Greedy Like a School

The drive of greed is obviously alive and well all throughout the world we live in.  Consider American Airlines and their proud announcement of Express Seating.  This feature will allow passengers to pay an additional $19 to $39 to sit in the first few rows of coach.  They will also be in the first group to board.  We just got used to the idea of paying a fee for the first bag, and more for any subsequent bag.  But that wasn't enough to satisfy the greed, was it?  Now they want to charge more for some of the seats in 'cattle coach' and they justify it by calling these seats express.  This certainly sounds like an Obama initiative.

American Airlines greed reminds me of what school systems all across the country are doing this week.  The ever increasing school levees are not enough.  Now parents not only have to pay all kinds of additional fees, but they also must stock the supply cabinet. 

In both of these scenarios, there is no mechanism to check the greed, so greed marches forward.

Obama's Grade Card

They say 'a picture is worth a thousand words' and it is really true when you look at Obama's grade card as president.  This chart is from the Gallup poll dated August 16, 2010.

Obama is seeing new lows and the link to the article is below.  I have included here the chart that shows Obama's crash according to political party.  So what does it show?

Democrats barely get it, just starting to catch on.

Independents seem to have had the greatest awakening, and this is most critical for elections.

Republicans obviously want to get rid of Obama, but it is sad how many were totally duped in the beginning. Of course there are a lot of RINO's and moderates that should not be counted among the Republicans.

New Lows in Job Approval

Even the Democrats

Even the Democrats that went on and on with Obama praises during the election can clearly see how inept and inadequate this little guy is for the Office of the President.  The article referenced below is so typical of democrats and it is actually quite hilarious when you think about it.

Maureen Dowd, liberal New York Times reporter who does not like Republicans and often criticized President G.W. Bush, is calling for George W. Bush to speak out on the Mosque issue.  Dowd is of course for the Mosque - being obsessed with multi-cultural support of immigrants and terrorists.  She says that Bush understands better than Obama the connection between the war on terror and the larger question of America's relationship with Islam.  For many years democrats have told the American people there is no war on terror, so what is she talking about.

Dowd also said she finds it "odd" that Obama seems less sure on the matter.  That is really odd when you consider that Obama is a Muslim.  The problem is when the african muslim attempts to act like a true American.  The act is just too much to pull off.

Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson is also calling for G.W. Bush and Peter Beinart, former editor of New Republic, says he pines for GW Bush.

I know the above is hard to believe, so you can follow the link and read it for yourself.  The amazing thing is how it puts in black and white right before our faces that Obama is worthless as a President.

Mosque supporters beg George W. Bush

My Private Blog

Looking on the bright side, one of the nice things about my This 'n That blog is that it is very private.  I can record whatever I want here and I am practically guaranteed that no one will see it.  It is a very rare thing that I have a visitor, so I am pretty safe.  How rare?  Let's say I have a better chance of winning a mega jackpot of money in the lottery.

So, I guess, to broaden my scope, I can start recording any of my most deep dark secrets here.  Did you know that I was thinking about ___?  I can tell people what I think of you and all the secrets you have told me.  I can tell everyone what you have done, even though you did not know I was 'in the know'.  I might even make up some nasty jokes about your mother.  Oops!

So many juicy tidbits are available and I won't even have to make them up.

Get ready to have all of this going on behind your back and out of your view.  Just because you won't read my blog!

Strong Opposition to the Mosque

Muslims must be defeated in their attempt to ram their mosque down our throats. Have we forgotten the act of war and terrorism that was thrust upon our country on 9/11? Those who are really Americans and care about this country have not forgotten. Together, they will stand as an army, ready to fight the notion that the bull crap of multicultural diversity and political correctness is enough reason to allow the enemy to erect a victory monument at Ground Zero. Oppose the Mosque! Oppose Obama and Pelosi! Oppose any Muslim who wants this! Oppose any politician who throws their support to the enemy! Investigate the liberal democrats and socialists trying to destroy the United States of American. It is time for Revolutionary thinking. We must fight for what is right. We must oppose the mosque! We must tear down the notion that we must bow down to the terrorist who practice hate and destruction. They who call us infidels want us to show them tolerance. Declare war on such nonsense. Tear down the idea of a mosque to celebrate terrorism. Impeach the little man in the White House. Knock the Mosque down on his head!



Grave-Side Service

You might find this interesting!

As a bagpiper, I play many gigs. Recently I was asked by a funeral

director to play at a grave side service for a homeless man.
He had no family or friends, so the service was to be at a pauper's
cemetery in the Kentucky back-country.

As I was not familiar with the backwoods, I got lost; and being a typical
man I didn't stop for directions. I finally arrived an hour late and saw
the funeral guy had evidently gone and the hearse was nowhere in sight.

There were only the diggers and crew left and they were eating lunch. I
felt badly and apologized to the men for being late. I went to the side of
the grave and looked down and the vault lid was already in place. I didn't
know what else to do, so I started to play.

The workers put down their lunches and began to gather around. I played
out my heart and soul for this man with no family and friends. I played
like I've never played before for this homeless man.

And as I played 'Amazing Grace,' the workers began to weep. They wept, I
wept, we all wept together. When I finished I packed up my bagpipes and
started for my car. Though my head hung low my heart was full.

As I was opening the door to my car, I heard one of the workers say, "I
never seen nothin' like that before and I've been putting in septic tanks
for twenty years."

Why can't men just ask for directions?

Obama Shames America

Have you felt the shame and embarrassment when Obama represents our country very poorly.  I have.  He is a disgrace and he cares not who it affects.  When he is focused on his domestic role, he is more focused on self-praise and demanding his own way.

When the worst president ever has a foreign audience he has on many occasions made it clear that he is ashamed of the way our country has conducted itself and is seeking other countries to forgive us.  He does not acknowledge how great our country is and has been in the past.

Of course this is totally expected from a president who has been steeped in Marxist communism, socialism and anti-Americanism.

Mike has written a nice article with plenty of examples to jog your memory.


Apology for Obama

Obama's Big Lie

Obama got elected on the big promise of Hope and Change.  As long as he has been in office, I'm not sure he has improved any one's situation, except a few of his closest buddies (and Michelle).  Rather his is creating an unbelievable debt load for the tax payers to struggle under.  This picture is quite telling - in between you and the man of hope and change, is his fist, by which he demands his own way, regardless of what it does to the people.

If he had any integrity at all, he would resign and take flappin' Joe with him!


How to Read Obama on Ground Zero

Given enough time, Obama will appear to make conflicting statements about an issue.  He thinks by doing this he keeps the people guessing and will keep himself out of trouble.  Thinking people can see right through his scam!

Obama's first statement on an issue is the one you can typically rely on, especially if he says it with resolve.  Last Friday he made a strong statement regarding the Muslim mosque proposed for ground zero:

"Let me be clear:  As a citizen and as President I believe that Muslims have the same right...to build a place of worship and a community center on private property in Lower Manhattan"

Sometimes his first statement is just spoken from his heart, without a lot of for-thought and planning.  Other times, the statement is well thought out and he is proposing the way he wants thing to be.  If their is a negative response from the public, then he will make a conflicting/confusing statement and try to hide his actual intentions.  He will stand by his original statement if there is no negative response from the public (or the public he cares about at the time.)

If there is any lingering doubt, consider these quotes:

Mahmoud al-Zahar (leader of Hams, terrorist organization):  said Muslims 'have to build everywhere' so that followers can pray, just like Christians and Jews build their places of worship.

