It seems like every time we have some kind of meaningful anniversary date- as far as I remember, there has always been a disappointment in the White house.
Remember who was president during our Bicentennial? Jerry Ford was an OK guy, guy, but not someone you'd really want your kid emulating, , , you know?
At the fiftieth anniversary of D-day, our president was the most powerful draft dodger in the world. He was there, with his wife, ordering around white House military personnel like house n1ggers at the time of the WWII victory ceremonies.
At the beginning of this month, we sent- for the first time in 65 years- a representative to apologise because the Japanese forced us to use nukes on them.
AND, next November 11, we have a president who wants a victory mosque overlooking Ground Zero and who made his first year a world-wide apology tour for what America stands for.

Now THAT's reassuring, isn't it?
The same political administration who is surprised monthly by increasing unemployment numbers and bad economic news is reassuring Israel that they don't have anything to worry about from Iran.

Showing again, just how good we have it in America
Is the current recall of some 389,000,000 eggs on the assumption that they might have caused salmonella poisoning in less than 400 people.
Even in the midst of a growing depression we can throw food away.
Because in most of the third world countries (the majority of the population)- they'd be fighting over those same eggs and still be glad that they ONLY had that infinite chance of getting sick from their food.

On a slightly ironic note
We're finally getting all that heat here in San Antonio, that the rest of America has been suffering for the past month.
The heat index was 115. It was even hotter in the trenches when we were putting conduit together.
On a related note to a post at Roberta's, I generally use a pair of lineman's pliers to strip my wire and the bigger stuff (#4 thru 500MCM) we generally use a utility knife.
But then, we're in the business of getting her the raw power to change into pulsed and stepped DC voltage which uses lots of high tech, finicky connectors that make your entertainment so entertaining,

This should be interesting
Since Kalifonia was the leader in virtually banning a legal product in any public accessible area, and even private vehicles.
Are they going to just throw their anti-tobacco legislation out? OR- more likely, they'll ignore that pesky hypocrisy thing all together when they allow dope at work.
It's almost like I'm getting some kind of track record in posting about this cr@p before it happens.

The 8-28 D.C. meet-up
That I keep hearing when I listen to Glen Beck.
I'm not sure what it is exactly because I usually only hear parts of his program.
What he keeps emphasizing, though, is the need to let the ....Parks Dept.(?) know how many buses of people you're bringing.
Supposedly to know how many port-a-johns to order.
I guess that's a quick, handy way to do it (2 per bus times X buses= Y scattered around the Mall).
Why did they decide on buses? Are they so familiar with the old style of the Liberal protest machine that would bus their "spontaneous" crowd in for their anti-republican "Million [your cause here] Marches" that they can't estimate the crowds any way else?
Is that part of the reason the 4th of July Tea Party Protest was so under reported? That most real people don't NEED to be bused in if they really want to be heard/

That you could drive an explosive laden truck through.
If you're underage, you don't need an ID to board a plane- even if you buy a one way ticket with cash.
No word on whether they got scanned or groped- if they weren't exempt because they were underage.

Out of curiosity
Is anyone else having problems loading Grouchy old cripple?
His site has been hard to get on the desktop for about a week now.

