

Now, the vampire's brother, Jim Dean, who is probably also a bloodsucker, wants Dobbs fired from his radio and TV shows.

That's way over the top. Dobbs was just exercising his First Amendment rights.

Russian Subs Spotted Near US Coast

2009-08-05T11:11:00.002-05:00

Seems that Russia is up to its old Cold War tricks, sending their submarines to spy on the US of A.

Let 'em come. They are no where as strong as we are and all they are doing is trying to look as mean as they were as the Soviet Union once was.

Hell, they can't even get their missiles to work right.

Bombings increase as US leaves

2009-07-31T15:06:00.002-05:00

As many expected, bombings in Iraq are rising as US troops are pulled out.

The latest are six blasts killing 29 people worshiping at mosques. More than 120 were injured.

Who decided that our troops should be pulled out this year? It's evident the Iraqis can't protect their own.

Palin 2012

2009-07-27T16:32:00.002-05:00

I think Sarah Palin will make a fine candidate for the Republican Party in 2012. Hopefully, she will take advantage of her star power to raise the necessary funds to make a good run at it.

And how about Joe the Plumber as her running mate?

Wahoo! Palin/Plumber. What a ticket.

Perfect Gifts for the Redneck in Your Life

2009-07-22T14:10:00.006-05:00

Got turned on to the perfect gifts for all the rednecks in the world, and believe me, there are a bunch of us.

They are signs that allow the full expression of "redneckness" now available from the RV Art Gallery. My old buddy Jerry B. (now why can't I ever remember his last name?) called me up just as soon as he got them up on his site.

Patience, folks. I'll have them posted up here in a minute.

Anyway, if you are an RVer and haven't been to Jerry's one and only gallery totally devoted to all things RV, then you are really missing out on some good stuff. He's got art prints, jewelry, kitchen items, clothing, gifts of all sorts.

Oh, yeah, I almost forgot. He has a one-of-a-kind RV-themed quilt made by the very hands of his dear old mother. He won't tell you that, but I couldn't pass up the chance to plug her handiwork. Go to the Gallery and look for it. It's something special.

OK, now to the signs. You can just click on the images and you'll be taken right to the site. Or better yet, click the gallery banner up there in the corner and look for them on the Home Furnishings page. (I might get a little something extra if you do it that way, if you catch my drift.)

Ready? Here they are:

Are these a hoot or what?

Oh, yeah. If you want to see them side by side, here you go:

Oklahoma City Pharmacist Defends Actions

2009-06-02T10:38:00.002-05:00

Accused murderer Jerome Ersland, an Oklahoma City pharmacist, defended himself on The O'Reilly factor last night.

Ersland is charged with first-degree murder after he shot and killed a would-be robber at his pharmacy in south OKC. After shooting and hitting 16-year-old Antwun Parker, who was unarmed, he chased two other suspects from the store firing several times.

He then went back inside and shot Parker five more times as he lay bleeding on the floor, prompting the murder charge.

He told Bill O'Reilly, "I came back in store because I was working with two ladies and I thought the person laying on the floor had shot the younger lady Megan because the mother was yelling, 'Megan, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry. ' I went up to him, and he seemed to be just dazed, and he started talking to me, and he started turning to the right. I'm crippled. ... I thought I was going to get killed in the next few seconds."

Now, I am no bleeding-heart liberal, but it seems to me that Ersland went too far.

Many of my conservative brethern are outraged by the district attorney's actions, but it will now be up to a jury, as it should be.

EPA to regulate hoax

2009-03-23T16:15:00.002-05:00

All right thinking people know global warming is a hoax and the EPA under President George Bush understood this. Now that Hussein Obama is in power, the sissies at the EPA are singing a different tune.

The Environmental Protection Agency has moved to declare that greenhouse gases are pollutants that pose a danger to the public’s health and welfare. That determination, once made final, will pave the way for federal regulation of carbon dioxide, methane and other heat-trapping gases linked to global warming.

In February, the E.P.A.’s administrator, Lisa P. Jackson, hinted strongly in an interview with The New York Times that the agency would take action on the issue before April 2. That date marks the second anniversary of a Supreme Court ruling ordering the agency to determine whether carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases qualify as pollutants under the Clean Air Act.

Inhofe has big lead over Rice

2008-09-22T12:41:00.002-05:00

Our beloved senator and champion of all things conservative - Jim Inhofe - has a major lead in the polls over liberal whiner Andrew Rice.

Seems the boy-who-would-be-king bit off more than he could chew.