Muslims pray with bombs, so I think they can build elsewhere.

Developer Sharif el-Gamal said:  "We are deeply moved and tremendously grateful for our President's words."

I say it is time for many Americans to get deeply moved!

Muslims have their rights, too.

Really?  Do they?  Are you saying that any group that comes to the United States can have whatever they want because it is their right?  I would say not in this case, for the following reasons:

Muslims were responsible for the 9/11 terrorist attacks.  There is no doubt about that.  Ah, but you say that was just a few extremists, and that Muslims are peace loving.  Muslims have been at war with Israel for centuries.  How is the peace thing working?  The so-called moderate Muslims have chosen not to voice  opposition to the 9/11 attacks, and polls at that time indicated 40% of Muslims were supportive.

Muslims are here looking to build a Muslim country.  They have no desire to be Americans, for Americans are infidels that deserve death.  Muslims are also making it quite clear that they have no respect for Americans or people of other faiths.  They declare that it is their right to build a mosque where ever they want, and if you don't like it, screw you!

Obama's Free Gift to Muslims

Obama (the first African President of the U.S.) has once again made it obvious that 'once a Muslim, always a Muslim' applies to him.  This past weekend (as he was celebrating Ramadan) he voiced his strong support of building a mosque near Ground Zero.  If this mosque is built, it will be a real slap in the face for America.

Muslims are already rejoicing that they pulled off the 911 attacks.  What better way to increase their boasting than to build a Muslim mosque at the same location!  This would be really convenient for the next cell group with New York as their target!

Obama needs to go to Africa, 'the land that he loves'.

More on the Bad Assumption

In my previous post, I talked about the erroneous assumption that leads people to expect proportional representation in any group of people they observe. Thomas Sowell has written an excellent article on this and I am sharing a few key points for you to consider.
Here are some examples:

If you watch football, you have often seen black players score touchdowns, but probably have never seen a black player kick an extra point. Is there a reason that teams do not want minority players to kick the extra point?

In basketball, blacks are clearly overrepresented and whites underrepresented. Is this a bit of racial scheming by blacks to control the game?

Government regulation of the housing market was increased when statistics showed that blacks were turned down for mortgages more often than whites. The scream of racism went throughout the land and some really bad decisions were made to ‘fix’ the problem.  However they cherry picked the facts they wanted to see, and failed to mention these:
- whites were turned down more often than Asians

- black-owned banks also turned down blacks more often than whites

- credit scores differed from group to group

Thomas Sowell has this sharp concluding statement: “The bean-counters are everywhere pushing the idea that differences show injustices committed by society. As long as we keep buying it, they will keep selling it – and the polarization they create will sell this country down the river.”

Don’t let baloney guide your thinking.

Bean-Counters and Baloney

This Bad Assumption about Race

An article by Thomas Sowell shows clearly how people get the wrong idea when they adopt a wrong assumption to start with.

This is the wrong assumption that people are making, “that different races, sexes, and other subdivisions would be proportionately represented in institutions, occupations, and income brackets if there were not something strange or sinister going on.”

If a person has adopted this assumption into their thinking, they will be the first to speak up if their ‘type’ of person is not represented in a group of people in accord with overall representation in the population. This erroneous thinking is the foundation of ‘token’ mentality and people attempting to use the race card.

The New York Times is one example of media that wants to feed off the race issue, so they find amazing stats like this:

Baseball coaches from minority groups are more often coaching at first base than third base. Also third base coaches become managers more often first base coaches. The implication is that managers are more often selected out of the pool that has fewer minorities. Is there something strange or sinister going on?

Are we to then think that maybe all 9 positions on the baseball team are being populated according to race?

More on this topic in my next post.

From that other blog

Just for the fun of it, here are the last two things I posted on BlogEvolve, a community blog.  The first is a sister to a post here, the second is unique.

Street View, Literally

Over the years there have been numerous discussions about the 'Street View' feature of Google Maps.  There has been concern that the Google van equipped with special cameras was recording too much as it moved down the street.  Recently in Worcester, United Kingdom, the 'Street View' camera picked up much more than the neighborhood.  The cameras actually recorded the body of a 10 year old girl lying on the street.  Is she dead?


Fortunately, the girl was not dead, or even hurt.  Her and a friend had been playing and she had the fleeting thought to lay down and pretend she was dead.  It was at that point that the Google van drove by.  Turns out the girl didn't think anything of the vehicle she heard driving by.  Neither did she know her picture had been taken.

Azura, the girl,  said: ‘I didn’t know anything about the Google Street View car (recording me). I fell over while I was playing with my friend and thought it would be funny to play dead.  ‘I’m quite chuffed I’m on the Internet. It is quite funny and I can’t wait to tell my classmates when I go back to school.’

Bloomberg wants to forget!

You may have seen in the news that New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg wants to build a Muslim mosque very close to Ground Zero. Liberal democrats seem to like this multicultural inclusivity, but most Americans find it appalling.

This sign for a bus ad campaign in New York was rejected.



When asked about the rejection, CBS Outdoor stated "images of 911 were not allowed." In a series of compromise revisions, the plane, smoke and flames were removed. Then the plane was put back in, but far from the building.

This exercise in censorship led to Freedom Defense Initiative filing a lawsuit against the city of New York. It was the Metropolitan Transit Authority that in the end refused the campaign because it contained 911 images.

Eventually, The MTA woke up and the jihad against free speech was stopped. The ad ran as originally designed.

As we approach September, it will be so important to post plenty of true 911 pictures so people like Bloomberg cannot squelch the truth.

The First Jock

The worthlessness of Obama continues to manifest itself in new ways. According to the liberal, Obama-loving Washington Post:

Quote begins:
"You must always remember that the president is about 6."

This advice was offered more than 100 years ago by a British friend of Teddy Roosevelt's. The nation has matured since then, and so has the presidency. Now the president is about 12.

While President Obama's wife and younger daughter were conducting international relations in Majorca on Sunday with Spain's King Juan Carlos and Queen Sofia, the commander in chief was at home hosting a fantasy camp for himself. He and his buddies had a birthday weekend barbecue and basketball game with LeBron James, Alonzo Mourning, Magic Johnson and other legends of the sport.

The day before, it was a four-hour golf outing for Obama and the boys. On Monday, he hosted the Super Bowl champion New Orleans Saints at the White House and talked about his own exploits on the gridiron last year with Saints quarterback Drew Brees. "He tossed me a nice tight spiral that I then lateraled to a kid on [Dallas Cowboys linebacker] DeMarcus Ware's shoulders," the president recalled. "I also want to point out I beat [Pittsburgh Steelers safety] Troy Polamalu over the middle on that throw." Obama turned to Brees. "You remember?"
Quote ends.

I suspect First Jock barely puts in a 40 hour week. Come the weekend, he has not a care in the world as Michelle and he spend our tax dollars on their pleasure. Definitely time to oust this loser!

Experience Asperger's Syndrome

Consider reading:

"House Rules" by Jodi Picoult

This book paints a realistic picture of life with Asperger's Syndrome. The fact that A.S. leads to a murder mystery will keep you pulled in. Here is the brief description from the library:

"With Asperger's syndrome, teenager Jacob Hunt is unable to have the same kind of social life other boys his age have. However, like other kids with AS, he has homed in on one particular interest: forensic analysis. He normally shows up to crime scenes and helps solve the case, but this time he is the prime suspect. When a murder leads police to question Jacob, they interpret his AS symptoms as a sign of guilt and cast a very public spotlight on Jacob and his family."

