There oughtta be an App for that

Or-
Good news on the copyright infringement trolls.
You remember them? Righthaven- the group that formed to strong-arm payments from bloggers who sent eyeballs to their client sites.
Yeah, well they got slapped with an order to pay $119,488 in attorney's fees and costs in its failed lawsuit against former federal prosecutor Thomas DiBiase.

And they're fixing to get hit with a bigger award from the disgusting site the DU (which will remain linkless)

Now..about that app- someone needs to compile a list of all Righthavens clients so that no blogger accidentally sends them a link.
You know, add a widget to Blogger, so it automatically sends a warning if the link goes to say the Las Vegas Review-Journal....

Watch out Oakland PD

or else suffer the wrath of Pokiemanism

...or something-


AND watch out- he has handcuffs and knows how to use them...

Sorry about not getting the name right Pokie, didn't see the distinctive superhero costume.


,,,Guess mom was washing it that night, huh?

The times, they are a changing

..or not.

But in the spirit of the `60's engendered by the smelly hippies who want the same as the ones leading the DNC did 50 years ago...
Go here and lets start a movement- just stick your head into his comments and say "You can get anything you want at Alice's restUrant..."

Because if I did it, and you do it, and the other people reading this blog do it...we can get noticed- or something.

...And in news that's not

Well, it's not news to anyone with the intelligence greater than a guppy.

Barry's pet Wookie has been in the news more than Laura Bush...chimpyMcHitler.

Because their god complex just won't let them 'not' mention anything they can do to tongue-bathe either one of them.

Well, unless they're hiding a picture like this...

"Not electable" spoke the 'Architect'

The one that ran the election campaign of 2000 and won by a Supreme Court decision.



Right Karl Rove, if he were a Country Club Republican who wanted the same status-quoe as you and the other elders of the RINO party do- you'd have no problem with his mis-statements.

Go try to get Mittens elected as the newest 'Maverick'.

No Joe, you did not

. . .Biden also answered the criticism that he and President Obama have presided over two and a half years of high unemployment figures. “We have brought back jobs. We have brought back or saved over 3 million jobs,” he said, adding that “the fact of the matter is that’s not enough.” Biden defended the current administration’s economic record, saying that “we started with an 8 million job deficit that wasn’t of our making.

Your plastic Chicago Jeezus did not do that.
Steve Jobs is still dead.

A quick EOTWAWKT PSA

This posting in Craigslist reminded me to remind you- or to tell those of you too young to remember "dumb" phones.

The ones that plug directly into the wall...

You see kids, way beck in the dark ages there were telephones that did nothing but make and receive calls. They plugged right into the phone system and had to actually be dialed by hand!
Yes, really!

But what they have over their digital replacements is that as long as the phone system was up, you'd have phone service! you weren't at the mercy of power outages and down time on your broadband.

If you got a dial tone, you could use the phone.


Kinda retro, huh? Being able to use the phone when everything else is out (including cell towers).

It wasn't an "accident"

It was a rule 3 (or 4- depending...) violation: Be sure of your target and what's behind it.

You don't just shoot at movement in the brush when you're hunting.
They should charge the guy with at least negligent homicide.

For your information-
This is a bear

This is a general representation of a Marine in civilian clothing
--actually it's a double shot

But, then again- if you were just taking a 'sound shot' you wouldn't be able to tell, the difference-would you?

Yes, that's my son-in-law on the left.

Layers and layers of oversite and editors?

O-Kay, then...


Which brings you to ask- "What foreign policy successes?"

But according to the sycophants at Al Reuters, President White Guilt has a whole arm long list of them.

Mostly by taking credit for things he was marginally involved in.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Barack Obama delivered on another foreign policy promise on Friday with plans to pull the last U.S. troops from Iraq. But in a re-election campaign all about the weak U.S. economy, he may not get much credit.

Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden, radical Islamic cleric Anwar al-Awlaki and Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi -- these are all dead U.S. opponents that Democrat Obama can claim a measure of credit for getting.

Now add to that Obama's announcement on Friday that the eight-year war in Iraq is ending, fulfilling a campaign goal he made in 2008 when he declared the conflict a misguided mistake by his Republican predecessor, George W. Bush.


Well you could, maybe call Gaddafy -in a way a result of Himself getting us into an illegal war (which if it were Bush would have been protested by you) a plus. But why was he a threat to us? He hadn't done ANYTHING to us since Reagan sent a flight over to shut him up.

As far as al-Awlaki, he was just one of many to get vaporized by a hellfire missile-except that he had a famous name.

Lets talk about the "decisiveness and coolness of character that will help him in 2012,". Do you mean that almost 48 hours worth of dithering and hand wringing before he reluctantly gave the OK to kill Osama?

Now that He's had three years of "smart dipolmacy" under his belt we have:
  • the entire Mid-East heading full tilt to Islamic totalitarianism,
  • Israel and the Palies are farther apart than ever, 
  • there are drougths in our mid-west,
  • satellites are falling out of the sky
  • earthquakes where they never used to be
  • Putin is going to bring back the USSR
  • China is in control of our money

But- HEY! At least he's not George W.  ChimpyMcHitler Bush.