McCain/Palin: true mavericks

2008-09-07T07:19:00.002-05:00

William Safire says it best:

Then came the maverick ticket with its takeover of the change game. Senator Joe Lieberman, avoiding Obama’s error of playing to the multitude of partisans present, looked straight at the camera and spoke effectively to fellow Democrats and independents at home about McCain’s coalition-building work in the Senate. Joe faces heavy punishment for his courage from a vindictive Democratic leader, Senator Harry Reid. Best delivery by a Republican male was by Senator Lindsey Graham, who focused on the wisdom of the “surge” McCain advocated. (Obama was later forced by Fox’s persistent Bill O’Reilly to admit, at long last, that the surge “succeeded.”)
Then the St. Paul convention was hit by Hurricane Sarah and her admirable family. The cliché is that — faced by part of a party long troubled by McCain’s different drumming — the governor of Alaska was able to “energize the base” of social conservatives. The more salient fact is that her skillful speech and joyful demeanor was even more impressive than Obama’s introduction to the Democratic Party four years ago. The establishment-shaking candidate was a happy warrior in the glare of major-league scrutiny. Most of the huge, uncommitted audience at home enjoyed this strong woman’s national audition; the first test of McCain’s gamble paid off.
Though her “lipstick” ad lib got the laugh (and may have offended pit-bull fanciers), she forcefully delivered a Sorensenesque line that crystallized the choice this year’s voters face: “There are those who use change to promote their careers. And then, there are those, like John McCain, who use their careers to promote change.”

Jesse Helms: A True Conservative Hero

2008-07-08T09:57:00.002-05:00

America lost a true conservative hero on July Fourth.

From the Washington Times:

Mr. Helms was an influential conservative who served from 1973 to 2003. He had suffered multiple health problems, including bone disorders, prostate cancer and heart disease. Funeral arrangements are being made, according to a release from the Jesse Helms Center in Wingate, N.C.

A polarizing figure, Mr. Helms was a harsh critic of affirmative action and other progressive causes. He firmly fought to defend his views on social policies and foreign affairs, a fight that garnered high praise among conservative stalwarts.

Mary Ann Akers, who blogs at The Washington Post, wrote a story about Georgia Congressman John Linder hurting a knee while dining with his family and makes it look like he was drunk and had to be dragged out.

Is there no shame with these liberals?

Bush: Things Will Get Better

2008-03-15T09:01:00.002-05:00

President George Bush told us yesterday the economy will get better and all patriotic Americans believe him.

"It was strong action by the Fed, and they did so because some financial institutions that borrowed money to buy securities in the housing industry must now repair their balance sheets before they can make further loans," the president said.

He also had kind words for his economic team. "Today's events are fast moving, but the chairman of the Federal Reserve and the secretary of the Treasury are on top of them and will take the appropriate steps to promote stability in our markets," Bush assured his audience.

More than $150 billion of tax rebate checks are scheduled to reach 130 million U.S. households in May, Bush said, adding that his economic advisors believed the money would boost consumer spending somewhat in the second quarter and would have "a greater effect in the third quarter."

In the meantime, he said, "The challenge is not to do anything foolish."

Worth Every Penny

2008-03-10T06:55:00.001-05:00

Got rid of the bad guy so Operation Iraqi Freedom is worth it.

The flow of blood may be ebbing, but the flood of money into the Iraq war is steadily rising, new analyses show. In 2008, its sixth year, the war will cost approximately $12 billion a month, triple the "burn" rate of its earliest years, Nobel Prize-winning economist Joseph E. Stiglitz and co-author Linda J. Bilmes report in a new book.

Beyond 2008, working with "best-case" and "realistic-moderate" scenarios, they project the Iraq and Afghan wars, including long-term U.S. military occupations of those countries, will cost the U.S. budget between $1.7 trillion and $2.7 trillion — or more — by 2017.

No Surrender in Iraq

2008-03-09T09:10:00.002-05:00

Even the Chinese know pulling out of Iraq is bad.

The costs of leaving Iraq unstable would be high. Jihadists everywhere would be emboldened. I have met many Gulf leaders and know that their deep fear is that a precipitate U.S. withdrawal would gravely jeopardize their security.

A hurried withdrawal from Iraq would cause the leaders of many countries to conclude that the American people cannot tolerate the nearly 4,000 casualties they have suffered in Iraq and that in a protracted asymmetrical war the U.S. government will not have its people's support to bear the pain that is necessary to prevail. And this even after the surge of 30,000 additional troops under Gen. David Petraeus has resulted in an improved security situation.

Whatever candidates might say in the course of this presidential campaign, I cannot believe that any American president could afford to walk away from Iraq so lightly, damage American prestige and influence, and so undermine the credibility of American security guarantees.

Pat Robertson on Giuliani Team

2007-11-08T11:58:00.000-06:00

With Pat Robertson on board with Rudy Giuliani the rest of the Republican field just now go home. It's over.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 7 — They could compete for strangest bedfellows of 2008.

Rudolph W. Giuliani is a supporter of gay and abortion rights who is building his Republican primary campaign around his response to the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.

Pat Robertson, the Christian conservative broadcaster, once said permissiveness toward homosexuality and abortion led to God’s “lifting his protection” to allow those attacks.

But there they were Wednesday morning, Mr. Robertson endorsing Mr. Giuliani, the former mayor of New York City, as “an acceptable” Republican “who can win the general election.”