To Marinate a Cat

Let's just suppose you were going to eat your cat, and you thought that marinating would make the treat even more delectable. How would you do it? What would you marinate it with? Oh, by the way, you marinate the cat before it's dead. At least in Buffalo that is how they do it.

Sick, weird, disturbed or violent? Maybe all of the above.

Worthwhile Bumper Sticker

I liked the bumper sticker I saw today:

"I'll honor your president just like you honored mine!"

For eight years, democrats said the most nasty and dis-respectful things about President George Bush. Most of it was lies, which is why we saw it in the mainstream media every night.

So, what are the chances that a reasonable American citizen would honor Osama Obama, the first african president of the USA? Cannot imagine it ever happening, since he has clearly demonstrated that he knows nothing. Spouting campaign lies is all the community organizer has done and continues to do. Get Rid Of The Loser!

Giving Blood

One reason you might give blood to another person is that you are dead - tends to lower your resistance to any previous phobias.

Mauricio Mendez Lopez, 42 from Bartow, Fla has acknowledged drinking the blood of his brother, but does not remember what else happened. In a nutshell, the two men were fighting about one woman until a 15 pound dumbbell connected with the head of one of the men. The three are related to each other. Cruz did not die until Lopez came back later and stabbed him to death.

The woman later reported to the police "Lopez left with a plastic cup in his hand that appeared to hold blood. She said he drank from the cup in a strange ritual from their native Mexico.

All three adults are reported to be illegal immigrants. No doubt, Obama and Michelle (when she is broke in Spain) will do everything they can to promote these three up to the Whitehouse, or maybe the Supreme Court.

Which One Is The Wife?

When Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi get to celebrating the dumping of Proposition 8 by a gay judge, Portia becomes the wife. I guess that means Ellen is the husband.

In a bizarre, anti-feminist move, Portia de Rossi is taking the name of her beloved and becoming Portia Lee James DeGeneres.

What do you think of that?

Kagan Analogy



Elena Kagan approved for the U.S. Supreme Court - I can help you understnad this.

Elena Kagan being chosen as a Supreme Court Justice is equivalent to Obama winning the Nobel Peace Prize. Both decisions unbelievably ridiculus, and yet standard operating procedure for the Obama administration.

Obama, Birthday and the Giraffe


Those in the Obama cult (Organizing for America) are celebrating his birthday today. Of course, without a birth certificate, noone really knows. Forty nine years old and he is probably the most famous community organizer to hit the planet. As I was pondering why I was not celebrating this remarkable day, I came across an article about a baby giraffe being born in a zoo.

With little effort I found these similarities between Obama and a baby giraffe.

1. Long neck. One by nature's design, the other because of a mega-dose of pride and arrogance.

2. Wobbly legs. Obama's time as President has only confirmed what half the country knew even before he was elected - he is weak and wobbly as President. True Americans can find no reason to follow the first African president, for his lack of integrity and principles means he could topple at any time.

3. Spots. The giraffe has spots and markings, so does Obama. A leopard cannot change his spots, and neither can Obama. His spots were formed as an anti-American socialist longing for communism to rule the U.S. He and his wife despise the U.S. no less today than they did back then.

My apologies to the baby giraffe. Hopefully the emotional wounds inflicted by this comparison will heal quickly!

Meet Maxine Waters


Commentator Michelle Malkin has nicely captured Maxine Waters in this introduction:

"Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters of California is notorious for her high decibel rants against corporate executives and career exploitation of identity politics. Class warfare and racial division are her two-decade-long stock and trade. She would normally be first in line (and in front of the cameras) to lambaste the very kind of Porsche-driving, luxury beach house-partying bank officials who begged her for a government handout. If they were white, that is."

Creative Refreshments

This is ironic. I just went to get a cup of coffee, and I noticed that the company name on the coffee pot is 'Creative Refreshments'. Now, what do you think about that? Can you think of any refreshment more 'creative' than a cup of old coffee, which isn't much better when freshly brewed. What are they thinking?

Coffee - caffeine first, taste second!

The Cojones Factor

In a recent speech, Sarah Palin made this statement:

“Jan Brewer has the cojones that our president does not have. If our own president will not enforce our federal law, more power to Jan.”

Most people understand what Sarah Palin was saying, and she is absolutely correct. To ‘have the cojones’ means to have the backbone, grit, guts, moxi, sand or gumption to do the right thing; to do what needs to be done.

Obama is nothing more than a weenie, and is concerned only about his own well being. Jan Brewer, Governor of Arizona, is doing what she needs to do to manage the illegal immigrant problem that is right on her door step. By the way, she is also enforcing existing Federal Law. Consider how many Federal employees we pay in the area of law enforcement, and yet they are not willing to do what Jan Brewer is doing.

Three cheers for Sarah Palin and Jan Brewer! Obama should go away and never come back!

Actually, that is not what I am writing about, though. I was thinking about a lady like Sarah Palin using the term ‘cojones’. The word is Spanish for testicles and previously would have been considered somewhat vulgar or offensive for public conversation. The earlier American version of the expression was to say that someone does not ‘have the balls’ to do something. Once again, this is an expression that most women would not be comfortable using.

As happens sometimes, a word is used and eventually develops its own meaning. Thus, when a woman uses the term ‘cojones’ in conversation and does not even blush or wince, you can assume she is not thinking of testicles.

I have been equally surprised by another expression that women use in conversation, and that is ‘brown nose’. The historical implication of that expression is clear and for a woman to casually use it means it has taken on a new interpretation.

Maybe you know of another example.

Shall We Make BP Suffer?

Now that the BP oil release has been capped and most of the oil either cleaned up or lost to sea, we can get down to the important issue of how much penalty should be paid by BP. What do you say? Shall we drain them dry?

The minds of many Americans are captivated by the liberal agenda and the propaganda they are fed daily by the democrats and the mainstream media. This propaganda boldly declares big business as evil and would love to see it crumble.

This is one strategy, for sure, and the agenda is at least in part to prevent another such disaster. But we do not want to miss the fact that blame does not lie totally with BP. EPA is charged with the responsibility to oversee oil handling activities in our waterways. EPA has at sometime in the past approved the spill contingency plan that states the planned response to a major release. Why did EPA not do their job right, and why are people not asking how we can punish the EPA?

In addition, we must note that BP funded and led the charge throughout this cleanup – not EPA. I think BP has been punished enough.

(No, I do not have any BP stock!)

A Dusty Conclusion

This issue partly caught my eye because it is an excellent example of what is wrong with not only EPA, but also most of big government. In a suit of arrogance and powered by an ego-driven engine, EPA believes they are big enough to change anything they choose. This obnoxious confidence in who they think they are leads them to create laws and regulations before they have any solid ideas for how to meet the new standards. This cart-before-the-horse approach causes a lot of confusion and wastes tons of resources.

EPA is way out of their league on this one.

As usual, we must wait to see what happens.

Can We Beat Dusty?