CHANGE!

We can live without.

I just got back from Wally-World after dropping almost $150 on almost all store brand basics.
The shredded cheese I bought for almost $9 was a little over $6 a bag 36 months ago.
The bottom round I didn't buy used to cost less than half of what they want for it now- three years into the hopey-changeyness that is Chicago-on-the-Potomac.
Frozen chicken chunks- more for less.
I am NOT paying $6.50 for a Dominos pizza when I can get delivery for less than that.

Bread. The wheat they don't turn into ethanol is making that $.94 bread grow into $1.26 for the same loaf.
Not to mention the Green Bell peppers that used to be 3/$1 are now $.77each (That's double for all you math scholars out there) in six months- for the same size or less.

I sure am glad Nancy Pelosi gut her minimum wage exemption for Pacific islanders involved in Tuna fishing and canning because at least I can still afford large cans of no-name tuna.

And lastly Mr. Economic Genius- I'm sure Bo the poodle is eating steak and organic vegetables for his meals,while our dogs are getting less for more because a 40LB bag of Ol' Roy (red bag) went from $12 to $17 in your tenure.

GFYS and tell Plugs how to do it, too.

Dad should sell tickets to divorce court

When this C(Sarah Palin word)t tries to get her alimony and child custody from the banker she abandoned to slut around at #OWS.

"But really Judge- I didn't mean those things I said about money up in NYC when I was drugged out and hooking-up with Rami Shamir under those tarps."

The Iraqi quagmire is finally over

Thanks to President Kickass's repeat two step Democrat strategy for ending wars.


Cut-


RUN!


And then leave the resulting Islamist tidal wave to be dealt with by the incoming Republicans.

How many levels of wrong can you see happening here?

The Volunteer State just became the police state with their warrant-less trucking inspections at weigh stations.

Yeah, I can understand the idea behind it, and it does make sense.
BUT- yes it's the companies truck they're searching for bombs and such- But it's YOUR house while you're on the road.

AND they emphasis that if you see something suspicious, then call the Bears.

Nope, don't see how someone getting tailgated by some asshole in a Bimmer (but I repeat myself) then getting their front bumper almost taken off when they cut around to get to the off-ramp in front of you..."Ummm, I swear that Blue Bimmer Lic.#xx-xxx with the dark windows had someone flailing in the back seat..."

There sure is a lot of backslapping about Libya

Considering that it was a French led mission- or that's what we were being told...until President KickAzz

decides to ride it into the ground.

NOW- who's going to be responsible for finding those 20,000 some shoulder fired SAM missiles that are on their way somewhere?

But, at least the world is rid of a brutal dictator who pulled in his claws against America after Reagan swatted his nose with a brace of F-111's thirty years ago.

So now what? Are those Muslim extremists going to be all Kum-Ba-ya with Jews and Christians while becoming a Representative democracy that separates religion from politics...just like in Egypt?

Some how I think we'll regret not having a steady dictatorial hand in the Libyan oil fields.

Just wondering about the 'Tour to Nowhere'

Those buses they're using that are decked out better than my house-

What kind of mileage does the Green president get with them? Without all that armor, they only got like 6 MPG. Now that they're up armored and have all the goodies they must get what? 2MPG?

Are they flying those buses to each venue like they did on the first campaign trip?

How is playing golf every weekend at Andrews AFB not getting away from DeeCee- like you talk about on your campaign stops?

Fox newsradio and me

For the last several days I've been hearing an ad about Broadway bank.This ad has a chirpy teller explaining about new bank fees at a generic bank. The only reason this teller couldn't sound more like Sarah Palin is that she doesn't say "You Betcha!" and I"Look, I can see Russia from my house!"

But then what would you expect from a Chicago Democrat with ties to the most ethical administration EVAR (ver. 2.0)

That is I hear it when I don't have WOAI turned off for the top of the hour FoxNewsRadio and their mandatory Chocolate Jeezus soundbite.
Like I have had to do for each hour of the last 34 months they've been adoring their Chicago messiah.

Yummmm- tastes like iguana

...spit.

So, the iguana (Petunia) likes to eat hanging collard greens, but she can't chew the thick stems - which I throw away.

Karen took them out of the garbage and tossed them to the dogs (who were begging).
Meg, the oldest decided she like them and proceeded to eat a good 8" worth of raw collard green stems.

I'm glad she's not sleeping in my room tonight.

Congratulations San Antonio

With your upcoming light rail vote this week, you will officially become a Liberal city.

Yep, for $180 million you'll have TWO whole miles of traffic clogging empty trains going where people don't want to go.

But this does bring you right up into the Liberal sphere of such prosperous cities as Seattle, Chicago, Las Vegas and all other cities that use tax money for those things citizens are clamoring for.

Now that you decided to make San Antonio into a sanctuary city, we'll no longer need to worry about undocumented migrant workers and their offspring conducting unlicensed pharmaceutical transactions, while ever increasing their unregistered social clubs and liberating vehicles from careless owners so they can punish greedy capitalistic endeavors (and their patrons) while enlivening their surroundings with their street art.

