Seriously...?
20 Dems want the finances of Clarence Thomas looked into. They say he did his taxes incorrectly and that the money his wife made from the Heritage Foundation should have been disclosed to the government. This is coming from the party of Turbo Tax Timmy and several other cabinet level "ministers" who have a problem correctly completing their taxes yet still manage to obtain high level positions with the criminal obama regime. Pot/Kettle. Does anyone remember Elena Kagan? Shes the Supreme Court Justice who helped obama write the health care program that was run through congress in the middle of the night, literally. The plan is to force Thomas to recuse himself from the upcoming hearings regarding the constitunality of obamacare. Read it here. Liberal Fucktards. Oh! And they want Holder's DOJ to do the investigating. Remember how well DOJ is doing in the Fast and Furious investigation. OH! WAIT! The DOJ is being investigated in Fast and Furious. Kinda. Sorry. My bad. These people are stoopid.
Lesbians adopt boy who is now 11 and suffering identity crisis. They want him to, wait, this is crazy... Read it here. He's (she's?) in the process of "changing" to be the girl she always knew she was. Berkeley, California. Nothing screwed up about this story. These two wackos should be put in jail for child endangerment, mind molestation.
Corporal Klinger is apparently alive and well in the military. Now that "don't ask, don't tell" has been rescinded, they want transgendered, transvestite folks to be able to serve openly in the military. Read it here and here. I guess Billy feels left out because he can't show up for formation in his skirt and pumps. Whoa. Have we totally lost it? These are obviously folks on the outside pushing this hideous agenda. These idiot Liberals wouldn't recognize "good order and discipline" if it bit them on the ass. Crazy.
Remember that saying from the '60's and '70's? "If it feels good, do it"? Well, we did. Look where it got us.
Tell me again, how in the hell did we get here?
Anyway, that's it for now. Have a great weekend.
Stay safe.

Anwar al-Awlaki dead...
SANAA, Yemen (AP) — Yemen's Defense Ministry said Friday that the U.S.-born al-Qaida cleric Anwar al-Awlaki has been killed.
The Yemeni ministry provided no details in the statement, which appeared on one of its website.
Yemeni security and tribal officials said an airstrike thought to have been carried out by U.S. aircraft on Friday targeted a convoy of cars traveling in the eastern province of Marib but could not say whether al-Awlaki was in the convoy...

Pretzel Logic...
Advocates for the unemployed have cheered a push by the Obama administration to ban discrimination against the jobless. But business groups and their allies are calling the effort unnecessary and counterproductive.
The job creation bill that President Obama sent to Congress earlier this month includes a provision that would allow unsuccessful job applicants to sue if they think a company of 15 more employees denied them a job because they were unemployed.
The provision would ban employment ads that explicitly declare the unemployed ineligible, with phrases like "Jobless need not apply." As The Lookout has reported, such ads appear to have proliferated in recent years, prompting an inquiry by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.
Democratic lawmakers in both the House and the Senate have introduced similar measures. Obama said recently that discrimination against the unemployed makes "absolutely no sense," especially because many people find themselves out of work through no fault of their own.
Advocates for employers oppose the proposed ban. "We do not see a need for it," Michael Eastman of the Chamber of Commerce told the New York Times.
Lawrence Lorber, a labor law specialist who represents employers, told the paper the president's proposal "opens another avenue of employment litigation and nuisance lawsuits."
Louie Gohmert, a Republican representative from Texas, went further. He told the Times that the proposal would send the following message: "If you're unemployed and you go to apply for a job, and you're not hired for that job, see a lawyer. You may be able to file a claim because you got discriminated against because you were unemployed."
The current downturn is characterized by a relatively low rate of layoffs, but still high unemployment. Many of the jobless have been out of work for an extended period. Around 14 million Americans are officially unemployed, of whom more than 6 million are considered "long-term unemployed," because they've been out of work for six months or more. The average duration of joblessness is currently 40 weeks, the highest in more than 60 years.
There is evidence that when people are out of work for an extended period, their skills atrophy and it becomes increasingly difficult for them to find new work.
Earlier this year, New Jersey passed a bill banning ads that tell the jobless not to apply. But it did not go as far as Obama's proposal, because it didn't explicitly allow workers to sue if they thought they were denied a job because they were unemployed.
Wow. Seriously?