It was the latest manifestation of the deep divide in the Christian conservative movement over how to balance politics and principle in the coming era after President Bush, who once so deftly brought it all together.

Many former Christian conservative allies dismissed the endorsement as an inexplicable stunt. They noted that Mr. Robertson, 77, had lost much of his influence since the heady days of his second-place finish in the Iowa caucuses 20 years ago when he ran for the Republican presidential nomination.

Deer Kills Georgia Man

2007-10-08T16:32:00.000-05:00

A Georgia man was attacked and killed by a deer. Is Nature seeking revenge?

A 66-year-old Ball Ground man was attacked and killed by a deer Sunday night, authorities said.

The deer — most likely a red deer, and not the more commonly found white-tailed deer — was one of several that John Henry Frix kept on his vast property on Trail of Tears Trail off Yellow Creek Road.

His relatives told sheriff's deputies that the deer had been very aggressive lately, chalking its behavior to rut — the period when deer mate.

Frix had gone out to tend to the deer about 7 p.m., county sheriff's Sgt. Jay Baker said. When he didn't return, his relatives called authorities.

Deputies found him about an hour and a half later lying inside one of the pens, 100 yards from the home. He had been gored several times in the upper body by the antlers of the deer, Baker said.

Congress should listen to Petraeus

2007-09-10T10:24:00.000-05:00

General Petraeus will tell Congress the truth and they should listen to him. He know Iraq. He knows the troops.

General Petraeus, whose long-awaited testimony before Congress will begin Monday, has informed President Bush that troop cuts may begin in mid-December, with the withdrawal of one of the 20 American combat brigades in Iraq, about 4,000 troops. By August, the American force in Iraq would be down to 15 combat brigades, the force level before Mr. Bush’s troop reinforcement plan.

The precise timing of such reductions, which would leave about 130,000 troops in Iraq, could vary, depending on conditions in the country. But the general has also said that it is too soon to present recommendations on reducing American forces below that level because the situation in Iraq is in flux. He has suggested that he wait until March to outline proposals on that question.

Biden Attacks Bush

2007-08-28T18:19:00.000-05:00

Sen. Joe Biden, the longest shot of Democratic candidates for president, has attacked this country's fearless leader once again. Nothing but shameless political grandstanding.

We'd follow George W. Bush to Hell if he asked. Biden, we wouldn't give a glass of ice water in the same place.

Gonzales to stay. Thank God.

2007-07-29T08:57:00.000-05:00

Alberto Gonzales is staying at the Justice Department in spite of the unwarranted attacks upon him by the democrat party. He's the best attorney general this country has ever had.

WASHINGTON - Attorney General Alberto Gonzales says he's staying at the Justice Department to try to repair its broken image, telling Congress in a statement released Monday he's troubled that politics may have played a part in hiring career federal prosecutors.

Senators already skeptical of Gonzales' ability to lead the department were preparing to hammer him about the firings of eight U.S. attorneys and conflicts between his earlier statements and the testimony of a former aide.

The attorney general's comments were included in 26 pages of prepared testimony released on the eve of his scheduled appearance before the Senate Judiciary Committee. The hearing comes during an escalating executive-privilege standoff with the White House over the firings.

Across the Capitol, the House Judiciary Committee was readying votes on contempt citations for White House chief of staff Josh Bolten and former presidential counsel Harriet Miers for disregarding subpoenas to testify and provide documents on the firings. The White House has said that any such materials are covered by executive privilege and that the president's current and former immediate advisers are immune from congressional subpoenas.

Judge Throws Out Plame Lawsuit

2007-07-20T14:16:00.000-05:00

Finally justice for the Bush Administration when the judge throws out the lawsuit brought by Valerie Plame, wife of the traitor Joe Wilson.

WASHINGTON - A federal judge on Thursday dismissed former CIA operative Valerie Plame’s lawsuit against members of the Bush administration in the CIA leak scandal.

Plame, the wife of former Ambassador Joseph Wilson, had accused Vice President Dick Cheney and others of conspiring to leak her identity in 2003. Plame said that violated her privacy rights and was illegal retribution for her husband’s criticism of the administration.

U.S. District Judge John D. Bates dismissed the case on jurisdictional grounds and said he would not express an opinion on the constitutional arguments. Bates dismissed the case against all defendants: Cheney, White House political adviser Karl Rove, former White House aide I. Lewis “Scooter” Libby and former Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage.

Plame’s attorneys had said the lawsuit would be an uphill battle. Public officials are normally immune from such lawsuits filed in connection with their jobs.

Heathens In the Senate

2007-07-13T15:01:00.000-05:00

I'll let the story speak for itself.

WASHINGTON (AFP) - Three people were arrested Thursday after staging a noisy protest as a Hindu chaplain read the opening prayer at the US Senate, branding his appearance an "abomination."

US Capitol Police said the protestors, apparently Christian religious activists, were ejected from the chamber and charged with an unlawful disruption of Congress.

