  • Lest we forget….

    Today is the 222th anniversary of the signing of the Constitution of the United States. We need to remember this document and remember the men who took action to see it put into place as the Rule of Law of our Republic. Remember our Freedoms, as put into place by this document. I think that… Continue reading

  • How many CAN Obama screw in one day?

    Firstly, and not surprisingly, the Obama administration has decided to completely screw the Czechs and the Poles by ditching plans for the missile defense system. Guess he’s trying to replace the non-functioning and mis-translated ‘Reset’ button, with the Nuclear Button in the hands of the Russians. Nice timing on that too, BTW–the 70th anniversary of… Continue reading

  • Screwing the middle class

    I was listening to NPR this morning (during commercials it was Don Wade and Roma on WLS radio with snippets of Bob and Tom) but during their discussion of the health care bill (@ 3:27), I heard that the insurance requirement was going to cost a middle class family, which was defined as a family… Continue reading

  • Warning: Soapbox Issue: our Educational System

    Via Insty: Jay Matthews of the Washington Post writes about a high school teacher who was going to lose his teaching certification because he hadn’t taken enough education school courses. This guy has National Board Certification and practical, real-world experience out the yin-yang. But he was going to lose his certification and his job because… Continue reading

  • Healthcare Shell Game??

    It’s interesting that the MSM is concentrating on Mr. Obama’s US tour stumping for his healthcare bill (which I very much doubt he knows anything about judging from his previous remarks about it) while the Congress is working on very bills in committee. Is it meant to be a distraction from the work going on… Continue reading

  • Your dismissive attitude will get you nowhere, Mr. Axelrod

    Had a busy weekend at the gun show and so had to wait to read the blogs and watch the news about the Tea Party Protest on Sunday afternoon. But I almost fell off the couch when David Axelrod and Mr. Obama both dismissed the million plus (I guess if you add enough tens of… Continue reading

  • So… healthcare reform…

    Saw the President. This is what I got. Healthcare reform won’t cost anything except for $900 billion that they will extort from the insurance companies and from those ‘irresponsible’ fools who choose not to get health insurance or those companies who don’t offer health insurance. His door is open to anyone, except for those who… Continue reading

  • Recoil therapy… a very nice weekend..

    Last weekend was my birthday weekend. It was nice–beautiful and unique gifts from my partner that showed that he really put a lot of time and thought into them, dinners with my partner’s folks, getting stuff done around the house, and recoil therapy. Went to the shooting range so that my best friend from college’s… Continue reading

  • Personal responsibility issues…

    Via Amy Alkon… Five people in Gold Canyon in California refused to evacuate when told that the fires were coming their way but now that they are in danger, they want to be bailed out. Problem being is that there is no safe way to get to these morons. If they try, there is going… Continue reading

  • Oh HELL no!

    Via Drudge, Weekly World Daily has a chilling article regarding some new regarding legislation in Massachussetts that’s been passed by their Senate and is now making its way through the House (and this makes me wicked glad that I don’t live there anymore)…. The way I’m reading this piece of fear-laden crap is that ‘authorities’… Continue reading