Chris Christie...
I know that a lot of folks are sitting out there waiting for the Governor of New Jersey to throw his hat into the Republican presidential race. If you give even the slightest bit of a shit about the Second Amendment I'd suggest you Google Chris Christie Gun Laws and get an idea of what he believes in. Start reading the articles posted there. Pay a bit more attention than you did before you voted for obama in '08. Beware of a smooth talker who says (mostly) what you want to hear but won't give the correct answer to the question....
Here is just a single example:
Chris Christie Fighting to Finish Line
Tuesday, October 27, 2009
===================================
HANNITY: All right. As governor, now one of the big debates in the Republican Party now is whether or not it’s going to be a party of Reagan and conservatism or those that want a more moderate voice?
As governor, now you’re a prosecutor, so you’re tough on crime.
CHRISTIE: Yes.
HANNITY: You’re running this campaign on fiscal responsibility.
CHRISTIE: Yes.
HANNITY: Are there any issues where you are, quote, moderate to left as a Republican?
CHRISTIE: Listen, I favor some of the gun-control measures we have in New Jersey.
HANNITY: Bad idea.
CHRISTIE: Listen, we have a densely-populated state, and there’s a big hand gun problem in New Jersey. Now, I don’t support all the things that the governor supports by a long stretch. But I think on guns — certain gun control issues, looking at it from a law-enforcement perspective, seeing how many police officers were killed, we have an illegal gun problem in New Jersey.
HANNITY: Should every — should every citizen in the state be allowed to get a licensed weapon if they want one?
CHRISTIE: In New Jersey, that’s not going to happen, Sean.
HANNITY: Why?
CHRISTIE: Listen, the Democratic legislature we have, there's no way those type of things — listen, at the end of the day, what I support are common sense laws that will allow people to protect themselves, but I also am very concerned about the safety of our police officers on the streets, very concerned. And I want to make sure that we don't have an abundance of guns out there.
But listen, the issues in this race are taxes and jobs and spending.

Google him. Read all that you can.
Am I a single issue voter? Let me put it this way: If a candidate is a proponent of weakening or abusing the Second in any way, shape or form, he or she won't get my vote. DQ. Out. Not happening.
Anyway, I'm not excited about any of the Republicans that have thrown their hat in the ring with the possible exception of Ron Paul. I know that folks complain about his stance on foreign policy but hey, perhaps being isolationists again isn't such a bad idea.
Sarah Palin intrigues me. Anyone who scares the crap out of the establishment Democrats and Republicans while maintaining a strong grassroots base must be doing something right.
The problem is, as I see it, that there is really no one out there who will bring this country back together. There are no leaders.
We're screwed. No sense in denying that.

Life in Oceania...
"It was terribly dangerous to let your thoughts wander when you were in any public place or within range of a telescreen. The smallest thing could give you away. A nervous tic, an unconscious look of anxiety, a habit of muttering to yourself--anything that carried with it the suggestion of abnormality, of having something to hide. In any case, to wear an improper expression on your face was itself a punishable offense. There was even a word for it in Newspeak: facecrime..."