AFK

The new "Walking Dead" is starting now on AMC.

Which character are you?
I'm either Dale or T-Dog.


UPDATE-Semi-spoilers

They just ran into a whole interstate jamming pile of stalled cars, and they're almost out of gas. Why not, after the heard of walkers go past- get the DeWalt cordless and empty as many tanks as they can.

Why is Rick driving an old Suburban without A/C so they have to have the windows down?

I've said it before- if I had to kill a Zed by hand, I wouldn't want to wear that contaminated gore any longer than possible. Especially when there's a creek you're following.

If you're trying to sneak up on a tent that you don't know whats in there- maybe you shouldn't stand right in front of the screen door? Especially if your a redneck crossbow hunter, and you should know better.

I think it'll be better that Shane, at least goes his own way.

Rule FOUR! If you can see the deer (with mossy horns) you can see the kid behind it.
WTF are you hunting with ball ammo for?

When something is not what you say it is

is it lying, or just the phrase du jur?

I've been looking for an unlocked phone on e-bay, and bought an "unlocked" blackberry flip- which wasn't unlocked because it only worked w/ T-mobile affiliated SIM cards.

I just got another message for an "unlocked' phone that only works on Verizon.

Dear kstevenp,

I honestly do not know anything about Airvoice sim cards and as far as I know these phones work with the Verizon network.
Thanks,


...and it took her almost a week to respond.

There's your army Mr. President

Embrace it.

Own it.



UPDATE-
Like Tam said- all we need now is a motivational Veteran and a beer hall...

"Greed, for lack of a better word, is good" -G. Gekko

Looking at these protesters and their union hacks who joined Obama and his Democrats trying to pull down America.
It's time for another poll.

Who is "greedier"?
Students who want you to pay for their $250K worthless degree 
Union thugs who want more money and bennies for less work 
Corporations who sell products to pay their shareholders 
Your grandma who bought stock in corporations- for the interest 
Al Gore and his Carbon Credits   
pollcode.com free polls 

The results of the last poll were pretty much evenly divided between the people who WANT a voice in the primaries 25 @42% and the usual flood of PaulBots 22 @37% with 17% saying not before April and the rest 5% saying it shouldn't start before March.
As usual, you can still vote, but it won't count.

The running dog Republicans want me to vote for this guy?


Seriously?


SERously?
Here's a clue Mittens. ALL guns are leathal when used to kill. So are CARS!




SERIOUSLY??
Mittons, I don't care if you call it a fee, a service charge or closing a loophole- forcing me to pay the government for something it should be doing already IS. A. TAX!

I know the establishment Republicans want Mitt because he's one of them, but I WILL NOT vote for Mitt Romney!

nothing special here

Just someone who really likes their cat.



Well, adores their cat would probably be better...

To the newsreaders and newsblurb writers

I know you were supposed to graduate from J-school with some kind of English use knowledge.

Here's another tool to put on your belt.
It's called a thesaurus!

It will tell you that there are different words that have the same meaning, or be better suited for the story.

REALLY!

That means you can use words other than "scary" for situations other than sudden life threatening situations.




-When you watch a NASCAR wreck, you can say it's alarming, chilling, horrifying...
-When talking about the Gun Runner fiasco (if you ever get around to it)- you can say alarming, shocking, unnerving, worrisome...
-If there are problems with the school bus, how about troublesome, shocking, alarming...


Just get off the SCARY for anything that's not skittles and leprechauns- OK?

#occupysesamest!

Stolen from Joel.

Just a teaser:

Now go.

Well, you have to admit. It would be tempting

For an American ex-pat to put one through her window.


Because MEchelle is always at the top of the peons thought process, even if a Royal Naval Man-of-War is saluting a fallen comrade.

Sorry it ruined your S.African vacation there Mooch.

I was looking for something else entirely

When it hit me-

It's October. The beginning of the Federal fiscal year.
Did the Senate, lead by Harry Reid ever introduce their version of a budget?
Unlike the Pelosi House, the Republicans had one months ago.

How many more years before we see a budget Harry?

SILENCE Citizen!

It is verboden to mention the notoriously thin skinned TSA in any but the terms of utmost respect and awe.


Because we have farging REPUBLICANS putting up bills in the House to re-enforce authority of the TSA and Janet Reno Napolitano.


UPDATE-
I can't comment on my own blog now?

Who expects Janet Reno Napalitanos seriously thin skinned public safety enforcers to "not" go after people making fun of them? Especially when they almost ban a woman from boarding a plane because she has a toy gun on a charm necklace.

It had an assortment of charms on it, one of which was a tiny toy gun, about an inch and a half long.

I kid you not: I was pulled over by a guard when I was at Newark, who was looking at me like I was wearing a cannon around my neck. The next thing I knew I had three security people surrounding me. The only thing going through my head was, “Huh?”

I was being questioned about the bauble, and I tried explaining to a guard that it was a charm and for crying out loud, not a real gun. It’s not like it even had a trigger mechanism that worked. I was dumbfounded.