Tell me, if you can, exactly how will U.S. EPA reduce the amount of particulate leaving a farm? In one of the earlier pieces of this series I mentioned the control of dust at manufacturing facilities. Consider these standard approaches for controlling dust on a smaller scale:

1. spraying a parking lot or roadway with water at least once a day, and possibly more.
2. using water mixed with an organic emulsion to spray the dusty area (use of oil or petroleum products is no longer legal).
3. paving the area
4. reducing the speed of all vehicles that travel the dusty area, so less particulate is kicked up

That is about the extent of available dust control methods. You tell me, which of these is in any way possible for a farm?

By the way, there is a reason that soybeans are harvested when they are dry. If they are not dry, they will have to be dried prior to storage. (Think of the carbon emissions!)

Let EPA Take On Dusty

At this point, those representing the farming community are not making noise about the cost of determining current ambient concentrations. They are more concerned about the effect caused by approving the new lower ambient air quality standard. Once the new standards are approved, EPA will be required by law to demonstrate where the standards are being met and where not. This new standard could potentially create the scenario where a county that has never exceeded an ambient air quality standard, is now non-attainment for particulate.

EPA will need to determine what areas of the country do not meet the new standard. Then it will determine who is contributing to the excess of particulate emissions and develop programs to bring the particulate concentration below the final standard.

Farmers are quite smart to not want EPA to have this control!

How Dusty Am I?

When farmers hear of the proposed regulation, no doubt they wonder where they stand with regard to the new standard. Are they already generating dust at a level that exceeds the standard? Or, do they have nothing to worry about? Maybe they almost meet the new standard, but not quite.

How can they find out? The concentration of particulate in the ambient air leaving their farm is most likely determined in one of two ways:

1. The most direct approach is to use ambient air sampling equipment to measure the concentration of particulate leaving the farm. This ambient monitoring program must take into account variable wind conditions, and also variability of activity on the farm. Ultimately you want to prove that the ‘most dusty’ conditions still meet the ambient air quality standard.
2. The second approach may not be so obvious. It involves running air dispersion computer models. Necessary input data includes information about the property, wind conditions, level of activity on the farm and days with rainfall. Other parameters may also be required to represent real world conditions to the computer model. The computer model is run and generates a grid of anticipated high ambient concentrations.

Both of these methods will cost the farmer money, and I am not talking pocket change. Is this really a good idea?

Define Dusty

So how dusty is too dusty? Exactly what is the EPA proposal that has farmers concerned?

According to the letter from the 21 Senators, the issue involves EPA’s current review of the NAAQS (national ambient air quality standard) for particulate. The Clean Air Act requires an EPA review of these air quality standards every 5 years. The air quality standard is the benchmark that determines the amount of particulate matter allowable before generating health concerns.

The existing NAAQS for particulate is 150 ug/M3. That is micro-grams of particulate per cubic meter of air. EPA’s recent proposal involves reducing this standard to 65 – 85 ug/M3, making the new standard twice as stringent as the old.

Big Dusty Deal or Not?

So what do you think about the EPA intending to control the dust generated on farms?

When dust is kicked up on a farm, some of the particles are large enough they will settle out and fall back to the ground. The concern for EPA is the smaller particles that remain airborne and eventually become part of the air you and I breathe. The inhalation of particles from all kinds of sources is proving to be more of a health concern. Shall we all agree that the EPA is on the right track?

Maybe not. A letter addressed to Lisa Jackson, US EPA Administrator is contains this statement: “We respect efforts for a clean and healthy environment, but not at the expense of common sense.” This letter is signed by 21 of the U.S. Senators.

Don’t pitch your common sense just yet!

Dusty is the Farmer?

Apparently the U.S. EPA is giving consideration as to how they can crackdown on farm dust. Farm dust can be generated by livestock walking, the harvesting of soybeans on a dry day or a vehicle driving on a gravel road. These and similar activities occur frequently on any working farm.

Many who have worked in industry have experienced how hard it is to control dust from a parking lot or material handling operation. That is absolutely peanuts compared to controlling dust from farm activities!

Undecided

It has been over a year since I posted on this blog. Life is always changing and my blogging interests have changed. Remembering how much I have enjoyed blogging in the past, I have often wanted to start again, but I have a problem. It is a simple problem, not complicated. It is just so hard for me to decide what to write about and what kind of blog I want to have. Much of what I wrote in the past was fueled by passion about the politics of our country. My core beliefs on that situation have not changed, but I am not so inclined to spend time on it these days. The current President, although the politically correct skin color, is so worthless as an individual as a president that I could just puke! See, you got me going again.

So, if you do not want me to rant and rave about Obama and the worthless politicians running this country, give me another idea.

Have a nice day.

When you send a boy ...

So now we have a man of little wisdom, intelligence or experience talking to our enemies. What good can come out of this? Has the world been waiting for a 'community organizer' to bring peace to one and all?

Today, B. Hussein gets to flappin' on Arab TV, trying to build wonderful relations between the U.S. and the Muslim World.

Of course the first item of business is to apologize for the nasty U.S. Twenty or thirty years ago we used to be so close in relations, but then the U.S. was bad.

Secondly, Obama attacks the Muslim faith! That's right. B. Hussein is telling the Arab world that the white infidels are actually their friends, they just don't realize it. If they believe the black one, then they will have to get all new text books for their schools.

'Kill the infidels' is a key component of their religion. Who is B. Hussein to tell them differently? (It could be that black panther leftists, like obama get really confused on these issues.)

I suppose this is a practice run for the upcoming negotiation with Iran. They must be our friends too, right?

Armed with the 'audacity of hope', we should not give up our dream about the day obama gets his head out of his butt and wakes up. It's just too bad he is in the Whitehouse.

By the way, when is the last time you heard anyone of Muslim faith apologize for 911?

My President is Black!

Oh such a glorious age we live in!

My President is Black

(dumber than shit, but at least he is black)

obama hussein, the 'mother of all tokens'


My President is Black

obama's double talk

If you listen carefully to what obama says, he usually tries to talk both sides of an issue when he talks. Here is one example:

In the beginning of the article, the black one is quoted as saying, "Let me be clear: Our goal is not to further burden an already struggling industry."

He then goes on to say how the government is going to force automobile manufacturer's to improve fuel efficiency. President Bush had already shown that the 2007 law calling for these new fuel standards will cost at least $100 billion. As long as it looks 'green', the black one doesn't care what it cost the taxpayer and consumer.

What I cannot figure out is why O. Hussein doesn't just hire 500,000 terrorists and illegal immigrants to check tire pressure. During the campaign - inflating tires was determined to be the ultimate energy fix?

Carol Browner is a Socialist Pig

Turns out that incoming White House energy-environment czar Carol Browner is a socialist pig. It was recently learned that she is a commissioner in Socialist International.

Socialist International is an anti-capitalistic political cause. They favor the nationalization of industry, are skeptical of the benefits of economic growth and want to establish a more "equitable international economic order." Of course, this is exactly the same anti-American agenda that Obama and his left wing radicals are committed to. They long to tear down the United States until it is equal with the small third world countries. This is stupid, and infuriating, for sure.

Browner, head of EPA during the Clinton years, is a strong proponent of utility decoupling. This allows utilities to produce less electricity (thus less emissions) and still make the same profit. The extra funding is from the tax payer and through higher electricity rates.

This is the kind of crap Obama will continuously try pull on Americans. We have to catch him at every turn and nail his little black butt to the wall!

Historic Obama Plate

Break the piggy bank, sell the car (or kids) - whatever it takes?

Collect a piece of history, buy the stupid plate!