As Hindu chaplain Rajan Zed started to recite his prayer, one protestor was heard chanting "Lord Jesus, forgive us father for allowing a prayer which is an abomination in your sight.

"You are the one, true living God."

Faith leaders from various creeds are sometimes invited to give the Senate's daily opening prayer, though it is normally offered by the chamber's Christian chaplain.

The pressure group Americans United for Separation of Church and State condemned the protest.

"This shows the intolerance of many Religious Right activists," said the group's executive director, Reverend Barry Lynn.

"They say they want more religion in the public square, but it's clear they mean only their religion."

The conservative American Family Association had been campaigning against the use of a Hindu prayer in the chamber, asking members to send emails and letters to Senators in protest.

Dems Lead Charge For Pay Raises in the House

2007-06-28T15:26:00.000-05:00

The Democrats in the House led the charge to raise their salaries despite a record of failure. The Associated Press reports:

The cost-of-living raise endorsed Wednesday evening gets lawmakers back on track for automatic pay raises after a fight between the parties last year and again in January killed the pay increase due this year. That was the first interruption of the annual congressional pay boost in seven years.

The blowup came after Democrats last year fulfilled a campaign promise to deny themselves more pay until Congress raised the minimum wage. Delays in the minimum wage bill cost every lawmaker about $3,100 this year.

On a 244-181 vote Wednesday, Democrats and Republicans alike killed a bid by Reps. Jim Matheson, D-Utah, and Lee Terry, R-Neb., to get a direct vote to block the COLA, which is automatically awarded unless lawmakers vote to block it. The Senate has not indicated when it will deal with a similar measure.

It's still amnesty

2007-06-19T11:26:00.000-05:00

Regardless of what they call it, allowing illegal immigrants to stay in this country is amnesty. It's wrong.

From the Los Angeles Times:

The proposal announced Monday will incorporate the substance of about two dozen amendments adopted when the Senate debated the bill for two weeks this year. The core of the legislation has become known as the "grand bargain." Under the plan, opponents agreed to provide many illegal immigrants now in the United States a path to citizenship in return for a restructuring of the immigration system to give greater weight to education and job skills, rather than family ties.

Reid pulled the legislation from the floor June 7 in a dispute with Republicans over how many amendments could be debated. He announced last week that he and GOP leaders had reached an agreement permitting each party to introduce about a dozen more amendments.

Attack Iran Before It's Too Late

2007-06-12T14:22:00.000-05:00

The Iranian government is sending weapons to the Taliban to help kill Americans. We must strike them now.

Undersecretary of State Nicholas Burns, speaking to reporters in Paris, said Iran was funding insurrections across the Middle East — and "Iran is now even transferring arms to the Taliban in Afghanistan."

"It's a country that's trying to flex its muscles, but in a way that's injurious to the interests of just about everybody else in the world," he said. "I think it's a major miscalculation."

Cheney's trip a success

2007-05-14T15:33:00.000-05:00

Vice President Dick Cheney is pleased with his recent trip to Iraq. That ought to make Congress really mad.

Too bad.

SHANNON, Ireland - Vice President Dick Cheney said Monday that he generally got good responses from Arab allies in his appeal for more help in stabilizing Iraq. He also said he recognizes that advancing the Israel-Palestinian peace process is a related issue that also must be addressed.

"You don't get to pick and choose," the vice president told reporters aboard his plane as he returned from a weeklong tour of the Middle East, including an unannounced two-day visit to Iraq and stops in Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Egypt and Jordan.

Of his meetings with rank-and-file U.S. troops in Iraq, Cheney said, "I thought they were amazingly positive. They believed in what they were doing."

FBI Foils Death Plot

2007-05-08T12:02:00.000-05:00

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports:

FORT DIX, N.J. — Six Islamic militants from Yugoslavia and the Middle East were arrested on charges of plotting to attack the Fort Dix Army post and "kill as many soldiers as possible," authorities said Tuesday.

In conversations secretly recorded by an FBI informant over the past year, the men talked about killing in the name of Allah and attacking U.S. warships that might dock in Philadelphia, according an FBI criminal complaint.

Tony's Back

2007-05-01T11:25:00.000-05:00

Tony Snow has returned as White House spokesman.

White House press secretary Tony Snow was back on the job Monday, five weeks after doctors discovered a recurrence of his cancer. He said he would soon undergo chemotherapy "just to make sure we've got the thing knocked out."

Snow, 51, has been on medical leave since undergoing exploratory surgery last month, when doctors discovered that a growth in his abdominal area was cancerous and had metastasized, or spread, to the liver.

This man does not deserve to be President

2007-04-24T10:37:00.000-05:00

Barak Obama continue to criticize President Bush in a time of war. He is a traitor and doesn't deserve to be president.

Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama said Monday that President Bush has fallen short in his role as leader of the free world, and the 2008 election is a chance to change that.

"This president may occupy the White House, but for the last six years the position of leader of the free world has remained open. And it is time to fill that role once more," Obama said in a speech to the Chicago Council on Global Affairs.