Weekly newsletter from Grassley...
Did the U.S. Attorney’s Office, ATF Case Agent Attempt to Obstruct Congressional Inquiry?
Secret recordings released over the last week corroborated details about coordination between the U.S. Attorney’s office in Phoenix and the Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) case agent in answering questions from my congressional investigation of Operation Fast and Furious.
Both the U.S. Attorney’s office and the ATF were intimately involved in the botched gun operation. It started as an ATF case, but later became a “prosecutor-led,” multiagency strike force case. An assistant in the U.S. Attorney’s office was responsible for coordinating the operation and deciding whether and when to prosecute the straw purchasers. ATF supervisors claim that the U.S. Attorney’s office consistently refused to prosecute straw purchasers, which then required them to let the criminals and the guns go. However, agents testified that there was plenty of evidence to justify stopping the suspects to question them and develop probable cause to seize the firearms.
The tapes, secretly recorded by the Federal Firearms Licensee cooperating with the ATF operation, bring more details to light in the botched operation that allowed guns to be purchased by known straw buyers who then transported the firearms to criminals and Mexican drug cartels. Two guns found at the murder scene of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry were part of this operation, and many more have been found at crime scenes in the United States and Mexico.
The recordings reveal concerns raised by the gun dealer to ATF Case Agent Hope MacAllister about statements made by Assistant U.S. Attorney Emory Hurley. This recording corroborates a transcribed interview that congressional investigators had with the cooperating gun dealer and his attorney. In the interview, the congressional investigators were informed that the Assistant U.S. Attorney allegedly told the gun dealer’s attorney to tell his client that the U.S. Attorney’s Office, the ATF and the gun dealer were “all in the same boat.” On a separate occasion the ATF group supervisor in Phoenix, David Voth, allegedly told the gun dealer, “we are on all on the same sheet of music. And if we stay on the same sheet of music, we will be all right.” These statements were made to the gun dealer or his attorney while discussing the congressional inquiry that I had undertaken in late January 2011.
The interview, in conjunction with the recordings, shows what appears to be an attempt by federal officials to get the gun dealer on board with telling the same story to Congress about the ill-advised gun-walking strategy.
In addition, the recordings showed the lengths the ATF might go to in order to head off a congressional investigation. During one of the conversations between the cooperating gun dealer and the ATF case agent, the agent suggested that a way to make the issues “go away” would be to hire a private investigator to investigate me.
They obviously don’t know me very well. I’ll keep working on getting to the bottom of this disastrous strategy until we find out who approved Fast and Furious, and we make sure something so stupid is never approved again.

~~~~~~~~~~ Yes, I receive a weekly newsletter from Senator Grassley. We have been corresponding, off and on, since 1975. That's back when you sent letters back and forth through the US Mail and he was a US Congressman :). Now it's via email, of course. He also sends out follow-up letters via snail mail. He's a stand up guy. Lives down the road a bit from me. I don't think that he and Congressman Issa are going to roll over and play dead. I loved his comment: "They obviously don't know me very well".
I hope we see some indictments soon. High level indictments. Criminals at the very highest levels of government. They are criminals, ya know. If you or I did what they have done we'd be in jail by now. They would have thrown away the key. (My momma used to tell me that "they" were gonna lock me up and throw away the key. I miss her)
Anyway....
Stay safe.

Kurdish victims of Sarin gas 1988
The National Review published an article last Wednesday making the case that there were, in fact, weapons of mass destruction in Iraq when Bush II invaded that country. Enough biological material to pretty much destroy the world was already produced or had nearly finished the production process and was ready to be used. Hussein had done it before. He had killed people with biological weapons. Why would anyone believe that he wouldn't do it again?
That story is here.
It is backed up by about 1000 pages of research that you can find here.
You can draw your own conclusions.
I found it interesting at the time that Bush II had nearly unanimous congressional support for the invasion of Iraq based on intelligence claiming that Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction. I also found it interesting how quickly those same supporters turned on him when those weapons weren't immediately discovered when we invaded Iraq. Definitely not the kind of people I'd trust to have my back.
Saddam Hussein was a bad man. He was a man who murdered hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of his own people in his quest for power and control. He was a bad man in the same way that Hitler, Stalin, Lenin, Pol Pot, Che Guevara, etc. were bad men. He was a threat to the region and a threat to the world. He needed to be destroyed.
The world today is full of bad men (and women) who are just as willing as the bad men mentioned above to kill any people who get in the way of their quest to control everyone and everything in this world.
What drives a person to want to have control over another? To determine who lives and who dies?
What does one gain by controlling the world?
Do these people want to be glorified? To have statues and monuments erected in their honor? To have people do their bidding and to bow at their feet?
Hasn't history taught them anything? Don't they realize that they are destined to failure?
Our society is collapsing around us and all we do is initiate more programs exactly like the programs that brought us to this place in order to perpetuate the decline.
Why?
SFMEDIC has a blog post today that explains the mechanics of how we got to where we're at today. Now, to figure out the mentality that got us here. Personally, I believe it to be greed and ego. Entitlement. Arrogance. Cold hearted prickishness. The desire to have the proles worship at one's feet.
Take a moment and go see what Curtis has to say. He has an interesting letter to share. The people we elect to lead us are mentally detached from reality.
Check out Brock's blog to read about racism in the halls of power. Oh, wait! They can't be racists.
That's enough for now.