Simple Instructions:

1. Buy the plate, rejoicing that this is $10 of your money Obama won't get.
2. Paint the entire center of the plate black - it is the color of hope and audacity.
3. Put the plate somewhere it will receive all the honor due it.

So order the victory plate and get started!

Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean

Many conservatives were hoping that President Bush would commute the prison sentences of the two former U.S. Border Patrol agents before he left office. It would have been wrong of him not do it.

Without going into all the details, I do not dispute that there was some wrong doing on the part of the agents. On the other hand, for the government and President Bush to implement screwed up liberal justice policy was far worse. They bent over backwards to protect the criminal, while making it clear that the two border patrol agents had no rights. This is not unique - it is happening to law enforcement and military personnel all the time. It will only get worse until someone squashes the liberal agenda.

I am happy for these two men who will be able to return to their families in about two months. It has been a very long and hard road. Too bad President Bush didn't have the courage to act sooner than this.

Have You Had Enough?

Black, Negro, Black, Negro!

Have you had enough? If you are not going to worship at the alter of skin color, then let us know so we can pull the plug on this nonsense.

I already knew that Obama was a token; hired only because of his skin color. Why does all the media have to keep regurgitating this perversion of the Presidency?

Today is MLK day - the instigator of riots and destruction? Am I marching? You bet I'm marching - away from my TV so I don't have to listen to it.

Tomorrow is Obamathon Innaugaration day. You have my permission to blow it off. It's just $150,000,000 million tax dollars being flushed. Anything you do tomorrow that ignores the black hoopla and puts Obama down will be the better thing.

Throngs Cheer Obama Train

Well, this is the big week, right. The week when you see enough of the BLACK president that you are prone to puke. Been awhile since I posted here, but I thought in these dire times, I should be putting some of my thoughts down.

The guiding principle for this week: Whenever you see Obama and historic used in the same paragraph, know that historic means black. There is nothing historic about the political thug from Chicago other than his skin color.

Sorry, but we have to face the truth.

Hey women - how far would you go? How low would you stoop? Would you let Obama Hussein slobber on you?

How gross!

Culture of Corruption

Following the Mark Foley (Rep - Florida) sex scandal with text messages, the democrats screamed relentlessly about the Republican 'culture of corruption' and that was a big help to them in 2006.

Now we learn that democrat and loser, Tim Mahoney of Florida, who happened to take Mark Foley's place has been ignoring his wife and pleasing his mistress for some time. Mahoney agreed to a buy her silence with $121,000 and two years of employment. Meanwhile, major loser Rep. Rahm Emanuel (D-IL), has been working with Mahoney to keep this hushed - for campaign reasons.

As usual, and it happens all the time, the two-faced democrats are the real party of corruption.

Vote against the filthy democrats every chance you get.

Victory In Iraq is Not a Mistake

The U.S. military was sent to Iraq by both parties of Congress following 9/11. After our troops were digging in and paying the price in a difficult war, the democrats wanted to quit and come home. With no thought of what such a surrender would mean to our troops, Iraq and Al-Queada, the democrats acted as enemies of the U.S. military and continued to threaten to cut off their support. Meet the democrats. They care only about the political agenda of the liberal left.

Speaking of the liberal left, Obama is one of these anti-Americans, and now he thinks he can be Chief of these same armed forces. Iraq war veteran Joe Cook has been to Iraq and fought in the war. He has a message of insight and wisdom for Obama to hear. You can see it too at this link to the youtube video.

9/11 and the 2008 Election



As you this day remember the tragedy inflicted on the USA by terrorists, Obama also wants you to remember his friend and spiritual mentor of 20 years, Rev. Jeremiah Wright. Only Rev. Wright, with full support from Obama, had the courage to instruct America that we deserved the attack on 9/11. It was just "our chickens coming home to roost. God Damn America!"

Maybe Barack Hussein Obama will come up with a chicken analogy before the day is over.

If you vote for Obama, you might as well vote for Osama. Pretty much the same thing!

Dennis

Democrats Resort to Bible





These are crazy days in the Obama camp. Lots of screws coming loose and the dems are beginning to sense their demise. This is making them nuts and they are acting like it. Following the lipstick and pig slams against McCain/Palin, the democrats have renewed their effort to remove the separation of church and state. If political rhetoric from the left requires religion on the floor of Congress, then so be it.

The dems have come up with a new analogy that is supposed to help Obama Hussein and hurt Sara Palin. It goes like this: Jesus Christ was a community organizer; Pontious Pilate was a governor.

So we compare Obama to Jesus Christ and we compare Pontious Pilate to Sara Palin. The intent is to smear Palin with this analogy since Pilate is only remembered for one thing: allowing Jesus Christ to be sent to the cross.

This analogy probably needed a little more thought. For the next logical piece of the analogy is just beautiful. Who is it that has been gladly and proudly portrayed as the Saviour and Messiah throughout this campaign? Obama. It is then reasonable to expect that Palin is going to crucify Obama. Sweet, so sweet.

Typical White Person?



Obama Hussein once referred to his grandmother as a typical white person. Today, when I saw her picture, I was utterly shocked! After some deep thought, I decided this must be the other grandma. How fortunate for Obama. Not only does he have one black parent and one white parent, but he also has the matched set of grandmas.

This grandma must be on his father's side. She lives in Kenya and made the news because someone broke into her house, apparently hoping to steal her solar panel.

Temple Tonight



Hey, don't forget to go to temple worship tonight. Messiah Obama is expecting you to be there, face to the ground. Since a crowd of 24,000 wasn't adequate for his audacity, he moved the whole worship service to the football stadium. Now 75,000 screwed-up people can bow down to his liberal left positions and be chosen to propagate his lies. (Have no fear if he forgets his halo, they have an extra one.)

Who Are These Women?

There have been a lot of old democrats showing up at the convention this week, but so far I have not seen Geraldine Ferraro. Maybe she has been there and I am just not aware. You might remember Geraldine Ferraro is an avid Hillary supporter and worker who was pushed to resign because of a supposed racial remark she made.

Today I came across an op/ed piece by Geraldine Ferraro in nydailynews.com entitled "What Hillary Clinton's women want".

She is talking about three groups of women and there was a comment about one of the groups that just struck me in the face. Speaking of women who wanted Hillary, but will now join the party line and choose Obama Hussein over McCain. Here is the quote:

"They also would never think of voting for McCain, primarily because of two vital, closely related issues of their concern: the Supreme Court and abortion."

Yes that's what it says. When push comes to shove, these women care most about guarding their right to kill their babies! Women become mothers, and then mothers kill their babies! Who are these sick women? This is a sick society! Obama is their man, that's for sure.

Best Manager of the Economy

Why do you think that 49% of Americans think John McCain will be the better manager of the economy, as opposed to 40% for Obama?

One significant reason is that Obama and his democrats have no interest in lowering gas prices. Speaker of the House Pelosi is so opposed to drilling she is obstructing House procedure and will not even allow the issue of drilling to see a vote. Think Audacity of Pelosi - obviously having her way is more important than the will of the entire legislative body. This is just one example of how democrats totally abuse the governmental system they are supposed to be serving.

In addition to supporting higher gas prices, Obama also has shown that he does not have the intelligence to discuss economic issue. He just repeats sound bytes and message points - like a tape player.

Dennis

Obama is losing ground fast!