Republican traitors

2007-03-26T15:14:00.000-05:00

There are traitors within the Republican Party that refuse to stand by the president and his attorney general:

Three key Republican senators sharply questioned his truthfulness over the firings last fall of eight federal prosecutors. Two more Democrats on Sunday joined the list of lawmakers calling for Gonzales' ouster.

Several Republicans also urged President Bush to allow sworn testimony from his top aides about their role in dismissing the U.S. attorneys — a standoff threatening to result in Capitol Hill subpoenas of White House officials.

Gonzales faces the toughest test of his two-year tenure at the Justice Department with the release of documents suggesting he was more involved with the firings than he indicated earlier.

Tony Snow Had Cancer

2007-03-22T14:20:00.000-05:00

Burried at the bottom of another story was this:

"As somebody who has been through this, Elizabeth Edwards is setting a powerful example for a lot of people — and good and positive one," said Snow, who had his colon removed in 2005 and underwent six months of chemotherapy after being diagnosed with colon cancer.

I had no idea.

Why Giuliani won't get the nomination

2007-03-07T11:35:00.000-06:00

Rudy Giuliani is not a true conservative and does not deserve to represent the Rebuplican Party. He has no family values and is too hot-headed as Jonathan Capehart points out:

Giuliani could be vindictive. He had no qualms about using government to settle a score. When the City Council overrode his veto of a bill to change the operations of homeless shelters in December 1998, Giuliani sought to evict five community service programs, including one that served 500 mentally ill people, in the district of the bill's chief sponsor, and to replace them with a homeless shelter.

What's more, he released a list of sites for other shelters that would be housed in the districts of council members who voted in favor of the override. (He backed down two months later, after much public outrage.)

Phony Al

2007-03-01T16:05:00.000-06:00

Seems that Al Gore talks the talk but doesn't walk the walk.

From Conservative-Majority:

Al Gore’s global-warming documentary, An Inconvenient Truth, collected an Oscar for best documentary feature, but the Tennessee Center for Policy Research has found that Gore has made his entire followers look like idiots. Gore’s mansion, 20 room; 8 bathroom, located in the posh Belle Meade area of Nashville, consumes more electricity every month than the average American household uses in an entire year, according to the Nashville Electric Service (NES).

And the Dumbocrats want to be in the White House? I don't think the taxpayers can afford their electric bill.

Baby Barak

2007-02-25T11:52:00.000-06:00

Conservative-Majority hit it right with this:

Now we all know that if a person ever wants to find out about their family history, they should decide to run for a political office, however, it amazes me that the media is not jumping all over Obama for his comment. I mean, c’mon the man needs to have much thicker skin if he IS to be the next President. Back during the summer months he was recorded telling reporter Maureen Dowd not to make fun of his ears because he was teased as a kid. With Obama coming out and saying this, I confidently say that Hillary is more of a man than what “clean”, “articulate” Obama will ever be.

Success in Iraq

2007-02-21T12:53:00.000-06:00

According to our Vice President there is some success in Iraq.

Vice President Cheney tells ABC News that British P.M.Tony Blair's just-announced troop reduction is a sign progress is being made in Iraq.

"Well, I look at it and see it is actually an affirmation that there are parts of Iraq where things are going pretty well," Cheney told ABC News' Jonathan Karl.

"In fact, I talked to a friend just the other day who had driven to Baghdad down to Basra, seven hours, found the situation dramatically improved from a year or so ago, sort of validated the British view they had made progress in southern Iraq and that they can therefore reduce their force levels," Cheney said.

Go get 'em, Dick.

A gift for Momma

2007-02-16T09:32:00.000-06:00

As a young boy I gave my momma a little porcelain figurine called "Mother's Little Helper." She still had it when she passed last year. It had been dropped, broken and glued together several times, but she treasured it.

I recently saw an article taking about Gift Idea For The Woman Balancing Family And Career that I wished had been available back in the day.

This little sculpture is of a woman dressed for work carrying a briefcase and holding the hand of a small child. It reminded me so much of my own momma that I'm not ashamed to say I teared up a bit.

If she was still with us, I wouldn't hesitate to get her one. I'm sending a link to that site to my nieces.

Time to hit Iran

2007-02-12T08:19:00.000-06:00

The U.S. government now has proof of Iran's involvement in killing U.S. troops.

The time to hit them is now, before they get the bomb.

Speaker Pelosi Out of Control

2007-02-09T12:43:00.000-06:00

I don't usually agree with the folks at Capitol Hill Blue, but here's an exception from Doug Thompson:

In the House, the imperialism of Speaker Nancy Pelosi is mired in a controversy over her desire to jet home and back on luxury military planes just like the buffoon who preceded her, Dennis Hastert.

The debate over “Pelosi One,” as Republicans have dubbed it, has reached such ludicrous proportions that John “I didn’t take a bribe but I leave my options open” Murtha threatens to hold up military funding if Nancy doesn’t get her plane perk.