Tyranny at the local level
The San Antonio city council (lead by guess which party) is moving forward to enact a ban on a legal product because the Texas Smoke Free Coalition doesn't like it.
I guess it's just smokes because chaw isn't mentioned. It kind of makes sense, because you can't sniff a whiff of Redman a block away- if the wind is just right.
I listened to a vapid spokes girl on a rock station last week talking about how "statistics" show how bad second and third hand smoke is for all living things. She also threw out some random numbers (without references) about how many people will just "DIE" from contact smoke and that people shouldn't be subject to the inconvenience of a stray whiff ofsmoke tobacco smoke.
So, what we get from these anti-tobacco zealots is that second and third-hand smoke is responsible for...DEATHS of THOUSANDS!!!! emphysema, cancer, stroke, lung cancer, Lupus, bad breath, rabies, asthma, strep throat, wrinkles, age spots, dog bites, car wrecks....
I want to know----Smoke Free Coalition of Texas----
What the death rate of the general population was in say 1950 (when almost everyone smoked) as compared to last year. Please break it down into your illnesses divided by first, second or third-hand smoke. You keep citing them, so you obviously aren't pulling numbers out of your @ss -right?
NEXT- Smoke Free Coalition of Texas - I want to ask, given your stand on a legal product that you don't like; what is your take on the Tx Ledge and their loosening restrictions on smoking weed?
I mean, anyone who's smoked Ganja knows how harsh that smoke is, and anything that bad can't be good for you- right?
We know that those burners who will be burning weed aren't going to be sure they're completely alone before lighting up---what about the CHILDREN???? What about me? I could possibly get fired for a contact high.
SPEAKING of intrusive busybodies- in reference to the pic, can you imagine how badly the EPA would be screaming if they did that today? Especially in Texas- with an Obama target on our backs?

Diversity in action
I noticed something in watching this vid of the N.E. bloggershoot over at Jays place:
Aside from all the different smokepoles and shoot'n arns, that I don't think I saw two people with the same ,,,um,,,,form shooting the same weapon.
The only consistent thing I saw was the pistol grips (sort of) and I'd probably be able to tell who got together with 75 of there closest friends to learn how to hit targets one day.
And I'm part of that diverse crowd too, as you can see by my unorthodox pistol grip if you look at the header. Hey, it works for me and I can put a dinner plate over my pattern at 25 yards.

So, remember all the way back to November?
That November of 2008 and then January 2009 when the God-king ascended to his rightful place?
After he got his meaningless prize worth a cool million for what he was going to do. Now with his approval ratings where Bush was after eight years of the Liberal media bashing him daily...
How are those plans going to put his face on Mt. Rushmore going?
Have they found a prominence big enough for his ego yet? Is that the holdup?

Doing the right thing
By now the initial hubbub is dying down about those wikileaks.
Not that there was a whole lot of earth shattering revelations in them, but the fact that names were named is, or should be troubling.
Normally when our covert help was compromised, a caring and competent administration would be scrambling to be sure our informants and their families were safe.
But we have the most bumbling and shortsighted administration in the last 20 years running things now. Do you think anyone has even broached the subject of evacuating those people? Because not only is it right- for their help, at least- but for any future clandestine help that might go south and need reassurance that we won't hang them out to dry.
But I'm not holding my breath on King Barry the Narcissist to do the morally right thing.

Oh! How kewl is that.
The Reverend has a new CD out.
Now to figure out how to make this a ringtone- I should be able to hear that over the backhoe.
Hunny, my Christmas list.

More economic surprises
...Well to our betters in DEECEE and their apparatchiks in the east and Left coasts.
Us ignorant hicks in flyover country aren't surprised at the news, because we don't live in a Liberal echo chamber.
We live with the reality that actions HAVE consequences and the vast majority don't believe in magical Unicorns.

About this Ground Zero mosq
I agree with the sentiment that when a Luthrin church goes up in Mecca, then it's ok.
On the other hand, you have the Dhimmies of the Left saying- "it's NOT on ground Zero. It's blocks away!"
Yeah? How many blocks?

Editorial oversite and fact checking
The MSM haz it and us jammie wearing fools don't.
Because, since I didn't go to "J" skool to learn how to diagram a sentence- I know something is wrong in this report.
Biden was not delayed by the accident, who met with New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg earlier Thursday.
I wonder what the accident and Bloomberg had to say to each other?

Yeah, they lied. Are you gobsmackingly flummoxed by that?