Americans are celebrating the latest Reuters/Zogby poll released on Wednesday. McCain now has a nine point lead over Obama (49 percent to 40 percent). What a change from Obama's earlier lead of 7 percentage points!

There are many factors as to why this change has occurred, but the bottom line is it's not that big of surprise. Americans are starting to get more serious about the upcoming election and are seeing more clearly what an 'empty suit' Obama Hussein is.

Obama has continued to stammer and stutter his way towards wrong solutions on almost every issue. He has continued to show his anti-American stripes and they do run deep. One of the more recent examples was his connecting with Vladimir Putin to blame the U.S. for the Gerogia incident.

There is a silver lining for the democrats, though, so be encouraged. Obama Hussein will be the first black man to lose the general election for President of the United States, so the historical significance is not lost.

Obama going down!

My friend, Jellen, is having fun with her digital camera (a Fuji FinePix S700). In the past she has demonstrated over and over that she is a creative writer. With the Fuji camera in her hand, she has found another tool to express her creativity. One of the capabilities of the Fuji FinePix camera is the macro feature which made possible the dandelion puff shot. Jellen can also think out of the box and ask, "What does the sky look like from a dog's perspective?" Check out two of her shots here:

Is Paris HIlton A Recluse?

So says Obama Hussein, the magnificent.

Recently Obama became fairly undone with McCain's ad comparing Obama to two popular young ladies - Paris Hilton and Britney Spears. The ad drives home the point that Obama's glory is that he thinks he is a rock star and equates the size of a rock concert in Germany to his greatness here in the U.S. The most recent polls confirm that he is dreaming.

In the Washington Post dated 2/24/05, Obama Hussein himself had made this comparison. How right on could McCain be with his ad!

Quoting from the Washington Post:

There's nothing exotic or complicated about how phenoms are made in Washington, and, more to the point, how they are broken.

"Andy Warhol said we all get our 15 minutes of fame," says Barack Obama. "I've already had an hour and a half. I mean, I'm so overexposed, I'm making Paris Hilton look like a recluse."


No one has worked harder for media attention than Paris and Britney, but they will never even come close to what the liberal media have given to Obama in this campaign. The press has a thing for losers, I guess.

Two Peas In A Pod, Almost

A recent AP article was talking about Virginia Governor Kaine being a strong contender for Obama Hussein's vice president. This quote about Kaine is so revealing:

"But Kaine has no foreign policy background, and as a first-term governor, he may add to voters' concerns about Obama's experience. Kaine remains popular in Virginia, but he has had trouble dealing with Republicans and has no single defining achievement to point to on the campaign trail."

What a perfect match! Two peas in a pod. Salt and Pepper!

This describes Obama exactly:
- no foreign policy background
- first time Senator
- voters are concerned about no (absolutely none) experience
- trouble dealing with Republicans (actually anyone who disagrees with him)
- has no defining achievement to point to

Obama's Phantom Wall

A brief synopsis of a discussion on Hardball reveals a strong Republican! Nice Job Heather Wilson!

Chris Matthews - 'HARDBALL' host
Heather Wilson, Republican congresswoman from New Mexico, guest
Robert Wexler, the representative from Congress from down in Boca, guest

Matthews: "Congresswoman Heather Wilson, what do you make of those remarks by Barack Obama today?"

Wilson: "Saying something like there's a wall between the United States and Europe? I mean, we've been allies with Western Germany and Germany as a whole since the end of the second world war. NATO is one of our strongest alliances and so what is he talking about? What's the substance behind that?"

[other discussion between Matthews, Wexler and Wilson]

WILSON: "We have British troops with us in Iraq. There's no question that there were differences on policy. But to say that somehow there is a wall in NATO that's running somewhere down the Atlantic shows Senator Obama's inexperience when it comes to understanding where we are. You see that in a number of other things. I mean, look at his platform. He has these kind of message-tested, poll-tested things like we should -- Barack Obama will make sure that we take, he will negotiate with the Russians to take our ICBMs off hair-trigger alert? It's a great idea. It was done 20 years ago. He seems to be unaware of American history, and that's inexperience which causes people some real concern about whether he's ready for the Oval Office.

Obama once again shows his desire to degrade America every chance he gets. The democrats have had this long-standing 'hate' campaign against Bush. They have worked hard to spread the lie across the globe. But, it is still a lie. Obama knows pretty much nothing about American history. Better limit your questions to Africa and select Muslim nations.

McCain Opposed to Affirmative Action?

Obama Hussein is accusing McCain of flip-flopping on the issue of affirmative action. In this case, McCain is accused of supporting an Arizona ballot initiative aimed at ending race- and gender- based preference programs. That would be great news! It would be wonderful if we had one candidate that had the brains and courage to end these racist programs. Affirmative action is 100% racism and it has gone on too long. Gather up all the affirmative action programs, then take them out back and burn them.

Those people who have been living off of this racist gravy train are not grateful in the least - rather they are the most racist people in the country.

Obama Hussein is a racist and he supports the race industry. No doubt he will expand the affirmative action programs. He wants to: Keep the victims down!

John Edwards' Other Family

Hard work paid off this week at the National Enquirer. Through careful planning and apparently a little foreknowledge, they were able to catch John Edwards in the act, well almost.



Edwards went sneaking into the Beverly Hilton hotel in L.A. in the dark of the night. He found some stairs down to the basement and caught an elevator to go to the room. He was avoiding the main lobby at all cost. He was meeting his mistress (the more masculine one in the above photo). Down the hall, a friend was in another room watching over the love child.

Somehow Edward's plans had been made known, so when he came sneaking out of the room at 2:40 am, the NE reporters met him at the basement elevator. They said he looked like a deer with headlights. With all his sneaking around, he was shocked at their presence. In order to get away from the press (was his hair messed up?) he hid in the men's room until hotel security came and ushered him out.

Edwards has a mistress and a love child, but so far refuses to admit it. His wife, who is struggling with cancer, must be so impressed. V.P. Candidate?

Media Cleanup In China

China is telling its media that they will not tolerate obscene, sexual, superstitious or base advertisements during the Olympic period. Now there is good in this effort, but bear in mind it is only while they have all that attention from the world. In many ways China has made it clear that they are not going to "just be themselves" during the Olympics.

The government issued a statement that included this:

"Advertising companies have a responsibility to society for propaganda and showing the country's image. Order in the Olympic advertising market directly connects to the national image."

My final point is this. China's standard is that the propaganda will be used to promote and improve the country's image. In the U.S., the mainstream media is continually using propaganda to tear down the image of the U.S. - not only in the eyes of U.S. citizens, but all around the world.

What is Obama Hiding?

Even with the great support Obama consistently has from the main stream media, he still cannot trust them. Even though the press has been totally in his back pocket, he sees the need to exclude them.

The pictures and stories that Obama is generating in Afghanistan and Iraq are fakes. He keeps the press away, and then stages what he wants the picture to show. What is he afraid of? Why no press conferences in either country? This certainly shows how phony are the three news anchors that went over their with him.

Could it be that in the dark recesses of his mind Obama knows that deception is the key to his success. Does he possibly realize that people who see him for who he is would never vote for him?

This news story intrigued me so much, I actually posted it to two different blogs. Pick one and catch more of the detail.

Getting Naked at the Airport

About a dozen US airports have now installed the whole-body imaging machine as part of the security program. These talented and inquisitive machines use some kind of x-ray to see weapons or explosives that are concealed under several layers of clothes.