Go get her, Doug!

Gays against Snickers Ad

2007-02-07T05:13:00.000-06:00

The Snickers ad during the Superbowl showing the two good ol' boys accidentally touching lips has got some gays up in arms.

It's gay bashing, some say. It's homophobic, says others. Well, it may be, but it sure was funny to me.

Sorry Won't Cut It

2007-02-02T10:54:00.000-06:00

The leftist Turner Broadcasting Co. has said it's sorry for the trouble it caused over an advertising ploy gone wrong in Boston.

Nothing can repair the damage their stunt caused to the people of Boston who are still shook up over 9/11.

The City of Boston should take the $1 million from Turner and charge not only the two saps, one of which is here from Eastern Europe, but everyone in all companies involved.

President Gigged by NY Times for protecting business

2007-01-30T09:20:00.000-06:00

Geez, It seems even when President Bush tries to do something to help American business the socialists at the NY Times jumps his case.

Now tell me there's no liberal media bias.

Looking for a good nutritional supplement?

2007-01-26T15:14:00.000-06:00

If so, you've got to try Acai Plus. It's worth its weight in gold.

Since I've been taking it, the arthritis in my shoulder doesn't bother me on those cold mornings at the job site. Some days I could barely lift my left arm up, but now unloading my truck is a breeze.

And if you want to get in on the money making aspect of it check out this Acai web site.

Wisdom from O'Reilly

2007-01-25T09:40:00.000-06:00

From Bill's Talking Points:

Here's what the American left wants right now:

• A rapid withdrawal from Iraq , leaving that country to pretty much fend for itself.

• Discussions, but no confrontation, with Iran. — An article in The L.A. Times this week played down any danger from Iran.

• Free medical care for low-income Americans, run by the government .

• No improved security at the southern border — the left wants to maintain the chaotic status quo; the far left wants to maintain open borders.

• A big tax hike on affluent Americans and government regulation of corporate salaries for fat cats

• Suspension of NSA listening programs and target suspected terrorists

• Civilian trials for captured terrorists

• And the closing of Guantanamo Bay.

• And finally: gay marriage, unfettered abortion, medical euthanasia, fetal stem cell research and a host of other social changes.

What a world we would have without the lefties.

More deaths in Baghdad

2007-01-16T12:25:00.000-06:00

More bombings and deaths in Iraq today. This time at a university.

Looks like President Bush's plan to send more troops is the right thing to do.

Ah-nold wants to borrow

2007-01-10T13:25:00.000-06:00

Calilfornia Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is acting more and more like a democrat.

According to the LA Times, he wants to borrow billions of dollars -- $43.3 billion to be exact. Whatever happened to balanced budgets, pay as you go?

Guess the Left Coast caught up with him.

Surge will save Iraq

2007-01-08T15:12:00.000-06:00

We can't wait until the President announces his new plan for Irag.

The surge will save Irag from the terrorists and prove the Presdient right. The doomsayers just have to get out of the way and let him do his job.

Traitor tries to cover his tracks

2007-01-02T09:28:00.000-06:00

Here's an article about Lt. Ehren Watada who refused to deploy to Iraq.

This coward and traitor is trying to justify his actions. Prison for life is what he deserves.

Gotcha!

2006-12-30T07:34:00.000-06:00

Hussein executed

R.I.P. Gerald Ford

2006-12-27T08:00:00.000-06:00

You were one of the greatest.

Democratic sour grapes

2006-12-12T09:12:00.000-06:00

The Democrats may have won control of Congress, but that hasn't stopped their whining.

Many are saying the 109th Congress was the worst ever, but the Dems would have let the terrorists blow up more cities.

They still might. We have to fight them.

President Bush is not insane

2006-12-04T06:02:00.000-06:00

To the author of Is President Bush Insane?

Is it insane to want to bring democracy to people who have lived under terror for years? Is it insane to get rid of an evil dictator who preyed on his people, used poison gas on thousands and tortured even more?

No I don't think that's insane. I think you are.

Trent Lott's comeback

2006-11-16T15:27:00.000-06:00

Fallen Senate leader Trent Lott has made a comeback.

Republicans have chosen him for the No. 2 spot in the Senate.

Christmas Returns to Wal-Mart

2006-11-10T09:22:00.000-06:00

Thank you, Jesus.

Wal-Mart has finally seen the light and will label most of its merchandise as "Christmas."

Cut and Runners Gloating

2006-11-08T15:09:00.000-06:00

So the Libs have claimed victory.

Get ready for higher taxes, higher gas prices, more welfare ...

At least they'll try, but President Bush still has the veto and they don't have the votes to stop it.

All is not lost.

Allies turn against us

2006-11-06T09:40:00.000-06:00

We've saved their limey butts twice, and now the Brits are turning against us, according to a story coming out today.

Just Desserts

2006-11-03T08:34:00.000-06:00

Here's a story claiming a newspaper editorial caused the death of a homosexual innkeeper.