Chesty Puller is rolling over in his grave
And I don't think Pappy Boyington is lying any more peaceful.
Because in this world of promotion by PC, a Marine suggesting the someone needs their @ss kicked is busted in rank and almost deported.
Not that his squad should have beat the sh1t out of a pair of recalcitrant Afghanis, but it's pretty harsh for a cadre who even today commits verbal, mental and physical abuse against their own booters (SiL was telling about the full body kicks by his Dis in formation,,,among other things...before he knew he wasn't supposed to talk out of school).
Cpl. Ahmad Siddiqi, who speaks Pashto, was questioning a suspect in Farah province, Afghanistan, in 2009 when the suspect verbally threatened him. Siddiqi got angry and made an off-the-cuff comment to two of his fellow squad members over the radio that landed several Marines in the brig.
“Hey, you guys need to come beat this guy up,” he said.
And they did.
Siddiqi’s careless suggestion was not an order, though, because he was not in charge.
But when his buddies came over to Siddiqi’s position, their squad leader surprised them by giving his nod to the idea, assuring the two Marines they would not get in trouble for the beating.
But they did. And so did Siddiqi for merely suggesting it.

The Mossberg M500
It's like they're aiming to be the F-150 of the shotgun world.
In addition to the evil black ninja M500 we find a rifled 20GA version for long range goblin hunting and a way for the ladies to be designer co-ordinated when at the range or defending their homes.
If you prefer a shortstroke action, we have the M510 with an 18" barrel.

The way it looks
...Is that I'm #1 in the Liberal Google image search for Chelsea Clinton nipples because of a post I threw up two and a half years ago.
And the fact that George Soros is financing her wedding today.
If you're going to perv an ex presidents daughter, look for one who didn't inhearit the worse facial features of both parents- you know?

Throwing good money after bad
No, I'm not talking about the trillions of dollars wasted on the Lightweights so called stimulus plan.
But some of the money waste probably came from there, too as some kind of political payback to the abortion industry in the guise of Embryonic Stem Cell Research. This HUGE deal the Libs made of the advances they could make by using dead babys to cure ailments in adults, except they just can't get it to work right.
Even though there are currently many successful treatments using adult stem cells with out massive amounts of your tax money being thrown down sewer.

It's what's for dinner!

No post for you!
I just got another round of shots in my elbow and it hurts worse than when they split my left arm open to repair some nerve damage.
I have to go in for a meeting and to look at a difficult job, then it's Darvocets for me.
Hurry up five o'clock.

Ten years ago
You knew Bill Clinton was lying because he was talking.
Today we know that whenever Prez Kickass is saying something we're supposed to "suspend our disbelief" (thanks Hil).
The difference is that Slick Willy knew you knew he was lying and it was a wink, nudge and lets get on to other things kind of lie.
The Narcissist in Chief expects you to believe everything he says, no matter how many times hes' been caught in a lie.
Bill Clinton grew up poor and is glorifying in his new found wealth.
The Obaminator is failing his 'I feel you pain' moment:
Obama says the first couple is "not that far removed from what most Americans are going through." He tells the network "it was just a few years ago that we had high credit card balances, we had two kids, thinking about college. We had our own retirement accounts, wondering if we were going to be able to get enough assets in there."
...And you paid off those credit card bills with your fist book advance and Michelle's no-show job.
...Your kids thinking of college were what- five and seven at the time?
...You don't need to worry about your retirement now, with your state and Federal pensions enshrined in stone.
Jezus, the guy can't even play off being average believably.

A tale of two presidents
On the one hand, we have the CEO of a multinational company that's historically been demonized by the Liberal media -one Tony Hayward of BP who has worked almost continually from day ONE to correct a massive problem his company caused
On the other hand is the media darling - our own Barack Obama who only turned his Lazerlike focus on the gulf problem after being called out by the gibbering idiot James Carvel two months into the problem -interrupting at least one golf outing in the process of making a photo op off the golf course.
Now BP Tony is out and Prez Kickass is taking a break from showing Americans that they can relax and still be focused on fixing the problems buy taking another vacation.

A question for any Liberals
that may happen to find their way here....
When this hits our health care system...is there going to be a sekrit codeword you can put on your admitting papers to let them know you voted for Obama?
That way they'll take a little better care of you than normal or scoot you up half way in line to just after the ones they owe favors to.