That's the good news, an important tool for security. You may not want to know this, but the same device can look at shape and size of anything else that resides beneath your clothing. Somebody is going to get an eyeful!

Obama rips off taxpayers

The media has been all a buzz that Obama raised 52 million dollars of support in June. Yet he is going to have the American taxpayer fund his campaign trip to Europe. Why can he get away with this?

Some will be quick to advise me that a senator (even junior senators that are not doing their job) are allowed to travel at taxpayer expense. But this trip is not about his job. It is merely a publicity stunt to dupe the American people into thinking that his no-nothing could survive on the international front. The mainstream media have already written the last chapter of the trip-journal, so there is no doubt about what you will see on the news.

I thought Obama was going to campaign without U.S. funds. I am a taxpayer and I do not support this trip.

Dennis

We pay for Obama's publicity stunt!

Voinovich Right On!

In a state (Ohio) that suffers from an abundance of democrats, it is nice to hear a Republican voice speak out. Senator George Voinovich used the term 'ridiculous' to refer to Gore's recent energy speech. It is almost behond belief that anyone can take Al Gore seriously. This is not the first time Voinovich has spoken out with common sense on energy and global warming. I guess Voinovich, unlike many in Congress, is starting to get it!

Gore says that the U.S. should end our dependence on carbon based fuels within the next 10 years. What better way to weaken our economy while the rest of the world continues to thrive on petroleum fuel.

Al Gore is in it for the money. His company is banking on the carbon credit nonsense to make a truckload of money, and he'll tear down his country to do it.

If Gore is serious about reducing petroleum dependence, he should first acknowledge that other forms of energy need to be proven successful first. Nuclear energy has been proven, so that is likely where we would need to expand first. Wind and solar are supplemental sources of energy that can help in some applications.

Always vote against the likes of Al Gore - he does not have the best interest of our country at heart.

Dennis

Drill Now!

The lines are drawn in Congress:

The Republicans want to drill in the frozen tundra of Alaska and off east and west coasts of the U.S. They know that just the initiation of this effort will effect the global price of oil in a good way and gasoline prices will go down. This is common sense, this is good sense.

Meanwhile, the democrats are opposed to any such drilling. Pelosi calls it a hoax. democrats think it far better that we pay even more for petroleum. Anything to hurt the country and promote their sick anti-american agenda.

What is amazing is that the liberal party that now wants to be called progressive, is still hung up on environmental wacko ideas of 25 years ago. It is definitely time to remove the democrats from office.

Telling niggers how to behave!

Wait a minute, who's telling niggers how to behave? Those words come straight out of the heart of the democrat party from one of their long-standing heros - Jesse Jackson.

Yes, when Jesse was heard saying of Barack Hussein Obama that he wanted to cut his nuts off, he also made this accusation of Obama.

Now, if Jesse Jackson can call black people niggers, I think it is OK for anyone to use the same lingo. No fear, no guilt, no n-word. The black community seems to relish the word nigger.

To avoid any confusion, I must point out that Jesse Jackson did not call Barack Hussein a nigger.

Fight The Smears!

Barack Obama has had enough! He's tired of people using the internet to say things he doesn't want them to say. He's concerned about allegations that he is neither a Christian nor a patriotic American. He's not concerned with freedom of speech - after all, he is a liberal.

He is hoping that his online supporters will use the new website www.fightthesmears.com to cover the truth with party line propoganda. After all, November is still a ways off.

This is a great opportunity for those who can see the truth about Obama to speak out loud and often. Don't let him hide behind his teleprompter symbolism.

It has been alleged by some that he is neither a Christian nor a patriotic American. Count me in - I see that he is neither.

Obama's decision to create a platform where these truths can be more broadly published is good for America.

Those who write and read blogs have certainly discovered that some blog entries so readily evoke a response that your hands are practically pulled to the keyboard. Other blog entries leave you sitting at the computer with a 'that's nice, so what' expression on your face. Obviously the last example is not the desired effect.

More than likely I am currently doing what I just talked about. I posted two entries on my Blogger Party blog. They are both book reviews, but content is quite different.

Global Warming Solution?

Once they grasped the imminent danger facing the global community, U.S. decision-makers had no choice but to act quickly, and so they did. Petroleum-based fuels are possibly the largest source of man-made carbon so it was only logical to reduce gasoline consumption. The solution proposed was to start blending ethanol (produced from corn) with gasoline. This has been going on long enough now that we can access the impact of this program.

Since the big push to use ethanol/gasoline blends:

Gasoline prices have continued to rise.

Food prices have risen significantly. Initially it was foods directly related to corn or corn syrup, but now the price increases are obvious in almost all food types.

Farmers are intending to use more of their land for corn (and less for other grains like wheat and oats) because the prices of corn are so high.

Around the world, available food supplies have become more scarce and prices have gone up significantly.

Riots over food supply and cost in places like Somalia have resulted in injury and death of people.

Scientists have determined that if you correctly analyze the carbon footprint of raising and processing corn, that there is little if any reduction in carbon emissions compared to petroleum production.


This should be a wake-up call to the decision-makers that they have to consider all factors when developing such a strategy. It is not acceptable to upset so many applecarts and then have no environmental benefit to show for it. There will not be one perfect solution. Rather many, many trade-offs will need to be considered.

Obama Has a Boyfriend?

Photobucket

Larry Sinclair, a Minnesoata democrat, says you only need to go back to 1999 to see Obama using crack cocaine. For dessert, Larry Sinclair and Obama enjoyed homosexual activity.

Larry Sinclair believes a presidential candidate should be honest and that is why he is speaking out. Since the media has had no interest in his story, he put his message out on Youtube. He has had over a quarter million visitors so far.

Sinclair is willing to submit to a polygraph test and now he will get his chance. Someone has offered him $10,000 for the right to record the test and $100,000 if he passes the test. How is that for academic motivation?

Meet Obama. He has already stated a strong pro-homosexual position, but how many Americans have contemplated him being gay?

How many ways can Obama deceive the American people? Shall he also lead by deception?

Obama's Friend Bill Ayers

Photobucket

Is that an American flag he is standing on? Yes it is. Disrespect for flag and country is one of the consistent themes of liberal democrats. This is what the democrat party has to offer voters in Indiana and North Carolina today.

Both Clinton and Obama stand firmly in the left wing of the democrat party. They cover it up as much as they can, but sooner or later voters do catch on.

Bill Ayers is a known and admitted terrorist and democrat radical. He has been involved in making bombs and blowing up U.S. buildings. When interviewed after 9/11, he said he only wished he had blown up more.

It was at the home of Bill Ayers that Obama kicked off his campaign for U.S. Senate. Obama's argument is that he was only 8 when Ayers bombs were going off. That may be true, but apparently a much older Obama is quite comfortable to be in the Ayers camp. By the way, the picture was taken in 2001.

It only takes a few sound bites from the media and most democrat voters are lulled into a dull stupor - not able to see who their candidate really is.

Jeremiah Wright - Racist

Through the wonders of video recording and YouTube, Americans have recently come to understand what the Reverend Jeremiah Wright of Chicago's Trinity United Church of Christ is about. For myself, and many others, it is a shock that this level of racism and hatred still exists in a public forum in the U.S. Truth is - such poisoned minds do exist and they are a major influence in people like Barack Hussein Obama.



Think about it!

Super What?