What a crock. The "man" killed himself two years after the editorial was printed and he had severe mental problems.

Maybe he finally realized how despicable his lifestyle really was.

Messing with the president

2006-11-02T08:37:00.000-06:00

Two buffoons in Colorado are trying to prove President Bush had them kicked out of a rally last year.

They'll lose. Just like the Dems have been losing for years.

Republicans will win

2006-10-31T11:09:00.000-06:00

Regardless of what the so-called pundits are saying, the Republicans will keep control of Congress.

Take it to the bank.

Nukem Now

2006-10-26T09:59:00.000-05:00

Iran has admitted it is expanding it's nuclear program, which means they are getting closer to making nuclear bombs.

It's time we took them out.

Bush confidence

2006-10-23T10:08:00.000-05:00

President George W. Bush expressed confidence that Republicans will maintain control of the House and the Senate following the elections.

Go get 'em, George.

Voting for Democrats

2006-10-19T14:00:00.000-05:00

If you vote for Democrats you undo all that President Bush and the Congress has done in the past six years to make us all safer from the terrorism dogs.

And if your a Republican and don't vote, it's just like voting for the Democrats.

Vote early. Vote Right.

Things aren't as bad in Iraq as Libs say they are

2006-10-18T09:01:00.000-05:00

Vice President Dick Cheney on Rush Limbaugh:

On the other hand, this government has only been in office about five months, five or six months now. They’re off to a good start. It is difficult, no question about it, but we’ve now got over 300,000 Iraqis trained and equipped as part of their security forces. They’ve had three national elections with higher turnout than we have here in the United States. If you look at the general overall situation, they’re doing remarkably well.

Shove that in your pipe and smoke it, Libs!

Tribunals Bill Makes Us Safer

2006-10-18T05:28:00.000-05:00

Been hearing a lot of whining by some liberal pukes about the military tribunals bill signed by our dear President about it making torture legal.

Well, so what. Anyone against the U S of A deserves to be tortured.

This new law makes all of us safer.

We need more 'sneaky' preaching

2006-10-13T08:51:00.000-05:00

Sometimes you find the best stories in the most unusual places. Although AlterNet is deriding this film, their article offers inspiration to the true believers.

God does work in mysterious ways.

Exerpt:

Tommy Tenney, a televangelist and author, likes to let his audiences in on a little secret about a new movie based on his novel, Hadassah, a fictionalized account of the Old Testament Book of Esther. Tenney equates the movie, "One Night With the King," with Jesus' parables. It advances an agenda that reveals a hidden truth, even if the audience is unaware of it. As Tenney writes on his website, "'One Night With the King' preaches the Gospel in a subtle and nonconfrontational way. I call it 'sneaky' preaching."

Nuke the North

2006-10-11T09:52:00.000-05:00

No, not the Yankees, the Koreans.

Gotta get them before they get us.

This chick has balls

2006-10-10T10:32:00.000-05:00

Seems the "runaway bride" is accusing her former fiance of stealing money and is suing him.

Let's see, she runs off, lies to to the cops, spends time mowing lawns for the city and has the moxey to sue her former groom-to-be.

Man does she have a pair.

Hail to the National Labor Relations Board

2006-10-04T09:15:00.000-05:00

Ask any small business owner and he'll tell you unions do nothing but drain profits from the company.

Now the National Labor Relations Board is finally doing something about these bloodsuckers.

Hooray!

Go Congress

2006-09-29T10:29:00.000-05:00

They just passed the bill to take care of those stinkin terrorists once and for all. If the libs don't like it they can eat my shorts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Whatever it takes

2006-09-25T09:22:00.000-05:00

The Washington Times is reporting that more troops are heading for Iraq.

The libs will be screaming, but we gotta do what we gotta do to fight the war on terra.

Able Danger Bullsh*t

2006-09-22T10:41:00.000-05:00

Even The New York Times is reporting that the claims made about Able Danger is a crock.

That should be the end of that . . .

Police can't do their job because of ACLU

2006-09-19T10:17:00.000-05:00

Seems that the homeless are camping out on the streets of Los Angeles and the ACLU has won a suit preventing the police from doing their jobs.

Only in America.

Those Fools

2006-09-15T09:09:00.000-05:00

A certain web site, who I won't mention, but whose initials are BuzzFlash, are saying that the Bush Administration has already captured Osama and will announce it just before the election this year.

What garbage!

President Bush and the Republicans don't need no "October Surprise" as the Dems call it. We can beat them with one arm tied behind our backs.

Go Bush!!!

Dem for a day

2006-09-14T13:14:00.000-05:00

Anybody want to be a Democrat for a day. Opportunity for lots of high jinx.

Cheney says we'd do it again

2006-09-11T14:31:00.000-05:00

On NBC's Meet the Press, Vice President Dick Cheney said if the Bush Administration had it to do over again, we would still attack Iraq to get rid of Saddam Hussein.