With Hillary's success at the polls this past Tuesday, there is a good chance that neither she or Obama will have enough delegates secured after all the primary elections to grab the democrat nomination for President. Bring on the super delegates!

The official name for super delegates is "unpledged party leader and elected official delegate." These people are super delegates merely because of their status as current or former elected officeholders and party officials. You might say these are people that hold or have held positions of power or influence in the party.

When the democrat convention is held, the unique privilege these delegates hold is freedom to vote for whomever they choose. They are not obliged to represent the choice of the people. So be it - that is the system.

Think about this for a minute. As the convention draws near, and the race stays close, can you imagine the discussions between the super delegates and the people of Hillary and Obama. Handshakes, persuasion, discussion, promises, support and 'under-the-table-surprises' must abound! After a long and close race, is their anything that a super delegate cannot ask for, or be offered? It would be interesting to know!

A Silent Gathering of 500?

Talk radio host Glenn Beck recently interviewed John Coleman, the man who started the Weather Channel. John Coleman is one of many scientists who say it is high time to speak out against Al Gore's global warming alarmism.

This week there has been a convention of scientists meeting in New York. Approximately 500 scientists are in attendance and a number of them are well known and highly respected. Regardless of where you live, whether New Zealand, China, England or New York, it is almost certain that you have not heard about this convention. Why would it be such a secret, especially since the meetings are held within a few blocks of the major TV network channels?

The reason for the silence is that these scientists are not in step with the politically correct view of global warming. Their ideas clash with the intent of the media and are thus ignored.

John Coleman is hopeful that it is not too late for the truth to have an impact on people's thinking. He has questioned if there is financial fraud associated with carbon credits. Think of an infomercial where they are working hard to sell something to you in any way they can. They show you a product and then a few actors wrap it up in enthusiastic praise. Finally, you cave-in and order - only to be disappointed later when you see the product is not all they said it would be.

In the same way, if you pay me for carbon credits, I can take the money and tell you that I will do something to reduce global warming. Was your money well spent? You will never know. Cautious shoppers will bear in mind: there is significant doubt as to whether man can impact global climate change, for man's contribution of carbon may not be the issue. Since we are talking about a global issue you might also consider that China's outpouring of greenhouse gases will by far outdo any good your money will bring about. Never you mind, though. I will take your money and praise your global activism. If the government takes the money, you will have even less chance of seeing a benefit.

John Coleman is looking for a group of lawyers to consider if this is financial fraud. The atmosphere of a courtroom would be effective for clearing the air and getting to the truth.

Observations on Global Warming

Climate Change?

Recently I came across this collection of observations on a blog. Based on other reading, I believe this is generally true. The author was not specified so I cannot give credit.

"Global warming is a sham and is nothing more than a political cause to change the world as we know it. The Arctic Ice cap is reforming. The Antarctic Ice cap is at record depth. Solar activity has slowed and we are experiencing near record freezes in many parts of the world. Planetary temperatures worldwide have been decreasing the last 5 years. Here in San Diego, the average temperature for the entire year was a full1 1 degree colder than 2006."

Take time and opportunity to pull away from the mind-engulfing alarmism that the media is pumping out and see what is really going on!

March 4 - Election Day

Big Day in Toledo, Ohio. Of course there are the Presidential Primary Candidates to be voted on. Rush Limbaugh makes a good case for the benefit of Hillary winning (just for a while). Top Republican candidates are not so close.

Far more interesting is the ballot for those who reside in Toledo. They have the chance to vote down a school levy for Toledo Public Schools. Until the education system is fixed, that is the best thing to do.

Toledo is also asking citizens to renew a 3/4% income tax. Even though it has been around for 20 years, the tax has always been labeled temporary. What a great opportunity for Toledo citizens to send a message to the corrupt local government. The union/democrat control that has the city in a dangerous head-lock needs to be told, "Enough!"

What will the people of Toledo do with this opportunity. Bear in mind the mayor (one Carlton S. Finkbeiner - jerk with no respect for the Marines) has been threatening people that he will cut police and fire support for the city! These extortionist threats are absurd and certainly an abuse of power.

Hats off to WSPD (talk radio) and especially Maggie Thurber for showing that such cuts are not necessary, even if the tax is defeated.

P.S. Conclusion: In the end,Toledoans proved themselves stupid on both counts!

The Fraud of Global Warming

Those are strong words! John Coleman, founder of the Weather Channel (1982) shared that concept at the 2008 International Conference on Climate Change on March 3 in New York. John Coleman is highly critical of global warming alarmism and says that the Weather Channel has become an outlet for it. One example is from December 2006 when Heidi Cullen (an employee) argued on her blog that,

"weathercasters who had doubts about human influence on global warming should be punished with decertification by the American Meteorological Society."

He also indicated a strategy for gaining control of this problem: He advocated suing those who sell carbon credits, and that would include Al Gore. (article here)

At the same conference, Lord Christopher Monckton, a policy adviser to former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher stated that science will eventually prevail and the 'scare' of global warming will go away.

I leave you with two comments: The statement from Ms. Cullen is not surprising at all. The liberal left in the U.S. seldom have any interest in debating facts. Their approach is consistently emotion and outrage and then whatever it takes to squelch the expression of any opposing views.

Secondly, I applaud John Coleman. It is always refreshing to see a man more concerned about truth than political correctness. This must be a great encouragement for the many climatologist who know that global warming is a scam, but are afraid to speak up. Way to go, John Coleman!

What is Obama's Magic?

As anyone knows, especially Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama is gathering a lot of support and a very strong following. Many have commented that his influence over people resembles that of a religious zealot. His 'rookie' efforts seem to be more effective than the tried and true political power and corruption that Hillary is relying upon.

The magic of Obama is that he is a blank slate. His glorious speeches are made up of warm and fuzzy hope-filled visions of future glory. He does not talk details or specifics on the issues. Rather, he leaves everything wide open.

He puts the blank slate in front of your eyes and then allows you to fill it with your own fantasies and desires. Plug in whatever you want and then find a stamp of approval in his words.

Silly, oh so silly, is any person that would get sucked into this fantasy. Campaign speeches are meaningless unless they merge with reality after the election. Obama is living in a dream world. One example:

In his TV commercial I saw last night he makes the case for needing health care reform. Then he makes this statement, "We must fix health care, but first we must fix Washington."

There is no way Obama is going to fix, or even significantly change Washington. Our government is a huge beast that will not in any way be infuenced by his presence.

Wake up people!

February 1 at the Dentist

I had not planned it this way - it's just how it worked out. I had a dentist appointment this morning, on February 1st. So what, you say?

In case you did not know it, February is Children's Dental Health Month. This makes February a bit unique and will give you something to think about besides your bills.

Interesting side-note - I posted on the same topic last year!

For the children's teeth

By the way - no cavities!

Where has time gone?

It is truly amazing that I have not posted here since last September! So hard to believe. The whole time I was alive and had ample access to a computer. I just got too busy with other things.

When Blogfeast went down for good, it was certainly a blow to my blogging enthusiasm, and my momentum really lagged. I was also investing time in other money making opportunities. I told myself there must be something to this PTR/PTC/PTP business. There is and I will talk more about that at another time.

Blogging is writing, and writing is creative - I think that is why it can be fun.

So plan on stopping back here. I've got lots to talk about, including Clinton, Obama, Romney and McCain!

Oh yea, I have not missed a beat of the sorry political secene.