No doubt Saddam was a bad ass that was threatening the U.S. and had to be taken it.

It has been worth it to make us all safer.

Nuts to you

2006-09-05T13:01:00.000-05:00

Seems that some want us to think our President is not fit to govern.

To that I say, "Nuts."

Experiment

2006-08-30T15:02:00.000-05:00

Got this program called performancing for firefox and am trying it out. Let's see if it works.

Update: As near as I can figure, this software adds the post to your rss or atom feed, but only saves it as a draft on blogger. You still have to go in and edit and save. So what's the purpose? I suppose if you're at work and run across something to add to your blog, you can do it quickly and quietly. Then later log in and publish it.

Don't know if I'm inclined to use it much myself since I'm my own boss, and I'll surely not fire myself over using company time to do a blog post. Oh, well ...

Why not nuke 'em?

2006-08-25T09:41:00.000-05:00

Been gone for a couple of weeks R&R roughing it in the Rockies.

Man how things change.

Israel gets its ass handed to it by a bunch of terrorists, the Brits crack airplane bombing plot, and some Republicans are turning on their own.

But Bush is still in charge, so things are OK.

One thing I did notice is that some are saying out loud what many of us are thinking to ourselves: maybe we ought to consider using our nuclear weapons.

Now Walter E. Williams stops short of calling for their use against countries supporting our enemies, but why should we?

How many times will the US be attacked before the people wake up and decide to use all our weapons to send these fools to their heavenly reward?

Dem attitude treasonous

2006-08-13T08:18:00.000-05:00

I don't usually read liberal garbage spewing, but a friend told me about a post in The Nation blog making fun of security measures put in place after the Brits stopped the latest terrorist plot.

How dare these traitorous liberals!

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: they all need to be in prison! Or worse.

Limeys snag terrorists

2006-08-10T12:56:00.000-05:00

Great job, my Limey Friends.

More ragheads bite the dust. Not enough for me, though.

True American Under Attack

2006-08-05T08:51:00.000-05:00

Stephen Colbert, one of the few true voices of reason and sanity the Liberal Media will let on television, has come under attack by the left-wing crazies at alternet and moveon.

As right-thinking Americans we can't let this go on. Let's all go the their on-line petition and show Mr. Colbert that he does have millions of right-thinking Patriots in his corner!

To arms, my brothers, to arms!

Murtha getting his

2006-08-03T05:44:00.000-05:00

Congressman Jack Murtha is finally getting part what he deserves: a defamation lawsuit by a Marine NCO acccused by "cut and run" Murtha of intentionally killing civilians.

That's not all the traitor deserves, but it's a start.

Army loses another star

2006-08-01T05:15:00.000-05:00

Due to liberal hounding over alleged abuses in the military prisons at Gitmo and Iraq, the army is losing one of its brightest stars, Maj Gen. Geoffrey D. Miller.

Official word is that the Army is "allowing him to retire" which is nothing more than being forced out.

His only crime was that he was "commander of the U.S. detention complex at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, when Pentagon officials selected him to lead a team to improve U.S.-run prisons in Iraq as the insurgency began to mushroom during the summer of 2003," according to published reports.

Another strike against him for the liberals was that he was favored by Don Rumsfeld. Why do we let this hounding of great military minds continue?

Liberals should shut up and let the Pentagon do its job.

FDA says murder is OK

2006-07-31T11:49:00.000-05:00

The Food and Drug Administration is thinking about sanctioning murder of innocents by approving the so-called "morning after pill."

It should be called the "mourning ever after pill" because it kills the unborn.

To IRS: Leave Churches Alone

2006-07-18T09:10:00.000-05:00

According to the left coast rag the Infernal Revenue Service is threatening churches who engage in their right of free speech.

The Revenooers ought to go after tax cheats and leave the God-fearing church men alone.

Wisdom from St. Ann

2006-07-10T09:49:00.000-05:00

Here's the truth from Ann Coulter:

My book makes a stark assertion: Liberalism is a godless religion. Hello! Anyone there? I've leapt beyond calling you traitors and am now calling you GODLESS. Apparently, everybody's cool with that. The fact that liberals are godless is not even a controversial point anymore.

They will all burn in HELL!

Prison for traitors

2006-07-08T09:58:00.000-05:00

Here's a guy shining because he was arrested for protesting at the VA. What'd he expect wearing a shirt like that?

They should've thrown the book at this traitor and put him in prison where he belongs.

Happy Birthday, Mr. President

2006-07-06T05:08:00.000-05:00

... you're doing a heck of a job. Keep it up.

Missle Game

2006-07-05T04:57:00.000-05:00

So, Norht Korea wants to play the missile game, eh?

Well, I'm sure we have a few we can "test fire".

"Git 'er dun."

Battle of Gettysburg

2006-07-03T07:26:00.000-05:00

Today is the anniversary of the end of the three-day battle at Gettysburg in 1863 that gave rise to Lincoln's Gettysburg Address. I hated having to memorze that thing in high school.
